On February 20, 2018, CNH Industrial announced that the United States Supreme Court ruled in its favor in Reese vs. CNH Industrial N.V. and CNH Industrial America LLC. The decision allowed CNH Industrial to terminate or modify various retiree healthcare benefits previously provided to certain UAW Union represented Company retirees. On April 16, 2018, CNH Industrial announced its determination to modify the benefits provided to the applicable retirees (“Benefit Modification”) to make them consistent with the benefits provided to current eligible CNH Industrial retirees who had been represented by the UAW. The Benefit Modification resulted in a reduction of the plan liability by $527 million. This amount will be amortized from Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") to the income statement over approximately 4.5 years, which represents the average service period to attain eligibility conditions for active participants. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, $30 million and $90 million of amortization (“Benefit Modification Amortization”) was recorded as a pre-tax gain in Other, net, respectively.
In 2021, CNH Industrial communicated plan changes for the US retiree medical plan. The plan changes resulted in a reduction of the plan liability by $100 million. This amount will be amortized from OCI to the income statement over approximately 4 years, which represents the average service period to attain eligibility conditions for active participants. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, $6 million and $18 million of amortization was recorded as a pre-tax gain in Other, net, respectively.
