(1)The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was $799 million and $854 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation for the SERPs was $86 million and $95 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(2)The preceding table reflects the benefit obligation associated with the Company’s pension benefits including its postretirement benefit plans and the SERPs. There are no plan assets associated with the Company’s postretirement benefit plans. The SERPs are primarily funded through a trust agreement with a trustee that owns life insurance policies on both active and former key employees as well as cash and mutual funds. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the value of the Company’s investments in the life insurance contracts at their cash surrender value, cash and mutual funds was $148 million and $141 million, respectively, which have been excluded from the fair value of plan assets, as they do not qualify as plan assets. Such asset values exceeded the SERPs obligation by $62 million and $46 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
