On December 4, 2023, Massachusetts enacted supplemental tax law changes modifying the adoption of a single sales apportionment factor effective on January 1, 2025 to use the property and payroll factors if no sales factor exits. As required under ASC 740, the Company has accounted for the deferred tax impacts of this tax law change in the period the tax law was enacted, which has the impact of decreasing its state deferred tax assets. The impact of the tax law change is offset by a change in valuation allowance.
