11. Income Taxes

The Company computes its tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2025 by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income from recurring operations and adjusting for discrete items arising in that quarter.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was 22.4% and 32.8%, respectively. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% in the above periods was primarily the result of permanent differences for disallowed stock-based compensation pursuant to Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 162(m), state taxes and discrete benefits for excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation. In 2024, it was primarily the result of permanent differences for disallowed stock-based compensation pursuant to IRC Section 162(m), state taxes and the impact of the full valuation allowance that has since been released.

The Company forecasts an estimated effective tax rate in 2025, exclusive of discrete benefits, of 27%, which primarily differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate due to state taxes and permanent differences on nondeductible compensation.
