12.  Subsequent Event

On May 9, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a severance plan that includes a workforce elimination of 38 positions, comprised of 32 employees and 6 consultants.  This one-time involuntary termination benefit plan reduced our workforce by approximately 25% and was done in order to reduce go-forward operating costs and re-align our go-forward business model to support future business initiatives.

We currently anticipate incurring pre-tax severance charges under this severance plan of approximately $1.1 million, representing one-time cash employee termination benefits including severance and other employment obligations, which will be paid out beginning in the second quarter of 2019 through early 2020.  We expect the workforce reductions will be substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2019 and anticipate that cost savings will be realized beginning in the third quarter of 2019.
