Fiscal 2011 Restructuring
In fiscal year 2011, we announced a plan focused on the restructuring of certain licensing and developer agreements in an effort to improve the long-term profitability of our packaged goods business. Under this plan, we amended certain licensing and developer agreements. To a much lesser extent, as part of this restructuring, we had workforce reductions and facilities closures through March 31, 2011. Substantially all of these exit activities were completed by March 31, 2011.
Since the inception of the fiscal 2011 restructuring plan through March 31, 2015, we have incurred charges of $172 million, consisting of (1) $129 million related to the amendment of certain licensing agreements and other intangible asset impairment costs, (2) $31 million related to the amendment of certain developer agreements, and (3) $12 million in employee-related expenses. We do not expect to incur any additional restructuring charges under this plan. As of March 31, 2016, we have settled all accruals under this restructuring plan.
Other Restructurings and Reorganization
We also engaged in various other restructurings and a reorganization based on management decisions made in fiscal years 2013 and 2009. We do not expect to incur any additional restructuring charges under these plans. Substantially all of the accruals under these restructuring plans have been settled by March 31, 2016.
