The Company also has state tax net operating losses of $93.4 million, which expire at various times between 2024 and 2043, and foreign losses of $11.8 million, which do not expire. The Company has state income tax credits of $3.5 million, which expire at various times beginning in 2025 through 2043. In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence including past operating results, future taxable income, and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance against any deferred tax assets. The Company has determined there will be insufficient future separate state and foreign taxable income for the separate parent company and foreign subsidiaries to realize the deferred tax assets. Therefore, valuation allowances of $9.9 million and $7.7 million (net of federal impact) at September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, have been provided to reduce state deferred tax assets to amounts considered recoverable. The Company classifies uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities unless expected to be paid within one year. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as a component of pretax income. As of September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, accrued interest was less than $0.1 million and no penalties were accrued related to uncertain tax positions. The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits for fiscal years ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023:
| (in thousands)
Balance as of September 24, 2022 | $ | 382 |
Increases related to prior year tax positions | 222 |
Increases related to current year tax positions | 100 |
Decreases related to prior year tax positions | (10) |
Settlements | (222) |
Decreases related to lapse of statute of limitations | (81) |
Balance as of September 30, 2023 | $ | 391 |

Increases related to current year tax positions | — |
Decreases related to prior year tax positions | (12) |
Settlements | (1) |
Decreases related to lapse of statute of limitations | (84) |
Balance as of September 28, 2024 | $ | 295 |
As of September 28, 2024, unrecognized income tax benefits totaled approximately $0.3 million and all of the unrecognized tax benefits would, if recognized, impact the Company’s effective income tax rate. The Company is principally subject to taxation by the United States and various states within the United States. The Company’s tax filings in major jurisdictions are open to examination by tax authorities by the Internal Revenue Service from fiscal year ended 2021 forward and in various state taxing authorities generally from fiscal year ended 2020 forward. The Company believes there is a reasonable chance that its unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by less than $0.1 million within the next twelve months.
