Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be required to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, based on the Plan’s principal or, in the absence of principal, most advantageous market for the specific asset or liability.
GAAP provides for a three-level hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, defined as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan can access.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, including:
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and reflect the Plan’s own estimates about the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances (e.g., internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows).
The Plan, in conjunction with the Company, monitors market conditions and evaluates the fair value hierarchy levels at least annually. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the years presented.

Valuation Techniques Used in the Fair Value Measurement of Financial Assets Carried at Fair Value
For the financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis (categorized in the valuation hierarchy table above), the Plan applies the following valuation techniques:
Level 1:
Level 1 investments are valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and include common stocks, mutual funds, money market funds and investments held in self-directed brokerage accounts.
Level 2:
Level 2 investments are valued using observable inputs other than quoted market prices and include fixed income securities and certain common/collective trusts. These investments are valued using pricing models, recent trades of similar securities and other valuation methodologies that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rates, yield curves and credit spreads.
Level 3:
The Plan did not hold any Level 3 investments during the years presented.
Investments Measured at NAV:
Certain common/collective trusts are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient when the inputs used to determine fair value are not readily observable. These investments are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy. The NAV is determined by the investment managers or trustees and reflects the fair value of the underlying net assets.
The Plan’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period, and as of the end of 2025, $830 million of common/collective trust investments previously measured using NAV as a practical expedient were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy due to the availability of observable market inputs. The change in classification did not have a material impact on the measurement of fair value.
