Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
As a financial services company, the Registrant is navigating through the
current challenging economic environment. In response to this, on May 13, 2008,
the Registrant reduced its staffing by approximately 14%. This action was part
of an overall effort to reduce operating costs in light of the Registrant's
decision to moderate growth in fiscal 2008.
Approximately 51 employees were affected as a result of the staff reduction.
On May 13, 2008, the Registrant notified the affected employees. The Registrant
currently estimates that, in connection with this reduction, it will incur
pre-tax costs in fiscal second quarter of approximately $485,000, almost all of
which is related to severance costs. The total annualized pre-tax cost savings
that are expected to result from this reduction are estimated to be
approximately $2.64 million. Although the Registrant believes that its estimates
are appropriate and reasonable based on available information, actual results
could differ from these estimates.
