Acquisition Integration Initiatives

In conjunction with the purchase of Viking on December 31, 2012, the company has taken actions to improve the operations of Viking. In the first quarter of 2015, the company took additional actions related to the operations of the distribution operations of Viking (Viking Distributors 2013 and Viking Distributors 2014), purchased in 2013 and 2014. These combined initiatives included organizational restructuring and headcount reductions, consolidation and disposition of certain facilities and business operations and discontinuation of certain products. During the three months ended April 4, 2015, the company recorded expense in the amount of $4.6 million for these initiatives, which is reflected in the general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings for such period. The costs and corresponding reserve balances are summarized as follows (in thousands):
