Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities and Item 2.06.
Material Impairments.
On January 28, 2009, Jabil Circuit, Inc. (the "Company") filed a Current
Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission that contained
disclosure surrounding the restructuring plan that was approved by the Company's
Board of Directors on January 22, 2009 (the "2009 Restructuring Plan"). The 2009
Restructuring Plan was approved to better align the Company's manufacturing
capacity in certain geographies and to reduce the Company's worldwide workforce
by approximately 3,000 employees in order to reduce operating expenses. These
restructuring activities were intended to address market conditions and properly
size the Company's manufacturing facilities to increase the efficiencies of its
operations. At the time of filing, the Company announced that it expected to
recognize approximately $65.0 million in pre-tax restructuring and impairment
costs (which, as the Company announced in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that
it filed on April 8, 2009, excluded valuation allowances on certain deferred tax
assets), over the course of the Company's fiscal years 2009 and 2010 and that a
significant portion of the total restructuring costs would be related to
employee benefit and severance arrangements. It was also announced that the
charges related to the 2009 Restructuring Plan, excluding fixed asset impairment
charges, were expected to result in cash expenditures of approximately
$54.0 million that would be payable over the course of the Company's fiscal
years 2009 and 2010 and that upon its completion, the 2009 Restructuring Plan
was expected to yield annualized cost savings of approximately $55.0 million.
The majority of these annual cost savings was expected to be reflected as a
reduction in cost of revenue, with the remainder being reflected as a reduction
of selling, general and administrative expense. On March 24, 2009 and June 23,
2009, the Company filed amendments to the January 28, 2009 8-K by filing a Form
8-K/A on each date to disclose a determination of the restructuring and
impairment charges incurred during the Company's second and third quarters of
fiscal year 2009.
As part of the 2009 Restructuring Plan, management determined that it was
more likely than not that certain deferred tax assets would not be realized as a
result of the contemplated restructuring activities. Therefore, the Company
recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 a valuation allowance of
$13.5 million on certain deferred tax assets as a result of the 2009
Restructuring Plan.
Although such previously disclosed estimates related to the overall 2009
Restructuring Plan have not materially changed, a final determination of the
restructuring and impairment charges incurred through the Company's fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2009 has been made, as well as the estimated range of the
remaining restructuring and impairment costs and the remaining estimated cost
ranges and cash expenditures by category type, as noted below. In addition, the
Company now expects its worldwide workforce to be reduced by approximately 4,500
employees due to the 2009 Restructuring Plan and for the 2009 Restructuring Plan
to result in cash expenditures of approximately $57.4 million.
The Company expects to record approximately $53.7 million of the revised
expected total of $64.0 million of restructuring and impairment charges related
to the 2009 Restructuring Plan during the twelve months ended August 31, 2009,
including both costs associated with exit or disposal activities of
approximately $47.3 million and fixed asset impairment costs of approximately
$6.4 million. The expected costs associated with exit or disposal activities of
approximately $47.3 million include employee severance and termination benefit
costs of approximately $47.1 million, contract termination costs of
approximately $0.1 million and other restructuring costs of $0.1 million. The
Company expects to record the remaining $10.3 million in connection with the
2009 Restructuring Plan in fiscal year 2010 as follows: approximately
$6.4 million of employee severance and termination benefit costs, approximately
$3.4 million of contract termination costs, approximately $0.2 million of fixed
asset impairment costs and approximately $0.3 million of other related
restructuring costs.
Cash expenditures of approximately $19.2 million related to the 2009
Restructuring Plan were made during the twelve months ended August 31, 2009,
including approximately $19.0 million related to employee severance and
termination benefit costs and approximately $0.2 million related to contract
termination and other costs. The remaining expected cash expenditures related to
the 2009 Restructuring Plan, excluding fixed asset impairment charges, of
approximately $38.2 million are currently expected to be made primarily during
fiscal years 2010 and 2011 in the following amounts: approximately $34.5 million
of employee severance and termination benefit costs; approximately $3.4 million
of contract termination costs; and approximately $0.3 million of other related
restructuring costs.
This information will be subject to timetables for the transition of
functions, consultation with employees and their representatives as well as the
statutory severance requirements of the particular legal jurisdictions impacted.
The amount and timing of the actual charges may vary due to a variety of
factors. The 2009 Restructuring Plan as discussed reflects the Company's
intention only and the restructuring decisions at certain foreign plants are
still subject to consultation with the Company's employees and their
representatives.
To the extent required by applicable rules, the Company will file one or more
additional amendments to the Current Report on Form 8-K as details of the
Restructuring Plan are refined and estimates of related costs and charges are
finalized.
