U.S. Defined Contribution Pension Plan - The Company has a defined contribution plan qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, pursuant to which substantially all of its U.S. employees are eligible to participate after completing six months of service. Participants may elect to contribute a portion of their compensation to the plan. Under the plan, the Company has the discretion to match a portion of participants’ contributions. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not make any matching contributions.

Most of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries provide for government-mandated defined pension benefits. For certain of these non-U.S. subsidiaries, vested eligible employees are provided a lump sum payment upon retiring from the Company at a defined age. The lump sum amount is based on the salary and tenure as of retirement date. Other non-U.S. subsidiaries provide for a lump sum payment to vested employees on retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, based upon the salary and tenure as of the date employment ceases. The liability for such defined benefit obligations is determined and provided on the basis of actuarial valuations. As of June 30, 2026, these plans were unfunded. Pension expense for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries totaled approximately $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
