Income Taxes Income Taxes
In calculating the provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimate of the annual effective tax rate based upon the facts and circumstances at each interim period. On a quarterly basis, the estimated annual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based upon changes in facts and circumstances, if any, compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and at each interim period thereafter.

The provision for income taxes reflected U.S. federal, state and local taxes at an estimated effective tax rate of 23.5% and 25.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The lower estimated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to a change in valuation allowances in the current year related to the tax effects of higher realized and unrealized gains on Company investments compared to the prior year and the rate impact of lower pre-tax income.
