United Stationers Inc. (USTR) said it will eliminate about 150 positions through early retirement and work force realignment programs in an effort to control costs.

The business product distributor, which employs about 5,700 people, plans to finish the realignment by the second quarter and sees annual savings of $4 million to $5 million beginning in the second half.

The company expects severance and other charges of $9 million to $10 million before taxes during the fourth quarter.

United Stationers also expects the move to take about $12 million off its vacation pay liability in the fourth quarter, to be recorded as an offset to operating expenses.

Despite an increase in third-quarter earnings, the company said last month that operating expenses were up and it was looking to tightly manage costs. Chief Executive Richard W. Gochnauer also said last month he would retire in May.

Shares were down 32 cents in recent trading to $64.47 and are up 6.6% in the past 12 months.
