The Company’s effective tax rate for the year ended June 30, 2025 is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to tax benefits resulting from a loss on subsidiary and share-based compensation. The Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to an amendment of a prior year return resulting in a refund.

The Company and its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return. The Company also files unitary or separate returns in various state, local and non-U.S. jurisdictions based on state, local and non-U.S. filing requirements. Tax years that remain subject to examination by the IRS are the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 through June 30, 2025. Tax years that remain subject to examination by state authorities are the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 through June 30, 2025. Tax years that remain subject to examination by non-U.S. authorities are the periods ended December 31, 2019 through June 30, 2025. Acquired entities may have tax years that differ from the Company and are still open under the relevant statute of limitations and therefore are subject to potential adjustment. The Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions.

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.
