Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On October 31, 2014, we implemented a reduction of our workforce to reduce our fixed costs. The reduction includes development and game-testing, selling and marketing, and support personnel. We are currently not developing any significant new games for release in fiscal 2015. We expect to incur charges of approximately $0.3 million to $0.4 million through December 31, 2014 relating to this reduction in force, consisting primarily of one-time severance payments and other termination benefits.
As discussed in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 31, 2014, we have suffered losses that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, we are evaluating various alternatives, including reducing operating expenses and personnel costs, securing additional financing for future business activities, and other strategic alternatives including a sale or merger of our company.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
