Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 29, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $5.8 million and $4.2 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of (8.2%) and 36.5%, respectively. For the six months ended September 29, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company recorded $9.3 million and $7.0 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of (13.5%) and 35.7%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 29, 2018, compared with the same periods of 2017, was primarily due to costs related to the Exchange for which no tax benefit can be recognized which included non-deductible equity-based compensation.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 29, 2018 differs from the federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0%, due primarily to the effect of non-deductible expenses, state and local income taxes, one-time charges related to the Exchange and results in foreign jurisdictions and non-taxable entities. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 differed from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the effect of non-deductible expenses, state and local income taxes and results in foreign jurisdictions and non-taxable entities.

The Company has not completed its accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) which was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, required companies to pay a one-time transition tax on all offshore earnings that were previously tax deferred and created new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As discussed in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, the accounting for the Tax Act should be completed within one year from the Tax Act enactment. During the three and six months ended September 29, 2018, the Company made no material adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at March 31, 2018. Adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at March 31, 2018 will be reflected upon the completion of the accounting for the Tax Act.

During the six months ended September 29, 2018, the Company’s uncertain tax positions decreased by $0.4 million due to the expiration of certain statutes of limitations. There was no change in the Company’s uncertain tax positions during the three months ended September 29, 2018. The Company estimates that the expected change to the total amount of uncertain tax benefits in the next twelve months will be a decrease of $0.2 million due to the expiration of certain statutes of limitations. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. Net interest expense for the periods presented herein was not significant.
