Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On October 1, 2026, the Company announced a multi-year enterprise program, which includes and builds upon the previous cost realignment plan announced in March 2026, collectively known as Pace (the "program"). The program is intended to enhance productivity, improve organizational effectiveness, and decrease the Company’s cost structure. The program includes initiatives to further optimize the Company’s global supply chain, better align the Company’s organizational structure to support its strategic goals, including through the establishment of a new campus in India and realigning the Company’s operating model into three geographies, as well as further streamlining of the organization to reduce costs.
The Board of Directors of the Company approved steps to implement the program, which are expected to result in pre-tax charges of approximately $1.0 billion, which is in addition to approximately $0.3 billion of severance costs recognized in fiscal 2026 in connection with the March 2026 plan. These costs are expected to consist primarily of employee severance and other employee-related costs. The Company expects approximately $0.3 billion to be recognized in fiscal 2027, with the remainder expected to be recognized through fiscal 2031. It is estimated that the majority of the charges will result in future cash expenditures and all charges will be substantially incurred by the end of fiscal 2031, subject to local law requirements.
The Company expects the program to deliver approximately $2.5 billion in cumulative savings through fiscal 2031. The savings estimate is stated before the expected pre-tax charges described above and any future reinvestment.
The expected savings, pre-tax charges and future cash expenditures are estimates and are subject to a number of assumptions, including local law requirements in various jurisdictions. Actual savings, charges and cash expenditures may differ, possibly materially, from the estimates provided above.
