Income Taxes
We had an effective income tax rate of 23.5% for the six months ended December 29, 2012, compared to an effective rate of 39.5% for the same period in the prior year and an effective rate of 76.4% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. The effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, was impacted by the operating losses driven by the inventory markdown during that fiscal year, lowering our U.S. taxable income while maintaining profits in the offshore taxable and tax-free jurisdictions. Based on our current projected pre-tax income and the anticipated amount of U.S. taxable income compared to profits maintained in the offshore taxable and tax-free jurisdictions, our estimated effective income tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013 is 23.5%, a 160 basis point reduction from the expected effective income tax as of September, 29, 2012.
We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for our tax years before 2008. However, net operating loss carryforwards remain subject to examination to the extent they are carried forward and impact a year that is open to examination by authorities.
