Item 2.02   Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 8, 2008, we announced certain expected financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007 in the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Item 2.02 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in this Item 2.02 shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 2.05   Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On February 8, 2008, we announced the implementation of a restructuring plan that will include severance costs and fees associated with facility reductions in the range of $1.0 million to $2.0 million. The plan is designed to better align our resources with our strategic business objectives. The majority of the activities comprising the cost reduction plan are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2008. We expect to record severance costs in the range of $500,000 to $1.0 million and we expect to record facility reduction costs in the range of $500,000 to $1.0 million. The majority of the charges associated with the restructuring plan are expected to result in future cash expenditures.
Item 2.06   Material Impairments.
On February 8, 2008, we announced in the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 that while we are still completing the review of our fourth quarter 2007 financial results, our initial assessment is that we will need to complete both steps of the analysis prescribed under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
