INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2015 and August 3, 2014 were 19.0% and (0.8)%, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2015 and August 3, 2014 were 20.8% and 4.5%, respectively.
The effective income tax rates for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2015 and August 3, 2014 were lower than the United States statutory rate principally due to the benefit of lower tax rates in international jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns. In addition, the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2014 include the favorable resolution of uncertain tax positions approximating $24.0 million in international jurisdictions, and the favorable resolution of $6.0 million of an uncertain tax position related to European and United States transfer pricing arrangements.
