Restructuring

Note I: Restructuring

In the fourth quarter of 2011, we implemented a restructuring plan to improve our financial performance. Related to these initiatives, we announced in December 2011 that we would transition the manufacture and distribution of RTMS products to a third party, reduce our workforce and contract certain facilities. As a result of these actions, we recorded restructuring charges within all reportable segments that were comprised of termination benefits, facility closure costs and inventory charges. Approximately $76,000 was recorded in operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The following table shows the restructuring activity for 2012 (in thousands):

We expect to settle the remaining liability in 2012. In addition, we expect to incur approximately $50,000 to $100,000 of restructuring charges in the remainder of 2012 related to additional employee termination benefits and other costs.
