| INCOME TAX | NOTE 6 - INCOME TAX Income tax expense for interim periods is recognized based on the annualized effective tax rate expected for the full year adjusted for the tax effect of certain items recognized in full in the interim period. Our effective tax rate was 30.8% and 35.7% of our income before tax for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 29.1% and 37.6% of income before tax for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The difference between the statutory tax rate of 25.8% and the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 includes an estimate of the 2026 and 2025 surtaxes in France, the Base Erosion Anti Abuse Tax in the United States and is impacted by the geographical mix of our pre-tax results and the effects of certain jurisdictions where a full valuation allowance is recorded.
