 The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company carried a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets of $217.7 million and $217.3 million, respectively. These amounts are primarily related to deferred tax assets related to the Company’s capital loss carryforward resulting from the U.K. Sale and certain state net operating losses. If the capital loss carryforward is not utilized, it will begin to expire in 2026.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no federal net operating loss carryforwards. The foreign net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and have no expiration.

The Company has state net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2022 and 2021 of approximately $191.5 million and $227.3 million, respectively. These net operating loss carryforwards, if not used to offset future taxable income, will expire from 2023 to 2036. In addition, the Company has certain state tax credits of $0.2 million which will begin to expire in 2030 if not utilized.

Income taxes receivable was $28.9 million and $24.6 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, $23.1 million of income taxes receivable has been included in other assets due to anticipated delays in receipt of income tax refunds associated with amended tax return filings. The remaining $5.8 million and $1.5 million of income taxes receivable is included in other current assets in the December 31, 2022 and 2021 consolidated balance sheet, respectively. Income taxes payable of $1.3 million and $5.5 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was included in other accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company did not record any amounts related to unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2022 or 2021. The Company’s accounting policy is to record any interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense, when applicable. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized income tax benefits, exclusive of any interest and penalties, net of the federal benefit, is as follows (in thousands):

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in federal and in many state and local jurisdictions as well as foreign jurisdictions. The Company may be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for calendar years 2019 through 2021. Additionally, any net operating losses that were generated in prior years and utilized in these years may also be subject to examination by the IRS. While no foreign jurisdictions are presently under examination, the Company may be subject to examination for calendar years 2018 through 2021. Generally, for state tax purposes, the Company’s 2017 through 2021 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities. At the date of this report, there were no audits or inquires that had progressed sufficiently to predict their ultimate outcome.
