Note 15. Related Party Transactions

During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and July 29, 2017, the Company reimbursed expenses of its primary equity holder in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. During the nine months ended July 31, 2018, and July 29, 2017, the Company reimbursed expenses in the amount of $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Certain production facilities and offices for two of the Company’s subsidiaries are leased from related parties owned by certain members of management. Rent expense under these arrangements totaled $0.4 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 2018, and July 29, 2017, respectively. Rent expense under these arrangements totaled $1.0 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2018 and July 29, 2017, respectively.

The Company engaged with an information technology, software and consulting company (the “IT Consulting Company”) in which the Company’s CEO had a material equity interest. The IT Consulting Company provided software development and installation to the Company. The Company made payments of $1.3 million and $2.7 million during the three and nine months ended July 29, 2017, respectively, to the IT Consulting Company. The amounts paid to the IT Consulting Company included payments which are made to another unrelated consulting company. Excluding the payments to this unrelated consulting company, the payments made to the IT Consulting Company were $0.5 million and $1.1 million during the three and nine months ended July 29, 2017, respectively. On October 27, 2017 the IT Consulting Company was sold to an unrelated third party and therefore any future consulting business that the Company has undertaken or will undertake with the IT Consulting Company after such date will not be considered a related party transaction.
