Note 4. Restructuring of Operations

 

Our restructuring activities include rationalizing our operating footprint by consolidating facilities, positioning operations in lower cost locations, and headcount reduction initiatives focused on reducing operating and overhead costs. Restructuring expense includes costs associated with current and previously announced actions and is comprised of contractual and noncontractual separation costs and exit costs, including certain costs of facilities that we are in the process of closing.

 

During 2024, we announced actions to consolidate certain manufacturing facilities along with global headcount reductions focused on reducing engineering and overhead costs in response to market dynamics, including delays in the adoption of electric vehicles. During 2026, we continued to execute on these initiatives.
