During the six months ended September 30, 2020, the Company settled the liabilities for one of its U.S. pension plans through a combination of (i) lump sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them and (ii) the purchase of annuity contracts for participants who did not elect lump sums. The lump sum payments were paid during the three months ending June 30, 2020 and resulted in a settlement charge of $2,722,000 which was recorded in Other (income) expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company purchased annuity contracts to settle the remaining liabilities of the terminated plan. The annuity contract purchase resulted in a settlement charge of $16,324,000 which was recorded in Other (income) expense, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations during the six months ending September 30, 2020. The remaining surplus of the terminated plan of $3,790,000 will be used, as prescribed in the applicable regulations, to fund obligations associated with the Company's U.S. defined contribution plans.
