Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On January 29, 2008, during its earnings call, Yahoo! Inc. (the "Company")
reported that it plans to implement a strategic workforce realignment to more
appropriately allocate resources to the Company's key strategic initiatives. The
strategic realignment involves investing resources in some areas, reducing
resources in others and eliminating some areas of the Company's business that do
not support the Company's strategic priorities. The Company began, on
February 11, 2008, providing notices to employees whose employment would be
terminated as part of the realignment.
In connection with the strategic workforce realignment, the Company expects to
incur pre-tax cash charges of $20 million to $25 million for severance pay
expenses and related cash expenditures associated with the workforce reductions.
Total charges will include these cash charges plus additional charges related to
stock compensation expense which the Company is unable to estimate at this time.
The Company expects to recognize the majority of the foregoing charges in the
first quarter of 2008, with the remaining costs being recognized over the
remainder of 2008.
