This analysis resulted in the implementation of various short-term cost reductions and cash flow improvement actions including:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>Reducing executive and board member compensation;<\/li>\n<li>Decreasing operating expenses;<\/li>\n<li>Cutting talent expenses, third party staffing and consulting;<\/li>\n<li>Deferring spend on the build out of the Company\u2019s new headquarters for at least six months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Given the uncertainty of the situation, the Company also identified headcount reductions and made the decision to furlough a portion of its workforce effective immediately. The decision to furlough versus permanently reduce headcount reflects the fact that the Company currently believes the furlough will be temporary in nature.<\/p>\n<p>The Company\u2019s reductions of employee compensation and headcount result in an estimated monthly savings of\u00a0$4 million\u00a0along with cash flow improvement of\u00a0$140 million\u00a0primarily from the deferral in spending on the Company\u2019s new headquarters. Additionally, the Company has substantial financial resources, both available cash and debt capacity, which currently total approximately\u00a0$0.5 billion, to manage the challenges ahead. Management continues to believe the fundamentals of the Company\u2019s business remain strong and that WWE is well positioned to take full advantage of the changing media landscape and increasing value of live sports rights over the longer term.<\/p>\n<p>The Company will provide further details when it reports its first quarter 2020 results next Thursday, April 23 after the close of the market.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> My heart goes out to everyone in WWE (and elsewhere) who has been put on furlough. It&#8217;s an incredibly unfortunate situation, though WWE is far from alone in terms of taking this approach, which essentially means the workers are on unpaid leave and that the company intends to bring them back eventually. The reduction of talent expenses is an interesting line, as WWE has only announced the release of Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder in recent weeks. While they did not offer any specifics in the press release, it seems like it&#8217;s only a matter of time before some talents are let go.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-2874112920\"
