Special Charges/Recoveries | Special Charges, net General Background Special Charges, net generally includes restructuring costs, costs to exit a product line or program, litigation settlements and other special charges or gains that are generally not reflective of our core-business operational results. During 2016, we have initiated certain restructuring activities, under which we continue to simplify our business ("2016 Actions"). Under these restructurings, we will reduce expenses, primarily through closing a number of smaller facilities. On November 3, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the closure and exit of our Brazil manufacturing operations ("Brazil Closure") due to the economic realities in Brazil and the ongoing challenges with our only significant end customer, Petrobras. CIRCOR Brazil has reported substantial operating losses every year since it was acquired in 2011 while the underlying market conditions and outlook have deteriorated. In connection with the closure, we recorded $2.3 million in special charges within the Energy Segment during the six months ended July 3, 2016 which primarily related to employee termination costs and losses incurred subsequent to our Q1 2016 closure of manufacturing operations. As of July 3, 2016 , our remaining Brazil assets were $2.4 million of which $0.9 million relates to assets held for sale, $0.9 million relates to cash, and $0.5 million relates to net third party accounts receivables. The Brazil assets held for sale as of July 3, 2016 are reported within the other current assets caption on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. In July 2015, we announced the closure of one of the two Corona, California manufacturing facilities ("California Restructuring"). Under this restructuring, we are reducing certain general, manufacturing and facility related expenses. On April 15, 2015, we acquired Germany-based Schroedahl, a privately-owned manufacturer of safety and control valves primarily in the power generation market. In connection with our acquisition of Schroedahl, we recorded certain acquisition related professional fees ("Acquisition related charges") as special charges. On February 18, 2015, we announced additional restructuring actions ("2015 Announced Restructurings"), under which we continued to simplify our businesses. Under this restructuring, we reduced certain general, administrative and manufacturing related expenses, primarily personnel related.

These charges primarily related to equity award modification charges. On January 6, 2015 we announced the divestiture of two of our non-core businesses ("Divestitures") as part of our simplification strategy. The Energy divestiture was substantially completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. During the first quarter of 2015, the Aerospace & Defense divestiture was substantially completed and we recorded a special gain of $1.0 million . On April 22, 2014, we announced additional restructuring actions ("2014 Announced Restructurings"), under which we continued to simplify our businesses.

As of July 3, 2016 , any remaining inventory in our Brazilian operations has been fully provided for. During the first quarter of 2016, in connection with the restructuring of certain structural landing gear product lines, we recorded inventory related charges of less than $0.1 million within the Aerospace & Defense segment. As of July 3, 2016 , our remaining structural landing gear product line inventory balance is $1.5 million , which we believe is recoverable based upon our net realizable value analysis.
