– RESTRUCTURING COSTS
 
In fiscal
2019,
the Company closed its
12,000
square foot leased facility in Hawthorne, California. The facility was used as a warehouse and for light assembly of light fixtures. The Company moved the light assembly to its Cincinnati, Ohio facility. The restructuring charges consist primarily of transportation costs to move inventory to Cincinnati, the impairment of equipment, costs to restore the leased facility, and severance benefits. As of
June 30, 2019,
the Company incurred restructuring costs of
$0.1
million related to the closure of the Hawthorne facility. The Company also incurred
$0.1
million of expense to write-down inventory which is a re-valuation of the previous estimate and which is
not
included in the tables below.
 
Also occurring in fiscal
2019,
the Company announced plans to close its lighting manufacturing facility in New Windsor, New York. The closure was part of ongoing actions to align the Company's supply chain to more cost effectively serve the changing requirements of the lighting market. The Company moved production to its other existing facilities in the
second
half of fiscal
2019.
The closure allowed the Company to improve utilization of existing manufacturing capacity and will generate annual savings of approximately
$4.0
million. The sale of the facility is listed as an asset held for sale as of
June 30, 2019.
As of
June 30, 2019,
the Company incurred restructuring costs of
$1.7
million related to the closure of the New Windsor facility. The Company also incurred
$1.1
million of expense in fiscal
2019
to write-down inventory which is
not
included in the tables below.
 
The sale of the New Windsor facility occurred during the
first
quarter of fiscal
2020.
The net proceeds were
$12.3
million resulting in a gain of
$4.8
million. In addition, in the
third
quarter of fiscal
2020,
the Company sold its North Canton, Ohio facility. The net proceeds were
$7.7
million resulting in a net gain of
$3.7
million. The Company relocated the production at the North Canton facility to smaller, leased facility in Akron, Ohio during the
fourth
quarter of fiscal
2020.
The Company also incurred
$0.6
million of expense to write-down inventory which is
not
includes in the tables below. Other restructuring costs incurred in
2020
relate to the realignment of the Company's manufacturing footprint at its Houston, Texas facility. The realignment occurred as the result of the movement of equipment related to the closure of the New Windsor facility along with preparations to receive additional equipment resulting from the relocation of the North Canton facility.
