Provision for Income Taxes

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $0.1 million in income tax benefit at an ETR of 16.9%. The Company has computed the provision for income taxes based on the estimated annual effective tax rate excluding loss jurisdictions with no tax benefit and the application of discrete items, if any, for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025 were the valuation allowance related to the Company's U.S. consolidated group, DTI, DSI, and the foreign rate differentials for Air T's operations located in the Netherlands and Puerto Rico, and the benefit from the FDII deduction.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law in the U.S., which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. The Company is evaluating the full effects of the legislation on its estimated annual effective tax rate and cash tax position, but does not expect the legislation to have a material impact on its financial statements. Because the law was enacted after the end of the first fiscal quarter, its effects are not reflected in the operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million at an ETR of 68.9%. The Company has computed the provision for income taxes based on the estimated annual effective tax rate excluding loss jurisdictions with no tax benefit and the application of discrete items, if any, for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 were the change in valuation allowance related to the Company's U.S. consolidated group, DTI, LGSS, DSI, BCCM Kenya, and the foreign rate differentials for Air T's operations located in the Netherlands and Puerto Rico.
