Income Taxes Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for interim periods is based on an estimate of the annual effective tax rate adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. Management judgment is required in projecting ordinary income to estimate the Company’s annual effective tax rate.
The effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2020, was 51.1% compared to 26.0% for the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019. The year-over-year effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a change in the projection of the Company's annual income in the current fiscal quarter. This change resulted in the reversal of the impact from the net operating loss (“NOL”) carryback that was estimated in the first quarter as a result of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) that was enacted on March 27, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The effective tax rate for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, was 16.5%, compared to 26.8% for the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019. The year-over-year effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to the relative impact of permanent and discrete items in the current-year period compared to the prior-year period, primarily as a result of stock-based compensation.
