The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 19.3% and (262.1)%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to the non-recurrence of the prior year tax benefit related to the Purification and Filtration divestiture, as well as an unfavorable geographic mix of earnings.
The Company’s income tax provision or benefit for the interim periods is determined based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. Because significant foreign earnings are generated by the Company’s subsidiaries organized in jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates, the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate may be materially impacted if earnings in these lower-tax jurisdictions fluctuate.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes these assets are more likely than not to be realized based on an evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence. On the basis of this evaluation, the Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount realizable.
