Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

4. RESTRUCTURING

Subsequent to the acquisition of A2iA, the Company evaluated A2iA’s operations and determined that the market for certain products was small and lacking growth opportunity, were not core to Mitek’s strategy, and were not profitable for the Company. In order to streamline the organization and focus resources going forward, the Company undertook a strategic restructuring of A2iA’s Paris operations in June 2019, which included, among other things, ceasing the sale of certain A2iA products and offerings and a reduction in workforce. Restructuring costs consist of employee severance obligations and other related costs and are expected to be paid over the next twelve months. The following table summarizes changes in the restructuring accrual during the nine months ended June 30, 2019 (amounts shown in thousands):
