In connection with the sale of Wiley Edge and CrossKnowledge, in the year ended April 30, 2025, we reclassified $23.2 million of cumulative translation adjustments out of Accumulated other comprehensive loss and included in the Net loss on sale of businesses, assets, and impairment charges related to assets held-for-sale in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). For the years ended April 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, pretax actuarial losses included in Unamortized Retirement Costs of approximately $8.6 million, $8.1 million, and $7.9 million, respectively, were amortized from Accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized as pension and postretirement benefit (expense) primarily in Operating and administrative expenses and Other (expense) income, net on our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). Our policy for releasing the income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income is to release when the corresponding pretax accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income items are reclassified to earnings.
