In July 2023, our wood furniture manufacturing operations located in Orleans, Vermont sustained damage from flooding of the nearby Barton River. In addition to losses related to wood furniture inventory parts and state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment, the flooding also resulted in a temporary work stoppage for many Vermont associates and a disruption and delay of shipments. Losses incurred from the disposal of damaged inventory, inoperable machinery equipment from water damage, facility cleanup, and restoration, was $2.3 million, net of insurance recoveries and grant proceeds. The remaining amount of repair and remediation costs to be paid as of December 31, 2023 is accrued for within Accounts payable and accrued expenses.
