Restructuring and Impairment Charges

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $13.9 million for employee termination costs for 278 employees, of whom 87 were terminated as of March 31, 2014. These charges primarily related to the integration of Consolidated Graphics, including the closure of three Consolidated Graphics facilities as well as one additional facility closure within the Variable Print segment, one facility closure in the Publishing and Retail Services segment and the reorganization of certain operations. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company also recorded $6.7 million of impairment charges primarily related to buildings and machinery and equipment associated with facility closings. The fair values of the buildings and machinery and equipment were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy and were estimated based on discussions with real estate brokers, review of comparable properties, if available, discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $8.8 million for employee termination costs for 393 employees, all of whom were terminated as of March 31, 2014. These charges primarily related to the closing of one manufacturing facility within each of the Publishing and Retail Services and Variable Print segments and the reorganization of certain operations. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, including charges related to multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations. The Company also recorded $4.1 million of impairment charges primarily related to buildings and machinery and equipment associated with facility closings for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The fair values of the buildings and machinery and equipment were determined to be Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy and were estimated based on discussions with real estate brokers, review of comparable properties, if available, discussions with machinery and equipment brokers, dealer quotes and internal expertise related to the current marketplace conditions.

Other Charges

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded other charges of $20.5 million as a result of its decision to withdraw from certain multi-employer pension plans.  These charges for multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations, unrelated to facility closures, represent the Company’s best estimate of the expected settlement of these withdrawal liabilities. The liabilities for these withdrawal obligations included $3.8 million and $88.2 million in accrued liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities, respectively, as of March 31, 2014.

It is reasonably possible that the Company will withdraw from the remaining multi-employer pension plans in the near term, with a potential liability ranging from $5 million to $10 million in the aggregate. The Company’s withdrawal liability may be disproportionate to its current costs of continuing to participate in the plans and could be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in the plans and any decision by other participating employers to withdraw from the plans in the future.  While it is not possible to quantify the potential impact of future events or circumstances, further reductions in participation or withdrawals from multi-employer pension plans could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated annual results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Restructuring Reserve

The restructuring reserve as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, and changes during the three months ended March 31, 2014, were as follows:

The current portion of restructuring reserves of $36.1 million at March 31, 2014 was included in accrued liabilities, while the long-term portion of $46.3 million, primarily related to multi-employer pension plan complete or partial withdrawal obligations related to facility closures and lease termination costs, was included in other noncurrent liabilities at March 31, 2014.

The Company anticipates that payments associated with the employee terminations reflected in the above table will be substantially completed by March 2015.

Payments on all of the Company’s multi-employer pension plan complete or partial withdrawal obligations are scheduled to be substantially completed by 2034. Changes based on uncertainties in these estimated withdrawal obligations could affect the ultimate charges related to multi-employer pension plan withdrawals.

The restructuring liabilities classified as “lease terminations and other” consisted of lease terminations, other facility closing costs and contract termination costs. Payments on certain of the lease obligations are scheduled to continue until 2026. Market conditions and the Company’s ability to sublease these properties could affect the ultimate charges related to the lease obligations. Any potential recoveries or additional charges could affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of future periods.
