Reconciliation of Provision for Income Taxes | A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes with amounts determined by applying the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate to income before income taxes is as follows:
|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Pre-Tax Net Book Income (“NBI”) |  | $ | 6,035 |  |  | $ | 5,701 |  |  | $ | 5,697 |
Texas Margin Tax (1) |  |  | (44 | ) |  |  | (49 | ) |  |  | (56 | )

Change in valuation allowance (2) |  |  | – |  |  |  | 22 |  |  |  | (8 | )

Provision for income taxes |  | $ | (65 | ) |  | $ | (44 | ) |  | $ | (82 | )
Effective income tax rate |  |  | (1.1 | )% |  |  | (0.8 | )% |  |  | (1.4 | )%
(1) | Although the Texas Margin Tax is not considered a state income tax, it has the characteristics of an income tax since it is determined by applying a tax rate to a base that considers our Texas-sourced revenues and expenses.
(2) | During 2023, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets attributable to OTA will be fully realizable. As a result, for the year-end December 31, 2023, we recorded a full release of the valuation allowance against OTA’s deferred tax assets.
