The company said in a filing it expected to incur about $15 million in costs related to the measures, with substantially all of the charges to be taken in the second quarter.

The Times, facing diminishing revenue from print advertising, has been trying to popularize its digital content globally by investing in marketing and taking steps such as allowing subscribers to pay in local currencies.
