Pension Benefits
11. PENSION BENEFITS
The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans, which generally provide benefits based on negotiated amounts for each year of service. The Company’s primary plans are located in Mexico, Germany, Portugal and Turkey. Certain Mexican plans are funded. Certain of the Company’s Mexican plans, as well as the Turkey plan, provide for benefits payable to employees immediately upon separation. The obligations for these plans are recorded over the requisite service period. The Company does not have any U.S. pension assets or liabilities.
In the third and fourth quarters of 2025, in advance of the Spin-Off, certain plans that were previously sponsored by Aptiv and accounted for as multiemployer plans were legally separated and allocated to the Company. In addition, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, liabilities related to inactive employees in Germany under an Aptiv-sponsored plan that had not yet been legally transferred to the Company due to regulatory reasons were attributed to the Company. Prior to completion of the legal transfer, Aptiv will pay the benefits due to these inactive employees on behalf of Versigent and Versigent will reimburse Aptiv. The legal transfer is expected to be completed by the end of 2026.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded a curtailment loss of $4 million resulting from a workforce reduction related to a planned closure of a European manufacturing site.
The amounts shown below reflect the defined benefit pension expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

Multiemployer Pension Plans
As described in Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies, prior to the legal split of plans in 2025, certain of the Company’s employees, primarily in Mexico and Germany, participated in the Shared Plans sponsored by Aptiv. The Company recorded expense of approximately $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, to record its allocation of pension benefit service costs related to the Shared Plans.
