Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Employee Benefit Plans | Employee Benefit Plans The Company sponsors qualified defined and nonqualified defined benefit pension plans that provide pension benefits to a majority of employees who were employed by TWC before the merger with TWC. Pension benefits are based on formulas that reflect the employees’ years of service and compensation during their employment period. Actuarial gains or losses are changes in the amount of either the benefit obligation or the fair value of plan assets resulting from experience different from that assumed or from changes in assumptions. The Company has elected to follow a mark-to-market pension accounting policy for recording the actuarial gains or losses annually during the fourth quarter, or earlier if a remeasurement event occurs during an interim period. No future compensation increases or future service will be credited to participants of the pension plans given the frozen nature of the plans. The components of net periodic pension benefit (costs) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are recorded in in other expenses, net in the consolidated statements of operations and consisted of the following:
| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Interest cost | $ | (24) |  |  | $ | (29) |  |  | $ | (72) |  |  | $ | (85) |
Expected return on plan assets | 40 |  |  | 39 |  |  | 124 |  |  | 116 |
Remeasurement gain (loss), net | (31) |  |  | (125) |  |  | 124 |  |  | (125) |
Net periodic pension benefits (costs) | $ | (15) |  |  | $ | (115) |  |  | $ | 176 |  |  | $ | (94) |
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, settlements for lump-sum distributions to pension plan participants exceeded the estimated annual interest cost of the plans. As a result, the pension liability and pension asset values were reassessed as of September 30, 2021 utilizing remeasurement date assumptions in accordance with the Company's mark-to-market pension accounting policy to record gains and losses in the period in which a remeasurement event occurs. The $31 million remeasurement loss during the three months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily driven by losses to record assets to fair value and the $124 million remeasurement gain recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily driven by changes in the discount rate. The Company made no cash contributions to the qualified pension plans during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020; however, the Company may make discretionary cash contributions to the qualified pension plans in the future. Such contributions will be dependent on a variety of factors, including current and expected interest rates, asset performance, the funded status of the qualified pension plans and management’s judgment. For the nonqualified unfunded pension plan, the Company will continue to make contributions during 2021 to the extent benefits are paid.
