4.  RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we began implementing initiatives intended to reduce costs and improve operating performance.  These initiatives included a store rationalization program as well as a profit improvement program to drive operating efficiencies and improve our expense structure.  These programs were substantially completed in fiscal 2016 and resulted in the closure of 75 Jos. A. Bank full line stores, the closure of 56 factory and outlet stores at Jos. A. Bank and Men’s Wearhouse and the closure of 102 Men’s Wearhouse and Tux stores.

No charges were incurred under these initiatives in fiscal 2018 or 2017, respectively. Cumulative pre-tax restructuring and other charges related to these programs was $109.6 million, of which approximately $68.1 million were cash expenses. 

A summary of the charges incurred are presented in the table below (amounts in thousands):
