ELKHART, Ind., Oct 08, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- CTS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- CTS Corporation (NYSE: CTS | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today announced that it will recognize a non-cash tax benefit of approximately $3.8 to $4.2 million, or $0.10 to $0.11 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2008. This tax benefit results from the release of a valuation allowance due to sustained profitability of one of its Asian locations.

Independent of the above item, CTS also initiated certain restructuring actions to transfer and consolidate certain operations to further improve its cost structure. The restructuring and related actions will result in a pretax charge of approximately $4.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share. The charge relates primarily to the elimination of approximately 60 positions and writing off certain leasehold improvements. Third quarter 2008 costs for these actions are approximately $3.5 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, with the remainder to be recorded in the fourth quarter.
