Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits | Note 11—Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Defined Benefit and Other Postretirement Plans The Company sponsors qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans that provide for retirement and medical benefits for all eligible employees residing in the U.S. The Company also sponsors other pension benefit plans that provide benefits for internationally-based employees at certain non-U.S. locations. The Company’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans are actuarially evaluated, incorporating various assumptions such as the discount rate and the expected rate of return on plan assets. Disclosures below include U.S. pension plans and certain non-U.S. pension plans. The Company uses a September 30 measurement date for its pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The U.S. pension plans are closed to new entrants and frozen. However, existing plan participants continue to earn interest credits on existing balances at the time of the freeze. Additionally, the Visa Europe plans are closed to new entrants. However, future benefits continue to accrue for active participants. The funded status of the Company’s defined benefit pension plans is substantially recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the accumulated benefit obligation. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, for U.S. pension plans, the fair value of plan assets was $1.0 billion and $960 million, respectively, accumulated benefit obligation was $640 million and $663 million, respectively, and the funded status was $374 million and $297 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, for non-U.S. pension plans, the fair value of plan assets was $317 million and $327 million, respectively, accumulated benefit obligation was $287 million and $278 million, respectively, and funded status was $30 million and $49 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) before tax for U.S. pension plans was ($82) million and ($150) million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) before tax for non-U.S. pension plans was ($87) million and ($35) million, respectively. Defined Contribution Plan The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan, or 401(k) plan, that covers its employees residing in the U.S. In fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, personnel expenses included $192 million, $161 million, and $141 million, respectively, attributable to the Company’s employees under the 401(k) plan. The Company’s contributions to this 401(k) plan are funded on a current basis, and the related expenses are recognized in the period that the payroll expenses are incurred.
