Income Taxes

The Company’s interim effective income tax rate is based on management’s best current estimate of the Company's expected annual effective income tax rate. The Company recorded pre-tax income in the first three months of fiscal year 2025 and its corresponding effective tax rate is 29.0% compared to 31.6% for the first three months of fiscal year 2024. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2024, as compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily due to state and foreign taxes, and permanent tax adjustments.The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory federal rate of 21% primarily as a result of the impact of foreign, state, and local income taxes and permanent tax adjustments.

The Company applies the authoritative guidance related to uncertainty in income taxes. ASC 740, Income Taxes, states that a benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of technical merits. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not record any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state and local jurisdictions and in foreign jurisdictions, primarily Canada and the United Kingdom. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has no open income tax examinations in the U.S. and the statute of limitations for years prior to 2021 is now closed. However, certain tax attribute carryforwards that were generated prior to fiscal year 2021 may be adjusted upon examination by tax authorities if they are utilized.
