On September 3, 2019, the board of directors of CWH approved a plan to strategically shift its business away from locations where the Company does not have the ability or where it is not feasible to sell and/or service RVs at a sufficient capacity (the “Outdoor Lifestyle Locations”). Of the Outdoor Lifestyle Locations in the RV and Outdoor Retail segment operating at September 3, 2019, the Company has closed or divested 39 Outdoor Lifestyle Locations, three distribution centers, and 20 specialty retail locations relating to the 2019 Strategic Shift. One of the aforementioned closed distribution centers was reopened during the three months ended June 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had completed the store closures and divestitures relating to the 2019 Strategic Shift. As part of the 2019 Strategic Shift, the Company evaluated the impact on its supporting infrastructure and operations, which included rationalizing inventory levels and composition, closing certain distribution centers, and realigning other resources. The Company had a reduction of headcount and labor costs for those locations that were closed or divested, and the Company incurred material charges associated with the activities contemplated under the 2019 Strategic Shift.

The Company currently estimates the total restructuring costs associated with the 2019 Strategic Shift to be in the range of $92.6 million to $112.6 million. The breakdown of the estimated restructuring costs are as follows:

Through June 30, 2021, the Company has incurred $27.2 million of such other associated costs primarily representing labor, lease, and other operating expenses incurred during the post-close wind-down period for the locations related to the 2019 Strategic Shift. The additional amount of $3.8 million to $6.8 million represents similar costs that may be incurred in the year ending December 31, 2021 for locations that continue in a wind-down period, primarily comprised of lease costs accounted for under ASC 842, Leases, prior to lease termination. The Company intends to negotiate terminations of these leases where prudent and pursue sublease arrangements for the remaining leases. Lease costs may continue to be incurred after December 31, 2021 on these leases if the Company is unable to terminate the leases under acceptable terms or offset the lease costs through sublease arrangements. The foregoing lease termination cost estimate represents the expected cash payments to terminate certain leases, but does not include the gain or loss from derecognition of the related operating lease assets and liabilities, which is dependent on the particular leases that will be terminated.

The following table details the costs incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 associated with the 2019 Strategic Shift (in thousands):

Lease termination costs exclude the $1.3 million, $6.1 million and $0.2 million of gains from the derecognition of the operating lease assets and liabilities relating to the terminated leases as part of the 2019 Strategic Shift for the six months ended December 31, 2019, for the year ended December 31, 2020 and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

The Company evaluated the requirements of ASC No. 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations relative to the 2019 Strategic Shift and determined that discontinued operations treatment is not applicable. Accordingly, the results of operations of the locations impacted by the 2019 Strategic Shift are reported as part of continuing operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Long-lived Asset Impairment

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company had indicators of impairment of the long-lived assets for certain of its locations. For locations that failed the recoverability test based on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows, the Company estimated the fair value of the locations based on a discounted cash flow analysis. After performing the long-lived asset impairment test for these locations, the Company determined that certain locations within the RV and Outdoor Retail segment had long-lived assets that were impaired. The long-lived asset impairment charge, subject to limitations described below, was calculated as the amount that the carrying value of the locations exceeded the estimated fair value. The calculated long-lived asset impairment charge was allocated to each of the categories of long-lived assets at each location pro rata based on the long-lived assets’ carrying values, except that individual assets cannot be impaired below their individual fair values when that fair value can be determined without undue cost and effort. For most of these locations, the operating lease right-of-use assets and furniture and equipment were written down to their individual fair values and the remaining impairment charge was allocated to the remaining long-lived assets up to the fair value estimated on these assets based on liquidation value estimates.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, there were no indicators of impairment of long-lived assets and recorded no long-lived asset impairment charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded long-lived asset impairment charges relating to leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, and operating lease right-of-use assets of $2.4 million, $2.6 million, and $1.6 million, respectively. Of the $6.6 million long-lived asset impairment charge during the six months ended June 30, 2020, $6.5 million related to the 2019 Strategic Shift discussed above.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company had indicators of impairment of long-lived assets for certain operating lease right-of-use assets relating to the 2019 Strategic Shift that had been partially impaired in a previous period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an additional impairment charge of $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, on these operating lease right-of-use assets.
