Goshen Facility Closure
In November 2012, the Company announced plans to close its manufacturing facility in Goshen, Indiana, moving production from Goshen to lower-cost manufacturing facilities during 2013. The Company completed the move and ceased operations in Goshen during the fourth quarter of 2013. During 2013, the Company recorded charges, primarily for severance benefits for its approximately 350 union hourly workers to be involuntarily terminated, of approximately $4.0 million, of which approximately $3.8 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and is included in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. Additionally, during 2012, the Company recorded charges, primarily for severance benefits for salaried employees to be involuntarily terminated as part of the closure of approximately $1.2 million. Through March 31, 2014, the Company paid approximately $5.0 million of the total hourly and salaried severance benefits, with the remainder expected to be paid by mid-2014.
In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company incurred approximately $0.3 million of pre-tax non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation expense as a result of shortening the expected lives on certain machinery, equipment and leasehold improvement assets that the Company no longer utilizes following the facility closure.
