Cenveo Reports Decrease in Net Sales for Q4

Income tax expense was $60.1 million for the year ended December 29, 2012, compared to $9.5 million in the prior year. The increase in income tax expense is due to a non-cash charge of $56.5 million related to a valuation allowance applied to our net U.S. deferred tax assets, which primarily consists of a federal tax loss carryforward in the amount of $88.7 million that does not begin to expire until 2022. Our cash income taxes were $1.4 million for the year ended December 29, 2012, compared to $2.1 million in the prior year, and we do not expect to be a significant cash tax payer for at least the next four years.
