  1. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss is as follows:

Pension liability – net of tax12,661(12,924)
Postretirement obligations – net of tax1,5731,675
Split-dollar life insurance arrangements – net of tax526553
Derivatives qualifying as hedges – net of tax(1,919)3,804
Accumulated other comprehensive loss$(21,101)$(39,677)

The deferred taxes related to the adjustments associated with the items included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of deferred tax asset valuation allowances, were $(6,530,121), $636,000, and $(6,371,000) for fiscal 2025, 2024, and 2023 respectively. Refer to Note 17 for discussion of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. In the period subsequent to our initial recording of the valuation allowance in fiscal 2011, increases and decreases to both the deferred tax assets associated with items in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and the valuation allowance, have been recorded as offsets to comprehensive income.

As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "TCJA"), the Company recorded as an offsetting entry a $(7,251,000) stranded tax effect in the minimum pension liability component and a $(194,000) stranded tax effect in the split dollar life insurance arrangement component of other comprehensive income in fiscal 2018. As a result of the pension termination in fiscal 2025, $(7,050,000) of the stranded tax effect was released from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a decrease of income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. The resulting stranded tax effect of $201,000 relates to the Company's remaining U.S. pension plan. The stranded tax effect related to the other post retirement obligations component was not material.

As a result of the recording of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance in fiscal 2011, the Company recorded as an offsetting entry a $7,605,000 stranded tax effect in the minimum pension liability component, $935,000 stranded tax effect in the other post retirement obligations component and a $747,000 stranded tax effect in the split dollar life insurance arrangement component of other comprehensive income. With the reversal of that valuation allowance in fiscal 2013, the Company recorded the reversal of the valuation allowance as a reduction of income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. As a result of the pension termination in fiscal 2025, the stranded tax effect of $7,605,000 was released from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a decrease of income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations.

As a result of the recording of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance in fiscal 2005, the Company recorded as an offsetting entry a $406,000 stranded tax effect in the minimum pension liability component of other comprehensive income. With the reversal of that valuation allowance in fiscal 2006, the Company recorded the reversal of the valuation allowance as a reduction of income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. As a result of the pension termination in fiscal 2025, the stranded tax effect of $406,000 was released from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a decrease of income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations.

The stranded tax effects described above are in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” even though the impact of the TCJA and the deferred tax asset valuation allowance described above were initially established as an adjustment to comprehensive income. This amount will remain indefinitely as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
