For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a total income tax benefit of $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Accordingly, the effective tax rate for the Company for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 0.6% and 0.5%, respectively. A reconciliation of the anticipated income tax expense/(benefit) computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to loss before income taxes to the amount reported in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss is as follows:

Future realization of the tax benefits of existing temporary differences and carryforwards ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company performed an
evaluation to determine whether a valuation allowance was needed. Based on the Company’s analysis, which considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that a significant portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. The valuation allowance increased by $0.7 million in 2024 and $44.9 million in 2023, primarily due to the increase in net operating loss carryforwards.
Under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income may be limited. Generally, an ownership change occurs when certain shareholders increase their aggregated ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage in a testing period (typically three years). Future changes in stock ownership, which may be outside of the Company’s control, may trigger an ownership change. In addition, future equity offerings or acquisitions that have an equity component of the purchase price could result in an ownership change. If an ownership change has occurred or does occur in the future, utilization of the NOL carryforwards or other tax attributes may be limited.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:
As of December 31,
20242023
Unrecognized tax benefits – January 1$718 $718 
Gross increases – tax positions in current period— — 
Unrecognized tax benefits – December 31$718 $718 
To the extent penalties and interest would be assessed on any underpayment of income tax, the Company’s policy is that such amounts would be accrued and classified as a component of income tax expense in the financial statements. The Company had a nominal amount of accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Company files income tax returns for U.S federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions, and various foreign countries. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal, state and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. There are currently no pending federal, state or foreign income tax examinations. As a result of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards, the Company’s federal and state statutes of limitations remain open from 2016 and forward until the net operating loss carryforwards are utilized or expire prior to utilization.
