The tax effects of the basis differences between tax and financial reporting purposes for assets, liabilities and loss carry forwards as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 for continuing operations are summarized below for major balance sheet captions (in millions):

Deferred tax assets were $221 million before valuation allowances of $44 million, resulting in $177 million of net deferred tax assets which are partially offset by deferred tax liabilities of $10 million at December 31, 2024. Deferred tax assets for continuing operations were $227 million before valuation allowances of $53 million, resulting in $175 million of net deferred tax assets which are partially offset by deferred tax liabilities for continuing operations of $8 million at December 31, 2023. The net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was a decrease of $9 million and $10 million, respectively. There were no deferred tax liabilities for discontinued operations at December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company’s Provision for (benefit from) income taxes is different from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes. The reasons for the difference are summarized as follows (in millions):
|  | Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |

The Company’s effective tax rate was 17.8%, 10.9% and 18.1% for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In November 2023, the Company concluded discussions with the Swiss cantonal taxing authorities with respect to the availability of future tax deductions resulting in the Company meeting the recognition criteria to record a deferred tax asset of $42 million. The Company considers foreign earnings that have been taxed in the U.S. and certain earnings that have qualified for the high tax exception not to be indefinitely reinvested and thus, has accrued foreign income and withholding, U.S. federal and state tax expense with respect to such earnings. The Company plans to indefinitely reinvest all undistributed foreign earnings in excess of those previously taxed in the U.S. which is approximately $146 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. At this time, determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to the Company’s investment in non-U.S. subsidiaries is not practicable. At December 31, 2024, the Company has state net operating loss carry forward deferred tax assets of $38 million available to reduce future taxable income and income taxes in various states, substantially all of which is offset by valuation allowances and the majority will expire at various dates through 2044. The Company has approximately $460 million of foreign operating loss carry forwards. The following operating loss carry forwards do not expire: $237 million in Germany, $148 million in Italy and $26 million in Spain. The remaining operating loss carry forwards of $49 million are partially offset by valuation allowances and the majority do not expire. Also, the Company has an Indian capital loss carry forward of $3 million expiring before 2026 and an Australian capital loss carry forward of $11 million which does not expire; both are offset by valuation allowances. The Company does not have any material tax credit carry forwards. The Company made total net income tax payments of $79 million, $86 million and $20 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, Other current assets included net income tax receivable amounts of $27 million and $11 million, respectively. The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits (in millions).

The Company files income tax returns, including returns for its subsidiaries, with federal, state, local and foreign taxing jurisdictions. The following tax years as described below remain subject to examination by the respective major tax jurisdictions. The Company believes it is reasonably possible the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits disclosed as of December 31, 2024 may decrease approximately $12 million in the year ending December 31, 2025. Such possible decrease relates primarily to anticipated tax audit settlements and expiration of statutes of limitation.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $18 million and $6 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits. Of the $18 million at December 31, 2024, $5 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. Potential interest and penalties were a liability of $3 million and $1 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the total tax expense recognized was immaterial as the $1 million liability for interest and penalties was recorded to goodwill as a result of purchase accounting. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized total tax expense of $1 million for interest and penalties.
