Note 17. Employee Benefits

​

401(k) Plan

​

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan, or the Plan, whereby eligible employees voluntarily contribute up to a defined percentage of their annual compensation. The Company matches contributions at a rate of 50% on the first 6% of employee contributions, and pays the administrative costs of the Plan. Total employer contributions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 were approximately $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, compared to the prior year expense of $0.4 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

​

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

​

The Company’s subsidiary, AFP, has an obligation associated with a defined-benefit plan for its eligible employees. This plan provides benefits to the employees from the date of retirement and is based on the employee’s length of time employed by the Company. The calculation is based on a statistical calculation combining a number of factors that include the employee’s age, length of service, and AFP employee turnover rate.

​

The liability under the plan is based on a discount rate of 0.3% as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The liability is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The plan is currently unfunded, and the benefit obligation under the plan was $2.9 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company recorded an immaterial amount of expense under the plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

​

Deferred Compensation Plan

​

In December 2019, the Company established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. The deferred compensation plan allows certain eligible participants to defer a portion of their cash compensation and provides a matching contribution at the discretion of the Company. The plan obligations are payable upon retirement, termination of employment and/or certain other times in a lump-sum distribution or in installments, as elected by the participant in accordance with the plan. Participants can allocate their deferred compensation amongst various investment options with earnings accruing to the participant. The Company has established a Rabbi Trust to fund the plan obligations and to hold the plan assets. Eligible participants began contributing to the plan in January 2020. The plan assets were valued at approximately $2.7 million as of September 30, 2021. The plan liabilities were valued at approximately $2.7 million as

of September 30, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the plan assets and liabilities were valued at approximately $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
