The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company had foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $12.1 million as of December 31, 2024, of which $11.7 million have a 15-year carryforward period and $0.4 million have an unlimited carryforward period. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the net operating losses result in deferred tax assets of $2.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and were subject to a valuation allowance of $2.5 million and $0, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a foreign deferred tax asset of $10.7 million, which is subject to a valuation allowance of $8.2 million. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had a foreign deferred tax asset of $9.4 million, which was subject to a valuation allowance of $7.0 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had accumulated undistributed earnings generated by the Company's foreign subsidiaries of $295.5 million. These earnings have already been subject to U.S. tax, so any further taxes associated with such earnings would generally be limited to foreign withholding and state taxes. The Company has recorded a deferred tax liability for these, except in the jurisdictions where the Company intends to indefinitely reinvest the earnings. UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including major jurisdictions such as Canada, China, France, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, and the U.S.. The Company has effectively settled France tax examinations of all years through 2016, Canadian tax examinations of all years through 2018, China tax examinations of all years through 2018, U.S. tax examinations of all years through 2018, Japanese tax examinations of all years through 2019, and Swiss tax examinations of all years through 2019. The Korean National Tax Service concluded an audit of the Company's 2009 through 2013 corporate income tax returns in 2014, an audit of the Company's 2014 corporate income tax return in 2016, and an audit of 2016 through 2020 corporate income tax returns in 2022. Due to the nature of the findings in the 2009 through 2014 audits, the Company has invoked the Mutual Agreement Procedures outlined in the U.S.-Korean income tax treaty. The Company does not anticipate that adjustments relative to these findings, or any other ongoing tax audits, will result in material impacts to its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Other than the findings and audits previously noted, the Company is not currently under examination in any other major jurisdiction. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
|  | Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands) |  | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Balance at beginning of year |  | $ | 10,318 |  |  | $ | 10,177 |  |  | $ | 13,855 |
Increases related to prior year tax positions |  | 264 |  |  | 578 |  |  | 234 |
Decreases related to prior year tax positions |  | (307) |  |  | — |  |  | (1,646) |
Increases related to current year tax positions |  | 1,247 |  |  | 1,376 |  |  | 1,355 |
Expiration of statute of limitations |  | (1,458) |  |  | (1,813) |  |  | (3,621) |
Balance at end of year |  | $ | 10,064 |  |  | $ | 10,318 |  |  | $ | 10,177 |
Due to the potential for resolution of income tax audits currently in progress, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits balance may change within the twelve months following December 31, 2024 by a range of zero to $1.7 million. Open tax years, including those previously mentioned, contain matters that could be subject to differing interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations as they relate to the amount, timing, or inclusion of revenue and expenses or the sustainability of income tax credits for a given examination cycle. Unrecognized tax benefits of $8.8 million, $9.2 million and $9.2 million would affect the effective tax rate if recognized as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognizes interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters in Income tax expense. The Company recognized a net increase of interest and penalties of $0.8 million and $2.7 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively, and a net decrease of interest and penalties of $0.8 million in 2022, all of which related to uncertain tax positions. The Company had $5.3 million and $4.5 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
