Weyco Group, Inc. Pension Plan is a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by Weyco Group, Inc. of Glendale, Wisconsin. For the plan year ending 31 Dec 2025 it reported 367 participants, 75 of them active, and net assets of $40.3M.
Net assets came to $102,948 per participant in plan year 2024, above the $87,254 median for defined benefit plans with 250 to 499 participants and well above the $61,809 median for defined benefit plans in wholesale trade. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
Schedule C lists 10 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $301K: $820 per participant, well above the same-size median of $413. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $341K. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $24.8M in 2009 to $40.3M in 2025 (up 63%), and participants from 719 to 367 (down 49%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified), from an audit whose scope was limited under ERISA section 103(a)(3)(C) to exclude investment information certified by a bank or insurer.

What does Weyco Group, Inc. contribute per participant?
This filing has no Schedule H financial statement, so employer contributions are not reported here.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $300,851 in compensation to service provider organisations, $820 per participant or 0.75% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $413 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $341,132. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is Weyco Group, Inc.. Investment advisory or management: Robert W. Baird Inc., Reinhart Partners Inc. and Wynn Capital Management. Trustee or custodian: Matrix, One America and BMO Harris Trust Company. The financial statements were audited by Baker Tilly US, LLP. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion from a limited-scope audit, in which the accountant did not audit investment information certified by a bank or insurance company. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2025 to 31 Dec 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 17 Jun 2026. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind.
