The Company expects to repatriate a portion of its foreign earnings based on increased net sales growth driving additional capital requirements domestically, cash requirements for potential acquisitions and to implement certain tax strategies. The Company currently expects to repatriate approximately $13.0 million of foreign earnings in the future. As such, these earnings would be recognized in the United States, and the Company would be subject to U.S. federal income taxes and potential withholding taxes in foreign jurisdictions. Both the domestic tax and estimated withholding tax of expected repatriation of foreign earnings have been recorded as part of deferred taxes as of April 1, 2017. All other unremitted foreign earnings are expected to remain permanently reinvested for planned fixed assets purchases and improvements in foreign locations.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company signed a unilateral advance pricing agreement (APA) with the Large Taxpayer Division of Mexico’s Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT) under an elective framework that has been agreed to by the U.S. and Mexican authorities. The APA is part of a larger program affecting hundreds of U.S. companies with maquiladora operations in Mexico. The general impact of the APA is to increase margins between the maquiladora and U.S. parent company, shifting profits to Mexico from the U.S.
As a result of the APA, the Company anticipates that it will have an increased tax liability in Mexico of approximately $0.4 million related to the calendar years 2014-2016. However, the increased costs to the U.S. will result in a reduced tax liability of approximately $0.4 million in the U.S. during fiscal year 2017. The overall net impact of the APA is therefore estimated to not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial results. The estimated increased liabilities in Mexico and related offsetting tax benefit in the U.S. have been recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. Currently, the Company anticipates that the APA will be finalized during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017.
Further, the resulting impact of the APA resulted in approximately $1.8 million of additional earnings being recognized in Mexico. The Company has reevaluated its repatriation assumptions and based on new customer growth in Mexico and related required capital expenditures, it is assumed that 50 percent of the additional $1.8 million in earnings will be permanently reinvested in Mexico.
The Company has available approximately $7.3 million of gross federal research and development tax credits as of April 1, 2017. ASC 740 requires the Company to recognize in its financial statements uncertainties in tax positions taken that may not be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Accordingly, as of April 1, 2017, the Company has recorded $3.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits associated with these federal tax credits, resulting in a net deferred tax benefit of approximately $3.4 million.
