Severance and Asset Write-Downs [Text Block]
SEVERANCE AND ASSET WRITE-DOWNS:
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company initiated a series of actions and further developed its plans to drive efficiency through the consolidation and centralization of its operations. As a result, the Company recorded charges during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 of approximately $40.8 million for severance and related costs. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company enhanced the benefits under its severance policy which resulted in an additional charge of approximately $6.6 million related to planned terminations initiated during the second quarter. In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded charges of approximately $11.7 million for goodwill impairments (see Note 5) and other asset write-downs of approximately $11.4 million primarily related to the write-offs of certain client contractual investments.
