We anticipate making additional defined benefit pension contributions during the remainder of 2024 of $14 million for our U.S. and U.K. qualified and non-qualified pension plans. These contributions may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants. We expect our 2024 annual net periodic pension cost to approximate $34 million.
The components of net periodic pension and OPEB expense (income) under our plans were as follows:
