At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had net foreign deferred tax liabilities of $8.7 million and $15.4 million, respectively, primarily related to intangible assets, fixed assets, foreign pension obligations, and net operating loss carryforwards net of any related valuation allowances included in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had deferred tax assets recorded related to foreign net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards of $15.2 million, net. This includes $1.7 million related to U.K. entities, $5.1 million related to Italian entities, $7.5 million related to Hong Kong entities, and $0.9 million related to other foreign entities. The net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards have indefinite lives. The foreign valuation allowance for Hong Kong deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $7.5 million and $7.2 million, respectively. Based upon historical results and estimated future results, it is the judgment of management that these tax carryforward attributes related to Hong Kong entities are not likely to be realized. The Company has concluded it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefit of all other existing deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowances mentioned above. Unrecognized Tax Benefits The following table reconciles the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits, at December 31:
(In thousands) | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Balance at beginning of period | $ | 24,395 |  |  | $ | 23,376 |  |  | $ | 20,462 |
Changes in tax positions of prior years | — |  |  | 218 |  |  | — |
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | 1,219 |  |  | 1,195 |  |  | 5,758 |
Decreases due to settlements of liabilities | — |  |  | — |  |  | (904) |
Decreases due to closure of tax years | (699) |  |  | (394) |  |  | (1,940) |
Balance at end of period | $ | 24,915 |  |  | $ | 24,395 |  |  | $ | 23,376 |
In addition, the total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to taxes, recognized as a liability, was $9.6 million, $7.2 million, and $5.1 million at December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal income tax benefits, of $33.9 million, $30.8 million, and $27.5 million at December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively, would, if recognized, increase the Company’s earnings, and lower the Company's annual effective tax rate in the year of recognition. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various states and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examinations by taxing authorities in these jurisdictions. For U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, tax years 2023, 2022, and 2021 remain subject to examination. The Company has assessed its risks associated with all tax return positions and believes its tax reserve estimates reflect its best estimate of the deductions and positions it will be able to sustain, or it may be willing to concede as part of a settlement. At this time, the Company does not anticipate any material change in its tax reserves in the next twelve months. The Company will continue to monitor the progress and conclusion of all audits and will adjust its estimated liability as necessary.
