Income Taxes 12. Income taxes

 

The income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2026. The Company’s provision for income taxes is based on estimated effective tax rates derived from an estimate of annual consolidated earnings before taxes, adjusted for nondeductible expenses, other permanent items, valuation allowances, and any applicable income tax credits.

For purposes of calculating income tax expense, the Company continued to maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. federal and state net deferred tax assets as it was more likely than not that those deferred tax assets will not be realized. However, given the Company's recent net income, in accordance with our policy, the Company will continue to monitor the positive and negative evidence, and will adjust the valuation allowance as sufficient positive evidence becomes available. The exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release would be subject to change based on the level of profitability that the Company can achieve.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s provision for income taxes reflected an effective tax rate of (15.62) percent and (2.71) percent, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had an effective tax rate of (11.96) percent and (9.32) percent, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 percent primarily due to the Company's valuation allowance offsetting the benefits of losses. The Company’s total income tax expense consists primarily of state current income tax expense unable to be offset by attributes, deferred income tax expense relating to the tax amortization of acquired goodwill, and current income tax expense from foreign operations.

Operating losses and tax credits generated in years prior to 2022 remain open to adjustment until the statute of limitations closes for the tax year in which the net operating losses are utilized. Tax years 2022 through 2025 generally remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.
