Restructuring Charges
Due to a change in estimate, the Company recorded a restructuring credit of $36,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2016. There were no restructuring expenses recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2017.
In the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company approved a restructuring plan (the 2017 restructuring), including discontinuing development of the ClearLink Distributed Antenna System (DAS), a general reduction of headcount that spanned all three segments, and consolidation of facilities in Manchester, NH and Aurora, IL. The Company recognized a restructuring expense of $3.2 million in the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, inclusive of non-cash charges of approximately $1.2 million related to losses on leased facilities, $1.3 million of employee termination costs, and $0.7 million of other associated costs. In the three months ended June 30, 2016, a $1.2 million impairment charge of fixed assets and $1.4 million of E&O expense for ClearLink DAS inventory and pipeline inventory, associated with the IBW segment was recognized. The planned restructuring was substantially completed by March 31, 2017.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company approved a restructuring plan (the 2015 restructuring), including reduction of headcount and consolidation of office space within the Aurora headquarters facility, with the intent to optimize operations. The restructuring was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015. The Company recognized a restructuring expense of $3.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015, inclusive of a non-cash charge of $2.7 million in other associated costs related to a loss on a lease.
As of June 30, 2017, $0.7 million and $15,000 of the restructuring costs, primarily related to the office space from the 2015 restructuring and 2017 restructuring, are unpaid and accrued on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets presented in accrued restructuring and accrued restructuring non-current, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, $1.2 million and $63,000 of the restructuring costs, primarily related to the office space from the 2015 restructuring and 2017 restructuring, are unpaid and accrued on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets presented in accrued restructuring and accrued restructuring non-current, respectively. The restructuring costs are expected to be paid in full by the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 concurrent with the termination date of the contractual lease.
Total liability for restructuring charges and their utilization for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and June 30, 2016, are summarized as follows:
