​ The effective income tax rate was 24.4%, 26.9% and 29.3% in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state taxes, federal and state tax credits, and nondeductible employee-related expenses. Pennsylvania House Bill 1342 made significant changes to the Commonwealth’s corporate income tax laws which included lowering the tax rate gradually from 9.99% in 2022 to 4.99% in 2031, offset by taxable income changes, inclusive of, updating market sourcing rules, and codifying the economic nexus standard. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law. This legislation includes provisions that permanently extend the expiring elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation on qualifying property placed in service after January 19, 2025, and full expensing of domestic research and development expenditures. As a result, the 2025 cash taxes decreased with no material impact to its effective tax rate. Cash paid for federal income taxes was $13.8 million, $34.4 million and $23.0 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Cash paid for state income taxes was $7.0 million, $8.7 million and $20.8 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
