NOTE 7 — Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded provisions for income taxes of $139 and $37, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded provisions for income taxes of $271 and $162, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate is negative 4.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to negative 1.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily as a result of the Company’s full valuation allowance in the United States and foreign income taxes paid in China and India.
The Company’s material income tax jurisdictions are the United States (federal and California), China and India. As a result of net operating loss and credit carryforwards, the Company is subject to audit for tax years 2017 and forward for federal and 2015 and forward for California purposes. The China and India tax years are open under the statute of limitations from 2014 and 2020, respectively, and forward.
The Company is subject to ongoing tax examinations of its tax returns 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 June 30, 2025, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $1,507. If the Company’s estimates of income tax liabilities prove 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 in which we determine the liabilities are no longer necessary. The Company does not anticipate any material changes to its uncertain tax positions during the next twelve months.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was enacted into law. With the passing of this tax legislation, the most notable corporate tax issue that impacts the Company is the change to IRC §174. Since 2022, the Company has been required to capitalize U.S. and foreign research and development expenditures in accordance with IRC §174 and amortize those costs over 5 years for U.S. costs and 15 years for foreign costs. The new legislation will no longer require U.S. research and development costs to be capitalized; however, foreign costs will continue to be capitalized and amortized over 15 years. U.S. costs that were capitalized in tax years 2022 through 2024 can be expensed in 2025 or over a two-year period, 2025 and 2026. Since the legislation was enacted subsequent to June 30, 2025, there was no accelerated deduction for prior year U.S. capitalized costs during the period ended June 30, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the OBBBA will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
