The table below provides a rollforward of the valuation allowance:
| Year Ended December 31,
| 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Beginning balance | $ | 127.2 |  |  | $ | 150.2 |  |  | $ | 151.3 |

The Company has U.S. federal tax loss carryforwards of approximately $88.6, which expire periodically through 2037, as well as post-2017 carryforwards of $148.7, which have indefinite carryforwards. The Company has U.S. state tax loss carryforwards of $660.7, a portion of which expire annually. In addition to federal and state net operating losses, the Company has a federal capital loss carryforward of $12.0, which expires in 2030.

The Company has foreign tax loss carryforwards of $112.4, the majority of which have indefinite carryforwards, as well as foreign tax loss carryforwards of $444.9, which expire periodically through 2041. In addition to the foreign net operating losses, the Company has foreign capital loss carryforwards of $30.5, which have indefinite carryforwards. Deferred tax assets associated with loss and credit carryforwards of $271.6 have been reduced by valuation allowances of $128.1. The valuation allowance increased from $127.2 in 2024 to $128.1 in 2025 primarily due to the establishment of valuation allowances on certain federal and foreign capital losses which were partially offset by decreases in valuation allowances on certain state and foreign net operating losses. Unrecognized income tax benefits were $24.5 and $32.2 at December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in Provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions totaled $0.0 and $0.2 at December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized $0.0, $0.1 and $0.0, respectively, in interest and penalties expense, which was offset by a benefit from reversing previous accruals for interest and penalties of $0.2, $0.0 and $1.8, respectively. The following table shows a reconciliation of the unrecognized income tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, from uncertain tax positions:
| Year Ended December 31,

Beginning balance | $ | 32.2 |  |  | $ | 29.9 |  |  | $ | 37.5 |

Decrease in reserve as a result of lapses in the statute of limitations | — |  |  | (0.2) |  |  | (8.6) |
Ending balance | $ | 24.5 |  |  | $ | 32.2 |  |  | $ | 29.9 |
At December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there are $24.5, $32.2 and $29.9, respectively, of tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective income tax rate. The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2018 and is currently under Internal Revenue Service examination for tax years 2019 through 2022. Substantially all material state and local and foreign income tax matters have been concluded through 2017 and 2019, respectively. The Company has various state and foreign income tax examinations ongoing throughout the year. The Company believes adequate provisions have been recorded related to all open tax years. Pillar Two legislation arising from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s base erosion and profit shifting initiative has been enacted or substantively enacted in certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The legislation was effective for the Company’s financial year beginning January 1, 2024. The Company is in scope of the enacted or substantively enacted legislation and has performed an assessment of the Company’s potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes. The assessment of the potential exposure to Pillar Two income taxes is based on the most recent tax filings, country-by-country reporting, and financial statements for the constituent entities in the Company. Based on the assessment, the Pillar Two effective tax rates in most of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates are above 15%. We expect to qualify for the transitional safe harbor relief in all significant jurisdictions and have not provisioned for any incremental income tax expense attributable to Pillar Two.
