During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.4 million and income tax expense of $1.5 million, respectively. The higher federal and state income tax expense in 2025 is largely due to recording an uncertain tax position for certain tax matters, including penalties and interest. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had an effective tax rate of 0.8% and 2.5%, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had an effective tax rate of (11.8)% and (4.7)%, respectively. The increase in the Company's tax rate was primarily due to the recording of the uncertain tax position in 2025 and projected break-even results in foreign operations in 2026 versus projected losses in 2025.
Income tax expense reflects taxes due to the taxing authorities and the tax effects of temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting and tax purposes, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
A valuation allowance is recorded to the extent it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A full valuation allowance was recorded on the Company’s U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Uncertain tax positions were approximately $2.0 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company’s uncertain tax position relates to U.S. federal and other jurisdictions. Due to various factors, including the inherent complexities and uncertainties of the judicial, administrative, and regulatory processes in certain jurisdictions, the timing of the resolution of income tax controversies is highly uncertain, and the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ from the amounts accrued. Any assessments or settlements could result in changes to the Company's contingencies related to positions on prior years’ tax filings.
