5.              Restructuring and Other Charges, Net

 

The Company’s Board of Directors approves all major restructuring programs that involve the discontinuance of significant product lines or the shutdown of significant facilities. From time to time, the Company takes additional restructuring actions, including involuntary terminations that are not part of a major program. The Company accounts for these costs in the period that the individual employees are notified or the liability is incurred. These costs are included in restructuring and other charges in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

 

2013 Actions

 

On July 30, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a restructuring program with respect to the Company’s EMEA segment to reduce its European manufacturing footprint, improve organizational and operational efficiency and better align costs with expected revenues in response to changing market conditions. The restructuring program is expected to include a pre-tax charge to earnings totaling approximately $10.4 million, all of which is expected to be recorded through the end of fiscal 2014. In the third quarter of 2014, the estimated cost of a planned action within the 2013 restructuring program was reduced, resulting in a decrease of the total expected pretax cost from $14.7 million to $10.4 million. The change is expected to result primarily in reduced severance costs. The total charge will include costs for severance benefits, relocation, site clean-up, professional fees and certain asset write-downs. The total net after-tax charge for the restructuring program is expected to be approximately $7.3 million. The restructuring program is expected to be completed by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. The net after-tax charges incurred in the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 were $0.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

 

Other Actions

 

The Company also periodically initiates other actions which are not part of a major program.  In 2013 and 2014, the Company initiated restructuring activities in EMEA to relocate certain manufacturing activities and in EMEA and the Americas to reduce costs through reductions-in-force.  There are no remaining expected costs relating to these actions.
