Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On March 30, 2012, management of Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. (ESI) finalized a restructuring plan to improve efficiency, focus its resources, and implement its ongoing globalization strategy. The planned completion date for actions to be taken under the plan is September 30, 2012. This plan, together with the previously disclosed planned reduction in headcount during the quarter ended March 31, 2012, will result in ESI recording restructuring and other non-recurring charges in the quarter in the aggregate amount of approximately $5.6 million, comprised primarily of $1.3 million of severance and employee-related costs, $2.6 million of accelerated depreciation for assets that will not be used going forward, and $1.7 million in inventory charges. ESI expects approximately $0.9 million of the charges will result in future cash expenditures.
