The Partnership’s income tax expense fluctuates from period to period based on the timing of the taxable income in the Greens Hold Co and the impact of deferred income taxes. Deferred income tax expense is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (i.e. depreciation, amortization of finance costs, etc.). The deferred tax assets and liabilities are valued based on enacted tax rates. The Greens Hold Co had a net deferred tax liability of approximately $149,000 and a net deferred tax asset of approximately $664,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Substantially all of the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to The 50/50 MF Property that was sold in December 2022 as the related gain on sale has not been recognized for income tax purposes. These amounts are reported either within “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” or “Other assets” on the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets. The Partnership evaluated whether it is more likely than not that its deferred income tax assets will be realizable and recorded no valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Certain immaterial out-of-period adjustments related to income tax expense were made during the year ended December 31, 2025. See Note 2 for additional information.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, income taxes computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory rates to income from continuing operations before income taxes for the Greens Hold Co differ from the provision for income taxes due to state income taxes (net of the effect on federal income tax) and deferral of the gain on sale of The 50/50 MF Property for income tax purposes.

The Partnership accrues interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of income tax expense. There were no material uncertain tax positions, accrued interest or penalties as of December 31, 2025, and 2024.

The Partnership files U.S. federal and state tax returns. The Partnership’s returns for years 2022 through 2024 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

About Income Taxes Disclosures

The income tax disclosure reveals how much a company actually pays in taxes versus what the statutory rate would predict. Analysts focus on the effective tax rate (ETR) reconciliation, which breaks down every item driving the gap between the 21% federal rate and the company's reported ETR — including R&D credits, foreign rate differentials, and state taxes. Deferred tax assets (DTAs) and their valuation allowances signal management's confidence in future profitability: a rising allowance suggests the company doubts it can use accumulated tax benefits. Uncertain tax benefit (UTB) reserves quantify exposure to IRS challenges on aggressive positions.

Key signals to watch: sudden ETR drops without clear operational reasons, large increases in valuation allowances, growing UTB balances, and significant unremitted foreign earnings. Post-TCJA, pay attention to GILTI and BEAT provisions that affect multinational tax structures. Compare the cash taxes paid (from the cash flow statement) against the income tax provision to gauge earnings quality.
