 income from its investment in CQJV for the three months ended September 30, 2025 versus an $0.2 million tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2024.  In addition, income tax payable increased by 10.4 million and deferred tax liability decreased by 10.5 million as a result of the sale of approximately 20.3% of the Company’s equity interest in the JV company for $150 million during the three month ended September 30, 2025.The Company files its income tax returns in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions.  The tax years 2004 to 2025 remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities.  The tax years 2019 to 2025 remain open to examination by foreign tax authorities.  The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examinations by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities in various jurisdictions.  In accordance with the guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, the Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes.  These assessments can require considerable estimates and judgments.  As of September 30, 2025, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $10.8 million, of which $7.4 million, if recognized, would reduce the effective income tax rate in future periods.  If the Company’s estimate of income tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate assessment, then a further charge to expense would be required.  If events occur and the payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when the Company determines the liabilities are no longer necessary.  The Company does not anticipate any material changes to its uncertain tax positions during the next twelve months.One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Enacted July 4, 2025On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBB”), was signed into law.
