On December 29, 2017, GP Strategies Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K,” and, together with this amendment, the “Form 8-K”) reporting, among other things, that the Company announced a restructuring plan under which it would incur certain restructuring charges. This Form 8-K/A amends the Original Form 8-K to provide an estimate of additional charges which are expected to be incurred in the second quarter ending June 30, 2018 in connection with the restructuring plan.

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

In connection with the restructuring plan announced in December 2017, the Company incurred $3.3 million of restructuring charges in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017 and an additional $0.4 million of charges in the first quarter ended March 31, 2018, primarily consisting of severance expense. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company downsized its headquarters office from three floors to two floors, which will result in annual cost savings of approximately $600,000 per year for the remaining seven years under the lease, net of estimated sublease income. The Company also vacated certain other under-utilized field offices and incurred additional severance expense during the second quarter of 2018. The Company estimates that these actions will result in additional restructuring charges ranging from $1.8 million to $2.1 million in the second quarter ending June 30, 2018. The Company expects that its restructuring activities will be substantially complete by June 30, 2018.
