SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 26, 2016, we informed employees of proposed measures intended to streamline our international operations and support future growth efforts. These measures include a redesign of our international print newspaper and the relocation of certain editing and production operations currently conducted in Paris to our locations in Hong Kong and New York. These measures would result in the elimination of approximately 70 positions.
We have initiated discussions with the relevant employee works council in Paris regarding the proposed measures. We expect to incur approximately $15 million of total costs related to the measures, including approximately $13 million of relocation and severance-related charges and approximately $2 million of lease impairment and other contract-related charges.
The proposed measures remain subject to consultation with the works council, which will be conducted in accordance with applicable French law. We currently anticipate substantially all of the charges relating to the proposed measures to be recognized in the second quarter of 2016.
