RESTRUCTURING AND EXIT ACTIVITIES

13.          RESTRUCTURING AND EXIT ACTIVITIES

In the third quarter of 2016, in order to streamline our operating and cost structure, we initiated the closure of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Image Sensing Systems HK Limited (ISS HK) in Hong Kong; Image Sensing Systems (Shenzhen) Limited (ISS WOFE) in China. During 2020, we initiated the closure of Image Sensing Systems EMEA (ISS UK) and Image Sensing Systems Holdings Limited (ISS Holdings). At September 30, 2021, Image Sensing Systems (Shenzhen) Limited was fully closed. We incurred $28,000 of legal entity closure costs in 2021 compared to $69,000 in 2020.


In the second quarter of 2021, the Company began the process of forming a subsidiary in Chennai, India. Autoscope Technologies India Private Limited ("Autoscope India") was legally formed on October 14, 2021. Autoscope India's operations will solely focus on research and development.
