Net deferred tax assets of $24.0 million and $36.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are recorded within "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Subsequently recognized tax benefits relating to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2022 are expected to be allocated to income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company's foreign tax loss carryforwards were $260.6 million and $267.3 million, respectively, and U.S. state tax loss carryforwards were $97.7 million and $73.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $59.8 million which are largely not expected to be utilized in future periods. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 100 U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $61.6 million which are largely not expected to be utilized in future periods. In assessing the Company's ability to realize deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances, as of December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had foreign tax net operating loss carryforwards of $260.6 million, which will expire as follows:
(in thousands) |  | Gross |  | Tax Effected
Year ending December 31, |  |  |  |
2023 |  | $ | 2,244 |  |  | $ | 516 |
2024 |  | 2,247 |  |  | 503 |
2025 |  | 16,533 |  |  | 3,872 |
2026 |  | 17,655 |  |  | 4,106 |
2027 |  | 4,781 |  |  | 1,151 |
Thereafter |  | 18,904 |  |  | 4,941 |
Unlimited |  | 198,253 |  |  | 46,293 |
Total |  | $ | 260,617 |  |  | $ | 61,382 |
In addition, the Company's state tax net operating loss carryforwards of $97.7 million will expire periodically from 2023 through 2042, U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $59.8 million will expire periodically from 2023 through 2032 and U.S. federal research and expenditure credit carryforwards of $3.8 million will expire periodically from 2034 through 2041. The Company has not provided additional deferred taxes with respect to items such as certain foreign exchange gains or losses, foreign withholding taxes or additional state taxes, if any, on undistributed earnings attributable to foreign subsidiaries and it is not practical to determine the income tax liability that would be payable if such earnings were not reinvested indefinitely. Gross undistributed earnings reinvested indefinitely in foreign subsidiaries aggregated approximately $2,063.1 million as of December 31, 2022. Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:
|  | Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands) |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Beginning balance |  | $ | 40,990 |  |  | $ | 39,785 |
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year |  | 6,125 |  |  | 3,815 |
Additions for tax positions of prior years |  | 258 |  |  | — |
Reductions for tax positions of prior years |  | (3,971 | ) |  | (1,998 | )
Settlements |  | (586 | ) |  | — |
Statute of limitations expiration |  | — |  |  | (612 | )
Ending balance |  | $ | 42,816 |  |  | $ | 40,990 |
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, approximately $30.8 million and $29.1 million, respectively, of the unrecognized tax benefits would impact the Company's provision for income taxes and effective income tax rate, if recognized. Total estimated accrued interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes was $8.3 million and $7.2 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The following income tax years remain open in the Company's major jurisdictions as of December 31, 2022:
Jurisdictions | Periods
U.S. (Federal) | 2014 through 2022
Germany | 2016 through 2022
Greece | 2013 through 2022
Spain | 2015 through 2022
U.K. | 2018 through 2022
It is reasonably possible that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits could significantly change within the next twelve months as a result of the resolution of audit examinations and expirations of certain statutes of limitations and, accordingly, materially affect the Company's operating results. At this time, it is not possible to estimate the range of change due to the uncertainty of potential outcomes.
