The Company has not recorded deferred income taxes on the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries because of management’s intent to indefinitely reinvest such earnings. At December 31, 2015, the aggregate undistributed earnings of the foreign subsidiaries amounted to $40.2 million. If the Company were to distribute these earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. The unrecognized deferred income tax liability on this temporary difference is estimated to be approximately $6.2 million at December 31, 2015. Income tax provision (benefit) consisted of the following for the years ended December 31:

Deferred income taxes reflect the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and tax credit carry forwards. The net deferred tax liabilities consisted of the following at December 31:

As of December 31, 2015, the Company has federal net operating loss carry forwards of $19.9 million, and state and local net operating loss carry forwards of $14.8 million, which expire from 2018 to 2032. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance on certain of these net operating loss carry forwards to reflect expected realization. The Company also has net operating loss carry forwards in international jurisdictions totaling $5.7 million. A full valuation allowance has been established against substantially all of these losses. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company has recorded a valuation reserve in the amount of $1.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The changes in the valuation allowance resulted in additional income tax expense of $0.6 million, $0.1 million, and $8,000 in 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carry forward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on this assessment, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances at December 31, 2015. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 740. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The reserve for uncertain tax positions is not expected to change significantly in the next twelve months. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of uncertain tax position reserves included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is as follows:
(Table only in thousands) |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Balance as of January 1, |  | $ | 1,166 |  |  | $ | 763 |
Additions for tax positions current year |  |  | — |  |  |  | 188 |
Additions for tax positions taken in prior years |  |  | 50 |  |  |  | 266 |
Additions for tax positions of acquired company |  |  | 1,139 |  |  |  | — |
Reductions for settlements on tax positions of acquired company |  |  | (165 | ) |  |  | — |
Reductions for settlements on tax positions of prior years |  |  | (1,166 | ) |  |  | (51 | )
Balance as of December 31, |  | $ | 1,024 |  |  | $ | 1,166 |
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. During 2015, 2014, and 2013, there was no such expense for interest and penalties. The favorable settlement of all uncertain tax positions would impact the Company’s effective income tax rate. Tax years going back to 2014 remain open for examination by Federal authorities, and back to 2010 remain open for all significant state and foreign authorities.
