Subsequent event

On May 1, 2018, the Company initiated a restructuring plan involving the relocation of certain manufacturing operations to an existing lower-cost location, the outsourcing of certain of the Company’s distribution operations, and related workforce reductions (the “2018 Footprint realignment plan"). These actions are expected to commence in the second quarter 2018 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2024. The following table provides a summary of the Company’s cost estimates by major type of expense associated with the 2018 Footprint realignment plan:



Type of expense	Total estimated amount expected to be incurred
Termination benefits	$60 million to $70 million
Other exit costs ₍₁₎	$2 million to $4 million
Restructuring charges	$62 million to $74 million
Restructuring related charges ₍₂₎	$40 million to $59 million
Total restructuring and restructuring related charges	$102 million to $133 million


(1)	Includes contract termination costs as well as facility closure and other exit costs (employee relocation costs, equipment relocation costs and outplacement).

(2)

Consists of pre-tax charges related to accelerated depreciation and other costs directly related to the plan, primarily project management costs and costs to transfer manufacturing operations to the new location, as well as a charge associated with the Company’s exit from the facilities that is expected to be imposed by the taxing authority in the affected jurisdiction. Excluding this tax charge, substantially all of the charges are expected to be recognized within costs of goods sold.

The Company estimates $99 million to $127 million of the restructuring and restructuring related charges will result in future cash outlays. Additionally, the Company expects that it will incur $19 million to $23 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan. The Company expects to incur most of these charges and cash outlays prior to 2024.

As the 2018 Footprint realignment plan progresses, management will reevaluate the estimated expenses and charges set forth above, and may revise its estimates, as appropriate, consistent with GAAP.
