Wayfair Inc. ( W ) shares are trading lower on Friday. The furniture and home goods retailer has announced its decision to exit the German market immediately.

The move is expected to affect around 730 employees in Germany. While some of these positions will be relocated to other corporate offices, the company anticipates significant charges due to the restructuring.

The decision comes after evaluating the company’s performance and market conditions in Germany, where progress was slower than in other regions.

Wayfair’s efforts in Germany lagged due to challenges such as weak macroeconomic conditions, low brand awareness, and limited scale, which made achieving recovery in the country a costly endeavor.

To support affected employees, Wayfair ( W ) is providing a comprehensive support package, including severance and access to its employee assistance program.

The retailer is set to incur an estimated $102 million to $111 million in charges due its German exit. These charges include $40 million to $44 million in cash employee-related costs such as severance, benefits, and relocation expenses.

The company will face around $62 million to $67 million in non-cash charges, mainly tied to facility closures and other wind-down activities.

The company plans to reinvest the cost savings from the Germany Restructuring across its core initiatives and remaining international markets over the balance of 2025.

Wayfair ( W ) said it remains focused on its international markets in Canada, the UK, and Ireland, where it has a more established presence and sees substantial growth potential.

Price Action: W shares are trading lower by 1.15% at $44.81 at last check Friday.
