Small Business, Big Impact NO TEACHER LIKE EXPERIENCE

BY MICHELLE RENNE LEACH

Just like their owners wear a lot of hats, Impact 250 businesses represent myriad different things. These organizations embody resiliency in the face of change and truly unprecedented circumstances, as well as a diverse backbone of the Midlands regional economy. Each featured owner or leader brings unique history, passion and motivations to the business.

When Mary Clare Sweet founded Lotus House of Yoga in 2010 with her mother, Anne, she already had years of yoga practice under her belt, despite only being in her mid-20s.

Inspired by extensive travel, Sweet expanded the yoga studio to include Pilates, sculpt, cycle and meditation classes. However, the Sweets never lost sight of the “soul” of the business: yoga. It’s just expressed in a variety of different styles of movement. For this reason, “yoga” remains front and center in the branding, instead of a more comprehensive name like “House of Wellness.”

Now in her early 40s, Sweet reflected on what can only be learned through lived experience.

“Entrepreneurs were born for this lifestyle,” she said. “There are decisions, strategies and ideations that aren’t found in other media.”

Sweet indicated self-trust is an invaluable teacher when books, conferences and podcasts fall short.

“Entrepreneurship is saying ‘yes’ to your inner code and watching life align to you,” she said.

To date, COVID-19 remains the biggest challenge for the business, but even that crisis was not without its silver lining. During

Center Mall Redevelopment Proposed

The Center Mall near 42nd and Center streets, an Omaha fixture since 1955, could give way to a mixed-use redevelopment under a proposal from Lockwood Development.

The plan calls for 500 apartment units and office space on the site. Current tenants — including businesses and nonprofits operating out of the mall — say the news came as a shock and expressed concern about finding alternative locations if the

TOP THINGS TO KNOW

Union Pacific posts Q1 gains

Union Pacific reported first-quarter 2026 net income of $1.7 billion and diluted earnings per share of $2.87 (adjusted $2.93), on operating revenue of $6.2 billion, up 3% year over year. The Omaha-based railroad affirmed its 2026 outlook for mid-single-digit EPS growth and reiterated its multi-year growth target through 2027, citing better service metrics and productivity.

NDOT tees up I-680 rebuild

The Nebraska Department of Transportation is preparing a major reconstruction of I-680 between Fort Street and the Blair High Road interchange to relieve chronic congestion and better fit urban traffic volumes. Plans call for adding a lane in each direction, a median barrier, storm sewer upgrades and redesigning parts of the Blair High Road interchange, plus rebuilding Blair High Road from around Ida Street to State Street. Construction is targeted for 2029 and could slip to 2030. NDOT is also set to study traffic, road and bridge conditions and potential improvements along US-75 at several interchanges from N-370 to F Street.

Scooter’s signs 31-store deal

Omaha-based Scooter’s Coffee announced one of its largest multi-store development agreements, partnering with Boddie-Noell Enterprises to develop and operate 31 additional Scooter’s locations. The new stores will be in North Carolina and Virginia, expanding Scooter’s footprint in a region where it already has 14 locations. Scooter’s said the deal supports its broader growth push as the drivethru chain tops 900 locations across 32 states.

Pillen: Tax relief, AAA, incentives

Gov. Jim Pillen used an open cabinet meeting to underscore Nebraska’s fiscal and business climate messaging: a record AAA credit rating, a projected $881 million reserve and $3.6 billion in property tax relief this biennium. The administration also pointed to $418 million in spending reductions and a goal of lowering the income tax rate to about 3.99% by 2027. Pillen also highlighted the newly signed Grow the Good Life Act and apprenticeship efforts.

Werner launches startup accelerator

Werner Enterprises and the Nebraska Startup Academy selected two companies for the inaugural 12-week Werner Exchange accelerator, designed to help logistics startups validate products with enterprise-scale customers. The cohort includes Omaha-based machine learning company Aulendur Labs and Chicago-based fleet-maintenance automation firm Elmeeda. The hands-on program runs from Werner’s Omaha offices and ends with a virtual demo day without taking equity in participants, the company announced.

Habitat kicks off 20-home build

Habitat for Humanity of Omaha kicked off its Pope Leo Village build at the Bluestem Development near 52nd Street and Sorensen Parkway, starting construction on the first of 20 homes planned over the next two years. Grow Omaha announced more than 50 volunteers, staff and homeowners took part in the launch. The initiative is part

of a nationwide effort with 20 Habitat affiliates aimed at promoting youth volunteerism while expanding attainable homeownership supply.

Eppley terminal retailers emerge

New building-permit filings tied to Eppley Airfield’s terminal expansion are beginning to reveal the tenant mix for the concessions program expected to roll out as the project comes online. Grow Omaha reported permits for food and retail buildouts including The Mill coffee shop and Plum Market, plus specialty retail spaces for Blackstone Supply, iPorte, 50th Street Market and Uniquely Omaha. The $1 billion terminal project is slated to open next year.

Tenaska unit lands TVA storage deal

An affiliate of Omaha-based Tenaska signed a longterm energy storage agreement with the Tennessee Valley Authority for a 225-megawatt/900-megawatt-hour project in Tennessee. Grow Omaha reported the project is expected to start construction next year and begin operations in late 2029. The deal underscores continued growth in utility-scale storage tied to grid reliability and renewables integration, while adding to Tenaska’s national development portfolio.

