NOTE 10: INCOME TAXES

The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 26.1%. The difference between this and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% is primarily due to non-deductible expenses, Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI), which was enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and state and foreign tax rates.

The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 84.6%. The difference between this and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% is primarily due to the mix of earnings between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, as well as the Company increasing its valuation allowance in connection with the deferred tax asset related to the interest limitation under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code. Other factors impacting the rate include non-deductible expenses, and GILTI, which was enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

The Company did not record any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits or total interest and penalties for tax years remaining open to examination during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Currently, there are not any ongoing audits or examinations with any tax jurisdictions.

In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) released Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion model rules (“Pillar Two Rules”), designed to ensure large corporations are taxed at a minimum rate of 15.0% in all countries of operation. On June 20, 2024, as part of Bill C-69, Canada enacted its Pillar Two legislation effective January 1, 2024. Canada Bill C-59 was also enacted on June 20, 2024 and included the excessive interest and financing expenses limitation (“EIFEL”) regime effective for tax years beginning on or after December 31, 2023. The Company has performed a quantitative and qualitative assessment and determined the effects are not materially significant to the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31,

2024 respectively. StandardAero will continue to evaluate Pillar Two and EIFEL for their potential impact on future periods as further legislation is proposed or enacted
