Fair Value Measurements for Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The fair value hierarchy discussed above is not only applicable to assets and liabilities that are included in our consolidated
balance sheets, but is also applied to certain other assets that indirectly impact our consolidated financial statements. For example,
our Company sponsors and/or contributes to a number of pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Assets contributed by
the Company become the property of the individual plans. Even though the Company no longer has control over these assets, we
are indirectly impacted by subsequent fair value adjustments to these assets. The actual return on these assets impacts the
Company’s future net periodic benefit cost, as well as amounts recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 13.
The Company uses the fair value hierarchy to measure the fair value of assets held by our various pension and other
postretirement plans.
