Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company implemented a global cost reduction and restructuring plan to better align its global cost and organizational structure with its current strategic initiatives. This plan included the consolidation and streamlining of the Company’s business processes and a reduction in its global workforce and other expenses. These actions resulted in restructuring charges related primarily to cash-based severance costs of $6.1 million during the six months ended July 30, 2016. There were no restructuring charges incurred during the three months ended July 30, 2016 related to this plan. The Company does not expect significant future cash-based severance charges to be incurred as the actions under this plan were substantially completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. As of July 30, 2016, the Company had a balance of approximately $1.1 million in accrued expenses for amounts expected to be paid during the remainder of fiscal 2017.

The exit tax charge has not been finalized with the local authorities and actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates as negotiations are completed.
