Restructuring Actions

6 Months Ended

Jun. 27, 2021

During 2018, the Company announced a comprehensive restructuring plan which consisted of re-designing its go-to market strategy and re-shaping its organization to become a more responsive, innovative and digitally-driven play and entertainment company. As part of this process the Company took certain restructuring actions which continued through 2019. The actions primarily included headcount reduction aimed at right-sizing the Company’s cost-structure and giving it the ability to add required new talent in the future. In the second quarter of 2020, the Company continued to streamline its commercial organization, and recorded severance of $11.5 million associated with these cost-savings initiatives.

During 2020, in connection with the eOne Acquisition, the Company recorded $32.5 million of severance and other employee charges related to the integration of eOne. For the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2020, the related charge was $6.3 million and $19.5 million, which was recorded within acquisition and related costs on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and reported within Corporate and Eliminations.
