Management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the net deferred tax assets.     

The Company is entitled to a deduction for federal and state tax purposes with respect to employees’ stock award activity. The net deduction in taxes otherwise payable arising from that deduction has been recorded as an income tax benefit. For 2020, 2019 and 2018, the net deduction in tax payable arising from employees’ stock award activity was $12,258,000, $8,067,000 and $4,154,000, respectively.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, California and various other state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to United States federal income tax examination for years prior to 2017. The Company is no longer subject to California franchise tax examinations for years prior to 2016. The California Franchise Tax Board is currently examining the Company’s 2017 and 2018 returns. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and local or non-United States income tax examination by tax authorities for years prior to 2016.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

 

Balance at December 28, 2018

 

$

1,748,000

 

Additions based on tax positions related to the current year

 

 

515,000

 

Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations

 

 

(340,000

)

Balance at January 3, 2020

1,923,000

 

Additions based on tax positions related to the current year

Reductions due to lapse of statute of limitations

 

 

(325,000

)

Balance at January 1, 2021

 

$

1,873,000

 

 

Unrecognized tax benefits are included in other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. To the extent these unrecognized tax benefits are ultimately recognized, they will impact the effective tax rate by $1,514,000 in a future period. There are no uncertain tax positions whose resolution in the next 12 months is expected to materially affect operating results.
