Restructuring charges In fiscal year 2021, the Company recognized restructuring charges relating to workforce management costs to align the Company’s hydraulics and engine systems businesses with current market conditions.

As a result of the Termination Plan and other related actions, the Company incurred $23,673 of restructuring charges for employee severance and benefits costs.
