RESTRUCTURING, IMPAIRMENT AND OTHER

We recorded restructuring, impairment and other charges of $146 million and $59 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $308 million and $101 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Details of these charges are discussed below.

RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

In the current and prior periods, we approved various restructuring plans globally, mainly to consolidate manufacturing and service facilities, rationalize product lines and rooftops, and reduce headcount across various functions. As a result, we recognized a charge of $68 million and $38 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $193 million and $73 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These restructuring initiatives will generate charges post June 30, 2018, and the related estimated remaining charges are approximately $151 million.

The amount of costs not included in the reported segment results is as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017

Digital Solutions	7		4		16		14
Corporate	4		2		21		4

These costs were primarily related to product line terminations, plant closures and related expenses such as property, plant and equipment impairments, contract terminations and costs of assets' and employees' relocation, employee-related termination benefits, and other incremental costs that were a direct result of the restructuring plans.
