Restructuring and Impairment Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $23.5 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of selling, general, and administrative functions primarily within the Corporate, International, and Variable Print segments, the termination of the Company’s relationship in a joint venture within the International segment and a facility closure in the Strategic Services segment. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Additionally in the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded net impairment charges of $22.4 million, primarily related to the $21.3 million impairment of the goodwill for the digital and creative solutions (“DCS”) reporting unit, which is included within the Strategic Services segment. The goodwill impairment charge in the DCS reporting unit was due to a major client beginning to transition their business away from DCS during the fourth quarter of 2017, as well as declines in sales with other existing clients which resulted in lower expectations of future revenues, profitability and cash flows. As of December 31, 2017, the DCS reporting unit had no remaining goodwill. The goodwill impairment charges were determined using Level 3 inputs, including comparable marketplace fair value data and a discontinued cash flow analysis. The remaining impairment charges recorded for the year ended December 31, 2017, included a $0.2 million impairment charge related to the impairment of intangible assets in the commercial and digital print reporting unit within the Variable Print segment and $0.9 million of impairment charges of other long-lived assets related to facility closures, partially offset by gains on the sale of previously impaired assets.

Other Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded charges of $2.3 million for multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations unrelated to facility closures. The total liabilities for the withdrawal obligations associated with the Company’s decision to withdraw from all multi-employer pension plans included in accrued liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities are $5.1 million and $31.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2017. See Note 9, Retirement Plans, for further discussion of multi-employer pension plans.

The Company’s multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liabilities could be affected by the financial stability of other employers participating in the plans and any decisions by those employers to withdraw from the plans in the future. While it is not possible to quantify the potential impact of future events or circumstances, reductions in other employers’ participation in multi-employer pension plans, including certain plans from which the Company has previously withdrawn, could have a material impact on the Company’s previously estimated withdrawal liabilities, consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded the following restructuring, impairment and other charges-net:

	Employee Terminations		Other Restructuring Charges			Total Restructuring Charges		Impairment			Other Charges		Total
Variable Print	$	1.4	$	1.7		$	3.1	$	557.9		$	1.9	$	562.9

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $21.9 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to the reorganization of certain corporate administrative functions and operations and two facility closures in the International segment. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

In addition, in the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded net impairment charges of $556.6, primarily related to the $416.2 million and $111.6 million impairment of goodwill in the commercial and digital print and statement printing reporting units, respectively, which are included within the Variable Print segment. The goodwill impairment charges were due to the continued declines in sales, primarily due to decreased volume, which resulted in a reduction in the estimated fair value of the reporting units based on lower expectations of future revenue, profitability and cash flows as compared to the expectations as of the October 31, 2016 annual goodwill impairment test. The goodwill impairment charges were determined using the Level 3 inputs, including discounted cash flow analysis, comparable marketplace fair value data and management’s assumptions in valuing the significant tangible and intangible assets. The remaining charges for the year ended December 31, 2016, included a $29.7 million impairment charge for certain acquired client relationship intangible assets in the commercial and digital print reporting unit within the Variable Print segment and $0.9 million of net gains on the sale of previously impaired assets. The impairment of the client relationship intangible assets resulted from lower expectations of future revenue to be derived from those relationships and was determined using Level 3 inputs and estimated based on cash flow analyses, which included management’s assumptions related to future revenues and profitability.

Other Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded charges of $2.3 million for multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations unrelated to facility closures. The total liabilities for the withdrawal obligations associated with the Company’s decision to withdraw from all multi-employer pension plans included in accrued liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities are $4.9 million and $34.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2016.

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded net restructuring charges of $22.4 million for employee termination costs. These charges primarily related to a facility closure in the International segment, one facility closure in the Variable Print segment and the reorganization of certain operations. Additionally, the Company incurred lease termination and other restructuring charges of $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.

In the third quarter of 2015, as the result of the Company’s interim goodwill impairment review performed under the Company’s previous segment and reporting unit structure, the Company recorded non-cash charges of $13.7 million and $4.3 million to recognize the impairment of goodwill in the former Europe and Latin America reporting units, respectively, both of which were within the International segment. The goodwill impairment charge in the former Europe reporting unit was due to the announced reorganization of certain operations which resulted in a reduction in the estimated fair value of the reporting unit based on lower expectations of future revenue, profitability and cash flows as compared to the expectations as of prior year annual goodwill impairment test. The goodwill impairment charges were determined using Level 3 inputs, including discounted cash flow analyses, comparable marketplace fair value data and management’s assumptions in valuing the significant tangible and intangible assets.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company also recorded non-cash impairment charges of $11.9 million for the impairment of intangible assets, including $9.2 million and $2.2 million related to the impairment of certain acquired client relationship intangible assets in the previous labels reporting unit within the Variable Print segment and the Latin America reporting unit within the International segment, respectively. The impairment of the client relationship intangible assets resulted from lower expectations of future revenue to be derived from those relationships and was determined using Level 3 inputs and estimated based on cash flow analyses, which included management’s assumptions related to future revenues and profitability. The remaining impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2015, included net gains of $1.0 million primarily related to the sale of previously impaired 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

Other Charges

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded $2.2 million of charges for multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations unrelated to facility closures.

Restructuring Reserve

The restructuring reserve as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2017, were as follows:

The current portion of restructuring reserves of $10.7 million at December 31, 2017 was included in accrued liabilities, while the long-term portion of $12.8 million, primarily related to multi-employer pension plan withdrawal obligations related to facility closures, employee terminations in litigation within the International segment and lease termination costs, was included in other noncurrent liabilities at December 31, 2017.

The Company anticipates that payments associated with the employee terminations reflected in the above table will be substantially completed by December 2018, excluding employee terminations in litigation within the International segment.

Payments on all of the Company’s multi-employer pension plan 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. See Note 9, Retirement Plans, for further discussion on multi-employer pension plans.

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 2020. 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 Company’s financial statements.
