On September 10, 2020, the Company announced its plan to permanently close its Shoals Facility in light of the ongoing cyclical industry downturn, which has been magnified by the COVID-19 pandemic. On October 8, 2020, the Company reached an agreement with the Shoals facility owner and landlord, to shorten the Shoals lease term by amending the expiration date to the end of February 2021. In addition, the landlord agreed to waive the base rent payable under the original lease for the months of October 2020 through February 2021. Property, plant and equipment with an estimated fair value of $10,148 was sold or transferred to the Shoals landlord during the three months ended March 31, 2021 as consideration for the landlord’s entry into the lease amendment and the aforementioned rent waiver. Restructuring and impairment charges related to the plant closure for the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily represented costs related to relocating some of the facility’s equipment to Castaños.

On July 22, 2019, the Company announced its intention to close its Roanoke, Virginia manufacturing facility as part of its “Back to Basics” strategy. The Company ceased operations at the facility as of November 29, 2019 and terminated its leases for the facility effective as of March 31, 2020. Restructuring and impairment charges related to the plant closure for the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily represented impairment charges for property, plant and equipment and costs related to relocating some of the facility’s equipment to other manufacturing locations.

Restructuring and impairment charges are reported as a separate line item on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and are detailed below:
