TodayFerroglobe USA Metallurgical, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan still files. Principal Life Insurance Company keeps the records. That is where to ask.

Records are kept by Principal Life Insurance Company, per the 2024 filing.

In plan year 2015, active participants fell from 160 to 105 (34%), and 12 people left before they were fully vested. When a plan loses about 20% or more of its participants in a year, the IRS presumes a partial plan termination (Revenue Ruling 2007-43). Everyone who left in that period must then be fully vested in the employer's contributions. Filing

This is a reason to ask the plan, not a finding. The plan decides, and it may show the drop was routine.

Check your years. We show whether the plan merged or moved money while you were there, and draft the letter to the plan that holds it now.

2016: The plan filed its last report: it ended, merged into another plan, or paid everyone out.
2016: At least a quarter of the plan's money moved to another plan this year, usually in a merger or company split.
2016: The employer decided to close the plan.

"Left, still in the plan" counts people who left the employer but still have a benefit in the plan, as reported by the plan.
