Basis of Fair Value Measurement

 

Level 1    Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
Level 2    Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or the liability; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3    Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 
The Company has investments in equity interests that are accounted for using the equity method and are classified as part of the investment in equity interests balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. See Note 4 — “Investments in Equity Interests” for additional information.
 
See Note 9 — “Long-Term Debt” for fair value disclosures related to the Company’s Notes.
 
Note 16      STRATEGIC WORKFORCE REALIGNMENT
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company implemented a strategic workforce realignment to more appropriately allocate resources to the Company’s key strategic initiatives. The strategic realignment involves investing resources in some areas, reducing resources in others, and eliminating some areas of the Company’s business that do not support the Company’s strategic priorities.
 
As of March 31, 2008, the Company incurred total pre-tax cash charges of approximately $29 million in severance pay expenses and related cash expenses in connection with the workforce realignment. The pre-tax cash charges were offset by a $12 million credit related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense reversals for forfeited unvested awards, resulting in a net estimated total strategic workforce realignment pre-tax expense of approximately $17 million. Of the $17 million strategic workforce realignment pre-tax expense, $13 million was related to the U.S. segment and $4 million was related to the International segment. As of March 31, 2008, the remaining accrual related to the strategic workforce realignment was approximately $15 million, which the Company expects to be substantially paid by the end of the second quarter of 2008.
