14. Income TaxesOur tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in interim periods. The Company had an income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $9.6 million (on a pre-tax income of $33.3 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.7%) compared to income tax expense of $5.7 million (on pre-tax income of $19.6 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 29.1%) for the three months ended September 30, 2024.The difference in the effective tax rate of 28.7% in the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 29.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2024, was primarily due to a reduction in interest related to uncertain tax positions and reduction in shortfall of deductions for share based compensation expense vested during the period, offset by an increase in current losses subject to valuation allowance.The Company had an income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 of $14.0 million (on a pre-tax income of $27.7 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 50.3%) compared to income tax expense of $9.4 million (on pre-tax income of $18.1 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 52.1%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.       The difference in the effective tax rate of 50.3% in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 52.1% in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was primarily due to a reduction in interest related to uncertain tax positions and a reduction in shortfall of deductions for share based compensation expense vested during the period, offset by a decrease in the benefit of the disregarded entity structure due to the full exchange in April 2025.On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted by the U.S. government.
