6. Restructuring and Related Charges
During the third quarter of 2008, we announced plans to improve our cost structure in response to current industry conditions. This plan consisted of the consolidation of certain manufacturing operations, elimination of certain positions and a voluntary early retirement incentive. Also included is a severance payment of $1.0 million due to the resignation of our former president and chief executive officer. A summary of our restructuring activities is as follows:
Restructuring Charges | Cash Payments | Restructuring Accrual September 27, 2008 | ||||||||||
Severance and other employee termination cost | $ | 1,714 | $ | 167 | $ | 1,547 |
In addition to the restructuring charges noted above, we recorded approximately $3.5 million in accelerated depreciation on the assets at our Lexington, North Carolina facility as well as equipment relocation cost for machinery moved from Lexington to other facilities.
7. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements and FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on results for the first nine months of 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all non-financial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, until January 1, 2009. We have not yet conclusively determined the impact that the implementation of SFAS No. 157 will have on our non-financial assets and liabilities; however we do not anticipate it to significantly impact our consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Historically low levels of consumer confidence and housing activity have led to an industry-wide weakness in consumer demand for residential furniture. This slowdown began in late 2005 and continues to intensify during 2008 as economic weakness and concerns now appear to be spreading to the broader U.S. economy.
In response to these deteriorating industry conditions we have reduced our headcount by approximately 40% since late 2005 and implemented various cost reduction initiatives as further discussed below. In 2005, we began reinvigorating our continuous improvement efforts using lean business principles to improve processes and efficiencies. While these renewed efforts have shown positive results, it has been difficult to demonstrate marked financial improvement due to declining sales and production levels.
In the fourth quarter of 2007, we began consolidating production from our Martinsville, Virginia facility into our Stanleytown, Virginia facility and converting the Martinsville facility into a warehouse. This improves our asset utilization and production efficiencies at the Stanleytown facility and lowers our costs by eliminating leased warehouse space. To date we have incurred pre-tax restructuring charges of $3.9 million ($3.6 million in 2007 and $266,000 in 2008), and expect to complete the conversion in the fourth quarter of 2008 with minimum additional cost.
In addition, we announced in the third quarter of 2008 several steps to further improve our cost structure in response to continued weakness in consumer demand. Those steps include consolidation of our North Carolina manufacturing operations from two facilities to one, elimination of certain positions and offering a voluntary early retirement incentive for qualified salaried associates. We expect the manufacturing consolidation to be completed by December 31, 2008. Once the transition is completed, we anticipate annual pre-tax savings of $5 million to $6 million from the manufacturing consolidation. We anticipate pre-tax restructuring and related charges to be in the range of $7 million to $9 million. This range includes $1 million for a severance payment due to the resignation of our former president and chief executive officer.
We will continue to evaluate our manufacturing capacity needs considering offshore sourcing opportunities, current and anticipated demand for our products, overall market conditions and other factors we consider relevant. Should further capacity reductions become necessary, this could cause other restructuring charges in the future. However, we remain committed to our blended strategy of combining our manufacturing capabilities with a sourcing program and do not anticipate any material change in those products we source versus those we produce in 2008. However, we are evaluating those products we source from others versus those we produce.

Net income (loss) | (6.4 | )% | 2.2 | % | (1.4 | )% | .4 | % |
Net sales decreased $18.7 million, or 25.6%, for the three month period ended September 27, 2008, from the comparable 2007 period. For the nine month period, net sales decreased $39.8 million, or 18.4% from the 2007 nine month period. This was primarily due to lower unit volume, resulting from continued weakness in demand, which we believe is due primarily to the current industry conditions. Partially offsetting this lower unit volume was an increase in average selling prices.
