Restructuring and Impairments

Note 3 – Restructuring and Impairments

The Company continuously monitors market developments, industry trends and changing customer needs and in response, may undertake restructuring actions, as necessary, to execute management’s strategy, streamline operations and optimize the Company’s cost structure. Restructuring actions may include the realignment of existing manufacturing footprint, facility closures, or similar actions, either in the normal course of business or pursuant to significant restructuring programs.

These actions may result in employees receiving voluntary or involuntary employee termination benefits, which are mainly statutory requirements or other contractual agreements. Voluntary termination benefits are accrued when an employee accepts the related offer. Involuntary termination benefits are accrued upon the commitment to a termination plan and when the benefit arrangement is communicated to affected employees, or when liabilities are determined to be probable and estimable, depending on the existence of a substantive plan for severance or termination.

Manufacturing Footprint Rationalization

During 2019, the Company committed to a restructuring plan (“Plan”) to improve the Company’s manufacturing productivity and rationalize its footprint. Under this Plan, the Company relocated and consolidated certain automotive electronics manufacturing plants in North America and China.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not recognize any restructuring expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized restructuring expense of $50 for employee separation costs and $101 for other costs.

The Company has recorded approximately $10,359 of restructuring expenses since the inception of this program and as of March 31, 2023, $588 remains accrued.

Other Restructuring Activities

The Company has undertaken several discrete restructuring actions. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized $1,206 for employee separation costs and $63 of other costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized $30 for other costs. These restructuring expenses were primarily associated with restructuring actions focused on the reduction of global overhead costs.
