Life insurer
Lincoln expects the cuts to result in after-tax charges of $55 million this year, but to result in $13 million savings in 2004 and $39 million in 2005.
Most of the layoffs will take place in the companys life and annuity divisions this year, a Lincoln spokeswoman told Reuters.
Lincoln has $92 billion in assets and took in $4.6 billion in revenue in 2002. It has committed $140 billion over the next 20 years for the right to call the new stadium for the Philadelphia Eagles Lincoln National Field. The stadium opened its doors for its first ticketed event this past Sunday, a soccer match between Manchester United and FC Barcelona.
