Restructuring and Related Charges
During fiscal 2013, the Company launched a restructuring program designed to improve its cost structure ("the 2013 Mallinckrodt Program"). The 2013 Mallinckrodt Program includes actions across all segments, as well as within the corporate functions. The Company expects to incur charges of $100 million to $125 million under this program as the specific actions required to execute on these initiatives are identified and approved, most of which are expected to be incurred by the end of fiscal 2016. Restructuring actions associated with acquisitions made prior to the Separation are included within Other programs below.
Prior to Separation, Covidien initiated restructuring programs, which also applied to its Pharmaceutical business. These programs were substantially completed as of September 27, 2013.
Net restructuring and related charges by segment are as follows:
