(ii)In the second quarter of 2021, the company’s primary pension plan related to its Dutch subsidiary was transferred to a multi-client circle within a multi-employer fund. This action resulted in a pre-tax settlement loss of $182.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Additionally, the company’s Swiss subsidiary transferred its defined benefit pension plans to a multiple-employer collective foundation. This action resulted in a pre-tax settlement loss of $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
(iii)In January 2021, the company purchased a group annuity contract to transferred projected benefit obligations related to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. This action resulted in a pre-tax settlement loss of $158.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
In 2022, the company expects to make cash contributions of approximately $38.5 million primarily for the company’s international defined benefit pension plans. In 2021, the company made cash contributions of $52.4 million to its worldwide defined benefit pension plans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the company made cash contributions of $30.9 million and $40.3 million, respectively.
At the end of each year, the company estimates its future cash contributions to its U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plans based on year-end pension data and assumptions. Any material deterioration in the value of the company’s U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan assets, as well as changes in pension legislation, discount rate changes, asset return changes, or changes in economic or demographic trends, could require the company to make cash contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans.