Retail expansion permits at Avenue One

Additional building permits have been filed for major home-furnishings retailers at the Avenue One Goodlife District near 192nd Street and West Dodge Road. Grow Omaha reported permits for Pottery Barn (12,500 square feet) and Williams-Sonoma (5,600 square feet) in the same one-story building, along with a permit for a 12,500-squarefoot West Elm store. The filings follow earlier permitting for Arhaus as the district lines up national tenants ahead of future openings.

Pop-top shop heads to North Omaha

Still Poppin, the popcorn business currently selling out of Big Mama’s Kitchen in the Highlander Accelerator space at Seventy-Five North, is preparing to open a standalone storefront in North Omaha. Grow Omaha cited a building permit for a 1,700-square-foot space at 3207 N. 30th St. in the Malcolm’s Place mixed-use building, which includes 51 apartments and ground-floor retail. The move would expand the company’s retail presence and production capacity, officials said.

Helzberg eyes Oakview-area space

Helzberg Diamonds may be preparing to add or relocate a store near the Oakview area, based on a new buildingpermit filing in west Omaha. Grow Omaha reported a permit to remodel prior office space into retail at 2625 S. 140th St., near 140th Street and West Center Road. Helzberg is based in Kansas City and owned by Berkshire Hathaway. If confirmed, the project would add another national jewelry option to the corridor’s retail mix.

The company recently closed a Minneapolis location and a seafood concept in downtown Denver. The filing is the latest sign of postpandemic stress on multi-market operators.

Wildfire history, recovery info online

Following historic wildfires that burned nearly one million acres of Nebraska grazing lands this spring, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln launched wildfire.unl.edu, an online hub integrating science, mapping and field-based documentation to support producers navigating recovery. Built through Nebraska Extension and university research programs, the platform draws on four decades of research to help farmers, ranchers and land managers restore Nebraska’s native grasslands.

MCC location receives SBDC designation

Metropolitan Community College’s business development programs at its Ashton location at 1106 N. 12th St. have received a federal Small Business Development Center designation from the U.S. Small Business Administration. MCC’s SBDC joins a national network of approximately 1,000 centers and is Nebraska’s second federally designated SBDC; the first is associated with the University of Nebraska Omaha. A ribbon cutting and open house is planned May 6.

State AG named aviation committee chair

Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers has been appointed chair of the Aviation Consumer Protection Advisory Committee, serving as a state and local government representative. Hilgers will lead the committee’s efforts to strengthen aviation consumer protections nationwide during a two-year term. ACPAC evaluates existing aviation consumer protection programs and recommends improvements to enhance the air travel experience and guard against unfair or deceptive practices.

Parks and Rec improves wayfinding

Omaha Parks and Recreation has begun installing new overpass street signs across the city’s trail system to improve safety and wayfinding. The project includes 100 signs at 50 overpasses, primarily along the Keystone, Big Papio and West Papio trails, to help users navigate and locate their position if emergency responders are needed. Installation will continue into summer.

Mid Country Machinery expands to Blair

Heavy equipment dealer Mid Country Machinery has opened a new MCM Rents location in Blair, adding a dedicated rental and service hub to better serve customers across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. The Blair branch operates as part of a shared network with locations in Omaha, Fremont, Tekamah and Missouri Valley, giving customers access to an expanded fleet without extended travel.

NO TEACHER LIKE EXPERIENCE FOR SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSES

BY MICHELLE RENNE LEACH

Entrepreneurs were born for this lifestyle. There are decisions, strategies and ideations that aren’t found in other media,

the first phase of the pandemic, Sweet filmed herself at the studio, so Lotus House of Yoga was positioned well when people started using virtual fitness and mindfulness-oriented platforms. Today, clients can take in-person classes or live classes online from home or wherever they may be. They can also access a library of past classes at any time.

More recently, Sweet’s priorities have shifted to a focus on creativity, innovation and disruption.

— MARY CLARE SWEET, OWNER, LOTUS HOUSE OF YOGA

“AI can only pull from the past,” she explained. “Humans are here to create the future.”

When comparing what she’s doing now to a year ago, Sweet is releasing the “rules” of the business past and embracing ingenuity instead.

“Conformity is not community,” she said. “Let’s celebrate imperfection, differences and disruptions to the status quo. That is what makes entrepreneurship valuable.”

Turning a page

Not even 10 years ago DaRonn Washington was working as a full-time manager for a home improvement retailer. While the work was putting his business degree to good use and supported his family, it wasn’t fulfilling Washington’s passion. His real passion was board games.

What started as buying pre-owned games via online and social media evolved into a full-time pursuit when Washington began renting space in 2019 at the Mega Market, an indoor flea market in Millard. He started buying and selling books during this time, and when the market went out of business around two years later, Washington sought out a location for a neighborhood bookstore. That location would be a 600-square-foot space in historic downtown Papillion on Washington Street.

Since the 2020 opening, Washington has learned that the notion of how “everything rises and falls on you” is something that entrepreneurs can’t understand or learn until they actually live it.

“As a small business owner of an independent bookstore, there are a million of different things that you face in a given week that require your attention and solutions,” he said. “That and dealing with the challenges that come with an economy that changes rapidly, it keeps the business owner on their toes.”

