Under the Internal Revenue Code and state law, certain substantial changes in the Company’s ownership could result in an annual limitation on the amount of these tax carryforwards which can be utilized in future years. As of January 2, 2021, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, the Company had a valuation allowance of $7.6 million, $3.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for state research and development credit carryforwards and certain foreign deferred tax assets for which the Company believes do not meet the "more likely than not" criteria for recognition.
