(a) The net periodic benefit expense for the U.S. defined benefit pension plans was $0.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.9 million for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The net periodic benefit expense (income) for the non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans was $(0.5) million, $0.3 million and $(0.2) million for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Schedule of Assumptions Used Weighted average assumptions used in accounting for the U.S. defined benefit pension plans are as follows:
 Pension Benefit
 202420232022
Discount rate for obligations5.73 %5.05 %5.24 %
Discount rate for benefit costs5.05 %5.24 %3.06 %
Rate of increase in compensation levelsN/AN/AN/A
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets6.13 %6.13 %6.13 %
The Company utilizes a high-quality (Aa or greater) corporate bond yield curve as the basis for its domestic discount rate for its pension benefit plans. Management believes this yield curve removes the impact of including additional required corporate bond yields (potentially considered in the above-median curve) resulting from the uncertain economic climate that does not necessarily reflect the general trend in high-quality interest rates.
Weighted average assumptions used in accounting for the non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans are as follows:
 Pension Benefit
 202420232022
Discount rate for obligations3.90 %4.70 %4.90 %
Discount rate for benefit costs4.70 %4.90 %2.10 %
Rate of increase in compensation levels5.50 %5.50 %4.80 %
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets5.80 %6.60 %4.20 %
Schedule of Changes in Projected Benefit Obligations and Fair Value of Plan Assets
The following provides a reconciliation of the changes in the Company's defined benefit pension plans' projected benefit obligations and fair value of assets for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the funded status as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):

__________________________
(a) The actuarial loss for the year ended December 31, 2024 was driven by a loss due to changes in financial assumptions and experience loss in the Non-U.S more than offsetting gains from an increase in the discount rate and demographic experience in the U.S. The actuarial loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to changes in demographic assumptions as well as a decrease in the discount rate utilized in measuring the projected benefit obligations, partially offset by experience gains.
(b) U.S. projected benefit obligations were $12.5 million and $13.2 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Non-U.S. projected benefit obligations were $15.0 million and $14.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(c) The fair value of U.S. plan assets was $10.5 million and $9.5 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The fair value of non-U.S. plan assets was $15.6 million and $18.3 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
