| Income Taxes | Note 8. Income Taxes LivaNova’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was 15.8% and (3.7)%, respectively. The changes in the effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the prior year period, were primarily attributable to year-over-year changes in income before income tax in countries with varying statutory tax rates, certain discrete tax items, including the SNIA environmental liability, and changes in valuation allowances. The OBBBA was enacted in the U.S. on July 4, 2025 and includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework, and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. LivaNova has accounted for the relevant changes within its annual effective tax rate and cash taxes. The Company considers all available evidence (both positive and negative) in determining whether a valuation allowance is required. Depending on operating results in the future, a release of a valuation allowance could occur within the next 12 months. The timing and amount of the valuation allowance release could vary based on the Company’s assessment of all available evidence.
