NOTE 5: RESTRUCTURING COSTS

On July 26, 2012, we announced a corporate restructuring of our executive management team in support of our previously announced decision to close or sell several underperforming or non-core assets and in conjunction with the departure of our chief operating officer. Total costs of $1,080 associated with this restructuring plan were recognized in restructuring costs in fiscal year 2013.

On January 31, 2012, we completed the sale of Merfin Systems. In conjunction with this sale, four positions were eliminated from our nonwoven materials segment. In June 2011, we announced our decision to close the Delta plant at the end of calendar 2012. The plant ceased production in November 2012, and, as a result, $8,934 ($0.23 per diluted share) in total restructuring costs were recognized in fiscal year 2013, as we reduced the carrying value of related spare parts and inventory by $2,698, recognized $5,462 in severance and employee benefit costs and recognized $774 in other miscellaneous costs, primarily related to shutting down the facility.

Included in the severance and employee benefits costs recognized in restructuring expense in 2013 were approximately $3,950 ($0.10 per diluted share) related to retention bonus payments that should have been recognized ratably over the requisite service period and would have resulted in approximately $2,600 ($0.07 per diluted share) being recognized ratably during fiscal 2012 in restructuring expense and accrued reserves. After evaluating the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the out-of-period adjustment, we determined that our previously issued quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements were not materially misstated and that the out-of-period adjustment is immaterial to our estimated full year 2013 results and to our earnings trends.

Restructuring expenses are included in “Restructuring costs” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The charges below reflect severance and employee benefits accrued over the retention period, relocation expenses and other miscellaneous expenses. Accrual balances are included in “Accrued expenses” in the balance sheet. The following table summarizes the expenses and accrual balances by reporting segment for 2013.
