INVENTORIES |
INVENTORIES | NOTE 4 — INVENTORIES The components of inventories as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are summarized as follows:
|  | June 30, |  | December 31, |
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |
Raw materials |  | $ | 28,837 |  | $ | 21,385 |
Work-in-process |  |  | 11,907 |  |  | 9,565 |
Finished goods |  |  | 5,993 |  |  | 6,769 |
|  |  | 46,737 |  |  | 37,719 |
Less: Reserve for excess and obsolete inventory |  |  | (3,585) |  |  | (2,798) |
Net inventories |  | $ | 43,152 |  | $ | 34,921 |
The significant increase in inventory is primarily attributable to the Towers and Weldments segment, where inventories have risen $8,485 since December 31, 2014. The sharp rise in raw materials reflects unusually high levels of steel plate at the Company’s Abilene, Texas tower plant, where production difficulties encountered in late 2014 and extending into early 2015 reduced the rate of material consumption; those difficulties have been resolved. The increase in the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory was caused by the decision to exit the market for servicing older-generation kilowatt and community wind turbines and consolidate the Company’s repair activities into a single facility within the Services segment.
