Fiscal 2013 Fourth Quarter Restructuring Plan

During the fiscal year ended October 26, 2013, and the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company restructured certain business operations and reduced the Company’s operating expense structure. The restructuring plan was approved by the Company’s management and communicated to the Company’s employees in September 2013. The plan included a workforce reduction of approximately 250 employees, primarily in the engineering, sales, and marketing organizations, as well as the cancellation of certain nonrecurring engineering agreements and exit from certain leased facilities. The Company substantially completed the restructuring plan by the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2014.

In connection with the plan, the Company incurred aggregate charges of $89.3 million as of November 1, 2014, primarily related to a goodwill impairment charge of $83.4 million (see Note 4, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Severance and benefits charges incurred under this restructuring plan consisted of severance and related employee termination costs, including salary and other compensation payments to the employees during their post-notification retention period as well as associated outplacement services. The post-notification retention period for the employees terminated under the plan did not exceed the legal notification period, or, in the absence of a legal notification requirement, 60 days. Contract terminations and other charges were primarily related to the cancellation of certain contracts in connection with the restructuring of certain business functions. Lease loss reserve and related costs were primarily related to the costs that will continue to be incurred under exited facilities’ lease contracts for the remaining term of the leases without economic benefit to the Company, reduced by estimated sublease income that could be reasonably obtained for these facilities.

The Company reevaluates its estimates and assumptions on a quarterly basis and makes adjustments to the restructuring liabilities balance if necessary. During the fiscal year ended November 1, 2014, the Company reversed approximately $1.8 million of severance and benefits charges due to actual cash payments to certain terminated employees being lower than original estimates as a result of the completion of the severance arrangements with these employees during the first quarter of fiscal year 2014.

The above restructuring and other related charges are included in “Restructuring, goodwill impairment, and other related costs (recoveries)” on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Prior Restructuring Plans

Prior to fiscal year 2013, the Company also recorded charges related to estimated facilities lease losses, net of expected sublease income, due to consolidation of real estate space as a result of acquisitions.

Cash payments for facilities that are part of the Company’s lease loss reserve are expected to be paid over the respective lease terms through fiscal year 2021.
