IMPAIRMENT LOSSES AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

Impairment Losses

During 2015, we pursued opening additional capacity in our Nearshore segment.  In the fourth quarter of 2015 we determined that this additional capacity was not necessary and we recognized an impairment loss of $323 related to certain assets.  In September 2016, we impaired the remaining value of the assets when we determined that we would not be able to sell them, resulting in an additional loss of $174.

Domestic Segment

In 2015, we made the decision to close the Kansas City, Missouri site and ACCENT's former headquarters office in Jeffersonville, Indiana. In conjunction with the ACCENT acquisition, we also eliminated a number of positions that were considered redundant. We established restructuring reserves for employee related costs of $1,289 at the time the decisions were made, and facility related costs of $272 at the time the facilities were vacated. We expect to pay the remaining costs by the end of 2016.

Nearshore Segment

During 2015, we pursued opening additional capacity in our nearshore segment. When it became evident that this additional capacity was not necessary, we decided to abandon the plan and establish a restructuring reserve of $112 for the remaining facility costs. We expect the remaining costs to be paid by the end of 2016.
