The investment is expected to accelerate innovation, expand capacity and optimize our U.S. chemistries manufacturing and distribution network. The Consolidation Plan includes the anticipated closure of chemistry manufacturing and distribution facilities in St. Louis, Missouri, and Plymouth, Minnesota. The Company currently expects to incur total pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $55 million to $70 million, consisting of approximately $40 million to $50 million of cash expenditures and approximately $15 million to $20 million of non-cash charges. Cash expenditures are expected to primarily consist of Associate retention, severance and benefits, and also include transition, facility exit and other related costs. Non-cash charges are expected to primarily relate to accelerated depreciation. These charges are expected to be incurred over time, with completion anticipated to occur during fiscal 2030, and will be excluded from adjusted earnings measurements.Forward-Looking StatementThis Current Report on Form 8-K may contain statements concerning certain trends, expectations, forecasts, estimates, or other forward-looking information affecting or relating to STERIS or its industry, products or activities that are intended to qualify for the protections afforded “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other laws and regulations.
