In fiscal 2023, UNIFI recorded a recovery of income taxes in connection with filing amended tax returns in Brazil relating to certain income taxes paid in prior fiscal years, following favorable legal rulings in fiscal 2023.

During fiscal 2022, UNIFI established a grantor (or “rabbi”) trust to facilitate the payment of obligations under the Unifi, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “DCP”), which was also established in fiscal 2022. In addition to providing certain key employees with the ability to defer earned cash incentive compensation into the DCP, participants can generally choose the form and timing of deferred amounts. The DCP assumed the participants, obligations, and major terms of the Unifi, Inc. Supplemental Key Employee Retirement Plan (together with amendments, the “SERP”), an unfunded plan established in 2006 for purposes of generating supplemental retirement income for key employees of UNIFI. The amounts credited to participant accounts are reflected in SG&A expenses. The assets of the trust are subject to the claims of UNIFI’s creditors in the event of insolvency. Investments held for the DCP consist of mutual funds and are recorded based on market values. A change in the value of the trust assets would substantially be offset by a change in the liability to the participants, resulting in an immaterial net impact to the consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of the investment assets held by the trust were approximately $2,942 and $2,496 as of June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, respectively, and are classified as trading securities within Other non-current assets. Trading gains and losses associated with these investments are recorded to Other operating expense (income), net. The associated DCP liability is recorded within Other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities based on expected payment timing, and any increase or decrease in the liability is reflected as compensation in SG&A expenses. During fiscal 2024, 2023, and 2022, we recorded (gains)/losses on investments held by the trust of $(308), $(154), and $48, respectively.

In September 2000, UNIFI and Nilit Ltd. ("Nilit") formed a 50/50 joint venture, U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), for the purpose of operating nylon extrusion assets to manufacture nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNF were provided by Nilit under separate supply and services agreements. UNF’s fiscal year end was December 31 and it was a registered Israeli private company located in Migdal Ha-Emek, Israel.

In December 2023, UNIFI dissolved its interest in UNF under an agreement whereby UNIFI agreed to pay the former joint venture partner $2,750 and recorded it as an associated contract termination cost within Restructuring costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. UNIFI made a payment to the former joint venture partner of $1,200 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and the remaining $1,550 was paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Accordingly, the balance sheet information presented below as of June 30, 2024 does not include any amounts related to UNF.

In October 2009, UNIFI and Nilit America Inc. (“Nilit America”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, UNF America LLC (“UNFA”), for the purpose of operating a nylon extrusion facility which manufactures nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNFA are provided by Nilit America under separate supply and services agreements. UNFA’s fiscal year end is December 31 and it is a limited liability company located in Ridgeway, Virginia. UNFA is treated as a partnership for its income tax reporting.

In conjunction with the formation of UNFA, UNIFI entered into a supply agreement with UNF and UNFA (collectively, “UNFs”) whereby UNIFI agreed to purchase all of its first quality nylon POY requirements for texturing (subject to certain exceptions) from either UNF or UNFA. The agreement has no stated minimum purchase quantities, and pricing is negotiated every six months based on market rates. As of June 30, 2024, UNIFI’s open purchase orders related to this supply agreement, all with UNFA, were $1,309.

UNIFI’s raw material purchases under this supply agreement consist of the following:


	Fiscal 2024		Fiscal 2023		Fiscal 2022
UNFA	$	13,477	$	26,683	$	29,637
UNF		—		31		1,175
Total	$	13,477	$	26,714	$	30,812

As of June 30, 2024, UNIFI had accounts payable due to UNFA of $2,197, and, as of July 2, 2023, UNIFI had combined accounts payable due to UNF and UNFA of $3,440.

UNIFI has determined that UNF was, and UNFA is, a variable interest entity and has also determined that UNIFI has been the primary beneficiary of these entities, based on the terms of the supply agreement. As a result, these entities should be consolidated with UNIFI’s financial results. As (i) UNIFI purchases substantially all of the output and all intercompany sales would be eliminated in consolidation, (ii) the entity balance sheets constitute 5% or less of UNIFI’s current assets and total assets, and (iii) such balances are not expected to comprise a larger portion in the future, UNIFI has not included the accounts of UNF and UNFA in its consolidated financial statements and instead is accounting for these entities as equity investments. As of June 30, 2024, UNIFI’s investment in UNFA was $1,603, and on July 2, 2023, UNIFI’s combined investments in UNF and UNFA was $2,997. The financial results of UNF and UNFA are included in UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements with a one-month lag, using the equity method of accounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance with UNIFI’s accounting policy. Other than the supply agreement discussed above, UNIFI does not provide any other commitments or guarantees related to UNFA.
