| INCOME TAXES                                 | INCOME TAXESThe effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks endedMay 6, 2018 and April 30, 2017 were 17.1% and 17.0%, respectively. The effective income tax rates for the thirteen weeks endedMay 6, 2018 and April 30, 2017 were lower than the applicable United States statutory income tax rate due to the benefit of overall lower tax rates in certain international jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns. The Company files income tax returns in more than 40 international jurisdictions each year. Most of the international jurisdictions in which the Company files tax returns had lower statutory income tax rates than the United States statutory income tax rate in 2017 prior to enactment of the United States Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Legislation”). A substantial amount of the Company’s earnings come from international operations, particularly in the Netherlands and Hong Kong. The lower statutory income tax rates in these jurisdictions, irrespective of Tax Legislation, coupled with special rates levied on income from certain of the Company’s jurisdictional activities, significantly reduced the Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate during 2017 and 2018. As a result of the Tax Legislation, the United States statutory income tax rate was reduced from 35.0% to 21.0% effective January 1, 2018. However, the reduction in the United States statutory income tax rate did not have a significant impact on the Company’s overall effective tax rate due to its mix of earnings.The Tax Legislation significantly revised the United States tax code by, among other things, (i) reducing the corporate income tax rate from 35.0% to 21.0%, (ii) imposing a one-time transition tax on earnings of foreign subsidiaries deemed to be repatriated, (iii) implementing a modified territorial tax system, (iv) introducing a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations (known as “GILTI”) and (v) introducing a base erosion anti-abuse tax measure (known as “BEAT”) that taxes certain payments between United States corporations and their subsidiaries. The Company recorded a provisional net tax benefit of $52.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017, which included a $265.0 million benefit primarily from the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities to the lower United States corporate income tax rate, partially offset by a $38.5 million valuation allowance on the Company’s foreign tax credits and a $173.7 million transition tax on undistributed post-1986 earnings and profits of foreign subsidiaries deemed to be repatriated. The Company’s estimates were recorded on a provisional basis and are subject to adjustment in 2018 under the permitted measurement period. The Company will finalize its accounting related to the impacts of the Tax Legislation on the one-time transition tax liability, deferred taxes, valuation allowances, state tax considerations, and any remaining outside basis differences in the Company’s foreign subsidiaries during 2018. As the Company completes its analysis of the Tax Legislation, collects and prepares necessary data and interprets any additional guidance issued by the United States Department of the Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service and other standard-setting bodies, the Company may make adjustments during 2018 to these provisional amounts recorded in 2017. There were no adjustments made to these provisional amounts during the thirteen weeks endedMay 6, 2018. |
