The Company approved a restructuring program in fiscal 2022 (the “2022 Program”), to improve business performance, increase collaboration, enhance team member agility, enable faster decision-making and reduce redundancies. In conjunction with the 2022 Program, the Company relocated all its corporate team members from its former Chicago, Downers Grove and Dakota Dunes area corporate locations to its world headquarters in Springdale, Arkansas. The 2022 Program and associated expenses were substantially completed in our fiscal 2024. The following table reflects the total pretax expenses associated with the 2022 Program (in millions):

During fiscal 2023, as part of a strategic review of assets, the Company approved the closure of six Chicken segment processing facilities located in Glen Allen, Virginia; Van Buren, Arkansas; Corydon, Indiana; Dexter, Missouri; Noel, Missouri; and North Little Rock, Arkansas, to optimize asset utilization. During fiscal 2024, to optimize asset utilization, the Company approved the closure of two case ready value-added plants in our Beef segment located in Columbia, South Carolina and Jacksonville, Florida, and a Pork segment processing facility in Perry, Iowa. We have ceased operations and shifted production to other facilities at all closed facilities. Additionally, during fiscal 2024, the Company sold a Chicken segment processing facility located in Vienna, Georgia.

During fiscal 2024, as a result of the plant closures and disposals, we recorded $198 million of charges in fiscal 2024 and $322 million of charges in fiscal 2023, primarily related to grower contract terminations, accelerated depreciation, severance, retention and related costs, and recorded a gain of $16 million related to the sale of the Vienna, Georgia facility. Additionally, during fiscal 2023, we recorded an impairment charge of $17 million related to the discontinuation of a product line in the Prepared Foods segment. The charges are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income in Cost of Sales. Included in the results for fiscal 2024 are $24 million of charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows and $174 million in non-cash charges. Included in the results for fiscal 2023 are $201 million of charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows and $138 million of non-cash charges.


	Balance at September 30, 2023		Plant Closure Charges		Payments		Balance at September 28, 2024
Contract termination	$	151	$	23	$	(76)	$	98
Severance and retention	14		11		(20)		5
Total	$	165	$	34	$	(96)	$	103

During fiscal 2024, we experienced a fire at a production facility in the Netherlands which is included in International/Other for segment presentation, and subsequently approved the sale of the facility. For fiscal 2024, charges related to the fire and decision to sell the facility, totaled $86 million, primarily related to property, plant and equipment impairments, severance costs, inventory write-offs and clean-up costs, partially offset by insurance proceeds. The net charges are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income in Cost of Sales and, for fiscal 2024, included $31 million of charges that have resulted or will result in cash outflows and $64 million of non-cash charges, offset by $9 million of insurance proceeds.

We continue to strategically evaluate optimization of such items as network capacity, manufacturing efficiencies and business technology. If we have a significant change in strategies, outlook, or a manner in which we plan to use these assets, we may experience future charges.