Legal requirements, marketing campaigns, product acquisition, and hiring and replacing staff are just a few of the responsibilities that require attention, he said, noting this doesn’t include the items that creep in at any given moment.

“It will require a number of years of the business owning you until you actually own the business and it gives you the freedom that you so desperately desired,” Washington said.

The Book Nook of 2020 is not The Book Nook of today. In a July 2025 piece for Midlands Business Journal, Washington indicated the shop had bigger aspirations beyond its initial 600 square feet. So, when a neighboring space became available, he jumped, expanding square footage significantly and forming The Little Nook, a rental space for events and activities such as pop-up classes and concerts. Washington’s vision of becoming a true community partner is materializing.

More recently, Washington has focused on leaning into what makes the Book Nook unique.

“Letting that spark creativity changed everything,” he said. “We stopped trying to be the bookstore people thought we should be and started becoming the bookstore I would actually want to shop in.”

The realization that he didn’t like what the store was becoming struck him a few years ago.

“I didn’t even enjoy shopping there myself,” Washington said. “If I, as the owner, didn’t like the experience, what was the point? It made no sense to work 80 hours a week building something I didn’t enjoy.”

In changing the store, Washington allowed it to become what he calls an “expression of the kind of bookstore we love.”

“The people who connect with that truly love it,” he said. “Others decided it

wasn’t for them, and that’s OK. Today, The Book Nook reflects our personality, our taste and the kind of experience we genuinely enjoy creating.”

Predicting success

When Contemporary Analysis launched in 2008, there wasn’t anyone available to do the work of predictive analytics, the use of math and economics to take data and predict what people will buy next. Through the years, CEO Nate Watson said businesses have come to rely on the accuracy of the company’s information.

Watson said it is only through experience that entrepreneurs can really under -

stand how owning a small business can test them and make them grow, too.

“As a small business owner, I am asked to do things I don’t know how to do,” he said. “Some of them, I can call upon my group of other presidents to ask how they did it, other things I cannot.”

Watson explained that he must think and research how his company is going to solve a problem.

“When you are in bleeding-edge AI, sometimes those solutions are truly unique,” he said. “You get to be an explorer, a conqueror and a fixer.”

The indescribable itch to problem solve, according to Watson, is rewarding in

ways that can’t be understood until someone is living it.

“I look forward to Mondays and the new solutions it will require,” he said.

One pivotal new solution surfaced in 2015, when the State of Nebraska asked Watson if his team could train individuals in data research. Rather than functioning as a traditional consultant to deliver solutions, CAN began training other people to do the work themselves.

CAN also expanded to train individuals who are unaffiliated with specific businesses. To overcome the historical cross-communication challenges that have plagued the Omaha data science community, Watson began inviting area profes -

sionals to meet and now hosts a conference for like-minded folks.

Over the last year, Watson said he began focusing on “why” problems exist.

“We have found that by asking a lot more questions around the why, solutions can be more impactful,” he said. “People get so wrapped up in the speed bump they have encountered they don’t realize all the options for solutions have changed.”

If and when people start back at the beginning, Watson said, a cleaner, faster and sometimes more affordable solution can be built that is better for everyone.

“As AI has helped us build anything and everything faster, putting in the work to understand the problem has become even more important than ever,” he said.

Financially resilient businesses diversify revenue streams, maintain liquidity buffers and make proactive decisions. In contrast, struggling businesses often lack regular financial management and rely heavily on a single customer, product, or funding source.

competing for talent and staying compliant with regulations can be another fulltime job aside from keeping customers.

As of 2023, the Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area had 82,924 small businesses, which accounted for 98.6% of businesses. Those businesses employed 192,312 people, which is 44.5% of employees.

In an interview in late 2025, Alec Gorynski, senior vice president of economic development for the Greater Omaha Chamber, said roughly 80% of the chamber’s membership is businesses with fewer than 50 employees, a demographic that accounts for roughly a fifth of the local workforce.

Those numbers alone demonstrate the importance of the success of small business in the area.

State of small business

According to the 2025 U.S. Small Business Administration Small Business Advocacy report, there are 193,495 small businesses in Nebraska, which accounts for 99.1% of Nebraska businesses. Those businesses employ 422,756 employees with 47.5% of Nebraska employees working for small businesses.

“This is a careful business environment, but it’s not discouraging,” said Johanna Lyon, senior vice president and director of branch delivery for Security National Bank.

“Omaha’s small businesses benefit from a diverse economy, lower operating costs than many similar cities and strong community support,” Lyon said. “Business owners here usually

— JOHANNA LYON, SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, DIRECTOR OF BRANCH DELIVERY, SECURITY NATIONAL BANK

prefer steady, stable growth instead of rapid expansion, which helps them in the long run.”

Timothy Mittan, district director for the Nebraska District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration, said Nebraska small businesses are known for adapting to challenges.

“Businesses in Nebraska tend to be resilient,” Mittan said. “We lost very few businesses during COVID because they adjusted.”

According to the U.S. Chamber, in 2023, Douglas County had 8,018 business applications, the most in Nebraska.

Money management

According to USAFacts, in March 2026 the Midwest region had a headline inflation rate of 3.4% and core inflation of 2.9%. With the core number being lower than headline, that means food and energy had higher price increases over the previous year compared to other goods and services.