Gross profit margins for the three and nine month periods of 2008 were 9.2% and 14.6%, respectively, compared to 17.4% and 18.5%, for the comparable 2007 periods. Included in cost of sales for the three and nine month periods of 2008 is restructuring and related charges of $3.8 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The remaining decline in gross profit margins resulted primarily from lower sales and production levels, higher raw material cost and other inflationary cost increases. These factors were partially offset by higher average selling prices and cost reduction initiatives.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine month periods of 2008 as a percentage of net sales were 19.5% and 16.1%, respectively, compared to 13.1% and 13.9% for the comparable 2007 periods. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period increased $1 million from the comparable 2007 period primarily due to restructuring costs of $1.4 million. These expenses for the nine month period decreased $1.8 million primarily due to lower selling expenses resulting from decreased sales and cost reduction initiatives, offset by restructuring costs.
Final distribution of assets and termination of our defined benefit pension plan occurred during the second quarter of 2007. This resulted in a settlement charge to earnings of $6.6 million pre-tax, or $4.5 million, net of taxes.
As a result of the above, operating loss, as a percentage of net sales was 10.3% and 1.5% for the three and nine month periods of 2008 compared to operating income of 4.3% and 1.5%, for the comparable 2007 periods.
Interest expense and interest income for the nine month period of 2008 increased over the comparable prior year period primarily due to a $25 million private note placement funded in the second quarter of 2007.
The effective tax rate for 2008 is expected to be 46.2%, compared to 32.5% for total year 2007. The higher effective tax rate is due to the impact of permanent differences on lower projected earnings.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash from operations and amounts available under a $25.0 million credit facility. These sources have been adequate for day-to-day expenditures, debt payments, purchases of our stock, capital expenditures and payment of cash dividends to stockholders. We expect these sources of liquidity to continue to be adequate for the foreseeable future.
Working capital, excluding cash and current maturities of long-term debt, decreased $7.8 million during the first nine months of 2008 to $53.8 million from $61.6 million at year end. The decrease was primarily due to lower inventories.
Cash generated from operations was $9.6 million in the first nine months of 2008 compared to $3.4 million in the 2007 period. The increase was primarily due to lower inventory levels in response to lower sales.
Cash used by investing activities was $1.5 million in the 2008 period compared to $3.2 million in 2007 and consisted of normal capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for 2008 are anticipated to be approximately $2.0 million.
Cash used by financing activities was $3.0 million in the 2008 period compared to net cash provided of $8.8 million in the 2007 period. In the 2008 period, cash from operations provided funds for cash dividends and scheduled debt payments. In the 2007 period, a portion of the proceeds from our $25 million private note placement, cash on hand and cash from operations provided funds for the purchase and retirement of our common stock, payment of cash dividends and a scheduled debt payment. Approximately $19.0 million is currently authorized by our Board of Directors to repurchase shares of our common stock.
At September 27, 2008, long-term debt including current maturities was $29.3 million. Debt service requirements are $1.4 million in 2009 and 2010, $5.0 million in 2011, and $3.6 million in 2012. Our note agreements require us to maintain certain financial covenants, including a limit on total debt and a fixed charge coverage ratio. As a result of our current earnings level, we plan to seek amendments during the fourth quarter to certain covenants in our note agreements. Depending on the level of payments we receive in the fourth quarter under the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act, we may need these amendments in order to maintain compliance as of December 31, 2008. We anticipate we will be able to obtain these amendments. Our revolving credit facility contains similar covenants and we also plan to seek amendments to these covenants during the fourth quarter. As of September 27, 2008, approximately $25 million of additional borrowings were available under the revolving credit facility and cash on hand was $36.7 million.

Our revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate; therefore, changes in prevailing interest rates impact our borrowing costs. A one-percentage point fluctuation in market interest rates would not have a material impact on earnings during the first nine months of 2008.
None of our foreign sales or purchases are denominated in foreign currency and we do not have any foreign currency hedging transactions. While our foreign purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars, a relative decline in the value of the U.S. dollar could result in an increase in the cost of our component parts and finished items obtained from offshore sourcing and reduce our earnings, unless we are able to increase our prices for these items to reflect any such increased cost.
ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
(a) | Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. |
(b) | Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. |
