United States federal statutory rate | 21.0% |  | 21.0% |  | 21.0%
State and local income taxes | (0.2)% |  | 0.8% |  | 1.2%

In 2024, the most significant difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate was the impact of foreign tax rate differences. Foreign tax rate differences resulted in an income tax benefit of $26.4 million, $30.1 million, and $34.4 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Changes in tax contingencies, primarily associated with our foreign tax credit, was another significant difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and our effective tax rate in 2024. If we were to repatriate foreign cash to the U.S., we may be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes in accordance with applicable U.S. tax rules and regulations as a result of the repatriation. However, it is our intent to permanently reinvest the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations and for continued non-U.S. growth opportunities.

The net increase in deferred tax liabilities primarily relates to the deferred tax liabilities associated with the intangible assets of the Precision acquisition. As of December 31, 2024, we had $92.0 million of gross net operating loss carryforwards, $15.1 million of tax credit carryforwards, and $395.7 million of gross capital loss carryforwards. Unless otherwise utilized, net operating loss carryforwards will expire upon the filing of the tax returns for the following respective years: $9.1 million between 2025 and 2027 and $36.5 million between 2028 and 2043. Net operating loss with an indefinite carryforward period total $46.4 million. Of the $92.0 million in net operating loss carryforwards, we have determined, based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, that we will utilize $34.8 million of these net operating loss carryforwards within their respective expiration periods. A valuation allowance has been recorded on the remaining portion of the net operating loss carryforwards. Unless otherwise utilized, tax credit carryforwards of $15.1 million will expire as follows: $0.1 million in 2024, $8.5 million between 2025 and 2027 and $4.0 million between 2028 and 2043. Tax credit carryforwards with an indefinite carryforward period total $2.5 million. We have determined, based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, that we will utilize $11.8 million of these tax credit carryforwards within their respective expiration periods. A valuation allowance has been recorded on the remaining portion of the tax credit carryforwards. Unless otherwise utilized, of the $395.7 million in gross capital loss carryforwards, $351.5 million will expire between 2025 and 2029 and the remaining $44.2 million have an indefinite carryforward period. A full valuation allowance has been recorded as we do not expect to be able to utilize the capital losses. The following tables summarize our net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards as of December 31, 2024 by jurisdiction:
| Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
| (In thousands)
United States - Federal and various states | $ | 39,265 |

In 2024, we recognized a net $8.5 million increase to reserves for uncertain tax positions. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
| 2024 |  | 2023
| (In thousands)
Balance at beginning of year | $ | 7,143 |  |  | $ | 6,180 |
Additions for tax positions of prior years | 9,354 |  |  | 605 |
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | 524 |  |  | 358 |
Reduction for tax positions of prior years | (1,340) |  |  | — |
Balance at end of year | $ | 15,681 |  |  | $ | 7,143 |
The balance of $15.7 million at December 31, 2024 reflects tax positions that, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. Our practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and operating expenses, respectively. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we accrued $0.1 million and $0.0 million for the payment of interest and penalties. Our federal tax return for the tax years 2015 and later remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Our state and foreign income tax returns for the tax years 2014 and later remain subject to examination by various state and foreign tax authorities.
