    12.  Income Taxes: 

   For the three months ended  June 30, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $2.2 million, or 29.1%, compared to an income tax provision of $3.0 million, or 28.4%, for the three months ended  June 30, 2024. For the six months ended  June 30, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $3.2 million, or 29.5%, compared to an income tax provision of $6.2 million, or 27.6%, for the six months ended  June 30, 2024.
    
   The tax provision for the interim period is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the Company updates the estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.
    
   The quarterly tax provision and the quarterly estimate of the annual effective tax rate is subject to significant volatility due to several factors, including variability in accurately predicting the Company’s pre-tax and taxable income and the mix of jurisdictions to which they relate, changes in law and relative changes of expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized. Additionally, the effective tax rate can be more or less volatile based on the amount of pre-tax income. For example, the impact of discrete items and non-deductible expenses on the effective tax rate is greater when pre-tax income is lower.
