RE-BRKS will be taking a restructuring charge. Maybe a chance to break up the company and sell the biggest part. Perhaps to concentrate on the life science division with any sale proceeds?

>Schwartz continued, “To be clear, the restructuring announced today is not related to anything we are seeing in the macro-economic environment. We continue to feel optimistic about the overall Semiconductor and Life Sciences markets and our leading positions within each. This is the next step in our strategic intent to strengthen both segments and to reduce cost.”
