– RESTRUCTURING COSTS

September

22,

2016,

the Company announced plans to close its lighting facility in Kansas City, Kansas. The decision was based upon the market shift away from fluorescent and other technologies and the rapid movement to LED lighting which is produced at other LSI facilities. The Company expects to continue to meet the demand for products containing fluorescent light sources as long as these products are commercially viable. All operations at the Kansas City facility ceased prior to

December

31,

2016.

Total restructuring costs related to the closure of the Kansas City facility were

$944,000.

These costs primarily included employee-related costs (primarily severance), the impairment of manufacturing equipment, plant shut down costs

, costs related to the preparation of the facility for sale, legal costs, and other related costs. In addition, there was also an inventory write-down of

$432

,000

recorded in the

first

nine

months of fiscal

2017.

The write-down was related to inventory that was previously realizable until the decision in the

first

quarter of fiscal

2017

to shut down the Kanas City plant due to the planned curtailment of the manufacturing of fluorescent light fixtures. The Company owned the facility in Kansas City and realized a

$1,361,000

gain when the facility was sold.

The Company also announced the consolidation of the Beaverton, Oregon facility into other LSI facilities. The light assembly of products in the Beaverton facility was moved to the Company’s Columbus, Ohio facility, and administration and engineering functions were moved to the Company’s Cincinnati, Ohio facility. This consolidation was completed

September

As a result of this consolidation, restructuring charges of

$363,000

were recorded in the

first

nine

months of fiscal

2017,

with the majority of this representing the costs related to the remaining period of the facility’s lease and severance costs for employees who formerly worked in the Beaverton facility.

November

2016,

the Company announced the consolidation of the Woonsocket, Rhode Island manufacturing operation into its North Canton, Ohio operation. The manufacturing operations in Woonsocket ceased prior to

December

2016.

The Company owns the facility in Woonsocket and expects to realize a gain when the facility is sold

. The facility is presented on the balance sheet as an asset held for sale. Total restructuring costs related to the consolidation of the Woonsocket facility are expected to be approximately

$464,000.

These costs primarily include employee-related costs (severance), plant shut down costs, costs related to the preparation of the facility for sale, legal costs, and other related costs.

related to machinery and equipment at the Kansas City and Beaverton facilities. There was no impairment expense related to the closure of the Woonsocket facility. Of the

$354,000

of impairment and accelerated depreciation expense,

$322,000

was recorded in the Lighting Segment and
