22. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The company is involved in legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management has determined that it is not reasonably possible that these actions, when ultimately concluded and settled, will have a material adverse effect upon the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the company.

Accounts Payable – Capital Expenditures

At January 27, 2019, we had total amounts due regarding capital expenditures totaling $91,000, which pertained to outstanding vendor invoices, none of which were financed. The total outstanding amount of $91,000 is required to be paid based on normal credit terms.

At January 28, 2018, and April 29, 2018, we had total amounts due regarding capital expenditures totaling $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of which $1.4 million was financed and pertained to completed work for the construction of a new building (see below).

Purchase Commitments – Capital Expenditures

 

At January 27, 2019, we had open purchase commitments to acquire equipment for our mattress fabrics segment totaling $632,000.

Mattress Fabrics Building

Effective May 16, 2016, we entered into an agreement with a contractor to construct a new building located in North Carolina to expand our distribution capabilities and office space at a cost of $11.3 million. This agreement required an installment payment of $1.9 million that was made in April 2016, with additional installment payments of $4.3 million that were made in fiscal 2017, $3.7 million that were made in fiscal 2018, and a final installment payment of $1.4 million made in May 2018 (first quarter of fiscal 2019). Interest was charged on the required outstanding installment payments for services that were previously rendered at a rate of $2.25% plus the current 30-day LIBOR rate.

Also, we were required to issue a letter of a credit totaling $5.0 million with the contractor’s bank being the beneficiary. In addition to the interest charged on the outstanding installment payments noted above, there was a 0.1% unused fee calculated on the balance of the $5.0 million letter of credit less the amount outstanding per month (see Note 13 for further details).

This new building was placed into service in July 2017 (first quarter of fiscal 2018).
