THE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THRESHOLD REPRESENTS A POSITIVE ASSERTION BY MANAGEMENT THAT NPR IS ENTITLED TO THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF A TAX POSITION. IF A TAX POSITION IS NOT CONSIDERED MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED BASED SOLELY ON ITS TECHNICAL MERITS, NO BENEFITS OF THE POSITION ARE TO BE RECOGNIZED. MOREOVER, THE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THRESHOLD MUST CONTINUE TO BE MET IN EACH REPORTING PERIOD TO SUPPORT CONTINUED BENEFIT RECOGNITION. AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 AND 2024, THERE WERE NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS FOR WHICH LIABILITY SHOULD BE RECORDED.
