OFBF HAD $1,154 OF UNRELATED BUSINESS LOSS FOR THE YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2025. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE MEASURED USING ENACTED TAX RATES EXPECTED TO APPLY TO TAXABLE INCOME IN THE YEARS IN WHICH THOSE TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES ARE EXPECTED TO BE RECOVERED OR SETTLED. THE EFFECT ON DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF A CHANGE IN TAX RATES IS RECOGNIZED IN INCOME IN THE PERIOD THAT INCLUDES THE ENACTMENT DATE. GAAP REQUIRES THE FEDERATION TO EVALUATE THE LEVEL OF UNCERTAINTY RELATED TO WHETHER TAX POSITIONS TAKEN WILL BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION. ANY POSITIONS TAKEN THAT DO NOT MEET THE MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT THRESHOLD MUST BE QUANTIFIED AND RECORDED AS A LIABILITY FOR UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IN THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION ALONG WITH INTEREST AND PENALTIES THAT WOULD BE PAYABLE TO THE TAXING AUTHORITIES UPON EXAMINATION. THE FEDERATION BELIEVES THAT NONE OF THE TAX POSITIONS TAKEN WOULD MATERIALLY IMPACT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, AND NO SUCH LIABILITIES HAVE BEEN RECORDED.
