Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit and Disposal Activities.
As recently communicated, Viavi Solutions Inc.’s end markets spend environment continues to be challenging, particularly in the service providers and enterprise customer segments and we expect the conservative spend environment to persist for the remainder of calendar year 2024. In light of this, on June 13, 2024, the Company approved a restructuring and workforce reduction plan (the “FY2024 Plan”) across various functions intended to improve operational efficiencies and better align the Company’s workforce with current business needs. The Company expects approximately 6% of its global workforce to be affected and estimates it will incur severance and termination benefits charges of approximately $15 million in connection with the Plan. The Company anticipates the Plan to result in approximately $25 million in annualized cost savings and to be substantially completed within the next four fiscal quarters.
