Restructuring Costs [Abstract] |
Restructuring Costs | ﻿ ﻿ 12.RESTRUCTURING COSTS ﻿ Fiscal 2016 Restructuring Costs ﻿ In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we restructured the operations of certain of our domestic sales offices. The cost of this restructuring was $0.4 million and was primarily comprised of employee severance costs, which were paid in August and September 2016. ﻿ During the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we restructured the operations of our Australian office. The restructuring was designed to reduce ongoing operating costs by closing the sales offices in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne, and by reducing headcount for administrative and certain sales support functions. Our remaining sales and support personnel in Australia will work from home offices, similar to many of our sales personnel located in the U.S. and Canada. The Australia office restructure cost $0.4 million and was primarily comprised of office closure costs, including remaining lease expense on the offices that were closed, and for employee severance costs. The severance costs included the restructuring charge totaled less than $40,000. Remaining accrued restructuring costs totaled $0.2 million at August 31, 2016 and were included as a component of accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. ﻿ Fiscal 2015 Restructuring Costs ﻿ During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we realigned our regional sales offices that serve the United States and Canada. As a result of this realignment, we closed our northeastern regional sales office located in Pennsylvania and created new geographic sales regions. In connection with this restructuring, we incurred costs related to involuntary severance and office closure costs. The restructuring charge taken during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2015 was comprised of the following (in thousands): ﻿

﻿ |  |  |
﻿Description |  |  | Amount
﻿Severance costs |  | $ | 570
﻿Office closure costs |  |  | 17
﻿ |  | $ | 587
﻿ The majority of these costs were paid prior to August 31, 2015 and the remaining restructuring liability totaled $0.1 million at August 31, 2015 and was included as a component of accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. All of the remaining accrued severance at August 31, 2015 was paid during September 2015.
