The amounts reported in these disclosures for prior periods have not been segregated between continuing and discontinued operations. VF has reported the service cost component of net periodic pension cost (income) in operating income and the other components (which include interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service costs (credits) and actuarial losses) in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income. VF contributed $4.7 million to its defined benefit plans during the six months ended September 2019, and intends to make approximately $21.5 million of contributions during the remainder of Fiscal 2020. In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, VF approved a freeze of all future benefit accruals under the U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental defined benefit pension plan, effective December 31, 2018. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $9.5 million pension curtailment loss in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the six months ended September 2018. Additionally, VF reported $0.5 million in settlement charges in the other income (expense), net line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended September 2019, as well as $1.3 million and $8.2 million for the three and six months ended September 2018, respectively. The settlement charges related to the recognition of deferred actuarial losses resulting from lump sum payments of retirement benefits in the supplemental defined benefit pension plan.
