Employee-related Restructuring Plans
 
During fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a total of $4.2 million in employee-related restructuring charges and adjustments. The expense included severance and other employee-related charges in the United States, Europe, and APAC of $4.0 million and adjustments to the fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2023 employee-related restructuring plans for employees in the United States and Europe of $0.2 million. Of the fiscal 2024 employee-related restructuring plans, $1.4 million remained accrued as of March 31, 2024 and is expected to be paid out during fiscal 2025.

In fiscal 2023, the Company recorded a total of $7.8 million in employee-related restructuring charges and adjustments. The expense included severance and other employee-related charges primarily in the United States. The fiscal 2023 employee-related restructuring plans were paid out during fiscal 2023 and 2024.

In fiscal 2021, the Company recorded a total of $1.7 million in employee-related restructuring charges and adjustments. The expense included severance and other employee-related charges in the United States and Europe. Of the employee-related charges of $1.7 million, $0.2 million remained accrued as of March 31, 2024 and are expected to be paid out during fiscal 2025.

Lease-related Impairments and Restructuring Plans

During fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a total of $1.9 million in additional impairment charges and adjustments related to the fiscal 2023 global real estate footprint reduction initiatives. The charges primarily related to the leased office space in San Francisco and were driven by declines in the expected sublease terms and rates available in the market. The impairment charges included impairments of the operating lease ROU assets of $1.7 million, and the associated furniture, equipment, and leasehold improvements of $0.2 million.

In fiscal 2023, the Company initiated a restructuring plan to lower its operating expenses by reducing its global real estate footprint. As part of this plan, we exited a total of eight leased office spaces. Of those, five were located in the United States: one in Boston, one in Philadelphia, one in Phoenix, and two floors of leased office space in San Francisco. The three remaining spaces were located in Europe: one in the Netherlands, one floor of leased office space in London, England, and one floor of leased office space in Paris, France.
Based on a comparison of undiscounted cash flows to the ROU asset group of each exited lease, the Company determined that each of the ROU asset groups was impaired, driven largely by the difference between the existing lease terms and rates on the Company’s leases and the expected sublease terms and rates available in the market. This resulted in impairment charges totaling $24.6 million during the second, third, and fourth quarters of fiscal 2023, reflecting the excess of the ROU asset group book value over its fair value, which was determined based on estimates of future discounted cash flows and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The lease impairment charges included impairments of the operating lease ROU assets of $20.5 million, and the associated furniture, equipment, and leasehold improvements of $4.1 million. Additionally, the Company recorded $2.9 million in lease-related restructuring charges and adjustments that covered other obligations related to the leased office spaces in San Francisco and Phoenix. Of the combined fiscal 2023 and 2024 lease-related restructuring charges of $2.8 million, $1.7 million remain accrued as of March 31, 2024 and will be satisfied over the remainder of the San Francisco lease term, which continues through April 2029.

In fiscal 2017, the Company made the strategic decision to exit and sub-lease a certain leased office facility under a staggered-exit plan. The full exit was completed in fiscal 2019. We intend to continue subleasing the facility to the extent possible. The liability will be satisfied over the remainder of the leased property's term, which continues through November 2025. Any future changes in the estimates or in the actual sublease income may require future adjustments to the liabilities, which would impact net earnings (loss) in the period the adjustment is recorded. Through March 31, 2024, the Company has recorded a total of $7.3 million of restructuring charges and adjustments related to this lease. Of the amount accrued for this facility lease, $1.3 million remained accrued at March 31, 2024.
