*   These include income tax penalties assessed under Section 2 of Chapter 111M of the Massachusetts General Laws and cigarette excise revenues credited to the Commonwealth Care Trust Fund in accordance with Sections 12 and 70 of Chapter 302 of the Acts of 2008.

** These include sales, meals, and room occupancy taxes, as well as service fees for the City of Worcester Digital Federal Credit Union Arena and Convention Center Capital Improvement Fund.

†   Pursuant to Section 17 of Chapter 28 of the Acts of 2023, the 4% income surtax revenues are not subject to the allowable state tax revenue limitations established by Chapter 62F of the General Laws. DOR estimated the 4% income surtax revenues to be excluded from fiscal year 2026 net state tax revenues to be $3,380,320,213. The fiscal year 2026 estimate was based on historical income tax return data, DOR’s vendors’ forecasts of various income sources, and DOR’s capital gains forecast. This adjustment is reflected in Exhibit II.
