Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company estimates an annual effective income tax rate based on projected results for the year and applies this rate to income before taxes to calculate income tax expense. Any refinements made due to subsequent information that affects the estimated annual effective income tax rate are reflected as adjustments in the current period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s income tax expense was $408 and $28, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate was primarily attributed to the application of research and development credits and the change in the valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are "more likely than not" of being sustained. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $9,750 of unrecognized tax benefits. Interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as tax expense within the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company and its subsidiaries file U.S. federal income tax returns and various state, local and foreign income tax returns. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s statutes of limitations are open for all federal and state tax returns filed after the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Net operating loss ("NOL") and credit carryforwards for all years are subject to examination and adjustments for the three years following the year in which the carryforwards are utilized. The Company is not currently under Internal Revenue Service or state examination.
Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383, the utilization of NOLs and other tax attributes may be substantially limited due to cumulative changes in ownership greater than 50% that may have occurred or could occur during applicable testing periods. The Company has performed an analysis through December 31, 2025 and determined no such ownership change had occurred. If such an ownership change were to occur subsequent to December 2025, the Company's ability to use its NOLs and research and development tax credit carryforwards may be materially limited.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law enacting significant changes to U.S. tax and related laws. Some of the provisions of the new tax law affecting corporations include but are not limited to expensing of domestic research expenses, increasing the limit of the business interest expense deduction to thirty percent of EBITDA, and permitting one hundred percent bonus depreciation on eligible property acquired after January 19, 2025. The
impact of the tax law changes from the OBBBA is included in the Company's financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026. There has been no material change to the Company's effective income tax rate or its net deferred federal income tax assets as a result of the OBBBA as the Company maintains a full valuation allowance for all U.S. deferred tax assets.
