Income Taxes
Note 13 – Income Taxes
Income Tax Expense. The effective tax rate of 16.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was lower than the effective tax rate of 19.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by tax benefits related to equity investments and the absence of prior-period charges related to state tax audits. The effective tax rate of 17.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was higher than the effective tax rate of 17.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the absence of a prior-period benefit related to the HCSC transaction, partially offset by the absence of prior-period charges related to state tax audits.
