Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On May 27, 2022, the Board of Directors of Proto Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a plan for the closure of the Company’s manufacturing facility in Japan and an intention to cease operations in the region. Affected employees in Japan will receive severance and other transition assistance that meet or exceed local requirements. The Company expects to substantially complete the closure plan within the next year.
The approved plan is expected to lead to total restructuring charges in the range of $7.0 million to $9.5 million, consisting of approximately $2.5 million to $3.5 million in severance and other employee-related costs, $3.5 million to $4.5 million in fixed asset and facility related write-down expenses, and $1.0 million to $1.5 million in goodwill and other write-down expenses. The company expects to incur approximately $4.0 million of the total restructuring charge in the second quarter of 2022, with the remaining charge to be incurred throughout the remainder of the restructuring process.
The total cash expenditures associated with the plan are expected to be in the range of $3.0 million to $4.0 million, consisting primarily of severance and other employee-related costs.
