The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was (1,267.9)% compared to a (346.8)% effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023. The change in the year-over-year effective tax rate was primarily due to state taxes, foreign operations, transaction costs and changes in the valuation allowance on the Company’s 163(j) interest expense limitation deferred tax asset. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 was (346.8)% compared to a 42.8% effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2022. The change in the year-over-year effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in the partial valuation allowance against the Company's excess interest expense carryforward balance, state taxes, foreign income and a pre-tax loss in 2023. Relative to the U.S. statutory rate, the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2023 was impacted by the items listed above. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities contain the following temporary differences:

At December 31, 2024, the Company had $21.4 million of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) that do not expire, and $50.6 million of state NOLs that expire between 2025 and 2036. At December 31, 2024 the Company had a total valuation allowance of $14.9 million. At December 31, 2023, the valuation allowance was $8.5 million. The change in the valuation allowance during 2024 was primarily related to establishing a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset for Section 163(j) limited interest expense. The Company does not expect that its future taxable income will be sufficient to realize these existing deferred tax assets. Earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. A distribution of these non-U.S. earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise would subject the company to foreign withholding taxes and may subject the Company to U.S. federal and state taxes. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability related to indefinitely reinvested profits is not feasible primarily due the Company’s legal entity structure and the complexity of U.S. tax laws. Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI) is a deemed amount of income derived from controlled foreign corporations (CFCs) in which a U.S. person is a 10% direct or indirect shareholder. The Company owns numerous CFCs, which are subject to GILTI inclusion. However, because several of the CFCs operate in countries with a high tax rate, notably Canada, Denmark and Mexico, it was determined that a Section 954 High Tax Exception to GILTI inclusions is appropriate. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
| December 31,
(in thousands) | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Balance at beginning of year | $ | 2,734 |  |  | $ | 3,027 |  |  | $ | — |
Additions for tax positions of current year | 595 |  |  | — |  |  | 191 |
Additions for tax positions of prior years | — |  |  | 503 |  |  | 3,741 |
Reductions for tax positions of prior year | (152) |  |  | — |  |  | (238) |
Lapse of statute of limitations | (815) |  |  | (796) |  |  | (667) |
Balance at end of year | $ | 2,362 |  |  | $ | 2,734 |  |  | $ | 3,027 |
The recognition of the unrecognized tax benefits would have a favorable effect on the effective tax rate. The unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 included $1.1 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate in future periods. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total amount accrued for interest and penalties in the liability for uncertain tax positions was $1.1 million, $0.8 million and $0.9 million as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. It is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months; however, the Company does not expect the change to have a material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) or the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest and penalties are recognized over uncertain tax positions that arose from income tax matters in Canada. The Company has substantially concluded all Canadian income tax matters through the year ended December 31, 2016. Years 2017 through present are open and subject to examination. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2024, the Company was subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for the years 2021 through 2023 and income tax examinations from various other jurisdictions for the years
