Weighted average ownership percentage of RMCO^(a)		60.2	%		39.8	%		100.0	%		59.7	%		40.3	%		100.0	%
Income (loss) before provision for income taxes^(a)	$	10,235		$	6,791		$	17,026		$	7,628		$	5,157		$	12,785

(a)	The weighted average ownership percentage of RMCO differs from the allocation of income (loss) before provision for income taxes between Holdings and the non-controlling interest due to certain relatively insignificant items recorded at Holdings.

(b)

The provision for income taxes attributable to Holdings is primarily comprised of U.S. federal and state income taxes on its proportionate share of the flow-through income from RMCO. It also includes Holdings’ share of taxes directly incurred by RMCO and its subsidiaries, including taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions.

(c)	Beginning in July 2021 as a result of the acquisition of INTEGRA, RMCO now also owns two corporate subsidiaries, which unlike RMCO are not pass-through entities. These entities are taxed at the corporate level on 100% of their income.

(d)

The provision for income taxes attributable to the non-controlling interest represents its share of taxes incurred by RMCO and its subsidiaries (both foreign taxes and taxes from non-flow through subsidiaries). Otherwise, because RMCO is a flow-through entity, there is no U.S. federal and state income tax provision recorded on the non-controlling interest.
