RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
In August 2018, Altisource initiated Project Catalyst, a project intended to optimize its operations and reduce costs to better align its cost structure with its anticipated revenues and improve its operating margins. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, Altisource incurred $9.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively, of severance costs, professional services fees and technology costs related to the reorganization plan ($2.8 million and $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively). We expect to incur additional severance costs, professional services fees, technology costs and facility consolidation costs in connection with this internal reorganization, automation and other technology related activities and will expense those costs as incurred. Based on our analysis, we currently anticipate the future costs relating to Project Catalyst to be in the range of approximately $12 million to $15 million.
