For the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $963,000 and $269,000, respectively. The increase in the Company’s provision for income taxes as of December 31, 2022 is due to higher earnings during the current period, return-to-provision adjustments arising from foreign tax returns filed during the current period, as well as permanent domestic tax differences. The components of the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 consists of the following:
|  | YEARS ENDED December 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate (21% in 2022 and 2021) to income before taxes as follows:
|  | YEARS ENDED December 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |

Non-deductible expenses |  |  | (25,000 | ) |  |  | 28,000 |
Return to provision true-up |  |  | 52,000 |  |  |  | 19,000 |
Uncertain tax positions |  |  | (17,000 | ) |  |  | 14,000 |
AMT tax payable adjustment |  |  | 208,000 |  |  |  | — |
Change in valuation allowance |  |  | — |  |  |  | 19,000 |
Other deferred tax adjustments |  |  | 168,000 |  |  |  | 41,000 |
|  | $ | 963,000 |  |  | $ | 269,000 |
As of December 31, 2022, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax return purposes of approximately $0 and $2,604,000 that begin to expire in 2029. Utilization of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and similar state provisions. Any annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits before utilization. At December 31, 2022, the Company has a capital loss carryforward for federal income tax return purposes of approximately $2,679,000,which starts to expire in 2024. The Company has capital loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $129,000, which starts to expire in 2024. Due to uncertainty surrounding the realization of impairment losses, capital losses and foreign operating losses in future years, the Company has placed a valuation allowance against a portion of its net domestic and foreign deferred tax assets. The net valuation allowance increased by $0 and $19,000 for the tax years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The tax return years 2018 through 2021 remain open to examination by the major domestic taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Net operating losses generated on a tax return basis by the Company for calendar years 1999 through 2004, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 remain open to examination by the major domestic taxing jurisdictions. The Company has adopted accounting standards which prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a company’s income tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Additionally, these accounting standards specify that tax positions for which the timing of the ultimate resolution is uncertain should be recognized as long-term liabilities. The Company has made no reclassifications between current taxes payable and long term taxes payable under this guidance. As of December 31, 2022, the unrecognized tax benefit was $278,000 which, if recognized, will not affect the annual effective tax rate as these unrecognized tax benefits would increase deferred tax assets, which would be subject to a full valuation allowance. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefit is as follows:
|  | YEARS ENDED December 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Balance at beginning of year |  | $ | 295,000 |  |  | $ | 275,000 |
Additions based on tax positions of prior years |  |  | (17,000 | ) |  |  | 20,000 |
Balance at end of year |  | $ | 278,000 |  |  | $ | 295,000 |
The Company’s policy for deducting interest and penalties is to treat interest as interest expense and penalties as income taxes. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $43,000 accrued for the payment of penalties and zero interest related to unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect any material changes to our uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $100,000 in unrecognized tax benefits related to foreign taxes may be necessary within the coming year.
