In May 2021, the Brazilian Supreme Court ruled definitely to exclude the ICMS (state value-added tax) from the basis of calculation of certain federal value-added taxes, specifically the tax relative to the program of social integration ("PIS") and to the contribution for the financing of social security ("COFINS"), and confirmed the methodology for calculating the PIS-COFINS tax credit to which taxpayers are entitled. The Company's Brazilian subsidiary had previously filed a legal claim on this matter and is entitled to receive tax credits and interests dating back to five years preceding the date of the claim. The overpayments, plus interests, of PIS-COFINS related to the period from June 2005 to August 2021 represent $11.5 million, net of legal fees. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company's subsidiary obtained the approval by the Brazilian Tax Authorities to start offsetting the PIS-COFINS credit against the current federal value-added tax payable and recorded the one-time credit as a realizable gain. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had offset $1.2 million of the credit. The balance of the PIS-COFINS credit is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months and is reported within "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Pension and post-employment non-service costs include the components of pension and post-employment costs other than service cost. The income in 2021 was due to a $3.8 million mark-to-market gain, compared to mark-to-market losses of $3.2 million and $3.5 million recorded in 2020 and 2019, respectively. See Note 11, "Retirement Plans and Post-Employment Benefits" for further discussion.
