Income Taxes
The variation between the Company’s effective income tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 35 percent is primarily due to the consolidation of its foreign operations, which are subject to income taxes at lower statutory rates. A change in the mix of pretax income from these various tax jurisdictions can have a significant impact on the Company’s periodic effective tax rate.

Under U.S. GAAP, a two-step approach is followed to recognize and measure uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is cumulatively more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement.
At June 26, 2011, the Company had recorded $7.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits. During the six months ended December 25, 2011, there were no changes to that amount of recognized tax benefits. As a result, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 25, 2011 is $7.0 million. If any portion of this $7.0 million is recognized, the Company will then include that portion in the computation of its effective tax rate. Although the ultimate timing of the resolution and/or closure of audits is highly uncertain, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that approximately $2.6 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months.
The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line item in the consolidated statements of income. As of December 25, 2011, the Company had accrued $58 thousand of interest and penalties.
The Company files U.S. federal, U.S. state, and foreign tax returns. For U.S. federal purposes, the Company is generally no longer subject to tax examinations for fiscal years ended June 29, 2008 and prior. For foreign purposes, the Company is generally no longer subject to examination for tax periods 2001 and prior. Certain carryforward tax attributes generated in prior years remain subject to examination and adjustment. For U.S. state tax returns, the Company is generally no longer subject to tax examinations for fiscal years prior to 2008. The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal 2009. The Company is also currently under inquiry by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department for fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2010.
