Income Taxes Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes primarily relates to projected federal and state income taxes calculated on the projected taxable income for the period. To determine the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is generally based on expected annual income as well as statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. In addition, the tax effects of certain significant or unusual items are recognized discretely in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

As per ASC 740-270, the Company’s interim tax provision is computed based on the estimated annual effective tax rate approach. The estimated annual effective tax rate approach is used to determine the tax related to ordinary income unless certain exceptions apply. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred taxes to the amount it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence quarterly, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. Forming a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not required is difficult when there is negative evidence such as cumulative losses in recent years. Based upon the Company’s review of all positive and negative evidence, the Company continues to have a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2026.

The Company accounts for the uncertainty in income taxes by utilizing a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure in condensed financial statements of any uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken on an income tax return. Additionally, the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized in the condensed financial statements for a particular tax position is based on the largest benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon settlement. Accordingly, the Company establishes reserves for uncertain tax positions.

There was no income tax provision for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The effective tax rate was 0% for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and differs from the statutory federal income tax rate due to the deferred tax assets being subject to a full valuation allowance.

On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA) was signed into federal law. The OBBBA included multiple provisions applicable to U.S. income tax for businesses, including bonus depreciation for qualified tangible property, immediate expensing of research expenditures, and updates to the calculation of disallowed interest. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others to be implemented through 2027. The Company evaluated the enacted provisions of the OBBBA during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and concluded that the act’s provisions do not have a material impact on the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate or condensed financial statements due to the full valuation allowance.
