Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
As previously disclosed in our Form 8-K filed on September 13, 2010, FormFactor, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a plan to cease the transition of manufacturing operations to Singapore. At the time of filing, the Company was unable to make a good faith determination of an estimate or range of estimates required by paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of Item 2.05 of the Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to any charges that may be incurred as a result of this decision. This amendment updates the disclosure in Item 2.05 of its previously-filed Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 13, 2010.
The decision has resulted in a reduction in force of approximately 60 employees at its Singapore facility. The Company expects to record charges of approximately $650,000 in connection with this reduction in force associated with one-time severance benefits, which will be recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company also expects to record further charges of approximately $100,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 associated with retention bonuses. Additionally, in connection with this decision the Company expects to record additional charges of approximately $8 million related to the impairment of certain long-lived assets, including leasehold improvements, as well as the discontinuation of certain projects, in its Singapore facility. The activities comprising this action are expected to be substantially completed by end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
