Note 2: Restructuring

 

During fiscal 2014, we committed to a restructuring of our casegoods business to transition to an all-import model for our wood furniture. We ceased casegoods manufacturing operations at our Hudson, North Carolina facility during the second quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result of this restructuring, we transitioned our remaining Kincaid and American Drew bedroom product lines to imported product and exited the hospitality business as we manufactured those products in our Hudson facility. We also transitioned our warehouse and repair functions from two North Wilkesboro, North Carolina facilities to our Hudson plant. In addition, we sold both of the North Wilkesboro facilities and most of the wood-working equipment from our Hudson plant and completed the consolidation of our casegoods showroom during fiscal 2015.

 

We have recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $7.9 million ($5.0 million after tax) since the inception of this restructuring plan, with $4.7 million pre-tax ($2.9 million after tax) related to continuing operations and $3.2 million pre-tax ($2.1 million after tax) related to discontinued operations. These charges relate to severance and benefit-related costs and various asset write-downs, including fixed assets, inventory and trade names.

 

During the quarter ended July 25, 2015, we recorded pre-tax restructuring expense of $0.2 million ($0.1 million after tax) compared with pre-tax restructuring income of $0.4 million ($0.2 million after tax) recorded during the quarter ended July 26, 2014. The pre-tax restructuring expense we recorded in fiscal 2016 mainly resulted from rent for an idled showroom and severance and benefit related costs, while the pre-tax restructuring income we recorded in fiscal 2015 mainly related to inventory recoveries. We recorded the restructuring expense from continuing operations in fiscal 2016 as a component of selling, general and administrative expense and recorded the restructuring income from continuing operations in fiscal 2015 as a component of cost of sales. We included restructuring expenses related to discontinued operations in income/(loss) from discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of income.

 

We had $0.5 million of restructuring liability remaining as of July 25, 2015, primarily related to severance, which we expect to be settled by the end of fiscal 2016.
