Unrecognized deferred tax benefit— 49 
Federal income tax expense$2,509 $3,665 
The unrecognized deferred tax benefit recorded during 2023 related to a low income housing tax credit investment. The sale of this investment resulted in a capital loss carryforward that is unlikely to be recognized in the foreseeable future. As such, we
did not recognize a deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 related to our low income housing tax credit investment.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for federal income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, measured at the 21% statutory rate, included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets, are summarized as follows as of December 31:

While we are subject to U.S. federal income tax, we are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2022. There are no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our consolidated financial statements.
We recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. We do not have any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2025 and 2024 and we are not aware of any claims for such amounts by federal income tax authorities.
