While the Cooperative believes it has adequately provided for all tax positions, amounts asserted by taxing authorities could be different than the positions taken by the Cooperative. The Cooperative recognizes any interest and penalties assessed by taxing authorities in income tax expense; and, with few exeptions, is no longer subject to federal, state, or local income tax examinations by taxing authorities for years before 2022.
