Note 7. Income Taxes
The Company generally calculates its effective income tax rate at the end of an interim period using an estimate of the annualized effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. However, when a reliable estimate of the annualized effective income tax rate cannot be made, the Company computes its provision for income taxes using the actual effective income tax rate for the results of operations reported within the year-to-date periods. The Company’s effective income tax rate is highly influenced by relative income or losses reported and from the results of international operations. A small change in estimated annual pretax income can produce a significant variance in the annualized effective income tax rate given the expected amount of these items. As a result, the Company has computed its provision for income taxes for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 by applying the actual effective tax rates to income or reported within the condensed consolidated financial statements through those periods. The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, included a non-recurring adjustment for unrecognized tax benefits related to foreign taxes of $31,000. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded a $71,000 adjustment for unrecognized tax benefits related to foreign taxes.
On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) into law, which is considered the enactment date under U.S. GAAP. This legislation introduces several provisions affecting businesses, including the permanent extension of certain expiring elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework, and favorable tax treatment for certain other business provisions. Key corporate tax provisions include existing 21% corporate income tax rate made permanent, the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation, immediate expensing for domestic research and experimental expenditures, changes to Section 163(j) interest limitations, updates to Global Intangible Low Tax Income (GILTI) and Foreign- Derived Intangible Income (FDII) rules, amendments to energy credits, and expanded Section 162(m) aggregation requirements. The OBBBA contains multiple effective dates, with some provisions applicable beginning in 2026. The legislation does not impact the Company’s prior years’ financial statements. |
