Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rates were 25.9% and 37.8% for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. The lower effective rate for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2017 was primarily due to the recognition of excess tax benefits related to options exercised after the adoption of ASU 2016-09. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for more information regarding ASU 2016-09.