“Many small businesses are feeling pressure on their profit margins, mainly because of higher wages, increased supplier costs and higher interest rates than in recent years,” Lyon said. “Even though inflation has eased in some areas, costs remain high, so businesses are dealing with bigger expenses than before.”

Mittan said the small businesses that are remaining successful in today’s environment are “focusing on intentional spending,” and if there is ever a time to stick to the strategic plan, it is now. Business owners must avoid reactive mistakes, such as deep discounts on products that are not sustainable over time.

“If you make drastic changes that are not well thought out, it will have a devastating effect down the road,” he said. “We ask (business owners) to take a close look at their business model. Is it still working? If not,

People stay because they’re treated well. Small businesses feel like family. Employees have to feel valued when they walk through the door. That’s key.

how can you shift it?’”

A focus on American-made goods has also presented obstacles for small businesses, but the Make Onshoring Great Again portal can help business owners navigate these challenges through a searchable database, Mittan said.

“Businesses can also apply to be listed,” Mittan said. “It has great potential and value.”

Lyon said financial well-being really depends on the business and the decisions the owners have made.

“Those with strong pricing, good cost control and a clear handle on cash flow are doing well,” she said. “Others, especially those that took on higher costs without changing their prices or operations, are seeing their margins shrink.”

Lyon said there are a few things that set successful small businesses apart from those that are struggling.

“Financially resilient businesses diversify revenue streams, maintain liquidity buffers and make proactive decisions. In contrast, struggling businesses often lack regular financial management and rely heavily on a single customer, product or funding source,” she said.

Those businesses with clear growth plans and proven cash flow are securing capital, she said, even though higher interest rates have slowed down borrowing. Businesses are making careful decisions regarding new loans and balancing other priorities.

“Small business lending remains cautious but accessible,” Lyon said. “There is strong demand for working capital, equipment financing and lines of credit for inventory or seasonal needs.”

Lyon said banks are focused on ensuring each deal makes sense and supports long-term

— CODY BROOKHOUSER-SISNEY, ATTORNEY, MCGRATH NORTH

success. Those businesses that are monitoring cash flow weekly versus monthly are remaining successful.

“Banks are prioritizing sustainable cash flow, strong debt-service coverage, clear use of proceeds and operationally sound businesses,” Lyon said. “(These businesses) are also tightening up on outstanding accounts receivable and utilizing their lines of credit strategically, rather than as a permanent solution.”

The SBA Advocacy Report notes that in 2023, reporting banks issued $517.9 million in loans to Nebraska businesses with revenues of $1 million or less. Total reported new lending to businesses through loans of $1 million or less was $1.5 billion. Total reported new lending to businesses through loans of $100,000 or less was $496.3 million.

Talent competition

It’s no secret that small businesses are at a disadvantage when it comes to the ability to pay their employees on par with larger corporations. Some are able to swing it but most have to offer other benefits that make their business more appealing to workers.

Mittan said no one has a surefire answer to beating the competition when it comes to talent retention. What small businesses can do is provide a working environment that creates an interest in remaining with the business.

Company culture isn’t just a buzzword. According to a recent Gallup poll, as of August 2025, only 20% of U.S. employees strongly agree that they feel connected to their organization’s culture. This is where small businesses can capitalize.

SMALL BUSINESS insights

Cautious, But Not Discouraging

SMALL BUSINESSES NEED TO PLAN STRATEGICALLY

One thing employers might not realize is if you put something (with potential legal ramifications) into ChatGPT or any other type of AI, there is really no attorney-client privilege there.

“People stay because they’re treated well,” Mittan said. “Small businesses feel like family. Employees have to feel valued when they walk through the door. That’s key.”

Another important aspect of employee retention is ensuring opportunity for growth whether that is by creating leadership roles within the business or investing in upskilling for current employees, Mittan said.

A recent Mutual of Omaha blog post stated that looking beyond the paycheck is critical for employee retention. Benefits, paid leave and other boosts to work-life balance can make an impact on employee retention and it can be less costly to retain employees than training new ones.

The U.S. Chamber reports that small businesses are also embracing tactics like flexible work hours (68%) or hybrid or remote working options (48%).

“Most people who do well in business understand the value of a good employee,” he said.

— BRITNI SUMMERS, ATTORNEY, MCGRATH NORTH

“If you treat your people well, they will stay and help your business grow.”

Regulatory compliance

Talent retention isn’t the only employee-related issue that warrants attention in the small business environment. Attorneys Britni Summers and Cody Brookhouser-Sisney of McGrath North agree that the most common — and costly — mistake small businesses make is misclassifying workers.

The distinction between contractor and employee status affects everything from taxes to overtime eligibility to benefits, and it all boils down to the “control” a supervisor has over that employee, Summers said.

“If [a business is] able to tell the person, these are your business hours, these are the tasks you’re going to do, that really screams that person is an employee,” she said, but noted that every situation is different.

A misclassification can easily come to light if a worker raises concerns with the U.S. Department of Labor, and then investigations can evolve quickly across various agencies.

Although some might think worker classification issues are specific to certain industries, Summers said it is not an industry-specific problem. There’s no industry that is immune to these types of misclassifications, from sales to construction.

Brookhouser-Sisney said one of the most challenging aspects of remaining compliant with business regulations is that requirements are constantly changing, especially with presidential administration changes.

