(Reuters) – Ford Motor Co expects to take up restructuring charges between $1.5\u00a0billion and $2\u00a0billion in 2023, it said in a regulatory filing on Wednesday, as part of the U.S. automaker’s move to exit unprofitable locations and cut headcount.<\/p>\n

The charges will be primarily attributable to “employee separations and supplier settlements,” the automaker said, adding additional restructuring actions may be taken “where a path to sustained profitability is not feasible when considering the capital allocation required for those businesses.”<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Ford said it plans to cut one in nine jobs in Europe, as part of a drive to lower costs in the region and concentrate engineering know-how in the United States.<\/p>\n

It has also been curbing operations in countries such as Brazil and India, as it pours billions into developing electric vehicles.<\/p>\n

The disclosure comes a day after the company posted robust quarterly results but issued a measured full-year outlook, weighed down by continued losses in its electric-vehicle unit.<\/p>\n
