Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On January 31, 2012, Lexmark International, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2011. The text of the press release announcing the financial results is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
As part of the Company’s ongoing plans to increase the focus of the Company’s talent and resources on higher usage business platforms, the Company announced restructuring actions today. This January 2012 plan includes reductions primarily in the areas of manufacturing, marketing, sales and other infrastructure. The Company expects to redeploy a significant portion of the savings from these initiatives toward business products, solutions and channels. The company expects these actions to be principally complete by the end of the first quarter of 2013.
These January 2012 actions are expected to impact about 625 positions worldwide and will result in total pre-tax charges of approximately $35 million with approximately $8 million incurred in the fourth quarter of 2011. The company expects the total cash cost of this plan to be approximately $24 million.
Lexmark expects these January 2012 actions to generate cash savings of approximately $15 million in 2012 and ongoing cash savings beginning in 2013 of approximately $28 million. These ongoing savings should be split approximately 80% to operating expense and 20% to cost of goods sold.
