Asset Impairment Charges During fiscal 2025, we recognized a non-cash charge of $498 for the impairment of a right-of-use asset at one underperforming retail store that is expected to be closed in fiscal 2026. During fiscal 2024, we recognized non-cash charges for asset impairments totaling $5,515 which consisted of the following:
| ● | $2,887 in our retail segment which included $1,978 related to the impairment of leasehold improvements and $750 from the impairment of right-of-use assets at certain underperforming retail stores, as well as $159 for the impairment of right-of-use assets at certain warehouse locations resulting from the consolidation of our retail warehouses.
| ● | $727 for the impairment of plant and equipment in our wholesale segment related to the consolidation of our domestic wood production facilities.
| ● | $1,901 for the impairment of long-lived assets at Noa Home. During the second quarter we concluded that Noa Home was not likely to achieve profitability in the foreseeable future and decided to cease operations by selling the remaining inventory in an orderly fashion through the end of fiscal 2024. $1,827 of these charges are for the full impairment of the Noa Home trade name intangible asset, and $74 relates to the full impairment of customized software used in the Noa Home operations.
Our estimates of the fair value of the impaired right-of-use assets included estimates of discounted cash flows based upon current market rents and other inputs which we consider to be Level 3 inputs as specified in the fair value hierarchy in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. Loss on Contract Abandonment During fiscal 2024, we recognized a charge of $1,240 to accrue the remaining minimum charges payable under a contract for logistical services which our wholesale segment ceased utilizing during the third fiscal quarter of 2024. As of November 29, 2025, this liability has been settled with no remaining charges due. Loss Upon Realization of Cumulative Translation Adjustment In connection with the liquidation of the Noa Home business, we recognized a pre-tax charge of $962 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 for the realization of cumulative translation adjustments previously carried in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Restructuring Charges In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 we recognized a restructuring charge of $440 representing accrued severance pay for certain affected employees Of this charge, $190 was incurred by our retail segment, $83 by our wholesale segment, and $167 was charged to corporate and other. At November 30, 2024, $432 of the accrual remained in other current liabilities, all of which was paid out by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Goodwill Impairment Charge See Note 7 regarding the $5,409 non-cash charge during fiscal 2023 to impair goodwill associated with Noa Home. Gain on Revaluation of Contingent Consideration Per the terms of the agreement by which we acquired Noa Home during fiscal 2022, the Noa Home co-founders also had the opportunity to receive additional cash payments totaling approximately C$1,330 per year for the three fiscal years following the year of acquisition based on established increases in net revenues and achieving certain internal EBITDA goals. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the parties concluded that the targets originally set forth by which the Noa Home co-founders were to earn the contingent consideration would likely not be met within the initially anticipated time frame. Therefore, during fiscal 2022 we agreed to replace the contingent consideration with two fixed payments of C$200 each, the first of which was paid in June of 2023 with the second paid in December of 2024. As a result of the write-down of the contingent consideration payable that was recognized at the acquisition date, we recorded a gain of $1,013 during fiscal 2023.
