Note 14 – Income Taxes

At the end of each interim period, the Company makes an estimate of the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to unusual or infrequent items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or income tax contingencies is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in respective jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realizability of deferred tax assets generated in the current year. Jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year for which no tax benefit can be recognized due to a valuation allowance are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the composition and timing of actual earnings compared to annual projections. The estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as our tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective income tax rate changes, the effect of the change on prior interim periods is included in the income tax provision in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

Income tax expense was $2,057 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 on earnings before income tax of $2,534, representing an effective tax rate of 81.2%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. Federal statutory rate and the unfavorable impact of global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”).

Income tax expense was $9,544 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on earnings before income tax of $28,420, representing an effective tax rate of 33.6%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. Federal statutory rate, the quarterly accrual for uncertain tax positions and the unfavorable impact of the GILTI, partially offset by certain favorable tax effects of equity vesting.

Income tax expense was $4,269 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 on earnings before income tax of $4,618, representing an effective tax rate of 92.4%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the unfavorable impact of GILTI, unfavorable tax effects of equity vesting and a valuation allowance established in the U.S. related to a capital loss carryforward.

Income tax expense was $13,086 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 on earnings before income tax of $46,747, representing an effective tax rate of 28.0%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. Federal statutory rate, the quarterly accrual for uncertain tax positions and the unfavorable impact of the GILTI, partially offset by a one-time benefit related to the Alfmeier acquisition.

Subsequent Events

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple

effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. We are currently in the process of determining the impact the implementation of these provisions will have on the Company’s results of operations, cash flow or financial condition.

In addition, on July 19, 2025, the Act for an Immediate Tax Investment Programme to Strengthen Germany's Business Location (“German Tax Package”) was enacted in Germany. The German Tax Package includes significant provisions, including a gradual reduction in the corporate tax rate from 15% in 2027 to 10% by 2032, in 1% increments beginning in 2028, enhanced depreciation provisions and expanded relief for research and development expenses.We are currently in the process of determining the impact the implementation of these provisions will have on the Company’s results of operations, cash flow or financial condition.