“It’s kind of like a pendulum; laws shift one way, and then back the other way,” BrookhouserSisney said. “It can be hard to keep track.”

Mittan said that understanding federal compliance is essential, but understanding state, county and city compliance requirements is important as well. If a business is operating in another state, it is the business owner’s responsibility to understand those compliance requirements.

As businesses grow and approach employee thresholds tied to certain laws, outsourcing payroll, HR compliance and the like can be a practical alternative but there is no magic number or time that indicates the need for additional support.

Another layer of compliance concerns comes from the growing use of artificial intelligence within a business setting. In particular, data privacy becomes an issue as well. For example, AI can compromise the attorney-client privilege if potentially compromising or sensitive information is uploaded into an AI model. Brookhouser-Sisney said courts have established that there’s no reasonable expectation of privacy there and that information can be discoverable in legal proceedings.

“One thing employers might not realize is if you put something (with potential legal ramifications) into ChatGPT or any other type of AI, there is really no attorney-client privilege there,” Summers said.

Businesses are also tasked with managing their employees’ and customers’ data, for instance handling sensitive information via medical records.

“Medical documentation is supposed to be guarded confidentially and kept separately,” Brookhouser-Sisney said. “A lot of times, small businesses don’t necessarily know how to navigate those issues.”

Summers and Brookhouser-Sisney noted that it is also important to outline policies and procedures for the business sooner rather than later, and to take compliance concerns seriously, especially if that concern has escalated to government correspondence.

“If you get a letter from the government, do not handle that on your own,” Summers said. “Reach out and get legal help.”

With a crowd of library patrons of all ages looking on, Omaha Mayor John W. Ewing Jr. cut the ribbon to officially open Omaha Central Library to the public on April 19. The 102,000 square foot building at 72nd and Dodge streets is the new hub of the Omaha Public Library (OPL) system, combining traditional library books and services with in-demand social amenities and state-of-the-art technologies.

Once the ribbon was cut, visitors spread out to explore the library, eager to see the new collection of books displayed for easy browsing and to explore the tech and makerspace equipment available at Do Space. Patrons watched as the robotic arms of the Automated Storage and Retrieval System – the three-story book storage system at the center of the building – retrieved books requested from OPL’s large collection. Visitors expressed amazement at the building’s design and amenities, with plenty of comfortable spaces both indoors and outdoors to read and gather surrounded by a stunning collection of public art.

OPL Executive Director Laura Marlane said the opening of Omaha Central Library felt like the turning of a new page for the entire city. “This library is more than a building – it’s a statement about who we are and what we believe in,” Marlane said. “Omaha Central Library stands for access — to information, technology and opportunity — and for the idea that everyone in this community deserves a place where they can learn, create and connect.”

The $158 million project was facilitated by Heritage Omaha, which raised $138 million from donors to fund the project. The City of Omaha contributed $20 million in redevelopment bonds and remains committed to the ongoing operation and maintenance of the entire OPL system.

Mayor Ewing said the world-class library is a testament to the public-private partnerships that Omaha does so well. “Thanks to the donors, led by Heritage Omaha, we created a building that is more than bricks and mortar,” Ewing said. “Omaha Central Library is an investment in literacy, digital equity, community development and individual potential –and likely the envy of public libraries across the nation.”

Nebraska’s Strategic Tax Evolution A POST-APRIL 15 GUIDE FOR BUSINESS OWNERS

For Nebraska’s business community, the conclusion of the April 15, 2026, tax deadline is less of a finish line and more of a starting block. As the state marches toward a significant structural transformation of its tax code, business owners from Fortune 500 executives to Main Street entrepreneurs are facing a new landscape defined by aggressive rate cuts and modernized compliance mandates.

The glide path to 3.99%

The headline of Nebraska’s current fiscal policy is the multi-year “glide path” established by LB 754, signed into law in 2023. This legislation set in motion a phased reduction of both individual and corporate income tax rates, aimed at shedding Nebraska’s reputation as a high-tax state and enhancing its regional competitiveness.

As of Jan. 1, 2026, the top individual and corporate income tax rates have fallen to 4.55%, according to the office of Gov. Jim Pillen. Looking ahead to the 2027 tax year, the final phase of this reduction will see the top rate drop again to a flat 3.99%, the governor’s office confirmed.

This 3.99% target is a strategic benchmark for the Pillen administration. It positions Nebraska as a formidable competitor against neighbors such as Iowa, which has already implemented a flat rate of 3.8% under Senate File 2442, according to the Iowa Department of Revenue, and Missouri, which maintains a top rate of 4.7%, according to the Tax Foundation. For larger corporations, this flat rate provides a predictable fiscal environment that rivals established low-tax hubs like Colorado, where both individual and corporate income are taxed at a flat 4.4%, according to the Tax Foundation.

Electronic mandates

Business owners must also navigate ongoing requirements in how they interact with the Nebraska Department of Revenue. According to the DOR’s Electronic Payment and E-File Mandates page, the following rules apply to the 2026 tax year, filing in 2027:

• $5,000 withholding threshold: Any employer whose total income tax withholding exceeded $5,000 in any prior year is required to make all subsequent withholding payments electronically. The DOR has noted that pre-identified paper forms such as Form 941N will no longer be mailed to these taxpayers.

