10. Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes. The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, recognized in the period in which they occur.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $0 and $330,186 on pre-tax losses of $2.2 million and pre-tax income $3.8 million for effective tax rates of 0% and 8.68%, respectively. The effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily because the Company recorded foreign withholding tax expense on China licensing revenue while receiving no corresponding U.S. tax benefit due to its full valuation allowance.

 

The following are income taxes paid by jurisdiction:
