​ The company is subject to taxation of GILTI on foreign subsidiaries and a tax provision to deduct a portion of FDII of U.S. corporations. GILTI tax expense, accounted for as a current period cost, net of FDII benefit, resulted in a net tax expense (benefit) of $4.7 million, $23.0 million, and $(7.4) million during 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024, a short-term tax payable of $6.9 million was recorded in the consolidated balance sheets for a one-time transition tax on the foreign subsidiaries’ accumulated unremitted earnings related to the 2017 U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. At December 31, 2024, the company had a liability for unrecognized tax positions of $64.0 million. The timing of the resolution of these uncertain tax positions is dependent on the tax authorities’ income tax examination processes. Material changes are not expected; however, it is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits with respect to uncertain tax positions could increase or decrease during 2025. Currently, the company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of when cash settlement would occur and how it would impact the effective tax rate. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31 is as follows: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
(thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Balance at beginning of year | ​ | $ | 82,808 | ​ | $ | 75,666 | ​ | $ | 71,422
Additions based on tax positions taken during a prior period | ​ |  | 4,537 | ​ |  | 7,466 | ​ |  | 6,760
Reductions based on tax positions taken during a prior period | ​ |  | (20,245) | ​ |  | (4,448) | ​ |  | (3,007)
Additions based on tax positions taken during the current period | ​ |  | 7,943 | ​ |  | 5,505 | ​ |  | 3,526
Reductions related to settlement of tax matters | ​ |  | (11,090) | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | (2,271)
Reductions related to a lapse of applicable statute of limitations | ​ |  | — | ​ |  | (1,381) | ​ |  | (764)
Balance at end of year | ​ | $ | 63,953 | ​ | $ | 82,808 | ​ | $ | 75,666
​ Interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as a component of “Interest and other financing expense, net” in the company’s consolidated statements of operations. In 2024, 2023, and 2022, the company recognized $5.9 million, $4.0 million, and $4.4 million, respectively, of interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the company had accrued a liability of $23.5 million and $17.5 million, respectively, for interest related to unrecognized tax benefits. In many cases the company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by tax authorities. The following describes the open tax years, by major tax jurisdiction, as of December 31, 2024: ​

Deferred income taxes are provided for the effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated balance sheets. These temporary differences result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following at December 31: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

(a) | At December 31, 2024, and 2023, the company recorded deferred tax asset of $74.0 million and $59.3 million related to capitalized U.S. based research and experimental (“R&E”) costs, pursuant to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 174, as amended by the 2017 U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
At December 31, 2024, the company had international tax loss carryforwards of approximately $30.3 million, of which $7.0 million have expiration dates ranging from 2025 to 2044, and the remaining $23.3 million have no expiration date. Deferred tax assets related to these international tax loss carryforwards were $7.8 million with a corresponding valuation allowance of $2.6 million. At December 31, 2024, the company had a valuation allowance of $0.1 million related to other deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2024, the company had deferred tax assets of approximately $8.7 million with a corresponding valuation allowance of $6.4 million, related to U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are needed when deferred tax assets may not be realized due to the uncertainty of the timing and the ability of the company to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions. At December 31, 2024, the company had approximately $5.4 billion in undistributed foreign earnings which it deems to be indefinitely reinvested, and approximately $2.0 billion in undistributed foreign earnings which it deems to be not permanently reinvested. The company recognizes that if it reverses its indefinite reinvestment assertion on $5.4 billion of foreign earnings, it may be subject to additional foreign taxes and U.S. state income taxes. ​ Income taxes paid, net of income taxes refunded, amounted to $230.5 million, $538.4 million, and $384.4 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