• 50-statement rule: Businesses that issue more than 50 wage and tax statements — including Forms W-2, W-2G, 1099-R and 1099-MISC — are required to file those documents electronically using NebFile for Business, per the DOR.

• Penalties for noncompliance: The DOR enforces these mandates with a $100 penalty for noncompliance in all tax programs except individual income tax.

The pass-through entity tax “workaround”

One of the most valuable tools for S corporations and partnerships remains the elective Pass-Through Entity Tax. Introduced by LB 754, this election allows these businesses to pay state income tax at the entity level rather than passing it through to individual owners, according to legal analysis by Koley Jessen.

The primary advantage of the PTET is its role as a federal workaround for the $10,000 state and local tax deduction limit, commonly known as SALT cap. By paying at the entity level, the tax becomes a fully deductible business expense for federal purposes with owners receiving a refundable credit on their personal Nebraska returns for their share of the tax paid, per Nebraska DOR.

For the 2026 tax year, the PTET rate is aligned with the top individual rate of 4.55% and will drop to 3.99% in 2027, according to the department. Businesses making this election are required to make quarterly estimated payments if their expected PTET liability is $400 or more, the DOR confirmed.

Maximizing property tax relief

Despite ongoing legislative debates regarding the state’s budget deficit, property tax relief remains a central pillar of the “Good Life” economic plan. Business owners should be diligent in claiming the refundable credit for property taxes paid to community colleges, per the Nebraska DOR.

For the 2026 tax year, the state has allocated a minimum of $808 million for school district property tax relief, growing to $838 million in 2027, according to Nebraska Revised Statute §77-7305.

Looking forward: Key dates for 2026

Proactive compliance is the best defense against interest and penalties. Mark the following dates for the remainder of the 2026 fiscal year:

• June 15: Deadline for second-quarter estimated tax payments for individuals and corporations.

• July 31: Filing deadline for the second-quarter Nebraska Income Tax Withholding Return (Form 941N).

• Sept. 15: Third-quarter estimated tax payments are due. This is also the final extension deadline for 2025 S corporation and partnership returns.

• Oct. 15: Final extension deadline for 2025 individual and C corporation returns.

As Nebraska transitions into its next phase of tax reform, the burden of action lies with the business owner. Utilizing electronic systems and entity-level tax elections are no longer just “best practices” — they are the new standard for doing business in the state.

WHAT THE 2025 ANNUAL DAF REPORT REVEALS FOR OMAHA SPONSORED

At the Omaha Community Foundation, our role goes beyond granting money to nonprofits. We help donors make informed decisions about how and when their generosity can have the greatest impact. Doing that well requires not only deep local knowledge but also credible national data that adds context and perspective to an evolving philanthropic landscape.

That is why OCF sponsored the 2025 Annual Donor Advised Fund Report, produced independently by the Donor Advised Fund Research Collaborative. The report provides a comprehensive, data-driven look at how donor-advised funds are used nationwide and what those patterns reveal about charitable giving today.

A donor-advised fund functions much like a charitable savings account. Donors contribute assets, receive an immediate tax deduction and then recommend grants to nonprofits over time. This structure allows donors to plan their giving thoughtfully, respond to changing community needs, and manage their philanthropy from one place without administrative complexity.

Throughout the report, donor-advised funds, or DAFs, are examined across different sponsors and communities.

Why independent research matters

Beginning with the 2025 edition, responsibility for the Annual DAF Report shifted to the Donor Advised Fund Research Collaborative, an independent group of scholars specializing in economics and philanthropy. The collaborative includes researchers affiliated with Brigham Young University, DePaul University, Grand Valley State University’s Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthropy, and the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University.

This independence strengthens confidence in the findings because objective research ensures insights are shaped by data rather than marketing priorities or institutional interests. As Dan Heist, co-founder of the Donor Advised Fund Research Collaborative, notes, when donors can trust both the data and the institution helping interpret it, better decisions follow.

“Independent data is most powerful when it’s paired with local context,” Heist said. “Community foundations like the Omaha Community Foundation play a critical connector role by translating national research into insights that help donors act.”

What the data shows locally

The 2025 report draws on data from nearly 1,500 DAF sponsors nationwide, including community foundations, national providers and single-issue charities. The findings show that

Charitable Giving

when DAFs are held at community foundations they often reflect long-term donor relationships, larger average account sizes and consistent grantmaking. Even during periods of market volatility, grantmaking activity remains steady.

This context is especially meaningful for Omaha. In 2025, OCF distributed $315.8 million through approximately 19,000 grants to 3,670 organizations across 2,143 funds, with DAFs serving as a key giving tool for many fundholders.

“What’s interesting about philanthropy in Omaha specifically is that it blends long-term commitment with immediate responsiveness,” Heist said. “Data shows donors here are thinking beyond single transactions and using tools like DAFs to stay adaptable to changing needs in their community.”

The data also helps address common assumptions about DAFs. Public discussions sometimes suggest that charitable dollars are delayed or withheld. National data does not support that view. In 2024, DAF payout rates exceeded 25%, showing that these funds are actively used to support nonprofits and respond to community needs.

Beyond individual giving decisions, the report highlights how charitable giving responds to broader economic conditions. National trends help donors understand how contributions and grantmaking shift over time and how planning can balance immediate needs with longer-term goals.

