The Company’s income before income taxes in 2025, 2024 and 2023 includes $19.4 million, $27.3 million and $42.5 million, respectively, of foreign income attributable to its Canadian subsidiary. The tax effects of certain transactions are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity rather than income tax expense. The tax effect of fair value adjustments on securities available-for-sale and derivative instruments in cash flow hedges are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity as part of other comprehensive income (loss) and are reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The tax effect of unrealized gains and losses on certain foreign currency transactions is also recorded in shareholders’ equity as part of other comprehensive income (loss). A reconciliation of the differences between taxes computed using the statutory Federal income tax rate and actual income tax expense is as follows:

Management has determined that a valuation allowance is not required for the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025 because it is more likely than not that these assets could be realized through future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies and future taxable income. This conclusion is based on the Company’s historical earnings, its current level of earnings and prospects for continued growth and profitability. The Company has Federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $1.9 million that begin to expire in 2029 through 2035 and are subject to IRC Section 382 annual limitation. The NOL carryforwards were a result of acquisitions. The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” At December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. If the Company were to record interest or penalties associated with uncertain tax positions, the interest or penalties would be included in income tax expense. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in numerous state jurisdictions and in Canada. In the ordinary course of business, we are routinely subject to audit by the taxing authorities of these jurisdictions. Currently, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns are open and subject to audit for the 2022 tax return year forward, and in general, the Company’s state income tax returns are open and subject to audit from the 2022 tax return year forward, subject to individual state statutes of limitation. The Company has extended the statute of limitations on certain state income tax returns for tax years 2017 through 2021 due to an ongoing audit. The Company’s Canadian subsidiary’s Canadian income tax returns are also subject to audit for the 2022 tax return year forward. The income taxes paid by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 is summarized as follows:
