Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. On October 23, 2024, the Company announced a restructuring plan, or the Plan, intended to continue the Company’s profitable trajectory, increase efficiency, and accelerate innovation for its customers.

In connection with these actions, the Company estimates that it will incur approximately $17 million to $22 million in pre-tax charges to its GAAP financial results, consisting primarily of severance and other one-time termination benefits for the Company’s impacted workforce. The Company expects most of these charges to be cash expenditures and to recognize substantially all of these charges in the fourth quarter of 2024. The estimates of the expenses that the Company expects to incur in connection with the Plan, and the timing thereof, are subject to a number of assumptions, including local law requirements in various jurisdictions, and actual amounts may differ materially from estimates. In addition, the Company may incur other charges not currently contemplated due to unanticipated events that may occur, including in connection with the implementation of the Plan.

About Upwork Inc. (UPWK) Earnings

This page provides Upwork Inc. (UPWK) earnings call transcripts from SEC 8-K filings along with AI-powered predictions for post-earnings price movements. Our machine learning models analyze historical earnings data, pre-earnings price patterns, volume changes, and volatility to predict 1-day, 5-day, and 20-day returns after each earnings release.

Earnings transcripts are sourced directly from SEC EDGAR filings. Predictions are generated using gradient boosting models trained on UPWK's historical earnings reactions. All predicted returns are shown as percentages, and predicted prices are calculated from the closing price at the time of prediction. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
