4. Special Charges

There were no special charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded special charges as a separate line within operating income in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) totaling $16.3 million, of which $0.7 million was non-cash. The charges reflect the contractual post-employment payments and equity award expense acceleration, net of forfeitures of unvested equity and liability awards and annual bonus payments of former executive officers, the termination of the Company’s corporate airplane lease, the closure of the Company’s former West Palm Beach executive office and related lease termination, and updated forecasts of expected sublease income for corporate and segment offices previously vacated.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded special charges totaling $38.4 million, of which $14.1 million was non-cash. The charges reflect certain executive leadership transition costs and costs related to actions we took to realign our workforce to address current business demands impacting our Corporate Finance & Restructuring and Forensic and Litigation Consulting segments, and to reduce certain corporate overhead within our EMEA region.
