In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded settlement charges related to the payment of lump sum buy-outs to settle certain non-U.S. pension obligations using plan assets. The Company may incur additional settlement charges in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Additionally, in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a curtailment gain to recognize prior service credits that were previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in connection with the closure of a non-U.S. defined benefit pension plan.

The components of net periodic cost / (benefit) other than the service cost component are included in other pension and postretirement in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
