17. RESTRUCTURING:

 

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020, the Company approved the dissolution of Aehr Test Systems Japan K.K (“ATS-Japan”), a majority owned subsidiary. In connection with the dissolution plan, the Company recognized approximately $220,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 related to severance payments for individuals impacted in this reduction, legal fees associated with the dissolution process, and write-off of assets. The ATS-J subsidiary was dissolved in March 2020. The liquidation process occurred from March 2020 through the final liquidation in July 2020, allowing creditors time to submit claims and time for ATS-J to wind down and disposition any assets.
