We periodically evaluate the profitability of our various offerings. Should the actual or expected profitability fall below an acceptable threshold, we may decide to stop offering a product, in part to reallocate manufacturing, operations, engineering, sales and support resources to products we expect will generate greater returns. During 2014, our evaluation led us to selectively exit product offerings we believe will continue to lag our overall profitability goals. This resulted in an inventory write-off of $7.9 million. We believe for many of these products, market dynamics dictate price is the primary differentiator rather than our value-added core competencies of power, reliability, security and performance.
