We establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income. We considered projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and reversal of taxable temporary differences in making this assessment.
Based on available evidence, we have determined that a valuation allowance is required as of December 31, 2025, and 2024 against the net of our deferred tax assets and liabilities to the extent that only a deferred tax liability related to indefinite-lived goodwill remains on our consolidated balance sheets on December 31, 2025, and 2024.
On December 31, 2025, for federal income tax purposes, there was approximately a $76.0 million net operating loss available to be carried forward to offset future taxable income. Approximately $10.6 million of these net operating loss carryforwards expire in 2037, the remaining will be carried forward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2025, there was approximately $6.1 million of R&D credit carryover which begins to expire in 2033. Certain tax attributes of the Company, including net operating losses and credits, would be subject to a limitation should an ownership change as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, occur. The limitations resulting from a change in ownership could affect the Company's ability to utilize its tax attributes. A study was completed in 2020 which confirmed that no limitation applies to the Company's tax attributes as of December 31, 2020. We believe that ownership activity since December 31, 2020, would not result in limitation sufficient to result in the expiration of unused attributes.
Under the provision of ASC 740, we determined that the unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025, and 2024 were approximately $1.5 million for both periods. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the tax benefits that, if recognized, would not impact the effective tax rate due to the Company's valuation allowance (as included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits) were $1.5 million for both periods. We report interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. There was no accrued interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025, and 2024. We believe that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will not significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. The period for which tax years are open with regards to unrecognized tax benefits, 2014 to 2025, has not been extended beyond the applicable statute of limitations.
We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other tax authorities. The applicable statute of limitations is no longer open for audit or examination for the years before 2022 for federal income taxes in the U.S. We were notified by the IRS in September 2024 regarding an audit of our 2021 federal income tax return. In April 2025, the IRS notified us that it had completed its examination of our 2021 federal income tax return with no changes to our reported tax.
