Note 10 – Income taxes

 

Income taxes were recognized at effective rates of 29.1% and 30.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Income taxes were recognized at effective rates of 30.3% and 31.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in the Company’s effective tax rate is primarily driven by changes in the amount of non-deductible officer compensation and non-deductible stock-based compensation expense.

 

The Company calculates the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full year, excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items, and applies that rate to income (loss) before provision for income taxes for the period.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate may change from period to period based on recurring and non-recurring factors including the relative mix of pre-tax earnings (or losses), the jurisdictional mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, state income taxes, the impact of non-deductible items, changes in valuation allowances, settlement of tax audits, and the expiration of the statute of limitations in relation to unrecognized tax benefits. The Company records discrete income tax items such as enacted tax rate changes and completed tax audits in the period in which they occur.

 

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law, which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions that may affect the Company's financial results. The OBBBA changes to corporate taxation include, but are not limited to, 100% bonus depreciation for purchases of qualified property, an elective deduction for domestic research and experimental expenditures, changes to the definition of adjusted taxable income for purposes of determining the interest deduction limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 163(j), and a more favorable tax rate on Foreign-Derived Deduction Eligible Income and income from non-U.S. subsidiaries (Net CFC Tested Income). The OBBBA does not have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate or cash flows in the current fiscal year.
