The tax provision for the third quarter ended November 29, 2014 included $3 of discrete tax benefits primarily due to the pension settlement charge as described further in Note 9—Benefit Plans. The tax provision for the year-to-date period ended November 29, 2014 included $7 of discrete tax benefits, primarily related to state audit settlements and the pension settlement charge, and $2 of discrete tax expenses. The tax provision for the third quarter ended November 30, 2013 did not include any discrete tax items. The tax benefit for the year-to-date period ended November 30, 2013 included $2 of discrete tax benefits and $2 of discrete tax expenses.
During the year-to-date period ended November 29, 2014, unrecognized tax benefits increased $5 to $81. The Company does not anticipate that its total unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months.
The Company recognized $69 of net discrete tax benefits in the third quarter ended November 29, 2014 primarily related to tangible property repairs regulations and other deduction-related changes within Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other current assets and Long-term tax liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company amended its prior year federal tax return and plans to amend certain state tax returns to reflect these deduction-related changes. Refer to Note 14—Discontinued Operations for additional information.
As of November 29, 2014, the Company is no longer subject to federal income tax examinations for fiscal years prior to 2011 and in most states is no longer subject to state income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2006.
