The Company is not subject to state income tax. Retained earnings at December 31, 2025 and 2024 include approximately $4,021,000 for which no deferred federal income tax liability has been recognized. This amount represents an allocation of income to bad debt deductions prior to January 1, 1988 for tax purposes only. Reduction of such allocated amounts for other than bad debt reserves would create income for tax purposes subject to the then-current income tax rate. The unrecorded deferred income tax liability on these amounts was approximately $844,000 at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Based on the evaluation of available evidence, management determined that a valuation allowance was not required for deferred tax assets because it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized through future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences and there will be sufficient future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences.
