Note 12. INCOME TAXES

As a limited partnership, we are not subject to federal and state income taxes. However, our corporate subsidiaries are subject to income taxes. Income tax attributable to our taxable income (including any dividend income from our corporate subsidiaries), which may differ significantly from income for financial statement purposes, is assessed at the individual limited partner unitholder level. We are subject to a statutory requirement that non-qualifying income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, cannot exceed 10% of total gross income for the calendar year. If non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, we would be taxed as a corporation. The non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit in any annual period.

Certain activities that generate non-qualifying income are conducted through our wholly owned taxable corporate subsidiaries. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized on the earnings of these subsidiaries. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates.

We recorded income tax expense (benefit) of $2.9 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and $3.2 million and $(1.7) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a result of the income generated (losses incurred) by our corporate subsidiaries. The effective tax rate differs from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because only our corporate subsidiaries are subject to income tax.

On July 4, 2025, H.R.1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the Act), was enacted, which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions. While certain provisions of the Act have and will continue to affect the timing of cash payments in 2025 and future years, there has not been nor do we anticipate a material impact on our financial statements.
