Portfolio Optimization Plan |
2. | Portfolio Optimization Plan
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the board of directors of the Company approved a plan to undertake an effort to optimize certain production facilities and improve efficiencies within the Company (Portfolio Optimization Plan). As part of the Portfolio Optimization Plan, in the Flavors & Extracts segment, the Company evaluated the closure of its manufacturing facility in Felinfach, Wales, United Kingdom, the closure of its sales office in Granada, Spain, and the centralization and elimination of certain selling and administrative positions. In addition, in the Color segment, the Company evaluated the closure of a manufacturing facility in Delta, British Columbia, Canada, the closure of a sales office in Argentina, and centralizing and eliminating certain production positions and selling and administrative positions. The Company reports all costs associated with the Portfolio Optimization Plan in the Corporate & Other segment. The Company’s Felinfach site will continue to operate until all production activities have successfully transferred to other locations, and then will be closed. The Company has substantially completed all other actions contemplated under the Portfolio Optimization Plan in accordance with local laws. The Company recorded non-cash impairment charges in Selling and Administrative Expenses, primarily related to certain property, plant, and equipment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, when the estimated fair value of these assets was lower than the carrying value. The property, plant, and equipment related to a product line that was shut down and determined to not be usable at other plant locations. The Company recorded $2.8 million and $3.7 million of accrued liabilities in Other Accrued Expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet related to the Portfolio Optimization Plan as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company expects the Portfolio Optimization Plan will cost approximately $40 million, of which $32.4 million has been incurred through June 30, 2024, primarily related to non-cash impairment charges and proposed employee separation costs, and upon completion would reduce annual operating costs by approximately $8 million to $10 million, with the full benefit expected to be achieved after 2025. The Company anticipates to reduce headcount by approximately 100 positions, primarily in the Flavors & Extracts and Color segments, related to certain production and selling and administrative positions.
