In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company evaluates whether a valuation allowance should be established against the net deferred tax assets based upon the consideration of all available evidence and using a “more-likely than-not” standard. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and losses expected in the near future. The Company’s U.S. federal consolidated filing group includes certain international entities. Based upon results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, it is determined that it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit from the U.S. federal, consolidated filing state, Newegg separate filing state, and Magnell separate filing state net deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against those net deferred tax assets for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company maintains valuation allowances against certain non-US loss corporations. Total valuation allowance against U.S. and non-U.S. deferred tax assets was $28.4 million and $25.7 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2024, the Company has federal net operating losses (“NOL”) carryforward of $51.6 million and $60.5 million of apportioned state NOL carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income, subject to the 80% NOL rule introduced by the TCJA of 2017. The state NOL carryforwards begin to expire in 2028. The Company has $0.6 million of NOL carryforwards in China as of December 31, 2024. The Company has $8.4 million of NOL carryforwards in Taiwan, which will begin to expire in 2026. A partial valuation allowance was recorded on the NOLs in Taiwan. The Company has not provided for deferred income taxes on undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries, as these amounts are considered indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. It is not practicable to determine the estimated income tax liability that might apply if these earnings were to be repatriated. A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:
|  | Year ended December 31, |
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Federal taxes at statutory rate |  |  | 21.00 | % |  |  | 21.00 | % |  |  | 21.00 | %
State taxes, net of federal benefit |  |  | 2.63 |  |  |  | 2.50 |  |  |  | 2.48 |
Permanent items: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Other nondeductible items |  |  | 0.14 |  |  |  | (0.35 | ) |  |  | (0.30 | )
Subpart F income |  |  | (0.57 | ) |  |  | (1.55 | ) |  |  | (0.80 | )
Stock-based compensation |  |  | (12.87 | ) |  |  | (10.94 | ) |  |  | (10.88 | )

Foreign rate differential and foreign tax credits |  |  | 1.36 |  |  |  | (1.39 | ) |  |  | (0.74 | )
Canada Provision |  |  | — |  |  |  | 1.92 |  |  |  | — |
Change in valuation allowance – U.S. Federal |  |  | (5.24 | ) |  |  | (5.61 | ) |  |  | (34.09 | )
Change in valuation allowance – U.S. States |  |  | (2.89 | ) |  |  | (0.07 | ) |  |  | (11.17 | )
Change in valuation allowance – Foreign |  |  | 1.99 |  |  |  | 3.18 |  |  |  | 0.96 |
Change in uncertainty tax position (“FIN48”) |  |  | 0.51 |  |  |  | (2.54 | ) |  |  | (0.10 | )
Other |  |  | (0.94 | ) |  |  | (0.86 | ) |  |  | (0.01 | )
Effective tax rate |  |  | 2.87 | % |  |  | 4.35 | % |  |  | (32.08 | )%
The significant items that caused the effective tax rate change related to stock based compensation and the changes in valuation allowance. Uncertain Tax Positions As of the end of fiscal year 2024, the total liability for income tax associated with unrecognized tax benefits was $4.2 million. The Company’s effective tax rate will be affected by any portion of this liability we may recognize. The Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that any of the uncertain tax benefits will be recognized in the next 12 months. As such, all uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest, have been classified as long-term taxes payable on the consolidated balance sheets. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of uncertain tax positions is as follows (in thousands):
|  | Year ended December 31, |
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Beginning balance |  | $ | 4,242 |  |  | $ | 1,606 |
Additions based on tax positions related to the prior year |  |  | 101 |  |  |  | 2,592 |
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year |  |  | — |  |  |  | 126 |
Reduction based on tax position related to settlements with taxing authorities |  |  | (105 | ) |  |  | (62 | )
Reductions based on tax position related to a lapse of the applicable statute of limitation |  |  | — |  |  |  | (20 | )
Ending balance |  | $ | 4,238 |  |  | $ | 4,242 |
The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as tax expense. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were not material. The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return in the United States, as well as combined and separate U.S. state income tax returns. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are subject to income tax in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Canada. The Company is still subject to examination for federal income tax returns for the years 2020 through 2024, for certain U.S. state income tax returns for the years 2017 through 2024, and for certain foreign income tax returns for the years 2013 through 2024. In 2023, the Company settled the examinations with the Internal Revenue Service for the years 2012 through 2014 and with the California Franchise Tax Board for the years 2007 through 2012. The Company is currently undergoing income tax examinations with the Internal Revenue Service for tax year 2022 and Canadian GST/HST audit for tax years 2022 and 2023.
