NOTE 8 — INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense for the quarter and year-to-date was calculated according to ASC 740-270, “Income Taxes - Interim Reporting.” This method uses forecasted annual earnings and other amounts, such as uncertain tax positions and withholding taxes, to estimate annual tax expense. Losses from jurisdictions with a valuation allowance are excluded from the annual estimated tax rate. Each quarter’s income tax expense is based on the year-to-date annual estimated tax rate, adjusted for discrete taxable events during the interim period.For the nine months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, income tax expense was $38.0 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The $22.0 million increase was primarily attributable to a one-time discrete tax benefit of $48.1 million recognized in 2024 related to the onshoring of certain intangible property and $1.2 million related to other miscellaneous discrete items. This was partially offset by a gain of $17.3 million from the Delta Divestiture in 2024 and a $10.0 million increase in tax expense in 2024 driven by higher pre-tax earnings and changes in the geographic mix of earnings across tax jurisdictions.On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), was enacted into law. The OBBBA permanently extends several major provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, including 100% bonus depreciation,
