Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Company elected to change its interim income tax reporting methodology from the income statement method to the balance sheet method and will apply this method consistently for the remainder of the fiscal year. The change was made because significant unrealized losses on derivative instruments recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 are expected to reverse in future periods, and use of the income statement method would have caused a disproportionate amount of the related tax benefit to be recognized in the first quarter. Under the balance sheet method, interim income tax expense is based on changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period, which the Company believes more appropriately reflects the allocation of the annual effective tax rate between current and deferred income tax expense. This change affects only the allocation of the interim income tax expense between current and deferred income tax expense and does not affect the Company’s full-year effective tax rate or total quarterly income tax expense.
