12.Income Taxes

 

We recorded an income tax benefit of $1.2 million for the fiscal 2026 second quarter, compared to an income tax expense of $85,000 in the fiscal 2025 second quarter. The effective tax rates for these periods were 26.9% and (4.5%), respectively. The fiscal 2025 second quarter reflected an income tax expense despite a pretax loss due to the effective tax rate annualization method. For the first half of fiscal 2026, we recorded income tax benefits of $2.0 million compared to $731,000 in the prior-year period, with effective tax rates of 23.7% and 10.8%, respectively. The differences in the rates reflect the impacts of favorable tax adjustments, specifically the cash surrender value gain of company-owned life insurance, over expected pretax income in fiscal 2025 as opposed to an expected pretax loss in fiscal 2026 under the annualization method.
