Our contract loss provision at both June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 includes approximately $0.4 million for estimated contract losses in connection with a certain customer purchase agreement. We filed a demand for arbitration under the contract to recover damages, together with attorney’s fees, interest and costs, subsequent to the customer’s request to reduce the number of units ordered under the purchase agreement. As a result of the customer filing for bankruptcy protection, our demand became an unsecured creditor claim within the customer’s overall bankruptcy proceedings. The customer has since emerged from bankruptcy protection, and it is more likely than not that we will not be able to recover the full amount of our claim. Accrued interest expense is for deferred interest costs in connection with our outstanding long-term debt.
