Restructuring and Other Charges
13. Restructuring and Other Charges
The Company started a cost transformation initiative in the second half of fiscal 2024 with the goal of optimizing investments for sustainable, long-term growth. This included the August 14, 2024 initiation of a restructuring plan (the "2024 restructuring plan") that involved a reduction in force of approximately 6% of its employees and a reduction to its real estate footprint. In furtherance of this initiative, the Company announced a subsequent restructuring on February 5, 2025, including a reduction in force involving approximately 12% of its employees (the “2025 restructuring plan”). This cost transformation also involved non-recurring charges related to rationalization of its product roadmap and costs related to write-offs of assets no longer in use. Furthermore, in January 2025, Patrick Spence stepped down from his role as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and as a member of the Board, resulting in the Company incurring costs related to this transition, which are also included in restructuring and other charges.
The following table summarizes the components of restructuring and other charges:
