Item 8.01 Other Events
Consistent with Companys previously announced strategy of rationalizing its North American delivery platform the Company will significantly reduce operations at its Cornwall, Ontario site, and close one of its two sites located in Kingston, Ontario. In addition, as a result of a recent customer notification, the company will also close its Collinsville, Virginia site. The Kingston and Collinsville closures and the Cornwall reduction will occur gradually over the next several months and are expected to result in an aggregate reduction of approximately 940 full-time equivalent (FTE) agent positions. Approximately 100 of these FTE agent positions will be transitioned to another of the Companys sites, for a net anticipated loss of approximately 840 FTE agent positions. Although no contract has been terminated in connection with these reductions, and each of these sites in and of themselves do not represent a material reduction in the Companys revenues, we expect the cumulative effect of these reductions to result in a material revenue decline beginning in the third quarter and extending into the fourth quarter as these operations wind down.
The Company expects to incur impairment costs of approximately $0.3 million and restructuring costs, consisting primarily of severance expense, of approximately $1.1 million in connection with these reductions.
