16. Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the forty weeks ended July 6, 2011 was 27.1%, compared to 32.7% in the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due to increased federal employment tax credits combined with the majority of the gain sustained by the sale of Mustang Capital Management, L.L.C. and Mustang Capital Advisors, L.P. not being categorized as taxable income for income tax purposes.

 

As of July 6, 2011, we had approximately $1,358 of unrecognized tax benefits, which are included in Other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated Balance Sheet.
