Restructuring and Management Transition
Restructuring and Management Transition

In the first quarter of 2017, the Company finalized plans to close 138 stores to help align the Company's brick-and-mortar presence with its omnichannel network, thereby redirecting capital resources to invest in locations and initiatives that offer the greatest revenue potential. The store closures resulted in a $77 million asset impairment charge for store assets with limited future use and a $14 million severance charge for the expected displacement of store associates. During the three months ended October 28, 2017, $52 million in store related closing and other costs such as certain lease obligations were recorded as a result of each respective store ceasing operations.
The components of Restructuring and management transition include:
•
Home office and stores — charges for actions to reduce our store and home office expenses including employee termination benefits, store lease termination and impairment charges;
•
Management transition — charges related to implementing changes within our management leadership team for both incoming and outgoing members of management; and
•
Other — charges related primarily to contract termination costs and costs related to the closure of certain supply chain locations.
The composition of Restructuring and management transition charges was as follows:
