EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Savings and Retirement Plans - The Company’s Savings and Retirement Plans include a U.S. defined contribution plan for employees primarily in the U.S. and international savings plans for employees in certain other countries. In the U.S., hourly and salary based employees are eligible to participate in the plan after 90 days of service and the Company matches 100% of employee contributions up to 6.0% of employee compensation. In addition, the Company makes contributions to the plan on behalf of employees determined by their age and compensation.
During fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016, the defined contribution expense for the U.S. defined contribution plan was $22.0, $20.6 and $12.7, respectively, and the defined contribution expense for the international savings plans was $18.3, $13.3 and $5.7, respectively.
Pension Plans - The Company sponsors contributory and noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain U.S. and international employees primarily in Austria, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland. Participants in the U.S. defined benefit pension plan no longer accrue benefits. The Company measures defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the Company’s fiscal year-end. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans are funded primarily through contributions from the Company after consideration of recommendations from the pension plans’ independent actuaries and are funded at levels sufficient to comply with local requirements.
Settlements and Curtailments for Pension Plans
The Company settled obligations to U.S. Del Laboratories, Inc. pension plan (the “Del Plan”) participants during the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2017 resulting in the recognition of pre-tax settlement losses of $15.9, included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, the Del Plan had been fully terminated as a result of these actions.
Additionally during fiscal year 2017, the Company recognized a curtailment gain of $1.8 in connection with involuntary employee terminations as part of the Acquisition Integration Program, which significantly reduced the expected years of future service of employees within one of the Company’s international pension plans. The curtailment gain is included in Restructuring costs in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2017. Refer to Note 6Restructuring Costs for further information about the Acquisition Integration Program.
P&G Beauty Business Employee Benefit Plans
In connection with the P&G Beauty Business acquisition, the Company assumed certain international pension and other post-employment benefit plan obligations and assets. The assumed benefit plans resulted in liabilities of $404.1, representing the aggregate funded status of these plans as of the date of acquisition.
As part of Global Integration Activities initiated during fiscal 2017, we concluded that our restructuring actions resulted in a significant reduction of future services of active employees primarily in our non-U.S. pension plans. As a result, we recognized net settlement and curtailment gains of $0.4 and $0.4, respectively, in restructuring costs during fiscal 2017.
Other Post-Employment Benefit Plans (“OPEB”) - The Company provides certain post-employment health and life insurance benefits for certain employees and spouses principally in the U.S., France, and Canada if certain age and service requirements are met. Estimated benefits to be paid by the Company are expensed over the service period of each employee based on calculations performed by an independent actuary. In addition, the Company has a supplemental retirement plan and a termination benefit plan for selected salaried employees.
Settlements and Curtailments for OPEB Plans
The Company amended one of our non-U.S. postretirement healthcare plans during fiscal 2018, which significantly reduced the expected years of future service for employees participating in the plan. The amendment triggered a curtailment gain of $10.4, which is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2018.
The aggregate reconciliation of the projected benefit obligations, plan assets, funded status and amounts recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements related to the Company’s pension plans and other post-employment benefit plans is presented below:

Pension Plan Investment Policy
The Company’s investment policies and strategies for plan assets are to achieve the greatest return consistent with the fiduciary character of the plan and to maintain a level of liquidity that is sufficient to meet the need for timely payment of benefits. The goals of the investment managers include minimizing risk and achieving growth in principal value so that the purchasing power of such value is maintained with respect to the rate of inflation.
The pension plan’s return on assets is based on management’s expectations of long-term average rates of return to be achieved by the underlying investment portfolios. In establishing this assumption, management considers historical and expected returns for the assets in which the plan is invested, as well as current economic and market conditions.
The asset allocation decision includes consideration of future retirements, lump-sum elections, growth in the number of participants, the Company’s contributions and cash flow. These actual characteristics of the plan place certain demands upon the level, risk and required growth of trust assets. Actual asset allocation is regularly reviewed and periodically rebalanced to the strategic allocation when considered appropriate.
The target asset allocations for the Company’s pension plans as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, by asset category are presented below:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for plan assets measured at fair value:
Equity securities-The fair values reflect the closing price reported on a major market where the individual securities are traded. These investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Corporate securities-The fair values are based on a compilation of primarily observable market information or a broker quote in a non-active market. These investments are primarily classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Cash and cash equivalents-The carrying amount approximates fair value, primarily because of the short maturity of cash equivalent instruments. These investments are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Insurance contracts and other- Includes contracts issued by insurance companies and other investments that are not publicly traded.  These investments are generally classified as Level 3 as there are neither quoted prices nor other observable inputs for pricing. Insurance contracts are valued at cash surrender value, which approximates the contract fair value.  Other Level 3 plan assets include real estate and other alternative investment funds requiring inputs that cannot be readily derived from observable market data due to the infrequency with which the underlying assets trade.
The Company sponsors a qualified defined benefit pension plan for all eligible Swiss employees. Retirement benefits are provided based on employees’ years of service and earnings, or in accordance with applicable employee regulations. Consistent with typical Swiss practice, the pension plan is funded through a guaranteed insurance contract with an insurance company (“IC”). The IC is responsible for the investment strategy of the insurance premiums that the Company submits and does not hold individual assets per participating employer. Assets are invested in accordance with the IC’s own strategies and risk assessments. Under the terms of the contract, the interest rate as well as the capital value is guaranteed for each participant, with the IC assuming any risk to the value of the underlying assets. The IC is a member of a security fund, whose purpose is to cover any shortfall in the event they are not able to fulfill its contractual agreements. The plan assets of the Swiss plan are included in the Level 3 valuation.
The Company also sponsors qualified defined benefit pension plans for certain eligible German employees. The Company’s German pension plans are partially funded with plan assets held in a Contractual Trust Arrangement, under which Company assets have been irrevocably transferred to a registered association for the exclusive purpose of securing and funding pension obligations in Germany.  The association invests primarily in publicly tradable equity and fixed income securities, using a funding strategy that is reviewed on a regular basis.
Plan assets are also held in the Company’s other non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans.  The other non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans provide benefits primarily based on earnings and years of service and are funded in compliance with local laws and practices. The plan assets are invested in various asset classes that are expected to produce a sufficient level of diversification and investment return over the long term at an acceptable level of risk.
