Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On January 22, 2016, Albany International
France S.A.S., a subsidiary of Albany International Corp. (the “Company”) initiated discussions with the employee Works
Council regarding a proposal to cease R&D activities at the Company’s production facility in Sélestat, France.
At the time of the initial report, the Company was unable to reasonably estimate the costs that it would expect to incur in connection
with the proposed action.
In May 2016, the Company concluded
negotiations with the Works Council on the terms of a social plan that sets forth the severance and other benefits to be provided
to affected employees. The Company currently expects to record a restructuring charge of approximately $2.2 million in the second
quarter of 2016, principally related to future cash expenditures for severance, social costs and outplacement programs for affected
employees. The charge also includes $0.3 million for the write-off of equipment that will no longer be used. The Company
anticipates it will record a pension curtailment gain of approximately $0.2 million in the third or fourth quarter of the year.
Signature
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
