The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 25.2% and 24.4%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was 24.8% and 24.3%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the differences between the effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate were primarily due to state income taxes offset by other foreign adjustments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the differences between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate were primarily due to state income taxes.
Each interim period is considered an integral part of the annual period and tax expense or benefit is measured using an estimated annual effective income tax rate. The estimated annual effective tax rate for the full year is applied to the respective interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected amounts for the year. Since the Company operates in foreign countries with varying tax rates, the Company’s quarterly effective tax rate is dependent on the level of income or loss from international operations in the reporting period.
The Company’s subsidiary in Costa Rica is operating under a 100% tax holiday through August 13, 2026. The exemption under this tax holiday will decrease to 50% through August 13, 2030, and then 0% thereafter. The impact of the tax holiday in Costa Rica for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, was immaterial.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating uncertain tax positions and determining the provision for income taxes.
In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) enacted model rules for a new global minimum tax framework (“Pillar Two”). Under the Pillar Two rules, a company is required to determine a combined effective tax rate for each jurisdiction. If the jurisdictional effective tax rate determined under the Pillar Two rules is less than 15%, a top-up tax will be due to bring the jurisdictional effective tax rate up to 15%. In December 2022, European Union Member States adopted a directive implementing the Pillar Two rules requiring Member States to enact the directive into
their national laws and these began to go into effect from January 1, 2024. The Company has estimated the applicable top-up tax and recorded this in tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The estimated impact of top-up tax for the periods was immaterial.
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. The legislation features permanent extension, with modifications, of key 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions that were set to change at the end of 2025. The effects of the OBBBA were included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The OBBBA is not expected to materially impact the Company’s 2025 annual effective tax rate.
