Restructuring And Related Activities [Abstract] |
RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES | 3. RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan In December 2018, our Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a restructuring and integration plan related to the ongoing integration of the recently acquired operations of Pinnacle (the "Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan") for the purpose of achieving significant cost synergies between the companies. We expect to incur material charges for exit and disposal activities under U.S. GAAP. Although we remain unable to make good faith estimates relating to the entire Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan, we are reporting on actions initiated through the end of fiscal 2020, including the estimated amounts or range of amounts for each major type of costs expected to be incurred, and the charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows. We have approved the incurrence of up to $360.0 million ($255.0 million of cash charges and $105.0 million of non-cash charges) in relation to operational expenditures under the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. We have incurred or expect to incur approximately $360.2 million of charges ($277.2 million of cash charges and $83.0 million of non-cash charges) for actions identified to date under the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan. We recognized charges of $73.8 million and $168.2 million in connection with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan in fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively. We expect to incur costs related to the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan through fiscal 2022. We anticipate that we will recognize the following pre-tax expenses in association with the Pinnacle Integration Restructuring Plan (amounts include charges recognized from plan inception through the end of fiscal 2020):
