9. Other Operating Losses

 

Fiscal 2020

 

Asset Impairment Charges

 

During the three and six months ended May 30, 2020 we recorded $11,114 of non-cash impairment charges on the assets of five underperforming retail stores, including $6,239 for the impairment of operating lease right-of-use assets associated with the leased locations. Our estimates of the fair value of the impaired right-of-use assets included estimates of discounted cash flows based upon current market rents and other inputs which we consider to be Level 3 inputs as specified in the fair value hierarchy in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure (see Note 3).

 

During the three and six months ended May 30, 2020 we incurred $1,070 of non-cash impairment charges in our wholesale segment, primarily due to the closing of our custom upholstery manufacturing facility in Grand Prairie, Texas, in May.

 

Litigation Expense

 

During the three and six months ended May 30, 2020 we accrued an additional $1,050 for the estimated costs to resolve certain wage and hour violation claims that have been asserted against the Company and have received class action designation, bringing our total recorded reserve for these claims to $1,750 at May 30, 2020, which is included in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our accompanying balance sheet. While the ultimate cost of resolving these claims may be substantially higher, the amount accrued represents our estimate of the most likely outcome of a mediated settlement.

 

Fiscal 2019

 

Early Retirement Program

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we offered a voluntary early retirement package to certain eligible employees of the Company. These employees are to receive pay equal to one-half their current salary plus benefits over a period of one year from the final day of each individual’s active employment. Accordingly, we recognized a charge of $835 during the six months ended June 1, 2019. The unpaid balance of the obligation at May 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 of $35 and $374, respectively, is included in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
