Restructuring [Abstract] |
Restructuring Charges | Restructuring Charges On October 23, 2015, we initiated a plan to restructure our workforce and consolidate select facilities in order to reduce our cost structure and to realign our investments with what we believe to be our higher growth opportunities. The actions resulted in total restructuring charges of $83.3 million, primarily associated with termination benefits associated with 795 employees. In the four quarters of 2016, we recorded charges of $36.8 million, $5.0 million, $3.4 million and $31.8 million respectively. In the first quarter of 2017, we recorded additional charges of $6.3 million, of which $3.9 million related to the closure of excess facilities. As of December 31, 2016, this restructuring plan was substantially complete. Additionally, in 2016 and the first three months of 2017, we recorded a credit of $0.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively, related to prior restructuring actions included in charge to operations. In the four quarters of 2016, we made cash disbursements of $16.7 million, $25.1 million, $8.1 million and $5.1 million respectively, associated with restructuring charges. The following table summarizes restructuring accrual activity for the three months ended December 31, 2016:
