Defined Contribution Plan, Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans Defined Contribution Plan, Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans
Defined Contribution Plan - We sponsor a defined contribution plan covering eligible employees. Eligible employees can contribute on a pre-tax basis to the plan. In accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan, we elect to match a certain percentage of the participants’ contributions to the plan, as defined. We recognized expense associated with the plan of $3.4 million, $4.6 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans - We sponsor pension and other post-retirement benefit plans that cover certain hourly and salaried employees in the United Kingdom. Each of the plans are frozen to new participants and to additional service credits earned. Our policy is to make annual contributions to the plans to fund the minimum contributions, as required by local regulations.

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at December 31 were as follows:
 Non-U.S. Pension Plan
 20252024
Discount rate5.35 %5.40 %
Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the years ended December 31 were as follows:
 Non-U.S. Pension Plan
 202520242023
Discount rate5.40 %4.45 %4.75 %
Expected return on plan assets6.60 %5.65 %5.60 %
The rate of return assumptions are based on projected long-term market returns for the various asset classes in which the plans are invested, weighted by the target asset allocations. An incremental amount for active plan asset management and diversification, where appropriate, is included in the rate of return assumption. Our pension plan investment strategy is reviewed periodically, but no less frequently than annually.
We employ a total return investment approach whereby a mix of equities, fixed income and real estate investments are intended to maximize the long-term return of plan assets taking into consideration a prudent level of risk. The intent of this strategy is to minimize plan expenses by outperforming plan liabilities over the long run. Risk tolerance is established through consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status and corporate financial condition. The investment portfolio contains a diversified blend of equity, balanced, fixed income and real estate investments. Furthermore, equity investments are diversified across U.S. and non-U.S. stocks, as well as growth, value and large and small capitalizations. Other assets, such as real estate, are used judiciously to perhaps enhance long-term returns and to improve portfolio diversification. Derivatives may be used to gain
market exposure in an efficient and timely manner; however, derivatives may not be used to leverage the portfolio beyond the market value of the underlying investments. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis in light of annual liability measurements, periodic asset/liability studies and quarterly investment portfolio reviews. We expect to contribute approximately $1.7 million to our non-U.S. pension plan and our other post-retirement benefit plans in 2026.
Our investment allocation target for our non-U.S. pension plan for 2025 and our weighted-average asset allocations of our pension assets for the years ended December 31, by asset category, are as follows:

The non-U.S. pension plan assets are held in a pooled separate account which represents an insurance contract under which plan assets are administered through pooled funds. The contract portfolio includes cash and cash equivalents, equity/ balanced securities, and fixed income securities. The contract is valued daily based on the market value of the underlying net assets. The majority of the underlying net assets have observable Level 1 and/or 2 quoted pricing inputs which are used to determine the unit value of the contract, which is not publicly quoted and therefore classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, for further detail on fair value hierarchy.

The assets within the insurance contract can be described as follows:
Equity Securities - Includes common stocks issued by U.S., United Kingdom and other international companies, equity funds that invest in common stocks and unit linked insurance policies. Equity investments generally allow near-term (within 90 days of the measurement date) liquidity and are held in issues that are actively traded to facilitate transactions at minimum cost.
Balanced Securities - Includes funds primarily invested in a mix of equity and fixed income securities where the allocations are at the discretion of the investment manager. Investments generally allow near-term (within 90 days of the measurement date) liquidity and are held in issues that are actively traded to facilitate transactions at minimum cost.
Fixed Income Securities - Includes U.S. dollar-denominated and United Kingdom and other international marketable bonds and convertible debt securities as well as fixed income funds that invest in these instruments. Investments generally allow near-term liquidity and are held in issues that are actively traded to facilitate transactions at minimum cost.
The fair values of our pension plan assets by asset category and by level as described in Note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:
