We regularly evaluate opportunities to reduce risk and volatility associated with our pension and retiree medical plans, including the offer of an optional lump sum distribution to certain participants, which may result in settlement charges that would be reflected as an item affecting comparability in future periods. During the 36 weeks ended September 7, 2019, we made discretionary contributions of $150 million to the PepsiCo Employees Retirement Plan A (Plan A) in the United States and $17 million to our international plans. During the 36 weeks ended September 8, 2018, we made discretionary contributions of $1.4 billion to Plan A in the United States, $17 million to our international pension plans and $37 million to fund U.S. retiree medical plan benefits.
