Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring Activities | 10. RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES Mattress Fabrics Segment, Upholstery Fabrics Segment, and Unallocated Corporate - Initiated During Fiscal 2025 Restructuring Activities Announced May 1, 2024 On April 29, 2024 (first quarter of fiscal 2025), our board of directors made a decision to: (1) consolidate the company's North American mattress fabrics operations, including the closure and sale of the Property located in Quebec, Canada, (2) move a portion of the knitting and finishing capacity from that facility to the company's manufacturing facility located in Stokesdale, North Carolina; (3) transition the mattress fabrics segment's weaving operation to a strategic sourcing model through the company's long standing supply partners; (4) consolidate the company's sewn mattress cover operation located in Ouanaminthe, Haiti, from two leased facilities into one building and reduce other operating expenses at this location; as well as (5) reduce unallocated corporate and shared service expenses. All of the above restructuring activities related to this announcement have been completed, including the sale of the Property located in Quebec, Canada, effective April 30, 2025 (first quarter of fiscal 2026). Accordingly, we expect to record a gain from this sale totaling $4.0 million that will be recorded in restructuring expense (credit) in the consolidated statement of net income (loss) for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. See Note 8 located in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further details regarding the sale of the Property. During fiscal 2025, we incurred restructuring and restructuring related charges totaling $8.7 million related to the above mentioned initiatives, of which $8.5 million and $154,000 relate to the mattress fabrics and upholstery fabrics segments, respectively. As mentioned above, the restructuring activities related to this announcement were completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Accordingly, we expect to record a restructuring credit of $3.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, which reflects the gain on the sale of Property located in Quebec, Canada, partially offset by other expected restructuring expenses. Overall, we expect cumulative restructuring and restructuring related charges of approximately $4.9 million related to this initiative, most of which relates to the mattress fabrics segment. Restructuring Activities Announced April 24, 2025 On April 24, 2025 (fourth quarter of fiscal 2025), the company announced a strategic transformation of its operating model that will combine certain activities within the mattress fabrics and upholstery fabrics business segments and create an integrated Culp-branded business. As part of this strategic transformation, we will close our leased facility operated by our upholstery fabrics segment located in Burlington, North Carolina, and transition its production and distribution activities utilizing a shared management model within our owned facility located in Stokesdale, North Carolina. Our Stokesdale, North Carolina facility has historically been solely operated by our mattress fabrics segment. During fiscal 2025, we incurred restructuring expense of $676,000 related to this strategic transformation, of which $540,000 and $136,000 relate to unallocated corporate and the upholstery fabrics segment, respectively. The estimated cumulative restructuring and restructuring related charges for these initiatives is expected to be $1.5 million, of which $288,000 is expected to be cash expenditures. The $1.5 million of estimated cumulative restructuring and restructuring related charges associated with these activities represents: (i) a non-cash charge for impairment of Read's tradename totaling $540,000 (see Note 6 located in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further details); (ii) a non-cash charge of $425,000 associated with markdowns and other inventory related adjustments; (iii) non-cash lease termination costs of $224,000; (iv) cash charges for employee termination benefits of $173,000, and (v) cash charges for facility consolidation and relocation expenses of $115,000. We expect the initiatives associated with this strategic transformation to be substantially completed by December 31, 2025.

Upholstery Fabrics Segment - Restructuring Activities Initiated During Fiscal 2024 and 2023 Ouanaminthe, Haiti Cut and Sew Upholstery Fabrics Operation During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, CUF Haiti entered into an agreement to terminate a lease associated with one of its facilities and moved the production of upholstery cut and sewn kits to an existing facility leased by CHF Haiti during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Both CUF Haiti and CHF Haiti are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, demand for upholstery cut and sewn kits declined more than previously anticipated, resulting in the strategic action to discontinue the production of upholstery cut and sewn kits in Haiti. This restructuring activity commenced during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and was completed during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and resulted in a cumulative restructuring and restructuring related charge of $1.3 million. See Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements for further details regarding the agreement to terminate the above mentioned lease and the establishment of a note receivable. Shanghai, China Upholstery Fabrics Finishing Operation During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, we closed our upholstery fabrics finishing operation in China to align with current demand trends.

Cut and Sewn Upholstery Fabrics Operation During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we closed our cut and sewn upholstery fabrics operation, which included a termination of an agreement to lease a building. This strategic action was our response to declining consumer demand for cut and sew products, by adjusting our operating costs to better align with lower demand. This restructuring activity was completed during the third quarter of fiscal 2023, and resulted in a cumulative restructuring and restructuring related charge of $713,000 during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2023.
