19. RESTRUCTURING

 

During the second half of 2019, the Company initiated a restructuring plan to realign its expense structure with the reduction in revenue experienced in recent years and overall Company objectives. As part of this restructuring plan, the Company announced plans to reduce its overall operating expenses, both in the U.S. and internationally. Management continued to assess the efficiency of operations during 2020 and the first nine months of 2021 and, in turn, consolidated locations and personnel, among other things, where possible.

In February 2019, the Company announced the restructuring of a certain portion of its workforce predominantly in Germany, which included the closure of the Company’s office location in Munich, Germany accompanied by relocation or severance benefits for the affected employees. Voluntary early retirement was offered to certain other employees and was announced in March 2019 and again in August 2020.

The cumulative amount of restructuring expenses incurred as of September 30, 2021 for the restructuring plans was $12.5 million.
