11. Restructuring and Severance

During the first nine months of 2014, certain employees related to non-core functions were terminated as part of management’s efforts to simplify business operations. As a result, the Company recorded $2.9 million in restructuring and severance costs in its consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, primarily related to severance paid or accrued for employees related to non-core functions.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, additional severance costs were incurred for certain employees terminated as part of management’s continuing efforts to simplify business operations. As a result, the Company recorded $0.4 million in restructuring and severance costs and other closure related costs in its condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. In addition, the Company recorded an additional $0.1 million in severance costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 in general and administrative related to executive position eliminations in conjunction with recent corporate restructuring and cost reduction activities.
