As required by the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position after an audit. At the adoption date, the Organization applied the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations has remained open. As a result of the implementation of the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization has not recognized additional liability for unrecognized tax benefits nor any interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025. Management does not anticipate that this will change significantly in the next twelve months.
