The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the federal income tax rate as follows:
| Years ended December 31,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Tax provision at U.S. federal statutory rates | 21.0 | % |  | 21.0 | % |  | 21.0 | %
State income taxes net of federal benefit | 11.6 |  |  | 12.1 |  |  | 12.9 |

Other | 2.1 |  |  | 1.2 |  |  | (0.3) |
Effective income tax rate | 35.5 | % |  | 47.1 | % |  | 41.1 | %
The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the Federal statutory rate of 21% due to increases from state taxes, non-deductible permanent items, stock-based compensation, gain on sale of investment, and a one-time gain in connection with the December 26, 2023 Spin-Off transaction. This is offset by variable interest entities, change in valuation allowance, and a benefit related to the reversal on deferred taxes on undistributed dividends. The Company had previously recorded deferred tax liabilities related to undistributed dividends for taxpaying groups that could not consolidate under US federal tax law. As a result of the spinoff transaction that occurred on December 26, 2023, the separate taxpaying groups now have the ability to consolidate under US federal tax law, resulting in tax benefits on the future payment of the dividends. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, are shown below (in thousands).

A valuation allowance of $5.9 million and $8.3 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, has been established against the Company’s deferred tax assets related to loss entities the Company cannot consolidate under the federal consolidation rules, as realization of these assets is uncertain. Valuation allowance decreased by $2.4 million in 2023 and increased by $4.3 million in 2022. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had federal and California net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $21.0 million and $44.8 million, respectively. The federal and California net operating loss carryforwards will expire at various dates from 2027 through 2043; however, $5.3 million of the federal net operating loss carryforwards do not expire and can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has determined certain NOLs are limited pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383, but does not anticipate these NOLs will expire before utilization. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. The Company will recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax in California. The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ state and federal income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2022 and for the years ended December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2022, respectively.
