| Restructuring Costs |
Note 12 – Restructuring Costs In August 2012, we executed key initiatives to reduce labor costs and improve operating efficiencies in response to the challenges in the marketplace and general market conditions. As part of the program, we closed our call center in La Salle, Illinois and reduced our workforce by 71 people resulting in severance charges of approximately $640,000 recorded in marketing expense, fulfillment expense and technology expense of $396,000, $228,000 and $16,000, respectively. We do not expect to incur additional charges subsequent to September 29, 2012. For fiscal year 2011, related to our WAG acquisition, the Company incurred acquisition and integration related costs of $3.8 million and $6.6 million for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2011, respectively, which were recorded in general and administrative expenses. These costs included one-time contract cancellation costs of $1.5 million that the Company recorded in September 2011, pursuant to ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (“ASC 420”), for terminating WAG’s sublease agreement related to its former corporate offices located in Chicago, Illinois. |
