  source text: On April 29, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an expansion of its previously announced Business Optimization Plan to complete strategic initiatives, integration and simplification following the Micro Focus acquisition, AMC divestiture and other growth and innovation plans including the deployment of AI and automation. The Company expects up to approximately $200 million of additional costs to be incurred to complete this final phase of the Business Optimization Plan, bringing the combined plan up to approximately $260 million. This expansion includes costs associated with workforce reduction due to automation, centralization and simplification, and corresponding facility costs related to a reduction of the Company’s real estate footprint globally. On an overall basis, the expansion is expected to result in a total net reduction of approximately 2,000 positions, an increase of approximately 1,600 positions from the previously announced plan.
