2023 Restructuring Projects
On February 23, 2023, the Board of Directors of Itron approved a restructuring plan (the 2023 Projects). The 2023 Projects include activities that continue the Company's efforts to optimize its global supply chain and manufacturing operations, sales and marketing organizations, and other overhead. These projects are to be substantially complete by early 2025. Itron estimates pre-tax restructuring charges of $40-45 million. Of the total estimated charge, approximately 95% will result in cash expenditures, and the remainder to non-cash impairment charges. The majority of the expense will be recognized during the first quarter of 2023. Certain of Itron's employees are represented by unions or works councils, which requires consultation, and potential restructuring projects may be subject to regulatory approval.
