| INCOME TAXES | 15. INCOME TAXES Summit Midstream Corporation’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was 4.51% and 912.00%, respectively. Summit Midstream Corporation’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was different from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the net income allocated to the noncontrolling interest, tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, and nondeductible executive compensation. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, and when necessary, valuation allowances are provided. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. SMC assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets quarterly and considers carryback availability, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. No valuation allowance has been recognized as of June 30, 2026.
