INCOME TAXES	NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% in the three and six month periods ended May 3, 2015 and May 4, 2014, primarily due to earnings being taxed at lower statutory rates in foreign jurisdictions, the partial reversal of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and various investment credits in foreign jurisdictions.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% in the three and six month periods ended May 3, 2015 and May 4, 2014, primarily due to earnings being taxed at lower statutory rates in foreign jurisdictions, the partial reversal of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and various investment credits in foreign jurisdictions. Valuation allowances in jurisdictions with historic losses eliminate the effective rate impact of these jurisdictions.

As of May 3, 2015, the Company determined that deferred tax assets of $1.5 million in a foreign jurisdiction, whose realization was previously not considered to be more likely than not, are realizable and, therefore, reduced the related valuation allowance.

Unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions were $5.3 million at May 3, 2015, and $5.1 million at November 2, 2014, of which $5.2 million and $5.0 million, respectively, would, if recognized, favorably impact the Company's effective tax rate. Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits was $0.2 million at May 3, 2015, $0.1 million of which was accrued during the three month period ended May 3, 2015, and $0.1 million at November 2, 2014. As of May 3, 2015, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits is not expected to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.

PKLT, the Company's FPD manufacturing facility in Taiwan, has been accorded a tax holiday that started in 2012 and expires in 2017. The PKLT tax holiday had no dollar or per share effect on the financial results of the three or six month periods ended May 3, 2015 and May 4, 2014. PDMC, as a result of the DPTT Acquisition, acquired an IC manufacturing facility in Taiwan that has been accorded a tax holiday that commenced in 2015 and expires in 2019. The Company realized a $0.1 million tax benefit from this tax holiday for the six month period ended May 3, 2015. The tax holiday had no per share effect in the three or six month periods ended May 3, 2015 and May 4, 2014.
