Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Defined Benefit Plans | 14. Defined Benefit Plans We have a number of pension plans in the United States, covering certain of the Company’s employees; however, the majority of these plans have been frozen to new participants, and benefit accruals were frozen for active participants on December 31, 2016. The plans provide for payment of retirement benefits, mainly commencing between the ages of 55 and 65. After meeting certain qualifications, an employee acquires a vested right to future benefits. The benefits payable under the plans are generally determined on the basis of an employee’s length of service and/or earnings. Employer contributions to the plans are made, as necessary, to ensure legal funding requirements are satisfied. Also, from time to time, we may make contributions in excess of the legal funding requirements. Service cost for 2025 relates to benefit accruals for a group of hourly employees within the defined benefit plan for our Security segment. All other benefit accruals under our defined benefit pension plans were frozen as of, or prior to, December 31, 2016. The Company offered a lump sum program during the fourth quarter of 2023 in which certain terminated vested participants in the Moen Qualified Plan and Master Lock Qualified Plan could elect to take a one-time voluntary lump sum payment equal to the present value of future benefits. Approximately 700 participants elected to accept the lump sum option. During the fourth quarter of 2023, benefit payments of $27.0 million were made and a settlement expense of $2.0 million was recognized. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company entered into two agreements with an insurance company to purchase group annuity contracts and transferred $266.6 million of pension plan obligations and related assets of two of its defined benefit pension plans, the MasterLock Pension Plan and Moen Incorporated Pension Plan (collectively, the "Pension Plans"). The partial plan settlements resulted in a loss of $19.0 million, which is included in Other (expense) income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The agreements cover approximately 4,100 retirees and other beneficiaries (the "Transferred Participants"). All Transferred Participants continued to receive their benefits from the Pension Plans until January 1, 2025, at which time the insurance company began paying and administering the retirement benefits of the Transferred Participants. The transactions resulted in no changes to the amount of the benefits payable to the Transferred Participants. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a buy-in annuity agreement with an insurance provider. The agreement features a buy-in of the plan assets with an option to elect a future buy-out conversion. As part of the buy-in, a majority of the assets of the Pension Plans were transferred to the insurance company in exchange for an annuity contract to further reduce the risk of plan asset value volatility. The Company retains the primary benefit obligation until the buy-out conversion is completed. Upon election of the buy-out conversion, we will transfer full responsibility of the obligations of the Pension Plans to the insurance company, at which time we will derecognize the assets and liabilities of the Pension Plans and realize a settlement loss as a component of net periodic pension cost. Net actuarial gains and losses occur when actual experience differs from any of the assumptions used to value defined benefit plans or when assumptions change as they may each year. The primary factors contributing to actuarial gains and losses are changes in the discount rate used to value obligations as of the measurement date and the differences between expected and actual returns on pension plan assets. In addition, the Company provides postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to certain retirees.

Our defined benefit plans Master Trust own a variety of investment assets. Certain investment assets are measured using net asset value per share as a practical expedient per ASC 820. Investments measured using net asset value per share totaled $14.9 million and $150.7 mill ion as of December 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively. The terms and conditions for redemptions vary for each class of the investment assets valued at net asset value per share as a practical expedient. Real estate assets may be redeemed quarterly with a 45 day redemption notice period. Investment assets in multi-strategy hedge funds may be redeemed semi-annually with a 95 day redemption notice period. Equity, fixed income and cash and cash equivalents have no specified redemption frequency and notice period and may be redeemed daily. As of December 27, 2025, we do not have an intent to sell or otherwise dispose of these investment assets at prices different than the net asset value per share. For the Pension Plans, our assets have been exchanged for buy-in annuity contracts to cover all plan liabilities. Fo r our remaining plans, our investment strategy is to optimize investment returns through a diversified portfolio of investments, taking into consideration underlying plan liabilities and asset volatility. The defined benefit asset allocation policy of the plans allows for a return-seeking portfolio allocation of 0% to 50% and liability-hedging portfolio allocation of 50% to 100%. Asset allocations are based on the underlying liability structure. All retirement asset allocations are reviewed periodically to ensure the allocations meets the needs of the liability structure. Our 2026 expected blended long-term rate of return on plan assets o f 4.2% was determined based on the nature of the plans’ investments, our current asset allocation and projected long-term rates of return from pension investment consultants. Estimated Future Retirement Benefit Payments The following retirement benefit payments are expected to be paid:
(In millions) |  | Pension Benefits |  |  |  | Postretirement Benefits |
2026 |  | $ | 197.5 |  |  |  | $ | 1.2 |
2027 |  |  | 1.6 |  |  |  |  | 1.1 |
2028 |  |  | 1.5 |  |  |  |  | 1.0 |
2029 |  |  | 1.6 |  |  |  |  | 1.0 |
2030 |  |  | 1.5 |  |  |  |  | 0.9 |
Years 2031-2035 |  |  | 7.2 |  |  |  |  | 4.7 |
Estimated future retirement benefit payments above are estimates and could change significantly based on differences between actuarial assumptions and actual events and decisions related to lump sum distribution options that are available to participants in certain plans. Defined Contribution Plan Contributions We sponsor a number of defined contribution plans for the benefit of eligible employees. Contributions are determined under various formulas. Cash contributions by the Company related to these plans amounted to $38.5 million, $35.5 million and $28.7 mill ion in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
