Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act significantly revised the U.S. tax code by, among other things, (i) reducing the federal corporate income tax rate, effective January 1, 2018, from 35% to 21%, (ii) imposing a one-time transition tax on earnings of foreign subsidiaries deemed to be repatriated and (iii) implementing a modified territorial tax system.

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”). This update provides guidance on income tax accounting implications under the Tax Act. SAB 118 addressed the application of GAAP to situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act and allows companies to record provisional amounts during a remeasurement period not to exceed one year after the enactment date while the accounting impact remains under analysis.

The Company has reasonably estimated the impact of the Tax Act in its fiscal 2017 provision for income taxes in accordance with its interpretation of the Tax Act and available guidance. The Tax Act resulted in a net unfavorable tax impact of approximately $10.5 million recorded in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2017.

During the three and six months ended September 1, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to previously recorded provisional amounts related to the Tax Act. The provisional amounts are related to the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax assets and the transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings, which collectively totaled approximately $26.8 million. The Company believes the remeasurement of its net deferred tax assets is complete, except for changes in estimates that can result from finalizing the filing of its 2017 U.S. income tax return and changes that may be a direct impact of other provisional amounts due to the enactment of the Tax Act. The estimated transition tax was recorded based on the Company’s initial evaluation of the impact of the Tax Act and is subject to change during fiscal 2018 as the Company continues to refine, analyze and update the underlying data, computations and assumptions used to prepare this provisional amount during the measurement period. In addition, these estimates may be impacted as the Company further analyzes available tax accounting methods and elections, and state tax conformity to the federal tax changes and guidance issued by regulatory bodies that provide interpretive guidance of the Tax Act. Any adjustments to the provisional amounts will be recognized as a component of the provision for income taxes in the period in which such adjustments are determined within the annual period following the enactment of the Tax Act. Additionally, the Company continues to evaluate the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions of the Tax Act and the impact, if any, on its consolidated financial statements. As a result, the Company has not included any amount related to GILTI in its consolidated financial statements as of September 1, 2018.
