Note 10 - Restructuring Charges and Other Exit-Related Activities

On January 8, 2020, subsequent to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company committed to certain restructuring initiatives aimed at further reducing its annual operating expenses, primarily selling, general and administrative, at Corporate, AMR and CSS, primarily through reductions in non-trade procurement spend, including outside and professional services, lower employee-related expenses and other non-headcount measures. Additionally, in April 2020, the Company announced its intention to modify its internal organizational and reporting structure to a functionally based, integrated model. The Company expects to complete this transition in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The Company expects to incur aggregate estimated restructuring charges, as defined in ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, and other exit-related costs of approximately $9 million in connection with these initiatives. The Company expects the substantial majority of the restructuring charges to be recognized by the end of fiscal 2020 and to require the Company to make cash payments. During the first nine months of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred severance costs of $2 million, exit-related costs associated with a lease contract termination of $1 million, and professional services costs related to these initiatives of $5 million.
