Restructuring and Transformation Activities

2023 Actions

In the second quarter of 2023, the Company announced a comprehensive transformation initiative that includes actions that will further streamline the Company's operating model to enhance organizational efficiency and effectiveness. The total costs incurred related to these transformation activities in the second quarter of 2023 totaled $8.0 million. The transformation activities included $4.5 million of costs to execute the transformation initiatives through the use of an external consultant, a $2.4 million impairment charge for right-of-use assets related to an unoccupied office space lease and additional severance of $1.1 million, net of adjustments. The impairment charge related to the right-of-use assets is recorded in the asset impairment charge in the consolidated statements of earnings. The costs to execute and severance are included in the $5.6 million of restructuring costs incurred in the second quarter of 2023, net of prior period adjustments, and are recorded in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings, as detailed further below.

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company undertook restructuring actions to further our cost management efforts in response to the current demand levels and reflect a repositioning of our P&I staffing business to better capitalize on opportunities in local markets. Restructuring costs incurred in the first quarter of 2023 totaled $6.6 million and were recorded entirely in SG&A expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings.

The restructuring costs included in SG&A are detailed below for the second quarter and June year-to-date 2023 (in millions of dollars):

Subsequent to the second quarter of 2023, the Company announced strategic restructuring actions as part of the comprehensive transformation initiative. The actions will build on strategic progress to monetize non-core assets, reinvest capital in organic and inorganic growth initiatives, and shift to higher-margin, higher-growth business mix. The expected range for the restructuring charges to be incurred in the third quarter of 2023 as a result of these actions is $7.5 million to $8.5 million.
