Fiscal 2016 Actions During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company decided to initiate a cost reduction initiative in part of its Diagnostic's reportable segment, resulting in the termination of certain employees. The majority of employees were notified of termination and related benefits in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, and the Company recorded these charges pursuant to ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (ASC 420) as the benefits qualify as one-time termination benefits. As such, the Company recorded a charge for severance and benefits of $0.9 million in the fourth quarter. Additional charges of $0.2 million are expected in fiscal 2017 related to this Action. During the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company decided to close its Bedford, Massachusetts facility where it manufactured its Skeletal Health products and provided certain support manufacturing services for its Breast Health segment. The manufacturing of the Skeletal Health products has been outsourced to a third-party, and the Breast Health manufacturing services were moved to the Company's Danbury, Connecticut and Marlborough, Massachusetts facilities. In addition, research and development, sales and services support and administrative functions have been or will be moved to both Marlborough and Danbury. The transition is expected to be substantially completed by the end of calendar year 2016. In connection with this plan, certain employees, primarily in manufacturing, were terminated. The employees were notified of termination and related benefits in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, and the Company recorded these charges pursuant to ASC 420. Employees were required to remain employed during this transition period and charges were recorded ratably over the required service period. The Company recorded $1.7 million in severance and benefits charges related to this action in fiscal 2016. This action is complete and no additional severance and benefits charges are expected. In connection with shutting down the Bedford location, the Company expects to record lease obligation charges ranging from approximately $8.0 million to $12.0 million in fiscal 2017 as it meets the cease-use date requirements for a portion of the facility. In order to estimate the lease obligation charges, the Company has made certain assumptions including the time period it will take to obtain a subtenant and certain sub-lease rates. These estimates may vary from the sub-lease agreements ultimately executed, if at all, resulting in an adjustment to the charges. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company began implementing a second plan to consolidate and improve operational efficiency of its international sales and marketing and field services operations and certain support functions. As a result, the Company identified and terminated certain employees during each quarter in fiscal 2016. Severance and benefits under this action were recorded pursuant to ASC 712, Compensation-Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits (ASC 712), and ASC 420 depending on the circumstances. The Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $7.9 million in fiscal 2016 related to this plan. Included in this charge was $0.4 million of stock-based compensation. Fiscal 2015 Actions During each quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company continued to make executive management changes resulting in the termination of certain executives and employees on a worldwide basis. In addition, the Company continued to consolidate and close certain international offices to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. Severance and benefit charges under these actions were recorded pursuant to ASC 712 and ASC 420 depending on the employees terminated, and the Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $10.0 million in fiscal 2015. Included in the charge was $4.1 million of stock-based compensation. No additional charges will be recorded under these actions. In connection with its review of operations, the Company decided to shut-down its manufacturing operation in China, which manufactured mammography systems for the Chinese market. As a result, the Company terminated manufacturing and research and development personnel located in China, and the severance charge was insignificant. Fiscal 2014 Actions During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company implemented a cost reduction initiative comprised of reducing headcount and evaluating research projects and operating costs. In connection with this plan, the Company terminated certain employees on a worldwide basis. The Company recorded the severance and benefit charges pursuant to ASC 420 and ASC 712, depending on the employee terminated. The Company recorded $6.3 million of severance and benefit charges in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, which included $0.4 million of stock-based compensation. On December 6, 2013, Stephen P. MacMillan was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company. The employment of John W. Cumming, the Company’s prior President and Chief Executive Officer, terminated upon Mr. MacMillan’s appointment. The Company provided separation benefits to Mr. Cumming pursuant to his employment letter dated July 18, 2013 resulting in a charge of $6.