The net periodic benefit cost is based on estimated values and an extensive use of assumptions about the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, the rate of future compensation increases received by the Company’s employees, mortality, turnover, and medical costs. The Company presents the components of net periodic benefit cost other than service cost in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income on the line item “Other, net”.

The Company made a cash contribution of $9,394 to the Pension Plan during the third quarter of 2024, which completed the Company’s expected cash contributions for the year.
