Note 2: Restructuring

 

During fiscal 2014, we committed to a restructuring of our casegoods business to transition to an all-import model for our wood furniture. We ceased casegoods manufacturing operations at our Hudson, North Carolina facility during the second quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result of this restructuring, we transitioned our remaining Kincaid and American Drew bedroom product lines to imported product and exited the hospitality business as we manufactured those products in our Hudson facility. We are transitioning our warehouse and repair functions from two North Wilkesboro, North Carolina facilities to Hudson. We sold one of the two North Wilkesboro facilities during the second quarter of fiscal 2015 and are currently marketing the second facility for sale. In addition, we sold most of the wood-working equipment from our Hudson plant during the first six months of fiscal 2015.

 

We have recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $7.7 million ($5.0 million after tax) since the inception of this restructuring plan, with $4.5 million pre-tax ($2.9 million after tax) related to continuing operations and $3.2 million pre-tax ($2.1 million after tax) related to discontinued operations. These charges relate to severance and benefit-related costs and various asset write-downs, including fixed assets, inventory and tradenames. During the quarter and six months ended October 25, 2014, we recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of less than $0.1 million before and after tax and restructuring income of $0.3 million ($0.2 million after tax), respectively, mainly related to inventory recoveries net of severance and benefit related costs.

 

We had a remaining restructuring liability of $0.4 million as of October 25, 2014, which we expect to be settled by the end of fiscal 2015. We included restructuring charges related to discontinued operations in our income from discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of income.
