| Income Taxes | 7. Income Taxes. Our provision for income taxes for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was a tax expense of $10.8 million and $10.1 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 24.9% and 22.1%, respectively. Our provision for income taxes for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was a tax expense of $18.6 million and $16.2 million, respectively, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 22.9% and 20.2%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate and income tax expense for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the prior-year periods, was primarily due to decreased benefit from discrete items such as share-based compensation and contingent liabilities and increased permanent tax differences in foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the impact of global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) inclusions, state income taxes, foreign taxes, other nondeductible permanent items and discrete items (such as share-based compensation). The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two global minimum tax rules, which generally provide for a minimum effective tax rate of 15%, were intended to apply for tax years beginning in 2024. On February 2, 2023, the OECD issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Under a transitional safe harbor released July 17, 2023, the undertaxed profits rule top-up tax in the jurisdiction of a company's ultimate parent entity will be zero for each fiscal year of the transition period, if that jurisdiction has a corporate tax rate of at least 20%. The safe harbor transition period will apply to fiscal years beginning on or before December 31, 2025 and ending before December 31, 2026. While we expect our effective income tax rate and cash income tax payments could increase in future years as a result of the global minimum tax, we do not anticipate a material impact to our fiscal 2025 consolidated results of operations. Our assessment could be affected by legislative guidance and future enactment of additional provisions within the Pillar Two framework. We are closely monitoring developments and evaluating the impact these new rules are anticipated to have on our tax rate, including eligibility to qualify for these safe harbor rules. On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted a budget reconciliation package (known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” or “OBBBA”) which includes a broad range of tax provisions affecting businesses. As the legislation was signed into law after the close of our second quarter, the impacts are not included in our operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2025, in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new legislation and its impact on the consolidated financial statements. We currently do not expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate in 2025. |
