As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had income tax payable of $4.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, included within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On September 14, 2021, the State of Florida announced the reduction of the 2021 corporate tax rate from 4.5% to 3.5% retroactive to the beginning of 2021. The corporate income tax rate has reverted to 5.5% for tax year 2022 and years forward.

In general, a valuation allowance is recorded if, based on all available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future years in the appropriate tax jurisdictions to obtain a benefit from the reversal of deductible temporary differences and from loss carryforwards. As of both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s valuation allowance was $0.3 million.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from potential examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes and applies a “more-likely-than-not” in determining the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in the tax returns. The Company has not identified any material unrecognized tax benefits as of either June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.
