Excluded from the table above is the net periodic pension cost associated with an unfunded defined benefit pension plan in Germany that was not included as part of prior dispositions. This plan is reported as a component of our Unallocated Corporate segment. Net periodic pension cost for this plan was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

The service cost component of net benefit cost has been presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income within cost of goods sold and SG&A expenses for all periods presented, which are the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income separately from the service cost component within other non-operating income, net.
