The Company recognized income tax benefit of $0.5 million on a pre-tax loss of $0.6 million, or an effective tax rate benefit of 80.4%, for the 13 weeks ended September 24, 2017, compared to income tax expense of $1.0 million on pre-tax income of $2.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 34.2%, for the 13 weeks ended September 25, 2016. The Company recognized income tax expense of $0.3 million on pre-tax income of $0.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 33.5%, for the 39 weeks ended September 24, 2017, compared to income tax expense of $3.7 million on pre-tax income of $10.1 million, or an effective tax rate of 36.8%, for the 39 weeks ended September 25, 2016. The effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate primarily due to a change in earnings and the adoption of ASU 2016-09, which had an unfavorable impact to the Company’s tax rate benefit of 7.5% for the 13 weeks ended September 24, 2017 and an unfavorable impact of 38.9% for the 39 weeks ended September 24, 2017. See Note 1 for additional information regarding the adoption of ASU 2016-09.
