Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]  
Restructuring Charges Restructuring ChargesThe COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the global economy, and particularly the aerospace industry, resulting in reduced expectations of the Company’s anticipated future operating results. As a result, the Company executed restructuring activities in the form of workforce reduction, primarily in the second quarter of 2020, to align capacity with expected demand.
In the fourth quarter of 2019, in an effort to reduce the significant operating losses at our AeroSat business, the Company initiated a restructuring plan to reduce costs and minimize losses of our AeroSat antenna business. There were $0.2 million in additional restructuring charges associated with this initiative recorded in the three and six months ended July 3, 2021. The Company incurred $0.3 million in additional restructuring charges associated with severance at AeroSat during the six months ended June 27, 2020.
The following tables reconcile the beginning and ending liability for restructuring charges:
2021
Balance as of January 1 $ 5,631 
Restructuring Charges 221 
Cash Paid (1,559)
Balance as of July 3 $ 4,293 
The liability is within Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities and is comprised of employee termination benefits expected to be paid within the next 12 months as well as payments to be made under AeroSat’s non-cancelable inventory purchase commitments. The non-cancelable purchase commitments are for inventory in the future which is not expected to be purchased prior to the expiration date of such agreements as a result of the restructuring plan.
