7. Restructuring Charges, Net

The Company took actions to rationalize its cost structure as a result of efficiencies obtained from prior year technology investments that enabled further integration of the legacy business and the recent acquisitions (PDI and Global Novations, LLC) as well as other cost saving initiatives. This resulted in restructuring charges, net of $9.5 million against operations in fiscal 2015, of which $9.2 million relates to severance and $0.3 million, relates to consolidation/abandonment of premises.

During fiscal 2014, the Company continued the implementation of the fiscal 2013 restructuring plan in order to integrate PDI by consolidating and eliminating certain redundant office space around the world and by continuing to consolidate certain overhead functions. This resulted in restructuring charges of $3.7 million against operations in fiscal 2014, of which $0.8 million relates to severance and $2.9 million relates to consolidation of premises.

During fiscal 2013, the Company implemented restructuring plans in order to align its cost structure to anticipated revenue levels and to integrate PDI in order to eliminate redundant positions and consolidate premises.
