EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Note 11 — EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
All U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plans are frozen, no longer accrue benefits and are closed to new participants. We have foreign pension plans that accrue benefits. The plans generally provide benefit payments using a formula that is based upon employee compensation and length of service.
The following tables present the change in benefit obligation, change in plan assets and components of funded status for defined benefit pension and post-retirement health care benefit plans.

The following table summarizes the components of net periodic benefit cost or gain that was recognized during each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2022.

In 2022, we recognized a $28.4 million mark-to-market loss that was primarily the result of actual asset returns that were lower than our assumed returns. Partially offsetting the lower asset returns was an increase in our year end discount rate from 2.69% to 4.74%.
In 2021, we recognized a $9.4 million mark-to-market and curtailment loss that was primarily the result of actual asset returns that were lower than our assumed returns. Partially offsetting the lower asset returns was an increase in our year end discount rate from 2.47% to 2.69%.
In 2020, we recognized a $17.2 million mark-to-market and curtailment gain that was primarily the result of actual asset returns that were higher than our assumed returns. The curtailment gain of $6.4 million related to lump sum payments that were offered to certain eligible participants of our US Qualified Pension Plan in the second quarter of 2020 which resulted in a settlement of $1.1 million, and a curtailment gain of $5.3 million related to certain acquired pension plans during the fourth quarter of 2020. Partially offsetting these gains was the decrease in our year end discount rate from 3.19% to 2.47%.

*The mark-to-market component of net periodic costs is determined based on discount rates as of year-end and actual asset returns during the year.
The expected long-term rate of return on pension assets was determined after considering the forward looking long-term asset returns by asset category and the expected investment portfolio mix.
Our pension investment strategy is to diversify the portfolio among asset categories to enhance the portfolio’s risk-adjusted return as well as insulate it from exposure to changes in interest rates. Our asset mix considers the duration of plan liabilities, historical and expected returns of the investments, and the funded status of the plan. The pension asset allocation is reviewed and actively managed based on the funded status of the plan. Based on the current funded status of the plan, our pension asset investment allocation guidelines are weighted to fixed income securities. The plan keeps a minimal amount of cash available to fund benefit payments. See the following table for the plans' asset allocation.
The fair values of pension plan assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, by asset category, are as follows:

Pension Plan Assets
Other assets are primarily insurance contracts for international plans. The U.S. equity common collective funds are predominately invested in equity securities actively traded in public markets. The international and global equity common collective funds have broadly diversified investments across economic sectors and focus on low volatility, long-term investments. The fixed income common collective funds consist primarily of publicly traded United States fixed interest obligations (principally investment grade bonds and government securities).
Level 1 assets are valued based on quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued based on quoted market prices and/or other market data for the same or comparable instruments and transactions of the underlying fixed income investments. The insurance contracts included in the other asset category are valued at the transacted price. Common collective funds are valued at the net asset value of units held by the fund at year-end. The unit value is determined by the total value of fund assets divided by the total number of units of the fund owned.
The estimated future benefit payments for our pension and health care plans are as follows:

We currently estimate that employer contributions will be $8.0 million to all qualified and non-qualified pension plans and $1.3 million to all healthcare benefit plans in 2023.
The Company sponsors various voluntary retirement savings plans (RSP). Under the provisions of the plans, eligible employees receive defined Company contributions and are eligible for Company matching contributions based on their eligible earnings contributed to the plan. In addition, we may make discretionary contributions to the plans for eligible employees based on a specific percentage of each employee’s compensation.
