9. Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Culp International Holdings, Ltd. (Culp International), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, entered into a joint venture agreement, pursuant to which Culp International owns fifty percent of Class International Holdings, Ltd. (CLIH). CLIH produces cut and sewn mattress covers, and its operations are located in a modern industrial park in northeastern Haiti, which borders the Dominican Republic. CLIH commenced production in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and complements our mattress fabric operations with a mirrored platform that enhances our ability to meet customer demand while adding a lower cost operation to our platform.

CLIH reported net income totaling $26,000 for the three-month period ending August 4, 2019, and incurred a net loss totaling $154,000 for the three-month period ending July 29, 2018. Our equity interest in CLIH’s net income for the three-month period ending August 4, 2019, was $13,000, and our equity interest in CLIH’s net loss for the three-month period ending July 29, 2018, was $77,000.