Omaha’s philanthropic strength is further supported by a strong network of professional advisors, including experts in estate planning, tax law, accounting, investment management and trust services. Omaha is also home to the nation’s largest Chartered Advisor in Philanthropy study group, reinforcing a culture of informed, collaborative charitable planning.

Key findings from the 2025 report help put this context into perspective. Nationwide, DAFs distributed $65 billion in grants in 2024. Overall payout rates exceeded 25%, with community foundation DAFs averaging payout rates above 20%. Despite holding fewer assets than private foundations, DAFs distributed more than half as much in total grant dollars. Community foundation DAFs also continued to reflect larger average account sizes, supporting steady, longterm giving.

Taken together, the 2025 Annual DAF Report offers a clearer picture of how DAFs are used and why they matter. The data shows that these funds consistently move charitable dollars into communities, even during uncertain economic times. By replacing assumptions with evidence, the research gives donors practical insight into how their giving fits within broader trends and how thoughtful, informed philanthropy can strengthen nonprofits and communities over time.

BUSINESS news Beef Passport Kicks Off

COUNCIL’S FOURTH ANNUAL PROGRAM LAUNCHES MAY 1

The fourth annual Nebraska Beef Passport launched on May 1 as part of the Nebraska Beef Council’s Beef Month celebration. The Beef Passport will highlight over 40 restaurants and independent meat processors across the state.

“We’re excited to kick off this year’s Beef Passport,” said Adam Wegner, director of marketing for the Nebraska Beef Council. “We’ll have several new locations on the pass including some hidden small-town cafes and a popular burger joint in Omaha. We’ll also be including several Nebraska meat processors again, which were a nice addition to last year’s pass.”

A Beef Passport regular, John Ecklund, is a former winner of the grand prize drawing of $250 in fresh beef.

“This program is quite a learning experience and adventure,” said Ecklund. “It not only supports the beef industry, but it supports the Nebraska economy as well as the mom and pop operations throughout the state.”

Ecklund and his family have plans to make the tour of the state via the Beef Passport again this summer, this time with his daughter and granddaughter who will be visiting from England.

“When we travel, we try to plan our schedule for meals that are on the passport,” Ecklund said. “We know that the food will be good and reasonably priced and the service will be outstanding.”

Beef Passports are available for free on mobile devices or can be printed directly from the website GoodLifeGreatSteaks.org. Beef Passport holders earn points for each visit to participating locations. Points can then be collected and redeemed for prizes offered by the Nebraska Beef Council. Each visit also qualifies the pass holder for a chance to win the grand prize drawing of $250 in fresh beef.

The Nebraska Beef Passport campaign runs May 1 through Sept. 30.

Southwest Iowa Native Honored

PAUL BROOKE, PH.D., NAMED IOWA POET LAUREATE

DES MOINES, Iowa — Paul Brooke, Ph.D., has been named the Iowa Poet Laureate by Gov. Kim Reynolds for the 2026-2028 term, an honorary designation recognizing an outstanding Iowa poet whose work and public engagement elevate poetry across the state. The twoyear appointment celebrates artistic excellence and a commitment to sharing poetry with diverse audiences.

The announcement came during National Poetry Month in April, a time to celebrate the power of poetry and spotlight the writers and programs that bring communities together through the literary arts.

As Iowa Poet Laureate, Brooke will serve as a statewide ambassador for poetry, participating in public readings, educational outreach and community-based literary engagement. The role represents Brooke’s achievement in poetry and creative expression.

A native of southwest Iowa, Brooke grew up in Minden, Treynor and Council Bluffs. His work as a poet, educator and advocate for the literary arts reflects a deep connection to place, culture and the natural world. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated a commitment to mak -

ing poetry accessible and meaningful for audiences of all backgrounds.

“Having been brought up in southern Iowa, I always wanted to be poet laureate,” Brooke said. “Poetry has been a constant in my life — it helps me express wonder, work through fear and loneliness and connect more deeply to the world around me. Poetry matters.”

The Iowa Poet Laureate is selected by the governor from a list of nominees put forth by a volunteer citizen committee. The program is administered by the Iowa Arts Council, part of the Iowa Economic Development Authority, in partnership with Humanities Iowa. The honorary title is awarded to poets whose body of work demonstrates artistic distinction and whose public presence helps advance appreciation for poetry statewide.

Brooke joins a distinguished lineage of Iowa poets who have previously held the honorary designation, contributing to a lasting legacy of literary excellence in the state.

Why Time in the Market Still Wins

Weekly Market Commentary

Market timing has an almost irresistible appeal —step out before the drop, avoid any pain and step back in before the rebound — but real-world markets rarely cooperate with that level of precision. In early March 2026, escalating tensions and the ensuing conflict with Iran sent a wave of uncertainty through global markets. Within weeks, the Nasdaq Composite slipped into correction territory, falling more than 10% from its recent highs as investors reacted to geopolitical risk and shifting expectations.

Sentiment turned cautious quickly, and many were tempted to move to the sidelines. Yet following the announced ceasefire in mid-April, markets rebounded just as quickly and the Nasdaq roared back to new all-time highs within a matter of weeks, leaving those who exited facing the far more difficult question of when to get back in.

That pattern highlights a core challenge: market timing isn’t about being right once, it’s about being right twice. Investors must correctly anticipate both the exit and the reentry, often under conditions of uncertainty and emotion. Meanwhile, some of the market’s strongest gains tend to occur in short, unpredictable bursts, frequently close to periods of peak volatility.