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, which included $4.4 million of stock-based compensation related to the acceleration of all of Mr. Cumming’s outstanding equity awards in accordance with the existing terms of Mr. Cumming’s share-based payment arrangements. In the second, third, and fourth quarters of fiscal 2014, the Company continued to make executive management changes and implement additional cost reduction initiatives resulting in the termination of certain executives and employees on a worldwide basis. In addition, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 the Company decided to consolidate and close certain international offices. Severance and benefit charges under these actions were recorded pursuant to ASC 420 and ASC 712 depending on the employees terminated, and the Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $16.6 million in fiscal 2014. Included in the charge was $1.8 million of stock-based compensation for the modification of the terms of equity awards to certain employees. For those employees who continued to be employed beyond the minimum retention period, charges were recorded ratably over the estimated service period of the affected employees. During fiscal 2015, the Company recorded $6.0 million for severance and benefits costs and $2.0 million for facility closure costs related to this action. The facility closure costs primarily relate to lease obligation charges for three office locations that were vacated and the Company had met the cease-use date criteria. This action was completed in fiscal 2015. Consolidation of Diagnostics Operations In connection with its acquisition of Gen-Probe in fiscal 2012, the Company implemented restructuring actions to consolidate its Diagnostics operations, including streamlining product development initiatives, reducing overlapping functional areas in sales, marketing and general and administrative functions, and consolidating manufacturing resources, field services and support. As a result, the Company terminated certain employees from Gen-Probe and its legacy diagnostics business in research and development, sales, marketing, and general and administrative functions. The Company recorded severance and benefit charges in fiscal 2012 of $13.3 million related to this action pursuant to ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (ASC 420). The majority of these employees ceased working in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, and their full severance charge was recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. In addition, certain of the terminated Gen-Probe employees had unvested stock options, which were accelerated at termination pursuant to the stock options’ original terms. As such, the severance charges in fiscal 2012 include $3.5 million of stock-based compensation expense. In fiscal 2013, the Company recorded $10.8 million of severance charges, including $6.3 million for stock-based compensation. Included in these charges was $9.7 million recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 related to the termination of certain Gen-Probe executives, including Carl Hull, Gen-Probe’s former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. The charge was for the acceleration of certain retention payments and equity awards pursuant to the original terms of the related agreements. No additional charges were recorded in fiscal 2014, 2015 or 2016 under this portion of the action. In addition, under this plan, the Company completed moving its legacy molecular diagnostics operations from Madison, Wisconsin to Gen-Probe’s facilities in San Diego, California. This transfer was completed at the end of fiscal 2014, and as a result, many of the employees in Madison were terminated. The Company recorded severance and benefit charges pursuant to ASC 420 beginning in fiscal 2012 through the third quarter of fiscal 2015 as charges were recorded over requisite service periods. The Company recorded $0.1 million, $3.0 million, $3.2 million and $0.9 million for severance and benefits in fiscal 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $0.5 million for facility closure costs in fiscal 2015. The Company also recorded non-cash charges of $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 as a result of exiting certain research projects. This action is complete and no additional charges were recorded in fisca1 2016. Other Operating Cost Reductions: Hitec-Imaging Organic Photoconductor Manufacturing Line Shut-down In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, in connection with the Company’s cost reduction initiatives, the Company decided to shut-down its Hitec-Imaging organic photoconductor manufacturing line located in Germany. This production line was included within the Breast Health segment. As a result, the Company terminated certain employees, primarily in manufacturing, in fiscal 2014. During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company completed its negotiations with the local Works Council to determine severance benefits for the approximately 95 affected employees. The Company recorded severance and benefit charges pursuant to ASC 420 and began notifying the affected employees in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The Company recorded charges of $0.3 million and $8.7 million in fiscal 2015 and 2014, respectively in connection with terminating these employees. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $3.1 million to record certain buildings at this location to their estimated fair value. Divestitures In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company completed the sale of its MRI breast coils product line and recorded a loss on disposal of $5.3 million. The Company also provided certain transition services through April 2015, including the manufacturing and sale of inventory to the buyer. Since all operations had ceased during the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company concluded that this subsidiary had been substantially liquidated and recorded a $9.6 million charge in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 related to writing off the cumulative translation adjustment related to the subsidiary.
