Supply Chain Modernization

In February 2019, we announced that we were assessing our supply chain in an effort to minimize out-of-stocks, optimize inventory levels, reduce cost and explore new replenishment and fulfillment options. As part of our supply chain modernization plans, we sold our secondary headquarters and fulfillment center in Denton, Texas, and anticipate closing select distribution centers and upgrading our e-commerce capabilities. Additionally, we will be opening up a new automated and concentrated distribution center which will service Sally Beauty Supply stores and e-commerce sales as well as Beauty Systems Group stores, full service sales and e-commerce sales.

The liability related to the Supply Chain Modernization, which is included in accrued liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, is as follows (in thousands):

Expenses incurred in the six months ended March 31, 2019, primarily represent costs incurred by SBS of $0.6 million.

The above table does not include a gain from selling our secondary headquarters and fulfillment center in Denton, TX of $6.6 million. In connection with the sale, we leased back the facility at current market rates for an insignificant time while we moved personnel to our primary headquarters.

2018 Restructuring Plan

In November 2017, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “2018 Restructuring Plan”) focused primarily on significantly improving the profitability of our international businesses, with particular focus on our European operations.

In April 2018, we announced an expansion of the 2018 Restructuring Plan that contained cost reduction initiatives designed to help fund important long-term growth initiatives. The expansion to the 2018 Restructuring Plan included headcount reductions primarily at our corporate headquarters in Denton, Texas. As of December 31, 2018, the 2018 Restructuring Plan was substantially complete and we do not anticipate any additional material costs for the 2018 Restructuring Plan.
