The Company will continue to assess all available evidence during future periods to evaluate any changes to the realization of its deferred tax assets.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB) was signed into law, which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions that may affect the Company's financial results. The OBBB allows an elective deduction for domestic research and development, and a reinstatement of elective 100% first-year bonus depreciation, among other provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these provisions and thus far the impact to the Company’s effective tax rate in fiscal year 2025 and forward has not been material.

As a result of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Company must amortize amounts paid or incurred for specified research and development expenditures, including software development expenses, ratably over 60 months, beginning at the mid-point of the tax year in which the expenditures are paid or incurred.
