Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] INCOME TAXES
Our income tax expense was $6.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025. Included in this was a net tax expense of $0.3 million discretely related to the nine months ended June 30, 2025.
Our effective tax rate will vary based on a variety of factors. These factors include our overall profitability, the geographical mix of income before taxes and related statutory tax rate in each jurisdiction, and tax items discretely related to the period, such as tax impacts of stock compensation. We may record other benefits or expenses in the future that are specific to a particular quarter such as expiration of statutes of limitation, the completion of tax audits, or legislation that is enacted in both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law in the U.S., which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. We are currently assessing its impact on our consolidated financial statements.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is (in thousands):
Unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2024
$3,602 
Decreases related to:
Prior year income tax positions(91)
Expiration of statute of limitations(57)
Unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025
$3,454 
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2025 that, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate was $3.3 million, after considering the impact of interest and deferred benefit items. We expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $0.4 million over the next 12 months.
