We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized no interest and penalties. We recognized less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, of interest and penalties. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had no unrecognized tax benefits. We do not expect a significant change to the unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months.

We file tax returns in the U.S. and in various state, local, and non-U.S. jurisdictions. The following table summarizes the earliest tax years that remain subject to examination by taxing authorities in any major jurisdiction in which we operate:

	Earliest Open Tax Period
United States – Federal	2012
United States – State and Local	2004
Non-United States Jurisdictions	2011

We use the liability method for reporting income taxes, under which current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded in accordance with enacted tax laws and rates. Under this method, at the end of each period, the amounts of deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes are actually paid or recovered. We establish a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, in determining whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a

valuation allowance is needed for some portion or all of our deferred tax assets. In determining the need for a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets we placed greater weight on recent and objectively verifiable current information, as compared to more forward-looking information that is used in valuating other assets on the balance sheet. While we have considered taxable income in prior carryback years, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to realize our net deferred tax assets. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

	December 31,
	2022		2021
	(In Thousands)
Net operating losses	$	105,131	$	114,597
Accruals	20,604		16,500
Depreciation and amortization for book in excess of tax expense	9,163		10,965
All other	10,512		11,913
Total deferred tax assets	145,410		153,975
Valuation allowance	(122,188)		(127,058)
Net deferred tax assets	$	23,222	$	26,917

	December 31,
	2022		2021
	(In Thousands)
Right of use asset	$	8,049	$	7,071
Depreciation and amortization for tax in excess of book expense	8,612		14,037
Investment in Partnership	4,906		5,471
All other	3,693		2,007
Total deferred tax liabilities	25,260		28,586
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	2,038	$	1,669

We believe that it is more likely than not we will not realize all the tax benefits of the deferred tax assets within the allowable carryforward period. Therefore, an appropriate valuation allowance has been provided. The valuation allowance as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 primarily relates to federal deferred tax assets. The $4.9 million decrease in the valuation allowance during the year ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to the decrease in deferred tax assets related to utilization of loss carryforwards.

At December 31, 2022, we had federal, state, and foreign net operating loss carryforwards/carrybacks equal to approximately $86.2 million, $11.1 million, and $7.8 million, respectively. In those countries and states in which net operating losses are subject to an expiration period, our loss carryforwards, if not utilized, will expire at various dates from 2023 through 2042. Utilization of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to a significant annual limitation due to ownership changes that have occurred previously or could occur in the future provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
