Share price after the results: −30.9%No guidance change, the tax rate is expected at about 25%, and the 2027 outlook remains positive but tempered by macro uncertainty.
“The second quarter tax expense was $9 million, approximately 18% of pretax income, and we expect tax expense rate in the remainder of 2026 to be approximately 25% of pretax income and do not expect to pay material cash taxes in the year.”The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
