During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company undertook a number of restructuring activities primarily associated with reductions in the Company's capacity and workforce in both the Customer Management Services and Customer Growth Services segments to better align the capacity and workforce with current business needs.

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company made the decision to cease operations in Spain as a result of the termination of contracts with its clients. The Company has notified the employees and has commenced severance procedures as required under Spanish law. In connection with this decision, a severance liability was established as of June 30, 2012 for $13.9 million and was included in Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

A summary of the expenses recorded in Restructuring, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, is as follows (amounts in thousands):

The remaining restructuring accruals are expected to be paid or extinguished during the next twelve months and are all classified as current liabilities within Other accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain delivery centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of an asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group's carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized $1.0 million of losses related to leasehold improvement assets in the Customer Management Services segment. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized zero and $0.2 million, respectively, of losses related to leasehold improvement assets in the Customer Management Services segment.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company elected to rebrand the Direct Alliance Corporation (“DAC”) subsidiary to Revana™. Based on this decision and management's intention not to use the DAC name on a go-forward basis, the future cash flows associated with the trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset that was established as part of the purchase price accounting of DAC in 2006 is less than the asset's carrying value. Thus the $1.8 million asset was impaired as of March 31, 2012. This expense was included in the Impairment losses in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
