VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/08/10 -- Intrinsyc Software International, Inc. (TSX: ICS), a leading provider of software solutions for mobile devices, announces a restructuring plan to reduce its cost structure, and changes in its management, designed to improve operational efficiency and effectiveness. These actions are in response to challenges in the macroeconomic environment and competitive factors, and to ensure that Intrinsyc is positioned to benefit from an eventual economic rebound and market trends presenting near-term opportunities.
As a result of these initiatives, the Company expects to incur a one-time restructuring charge of approximately $500,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2010 attributable to employee severance and other costs. The staff reductions will include the departure of executives, David Manuel, Vice President and General Manager, Device Development Solutions, and Souheil Gallouzi, Vice President and General Manager, Mobile Product Development. Direct replacement for these positions will not be made. Rather, the respective organizations that previously reported to Mr. Manuel and Mr. Gallouzi will be restructured, with management reporting to the Chief Executive Officer.
"I want to thank Souheil and David for their contributions to Intrinsyc" said, Tracy Rees, Chief Executive Officer. "We are well positioned with a strong balance sheet, exceptionally talented engineering resources, and exciting new products launching in this quarter."
The Company expects to reduce its total annualized expenses by approximately $800,000 or 8%, as a result of these restructuring initiatives.
