Restructuring | Note 3. Restructuring The Company continuously reviews its cost structure to be responsive to changes in end market demand, identify opportunities for cost synergies from recent acquisitions and in light of changes in the worldwide economy. As a result of increased uncertainty and reduced demand, the Company has implemented various restructuring initiatives including workforce reductions, plant consolidations to reduce manufacturing overhead, the continued movement of production and product sourcing to low cost countries and the centralization of certain selling and administrative functions. Restructuring costs were $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The restructuring reserve at November 30, 2012 and August 31, 2012 was $2.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The remaining restructuring related severance will be paid during the next twelve months, while facility consolidation costs (primarily reserves for future lease payments for vacated facilities) will be paid over the underlying lease terms.
