Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On April 26, 2016, Propel Media, Inc. (the "Company") began notifying employees about plans to reduce the Company's workforce by 20% percent. The notifications were completed on April 27, 2016. These actions were part of a strategic plan designed to improve operational and cost efficiency.
In connection with this program, the Company estimates that during 2016 it will record a total of approximately $1,309,000 in expenses, including amounts payable in cash to the Company's former Chief Executive Officer as previously disclosed by the Company in a current report on Form 8-K filed on April 27, 2016. The expected 2016 expenses consist of cash expenditures related to one-time severance costs of $820,000 and non-cash charges for the acceleration of stock-based compensation awards $489,000. These amounts are estimates, and the actual amounts may vary. The Company expects cost savings from the plan to exceed the costs incurred in connection with the plan. The Company anticipates providing additional information regarding these actions concurrent with the release of its first-quarter results in May 2016.
This current report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
