Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring and Other Charges | Restructuring and Other Charges A description of significant restructuring and other activities and related costs is included below. Way Forward Plan On June 2, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan with the objective of delivering sustainable, profitable sales growth and long-term value creation for shareholders (the "Way Forward Plan"). The Company plans to refocus on its core brands and evolve its product, marketing, and shopping experience to increase desirability and relevance. It also intends to evolve its operating model to enable sustainable, profitable sales growth by significantly reducing supply chain lead times, improving its sourcing, and executing a disciplined multi-channel distribution and expansion strategy. As part of the Way Forward Plan, the Company plans to rightsize its cost structure and implement a return on investment-driven financial model to free up resources to invest in the brand and drive high-quality sales. The Way Forward Plan includes strengthening the Company's leadership team and creating a more nimble organization by moving from an average of nine to six layers of management. The Way Forward Plan will result in a reduction in workforce and the closure of certain stores, and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of Fiscal 2017. In connection with the Way Forward Plan, the Company currently expects to incur total estimated charges of approximately $400 million, comprised of cash-related restructuring charges of approximately $300 million and non-cash charges of approximately $100 million. The Company also expects to incur an additional non-cash charge of up to $150 million associated with the reduction of inventory out of current liquidation channels in line with its Way Forward Plan. The Company's assessment of restructuring-related activities is still ongoing and incremental charges beyond this range may be incurred. A summary of the charges recorded in connection with the Way Forward Plan during the three-month and six-month periods ended October 1, 2016 is as follows:
