The chipmaker completed its $5.5 billion acquisition of network gear maker Brocade in November. Broadcom is further evaluating its resources and may terminate additional positions, it said in a regulatory filing.
Broadcom said it had incurred $143 million in restructuring charges, primarily employee termination costs, during the first two quarters of its fiscal 2018. The company is expected to pay a majority of its employee termination costs in the third quarter.
