NOTE 12 — INCOME TAXES

The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $0.4 million and expense of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and a benefit of $4.2 million and expense of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the income tax benefit was primarily attributable to the net loss for the period and a favorable provision to return reconciliation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the income tax expense was primarily attributable to adjustments of the Company's valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax asset (“DTA”) relating to U.S. disallowed interest expense carryforwards partially offset by the benefit attributable to the net loss for the period.

We regularly assess the need for a valuation allowance against our DTAs. In making that assessment, we consider both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of the DTAs as well as the nature of the deferred tax attribute to determine, based on the weight of available evidence, whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the DTAs will not be realized. The Company's ability to realize its DTAs is dependent on generating sufficient future taxable income. In the current period, an adjusted cumulative pretax loss has been determined based on a 12-quarter look-back period and is considered significant negative evidence under ASC 740. As a result, management concluded that it is still more likely than not that certain DTAs will not be realized. Although on a forecasted future income planning basis, we believe the Company may be able to utilize these DTAs, this positive factor is not enough to overcome the overall cumulative loss indication. The recognition of a valuation allowance is a significant estimate and a future change in judgment or circumstances could result in a material change to the valuation allowance and income tax expense. We will continue to monitor the need for a valuation allowance against our DTAs on a quarterly basis.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was 13.5% and (8.0)%, respectively. The effective income tax rate in both periods is primarily the result of the discrete items noted above.
