On January 26, 2026, the Company completed a redomiciliation to the United States, which resulted in a change in the applicable statutory income tax rate from the U.K. rate of 25% to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%.
The Company's income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 of 24% and 23%, respectively differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily driven by a U.K. global minimum top-up tax, disallowed expenses, and a write-off of U.K. Net Operating Losses, partially offset by U.K. innovation deductions.

The Company's income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 of 71% differs from the U.K. federal statutory rate of 25%, primarily due to a tax reserve on a U.K. HMRC settlement which became probable during the quarter, partially offset by U.K. innovation deductions. The HMRC settlement relates to aspects of prior years' intercompany financing arrangements and is not expected to impact our future tax rates.
The Company's income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 of 46% differs from the U.K. federal statutory rate of 25%, primarily due to a tax reserve on a U.K. HMRC settlement which became probable during the quarter, U.K. global minimum top-up tax, share based compensation shortfall tax expense and a valuation allowance against corporate interest limitation carryforwards, partially offset by U.K. innovation deductions and intragroup financing transactions.

Resolution of the related tax positions with the relevant tax authorities may take many years to complete, and such timing is not entirely within the Company's control.
