Provision for Income Taxes
Prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Company conducted certain operations through wholly owned subsidiaries that were subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. After the consummation of the IPO, the Company is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of taxable income of Holdings LP assessed at the prevailing corporate tax rates. Holdings LP operates as a limited partnership for income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company incurs federal and state income taxes for its portion of the taxable income or loss generated by Holdings LP. The income or losses attributable to the non-controlling interest holders are not included in the Company’s federal or state income tax returns. Consequently, the tax effects of the non-controlling interests are reflected as a permanent difference in the Company’s effective tax rate reconciliation.
The Company incurred income tax expense of $0.1 million in the pre-IPO period from December 30, 2025 through May 7, 2026. For the period from May 8, 2026 through June 29, 2026, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.5 million. For the six months ended June 29, 2026, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $0.6 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $1.0 million. The Company’s effective tax rate was (3.0)% for the six months ended June 29, 2026, and (19.0)% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Significant reconciling items between this effective rate and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% are primarily related to the absence of taxes on income allocable to non-controlling interests and a full valuation allowance recorded during the six months ended June 29, 2026.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law, which contains a broad range of tax reforms that amend, eliminate, and extend various tax provisions under the expiring portions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In particular, the OBBBA contains several changes to corporate taxation including modifications to capitalization of research and development expenses, limitations on deductions for interest expense and accelerated fixed asset depreciation. The OBBBA has multiple effective dates concerning its tax provisions, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and other implemented through 2027. The Company does not expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on income taxes. The Company will continue to monitor the potential future impacts of the OBBBA, including provisions that become effective in subsequent periods, and will reflect any material changes in its accompanying consolidated financial statements
Deferred Tax Assets and Tax Receivable Agreement
The Company establishes a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets when it believes it is more likely than not that all or a portion of these deferred tax assets will not be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations.
The initial deferred tax asset and the related valuation allowance were recorded as additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In connection with the consummation of the IPO, the Company entered into the TRA with the TRA Parties, which requires the Company to pay such persons 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes that the Company realizes or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances (computed using certain assumptions) as a result of certain tax attributes and benefits covered by the TRA.
As of June 29, 2026, the total amount due under the TRA was $0.0 million.
