Restructuring and Integration Expense Restructuring and Integration Expense
As part of restructuring and integration activities, the Company has incurred expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include severance and employee benefit costs as well as other direct separation benefit costs, expenses incurred related to the facilities consolidation plan, and right of use asset impairment charges. Severance and employee benefit costs primarily relate to cash severance, as well as non-cash severance, including accelerated equity award compensation expense. The Company also incurred expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, our restructuring and integration activities, which do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include integration implementation costs that relate primarily to professional fees and non-cash losses incurred on debt extinguishment, and accelerated depreciation of fixed assets.
The expense associated with integration initiatives are included in Selling, General, and Administrative and the expense associated with restructuring activities are included in Cost of sales or Restructuring expense in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Restructuring expense recorded within Cost of sales totaled $1.6 million for the twelve months ended May 30, 2026. Amounts recorded within Restructuring expense, which is a component of Operating expenses totaled $11.9 million for the twelve months ended May 30, 2026.