Investors who stayed invested through the recent drawdown didn’t need to make any decisions at all, they simply participated in the recovery as it unfolded. The cost of trying to outguess the market is often paid in missed opportunities rather than avoided losses, particularly when rebounds happen faster than confidence can rebuild.

This is where the power of compounding quietly does its work. An investor who moves in and out of markets introduces friction, uncertainty and the risk of sitting out critical periods of growth. Contrast that with an investor who commits capital and allows it to compound over decades. Over a 30- or 40-year horizon, returns build on themselves and time — not timing — becomes the dominant driver of wealth creation. The discipline to remain invested through uncertainty is what allows compounding to fully take hold.

In the end, the difference is rarely about who made the smartest move in any given moment but who stayed invested long enough for the math to work in their favor.

MIDLANDS LEADERS q&a

SARA MEIS, GOOSMANN LAW FIRM

Midlands Leaders is a weekly section showcasing individuals who are making an impact in the community through their professional and volunteer endeavors. To nominate someone for this piece, email news@mbj.com with the individual’s name, position, company and email.

Bio:

Marketing and communications professional Sara Meis of Goosmann Law Firm hails from Sioux City, Iowa. She earned her degree in communications and business administration from Augustana University and has served as director of client engagement with the firm for the past five years. A passionate community servant, she was recently recognized by United Way of the Midlands with its Good On the Go Volunteer of the Year award.

What led you to your chosen field?

I grew up watching my dad run a construction company for over 30 years, while my mom built her career in real estate; both self-starters with a relentless work ethic. I saw what it takes to build something from the ground up and how much relationships matter along the way.

After college, I had the opportunity to learn and grow alongside a New York Times bestselling author, leadership coach and keynote speaker. It was a unique experience that gave me a front-row seat to how communication, leadership and the overall client experience can transform a business.

Why is giving back important to you personally?

I’m deeply grateful for the support and opportunities I’ve been given, many shaped by the kindness and compassion of others. At the same time, I’m keenly aware that we’re not all dealt the same hand in life. Many individuals and families in our communities rely on the consistency and compassion of volunteers to access basic needs and opportunities.

I believe that when you’ve been given opportunities, there’s a responsibility to help create them for others. Through collaborative efforts like Good On the Go, I’ve had the chance to work with a diverse group of locally based companies and leaders who share the same passion to bring people together and make a tangible impact.

How have you volunteered through United Way of the Midlands?

Over the past 18 months, I’ve had the opportunity to lead and grow our involvement with United Way’s Good On the Go program. Through that work, we’ve hosted eight volunteer events, bringing together more than 130 volunteers to assemble over 3,200 snack packs for local nonprofits including Completely KIDS, Project Harmony, Heartland Hope Mission, Boys &

Girls Club, and City Sprouts. Our partnership with other local businesses has helped expand both the reach and the impact of each event, resulting in nearly $20,500 in combined time and financial investment back into our community.

I also participate in United Way’s Annual Shine Bright event, helping pack hygiene kits for local students, supporting them in starting the school year with confidence and dignity.

If someone is considering volunteering and doesn’t know how to get started or where to reach out, what advice would you have for them? Start with what matters to you. You don’t need to have it all figured out, just show up. Attend an event,

introduce yourself, stay curious; the opportunities to volunteer will most certainly find you.

Your thoughts on being recognized as the Good On the Go Volunteer of the Year?

I’m truly honored by this recognition because it highlights the individual and collective impact we can make when we come together. Every project we’ve led has been powered by people, teammates, partners and volunteers who gave their time and resources without hesitation.

At the end of the day, that’s what makes the difference. Not one person, but a group of people moving in the same direction with a shared purpose.

ARBOR BANK ANNOUNCES KEVIN MUNRO AS EXECUTIVE FOR MARKET STRATEGY IN OMAHA

PAID ANNOUNCEMENTS

Arbor Bank is pleased to announce that Kevin Munro has joined the organization as Executive for Market Strategy in Omaha, focusing on strengthening the bank’s market presence and supporting long-term growth initiatives.

For the past nine years, Munro served as Omaha market president for an Omaha-based community bank. There, he built out the bank’s Omaha commercial, private banking, and retail teams. The successful growth of these operations contributed to the bank being purchased by another financial institution. Prior to this role, Munro held senior leadership positions in Omaha with two large national banking organizations.

In his new role at Arbor Bank, Munro will work closely with leadership and the commercial banking team to further expand the bank’s presence in Omaha.

“I have known and respected the team at Arbor Bank for many years,” Munro said. “This is an incredible opportunity to continue my engagement with the Omaha banking community, contribute to a dynamic organization, and work alongside talented people who are committed to serving the market at a high level.”

“Kevin’s experience and reputation in the Omaha market speaks for itself,” said Brent Blume, Omaha market president. “We are excited to welcome him to Arbor Bank. His leadership and insight will be invaluable as we continue to grow and serve our clients.”

About Arbor Bank

Founded in 1865, Arbor Bank combines the strength of a long-standing community institution with a modern, relationship-first approach to banking. The bank is known for responsive service, local expertise and helping individuals, businesses, and agricultural clients navigate financial decisions with confidence.
