05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
ITEM 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. On September 26, 2024, the Board of Directors of Trinseo PLC (the "Company") approved a restructuring plan (the "2024 Restructuring Plan") designed to reduce costs by streamlining commercial and operational activities and to further improve profitability and better position the Company for longer term growth and cash flow generation. The 2024 Restructuring Plan includes: (i) combining the management of its Engineered Materials, Plastics Solutions and Polystyrene businesses, effective October 1, 2024, (ii) a reduction in workforce of supporting functions and (iii) exit of virgin polycarbonate production at its Stade, Germany production facility. The Company expects to record total pre-tax restructuring charges of $23 million to $28 million, principally comprised of $22 million to $26 million of severance and related benefit costs and $1 million to $2 million of asset-related and contract termination charges, primarily related to the virgin polycarbonate manufacturing site in Stade, Germany. The anticipated future cash payments associated with these charges, primarily related to severance and related benefit costs are expected to be approximately $22 million to $26 million with substantially all payments to be made by the end of 2026. The Company expects the 2024 Restructuring Plan actions, certain of which are subject to the satisfaction of local law requirements in various jurisdictions, to commence in the third quarter of 2024 and be completed by the end of 2026. However, the actual timing and costs of the 2024 Restructuring Plan may differ from the Company's current expectations and estimates and such differences may be material since these charges are subject to ongoing negotiations with works councils, industrial associations and government authorities. The Company estimates that the 2024 Restructuring Plan initiatives will deliver approximately $45 million to $50 million of annualized profitab
