Item 2.05.                                        Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities.

 

On October 28, 2013, RealD Inc. (the “Company”) implemented a plan to reduce its workforce by approximately 20% resulting in a reduction of annual operating expenses of approximately $6 million.  The Company expects to recognize a restructuring charge of approximately $3.8 million to $4.1 million in the remaining two quarters of fiscal year 2014.  This reduction in workforce is primarily the result of recent industry trends and the maturation of the Company’s 3D cinema business in several markets, including the United States, in which equipment installations are slowing, and the resulting impact on the Company’s financial results and operations.

 

The amount of restructuring charge described above in connection with the Company’s plan to reduce its workforce is an estimate and the actual charge may vary materially based on various factors including, but not limited to, the extent of the reduction in workforce and changes in management’s assumptions.
