Restructuring and Other Costs Restructuring and Other Costs
Optimization of Company Operations, Profitability Improvement and Growth Acceleration
The Company continues to identify opportunities for improvements in its workforce realignment, strategy and staffing, and its focus on performance management, to ensure it has the right skill sets and number of associates to execute its long-term vision. As such, from time to time the Company extends voluntary and involuntary severance and separation benefits to certain associates in order to facilitate its workforce realignment. During the thirteen weeks ended November 29, 2025, the Company reduced its headcount by eliminating various positions as part of its sales optimization efforts as the Company implements its refreshed go to market strategy. The Company expects this restructuring event to continue into its second fiscal quarter with additional severance and separation costs of approximately $1,500.
As part of the Company’s strategic realignment efforts to optimize its supply chain and distribution network and enhance operational efficiency, the Company engaged consultants beginning in fiscal year 2024 and ending in fiscal year 2025. As such, the Company incurred consulting-related costs in order to facilitate its network optimization and workforce realignment that qualify as exit and disposal costs under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In addition, from time to time, the Company incurs certain expenses that are an integral component of, and directly contribute to, its restructuring activities, which do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These expenses include professional and consulting-related costs directly associated with the optimization of the Company’s operations and profitability improvement, which are also included in Restructuring and other costs in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table summarizes Restructuring and other costs for the thirteen-week periods ended November 29, 2025 and November 30, 2024:
