At May 4, 2014, construction-in-progress consisted of $1.7 million of expenditures related to our ongoing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) conversion efforts and $1.7 million related to various other projects to enhance our facilities and operations.

The $2.4 million change in the buildings and land improvements during the fiscal 2015 first quarter is primarily due to the completion of the previously announced sale of our Cloverleaf warehouse facility in April 2014. We recognized a gain of $34,000 on the sale in our fiscal 2015 financial statements. See Item 2 of this report, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, for additional information on this transaction.
