INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective income tax rate was a benefit of 8.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to a provision of 1.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The Company’s effective income tax rate was a benefit of 44.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to a provision of less than 1.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company had a benefit for income taxes from continuing operations of $24,048, which is primarily comprised of the estimated federal and state tax benefits from the loss before income taxes reported during the three months ended September 30, 2026 that has decreased the expected annual projected income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2026. The expected annual effective income tax rate for the benefit during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 is greater than the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the benefit recorded for the expiration of statues of limitations for unrecognized tax benefits, offset by the estimated foreign taxes. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was less than the federal statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to being in a tax loss with a full valuation allowance.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of $602,913 and state net operating loss carryforwards of $688,239, which are available to offset taxable income. The Company has $39,319 of state capital loss carryovers as of December 31, 2025 that is available for carryforwards and will start to expire December 31, 2028. The Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards generated in 2023 through 2025 of $278,310 will be limited to offsetting 80% of taxable income but do not expire. The remaining federal net operating loss carryforwards will expire in the tax years commencing on December 31, 2033, through December 31, 2038. The state net operating loss carryforwards will expire in the tax years commencing on December 31, 2030.
The Company establishes a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax benefits of operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards are evaluated on an ongoing basis, including a review of historical and projected future operating results, the eligible carryforward period, and other circumstances. The Company’s net operating losses are subject to annual limitations in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Accordingly, the Company is limited to the amount of net operating loss that may be utilized in future taxable years depending on the Company’s actual taxable income. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, a full valuation allowance has been recorded since it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to utilize tax benefits before they expire. The Company reassesses the need for a valuation allowance on an ongoing basis.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., various state and local jurisdictions, and certain other foreign jurisdictions. The Company is currently under audit by certain state, local, and foreign tax authorities. The audits are in varying stages of completion. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by tax authorities. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, case law developments and closing of statutes of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the provision for income taxes, as appropriate. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the calendar years ended December 31, 2022 to 2025.

The Company intends to indefinitely reinvest foreign earnings and cash unless such repatriation results in no or minimal tax costs. It is not practicable to determine the amount of an unrecognized deferred tax liability for temporary differences related to investments in foreign subsidiaries.
