Loss before income taxes includes the following components:
The (recoveries) expense for income taxes consists of:
A reconciliation of income taxes at the statutory rate with the reported taxes is as follows:
The following table summarizes the components of deferred tax:
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted on December 22, 2017 and reduced the U.S. statutory federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and introduced several new international tax provisions, including the tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (‘‘GILTI’’). The Company has made a policy decision to record GILTI tax as a current-period expense when incurred.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted, which extended and modified certain provisions of the TCJA, including bonus depreciation and interest expense limitations. As the enactment occurred after the Company’s fiscal year-end, the impact of the OBBBA is not reflected in these Financial Statements. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of the new legislation on future periods but does not expect a material impact to the Financial Statements.
Deferred income taxes have not been recorded on the basis differences for investments in consolidated subsidiaries as these basis differences are indefinitely reinvested or will reverse in a non-taxable manner. Quantification of the deferred income tax liability, if any, associated with indefinitely reinvested basis differences is not practicable. Deferred income taxes have been recorded on the basis differences for investments in nonconsolidated entities.
As of May 31, 2025, the Company had generated net operating loss carry-forwards in the United States of approximately $314,512, which can be carried forward indefinitely and are generally limited in use annually to 80% of the current year taxable income, starting 2021. The Company has generated net operating loss carry-forwards in Canada of approximately $1,544,987, which can be carried forward for 20 years and begin to expire in 2028. Management believes that it is more-likely-than-not that the benefit from certain United States and foreign net operating loss carry-forwards will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, the Company has provided a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets relating to these carry-forwards. The net change in the total valuation allowance was an increase of $179,090 and $164,471 for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance was primarily a result of current year losses.
The Company recognizes the financial statement impact of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the Financial Statements is the largest impact that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits (“GUTB”) was and as of May 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively. There is a reasonable possibility that the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits will change within twelve months due to audit settlements or the expiration of statute of limitations, but the Company does not expect the change to be material to Financial Statements.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties for any uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties are recorded as a component of income tax expenses. In the fiscal years ended May 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded approximately and respectively, of interest and penalty expenses related to uncertain tax positions. As of May 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company had a cumulative balance of accrued interest and penalties on unrecognized tax positions of and respectively.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to United States federal income tax as well as the income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Major jurisdictions where there are wholly owned subsidiaries of Tilray Brands, Inc. which require income tax filings include Canada, Portugal, Germany, and Australia. The earliest periods open for review by local taxing authorities are fiscal years for Canada, for Portugal, for Germany, for Australia, and for United States. |
