Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

The Company records the cost reduction plan activities in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), including ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, ASC 712 Compensation-Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits and ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment (Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets).

During the third quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company implemented a plan to improve operational efficiencies, which included the closure of its German-based operations and facilities, centralization of its international financial operations, and realignment of its international and U.S. tax structure (the “Plan”). During the three months ended September 30, 2014 and in conjunction with the Plan, the Company committed to a reduction in force. As of September 23, 2014, the Company communicated the reduction to affected employees. The Company anticipates that it will substantially complete the implementation of its Plan by the first half of 2015.

The Company currently estimates that $4.7 million to $5.2 million of restructuring charges will be incurred in connection with the Plan, including:


(1)	The Company estimates that it will incur total expenses relating to employee termination benefits, which primarily include severance and transitional-related expenses, of approximately $2.7 million, all of which represents cash expenditures. Of this amount, the Company expects to record $0.2 million to $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2015.

(2)

In connection with the closure of its German operations pursuant to the Plan, the Company expects disposals of approximately 11000 square feet of leased facilities in Duisburg and Munich, Germany, representing approximately 6% of its global facilities square footage. The Company expects to incur approximately $0.5 million in the aggregate facilities disposal charges pursuant to the Plan, beginning in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and throughout the first half of 2015.


(3)	Beginning in the third quarter of 2014 through the first half of 2015, the Company anticipates incurring periodic restructuring expenditures in an aggregate amount of $1.5 million to $2.0 million, comprised of legal and professional fees associated with the execution of the Plan.
