Item 2.05. Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities.
On May 3, 2005, in order to further increase operational efficiency, the Board of Directors of DDi Corp. (the “Company”) approved plans to close the Company’s Arizona facility, which has produced mass lamination cores for four of the Company’s North American PCB plants, and to shift this work back into other facilities. The Company’s Virginia facility will assume the majority of the internal mass lamination work previously manufactured by the Arizona facility. This change is expected to shorten turn-around time and reduce inter-facility transfer time and costs.
The Arizona facility currently employs approximately 80 employees in three leased buildings. The Company announced the exit plan to the affected workforce on May 5, 2005, intends to turn its focus toward winding up manufacturing activity, and expects to complete exiting the premises before the end of the lease term (two buildings have a lease expiration date of December 31, 2005 and the third, February 28, 2006).
The Company believes that the following types of restructuring costs will likely be incurred in connection with the closure of its Arizona facility: termination benefits; property restoration; rent; utilities, tax and miscellaneous charges; fixed asset write-offs; and inventory write-offs. However, the Company is unable at this time in good faith to make a determination of the total amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred with respect to each of these types of costs. The Company will file an amended report on Form 8-K within four business days of making a determination of these estimates.
The Company estimates that the range of total cash and non-cash charges relating to the exit activity will be $3.0 to $4.5 million. The Company estimates that the range of cash charges related to exit activity will be approximately $1.5 to $2.5 million. These restructuring charges are expected to be accounted for during the second quarter of 2005.
The Company is in the process of determining whether assets of the Arizona facility are impaired in value by this action and if there are impaired assets, the associated impairment charge to be recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” If the Company concludes that a material charge for impairment is required under generally accepted accounting principles, the Company will disclose such fact in another report on Form 8-K or in another periodic report, as required.
