(ii) In March 2024, the company purchased a group annuity contract, with plan assets, for approximately $195 million to transfer projected benefit obligations related to approximately 3,800 retirees of one of the company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans. This action resulted in a pre-tax settlement loss of $132.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company made cash contributions of $287.2 million to its global defined benefit pension plans including a discretionary contribution of $250 million to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. The discretionary contribution was funded approximately through $200 million from the net proceeds of the 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2031, and $50 million from cash on hand. See Note 11 for additional details on the issuance and use of the net proceeds of the 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2031. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the company made cash contributions of $10.3 million primarily related to its international defined benefit pension plans.
For the remainder of 2025, the company expects to make cash contributions of approximately $55 million primarily to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans, resulting in total 2025 expected cash contributions of approximately $342 million to its global defined benefit pension plans, which are comprised of approximately $314 million for the company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans and approximately $28 million for the company’s international defined benefit pension plans.
In 2024, the company made cash contributions of $21.9 million primarily to its international defined benefit pension plans.
At the end of each year, the company estimates its future cash contributions to its global defined benefit pension plans based on year-end pension data, assumptions and agreements. Any material deterioration in the value of the company’s global defined benefit pension plan assets, as well as changes in pension legislation, volatility in the capital markets, discount rate changes,
asset return changes, or changes in economic or demographic trends, could require the company to make cash contributions in different amounts and on a different schedule than previously estimated.
