During 2025, the Plan’s management re-evaluated the fair value hierarchy classification of the investments in common and collective trusts. The Plan’s management determined the investment structure has a readily determinable fair value, and classified the investments as such in the disclosure. The 2024 comparative data has not been modified, and these positions remained recorded as NAV as a practical expedient. The Plan’s management determined that this is not material to the 2024 financial statements, and it does not affect net assets available for benefits as of December 31, 2024, or the change in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended.
There were no transfers in investments between Levels 1 and 2 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Plan’s investments in common and collective trusts, which invest in equities and fixed income securities, may be redeemed at any time without any restrictions. There are no unfunded commitments to acquire additional units of these accounts as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
