Restructuring Activities

Note 7: Restructuring Activities

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded severance and other restructuring costs of $5.0 million and $5.8 million, respectively. The majority of these costs were recorded in our Broadcast segment, which recognized $3.5 million and $4.3 million of severance and other restructuring costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The other restructuring costs included relocation, equipment transfer, and other costs. The Broadcast segment also recorded $2.7 million of accelerated depreciation expense for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. These costs were incurred primarily as a result of facility consolidation in New York for recently acquired locations and other acquisition integration activities. The Industrial IT segment also recognized $1.3 million of severance expense for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Of the total severance and other restructuring costs recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2013, $3.1 million, $1.0 million, and $0.9 million were included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, respectively. Of the total severance and other restructuring costs recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2013, $3.2 million, $1.6 million, and $1.0 million were included in cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development, respectively. We expect the majority of the costs related to these actions will be paid in 2013.

We expect to incur additional severance and other restructuring costs and accelerated depreciation expense in 2013 of approximately $11 million as a result of the Broadcast activities discussed above. We continue to review our business strategies and evaluate potential new restructuring actions. This could result in additional restructuring costs in future periods.
