| Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company projects the estimated annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020 to be 27.0%, excluding the tax effect of discrete events. Potential discrete adjustments include tax charges or benefits related to stock-based compensation, changes in tax legislation, settlements of tax audits and changes in uncertain tax positions, among others. The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations was 21.5% and 15.9% for the thirteen weeks ended May 2, 2020 and May 4, 2019, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 differs from our annual effective tax rate primarily due to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the first quarter which reduced the effective tax rate by 3.7% and increase of prior year enhanced charitable contributions in the same period which reduced the effective tax rate by 1.6%. We are subject to taxation in the U.S. federal and various state taxing jurisdictions. In general, the Company’s tax years from 2015 forward remain open and subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various state taxing authorities.
