Defined Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Disclosures [Abstract] |
Retirement and Postretirement Plans | Note 12 - Retirement and Postretirement Plans Eligible employees, including certain employees in foreign countries, participate in the following Company-sponsored plans: Bargaining Unit Pension Plan ("Bargaining Plan"), Supplemental Pension Plan ("Supplemental Plan"), UK Pension Scheme ("Pension Scheme"), Mexico Pension Plan, and Postretirement Plans made up of the Company's Bargaining Unit Welfare Benefit Plan for Retirees and Welfare Benefit Plan for Retirees. The Retirement Plan ("Salaried Plan") was annuitized with the purchase of a group annuity contract on May 15, 2024. Bargaining Plan On October 29, 2021, the United Steelworkers ("USW") Local 1123 voted to ratify a new four-year contract (the “Contract”). The Contract is in effect until September 27, 2025 and resulted in several changes to the Bargaining Plan which increased the pension liability by $14.2 million in 2021. These plan amendments were recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) in 2021 and will be amortized as part of the pension net periodic benefit cost in future periods. The main change that drove the increase in the pension liability was the addition of a full lump sum form of payment for participants commencing benefits on or after January 1, 2022. In addition, the plan is now closed to new entrants effective January 1, 2022. On July 7, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") to purchase an irrevocable group annuity contract and transfer approximately $256.2 million of pension obligations under the Bargaining Plan. In connection with the agreement, Prudential began paying benefits under the group annuity contract as of October 1, 2022 for a specified group of approximately 1,900 participants and beneficiaries who previously received payments from the Bargaining Plan. Benefits payable to these participants and beneficiaries were not reduced as a result of this transaction. Plan participants and beneficiaries not included in the transaction remain in the Bargaining Plan. The Company recorded a non-cash settlement gain of approximately $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2022 related to this partial plan annuitization. This settlement is a significant event which also required remeasurement of the Bargaining Plan during the third quarter of 2022. The transaction was funded directly by the assets of the Bargaining Plan and required no cash contribution from the Company. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, the Company contributed a total of $42.8 million in pension contributions, most of which related to the Bargaining Plan. The timing and amount of future required pension contributions is significantly affected by asset returns and actuarial assumptions. Based on the results of the December 31, 2024 pension calculations, the Company estimates total required Bargaining Plan contributions of approximately $65.0 million in 2025. In January 2025, the Company contributed an additional $5.3 million to the Bargaining Plan. Future required pension contribution timing and amounts are subject to significant change based on future investment performance, Company estimates and actuarial assumptions, as well as future funding laws. Salaried Plan During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved the termination of the Salaried Plan. Participants were notified in January 20 22 and the plan was terminated effective March 31, 2022, subject to regulatory approval which was received in the fourth quarter of 2023. On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a group annuity contract from Prudential in connection with the annuitization of the Salaried Plan. The Salaried Plan annuitization settled approximately $121 million of the Company’s remaining U.S. pension obligations. Prudential began future benefit payments under the group annuity contract starting August 1, 2024 for all remaining participants in the Salaried Plan. Benefits payable to Salaried Plan participants were not reduced as a result of the annuitization. The group annuity contract was purchased using existing assets of the Salaried Plan and required no cash contribution from the Company. At the date of the annuitization of the Salaried Plan, the Company transferred the Salaried Plan assets and liabilities to Prudential and recorded a non-cash loss of approximately $1.0 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has no remaining liabilities or obligations as it relates to the Salaried Plan.

The Bargaining Plan, Supplemental Plan and the recently terminated Salaried Plan have a provision that permits employees to elect to receive their pension benefits in a lump sum upon retirement. The Company's accounting policy is to recognize settlements during the quarter in which it is projected that the costs of all settlements during the year will be greater than the sum of the service cost and interest cost components. In the first quarter of 2024, the cumulative cost of all lump sum payments was expected to exceed the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost for the Salaried Plan. As a result, the Company completed a full r emeasurement of its pension obligations and plan assets associated with the Salaried Plan during the first quarter of 2024. On May 1, 2024, in advance of the annuitization of the Salaried plan and upon the election of certain participants, the Company made $20.8 million in lump sum payments. The Company also remeasured the Salaried Plan ahead of the annuitization on May 15, 2024. In the first quarter of 2023, in anticipation of receiving the regulatory approval to move forward with the plan termination process, the cumulative costs of all lump sum payments and other settlements were projected to exceed the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost during 2023 for the Salaried Plan. Ultimately, these costs did not exceed this threshold for the Salaried Plan during 2023. The Salaried Plan's pension obligations and plan assets were remeasured during each quarter of 2023. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the administrative expenses for all plans totaled $3.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively. These expenses are included in benefits paid in the tables above. The accumulated benefit obligation at December 31, 2024 exceeded the fair value of plan assets for the Bargaining Plan and the unfunded Supplemental Plan. For the Bargaining Plan and Supplemental Plan, the accumulated benefit obligation was $467.1 million and $16.1 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024. The accumulated benefit obligation for all pension plans was $532.5 million and $683.7 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Amounts recognized on the balance sheet at December 31, 2024 for the Company's pension and postretirement benefit plans include:

The weighted average assumptions used in determining benefit obligation as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
|  | Pension |  |  | Postretirement |
Assumptions: |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Discount rate |  |  | 5.71 | % |  |  | 5.33 | % |  |  | 5.73 | % |  |  | 5.43 | %
Future compensation assumption |  |  | 3.50 | % |  |  | 3.00 | % |  | n/a |  |  | n/a |
The weighted average assumptions used in determining benefit cost for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
|  | Pension |  |  | Postretirement |
Assumptions: |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Discount rate |  |  | 5.33 | % |  |  | 5.61 | % |  |  | 5.43 | % |  |  | 5.70 | %
Future compensation assumption |  |  | 3.00 | % |  |  | 3.00 | % |  | n/a |  |  | n/a |
Expected long-term return on plan assets |  |  | 7.15 | % |  |  | 7.13 | % |  |  | 5.80 | % |  |  | 6.25 | %
The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality long-term corporate bonds over the same period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected rate of return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return on the various asset classes in the plans’ portfolios. The asset class return is developed using historical asset return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and equity market performance. For measurement purposes, the weighted-average annual rate of increase in the per capita cost ("health care cost trend rate") was not applicable for the years 2024 and 2023.

Metallus recognizes its overall responsibility to ensure that the assets of its various defined benefit pension plans are managed effectively and prudently and in compliance with its policy guidelines and all applicable laws. Preservation of capital is important; however, Metallus also recognizes that appropriate levels of risk are necessary to allow its investment managers to achieve satisfactory long-term results consistent with the objectives and the fiduciary character of the pension funds. Asset allocations are established in a manner consistent with projected plan liabilities, benefit payments and expected rates of return for various asset classes. The expected rate of return for the investment portfolios is based on expected rates of return for various asset classes, as well as historical asset class and fund performance. The target allocations for each plan's assets are as follows:
|  | Pension |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|  | United States of America |  | United Kingdom |  |  | Mexico |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ("exit price"). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy: Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those investments of the Company's pension assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024:
