Highlight of Business Operations:
As a result of challenging market conditions and the Corporation's ongoing business simplification and cost reduction strategies, management made the decision in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 to close an office furniture manufacturing facility located in Salisbury, North Carolina and consolidate production into existing office furniture manufacturing facilities. In connection with the closure of the Salisbury location and other office furniture plant closures announced in 2009, the Corporation recorded $2.1 million of charges during the quarter ended July 3, 2010 which included $0.9 million of accelerated depreciation recorded in cost of sales and $1.2 million of other costs which were recorded as restructuring costs. The Corporation had previously recorded $1.3 million of severance costs for approximately 125 members during the first quarter in connection with the closure of the Salisbury facility. The closure and consolidation of the Salisbury facility is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2010. The Corporation anticipates additional restructuring and transition costs of approximately $2.6 million related to the various closures over the remainder of 2010.For the first six months of 2010, consolidated net sales decreased $9.9 million, or 1.3 percent, to $761.7 million compared to $771.6 million in 2009.
