Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
OnJanuary 25, 2023 , the Board of Directors ofGroupon, Inc. (the "Company") approved the second phase of the Company's multi-phase restructuring plan (the "2022 Restructuring Plan"), which is part of the Company's comprehensive cost savings plan, announced inAugust 2022 (the "2022 Cost Savings Plan"). This second phase is expected to include an overall reduction of approximately 500 positions globally, with the majority of these reductions expected to occur by the end of the second quarter of 2023. In connection with the 2022 Restructuring Plan, the Company has incurred total pretax charges of approximately$9.6 million since the inception of the 2022 Restructuring Plan throughDecember 31, 2022 . In connection with the actions under the second phase, the Company expects to record total pre-tax charges of between$10.0 million and$20.0 million . The majority of these pre-tax charges are expected to be paid in cash and will primarily relate to employee severance and compensation benefits, with an immaterial amount of charges related to other exit costs. The payroll actions under the second phase of the 2022 Restructuring Plan are estimated to result in approximately$70.0 million in annualized cost savings. The Company also intends to implement other non-payroll actions outlined within the 2022 Cost Savings Plan, including reducing technology, software and certain professional services costs. These actions are expected to create an additional$30.0 million in annualized cost savings. The total pretax charges incurred since the inception of the 2022 Restructuring Plan are preliminary and subject to the completion of year-end financial reporting processes and review. The estimated charges that the Company expects to incur are subject to a number of assumptions, and actual results may differ materially from these estimates. The Company intends to exclude the restructuring charges from its non-GAAP financial metrics, including Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS.
