Severance and Restructuring Activities | 5. Severance and Restructuring Activities During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded severance expense associated with the realignment of certain roles and responsibilities, primarily cost reduction initiatives across our U.S. business. The following table details the activity related to these resource actions for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the outstanding obligations as of September 30, 2016 (in thousands):
Adjustments were recorded as a reduction to severance and restructuring expense in North America and EMEA of $338,000 and $344,000, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, due to changes in estimates upon cash settlement of the related obligations. The remaining outstanding obligations are expected to be paid during the next 12 months and, therefore, are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
