NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial statements which do not include all the information and notes required by such accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (generally consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying financial statements. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2018 year.
Based on applicable accounting standards, the Company has determined that it has one reportable segment, Floorcovering comprised of two operating segments, Residential and Commercial. Pursuant to applicable accounting standards, the Company has aggregated the two operating segments into one reporting segment because they have similar economic characteristics, and the operating segments are similar in all of the following areas: (a) the nature of the products and services; (b) the nature of the production processes; (c) the type or class of customer for their products and services; (d) the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and (e) the nature of the regulatory environment.
NOTE 2 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Accounting Standard Adopted in Fiscal 2018
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
". The ASU requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU and all subsequently issued clarifying ASUs replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The ASU was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The ASU also required expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required for customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments. The Company adopted the new standard effective December 31, 2017, the first day of the Company's fiscal year, using the full retrospective method approach and expanded its financial statement disclosures in order to comply with the ASU. (See Note 3.) The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The majority of the Company's revenue arrangements generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods or services. Based on the Company's evaluation process and review of its contracts with customers, the timing (point in time) and amount of revenue recognized previously is consistent with how revenue is recognized under the new standard.
Therefore, no changes were required to its reported revenues as a result of the adoption. However, the adoption resulted in the recognition of an asset related to certain product returns by increasing the returns liability for December 30, 2017 and recognizing a corresponding asset for the estimated value of the returns from customers; this gross up had no corresponding impact on the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 30, 2017 has been adjusted to reflect retrospective application of the new accounting standard as follows:

As part of the adoption of the ASU, the Company elected to use the following practical expedients (i) to exclude disclosures of transaction prices allocated to remaining performance obligations when the Company expects to recognize such revenue for all periods prior to the date of initial application of the ASU; (ii) not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the Company's transfer

(amounts in thousands, except per share data) (Continued)
of a promised product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less; (iii) to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period would have been one year or less; (iv) not to recast revenues for contracts that begin and end in the same fiscal year; and (v) not to assess whether promised goods or services are performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer. The Company's revenue is recognized at a point in time based on the transfer of control whereby the Company does not invest in contract costs that are recoverable. In addition, performance obligations and customer payments are within one year or less. For these reasons, there is not a significant impact as a result of electing these practical expedients.
Accounting Standards Yet to Be Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "
Leases (Topic 842),"
which requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The standard requires the use of a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its financial statements. The Company has developed a project team relative to the process of adopting this ASU and is currently completing a detailed review of the Company’s leasing arrangements, which consist primarily of building and equipment leases, to determine the impact.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,"
which amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the current incurred loss methodology, which will result in the more timely recognition of losses. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on the financial statements due to the nature of the Company's customers and the limited amount of write-offs in past years.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, "
Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.
" The amendments in this ASU update current guidance by more closely aligning the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with risk management activities through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on the financial statements.
NOTE 3 - REVENUE
Revenue Recognition Policy
The Company derives its revenues primarily from the sale of floorcovering products and processing services. Revenues are recognized when control of these products or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products and services. Sales, value add, and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are reported within revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The Company does not have any significant financing components as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale. The Company determined revenue recognition through the following steps:
|
|
•
|
Identification of the contract with a customer
|
|
|
•
|
Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
|
|
|
•
|
Determination of the transaction price
|
|
|
•
|
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
|
|
|
•
|
Recognition of revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied

Contract Balances
Other than receivables that represent an unconditional right to consideration, which are presented separately (See Note 4), the Company does not recognize any contract assets which give conditional rights to receive consideration, as the Company does not incur costs to obtain customer contracts that are recoverable. The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance for limited production run orders resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified in accrued expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize revenue, which is typically less than a year. The net decrease or increase in the contract liabilities is primarily driven by order activity for limited runs requiring deposits offset by the recognition of revenue and application of deposit on the receivables ledger for such activity during the period. The activity in the advanced deposits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017 is as follows:

Performance Obligations
For performance obligations related to residential floorcovering and commercial floorcovering products, control transfers at a point in time. To indicate the transfer of control, the Company must have a present right to payment, legal title must have passed to the customer and the customer must have the significant risks and rewards of ownership. The Company’s principal terms of sale are FOB Shipping Point and FOB Destination and the Company transfers control and records revenue for product sales either upon shipment or delivery to the customer, respectively. Revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative stand-alone selling prices. Stand-alone selling prices are based on observable prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services.

Variable Consideration
The nature of the Company’s business gives rise to variable consideration, including rebates, allowances, and returns that generally decrease the transaction price which reduces revenue. These variable amounts are generally credited to the customer, based on achieving certain levels of sales activity, product returns or price concessions.
Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration are estimated based upon historical experience and known trends.
Warranties
The Company generally provides product warranties related to manufacturing defects and specific performance standards for its products for a period up to two years. The Company accrues for estimated future assurance warranty costs in the period in which the sale is recorded. The costs are included in Cost of Sales in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations and the product warranty reserve is included in accrued expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The Company calculates its accrual using the portfolio approach based upon historical experience and known trends. (See Note 9.) The Company does not provide an additional service-type warranty.
Bill-and-Hold Arrangement
At the customer's request, the Company entered into a bill-and-hold arrangement with one customer during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Company recognized revenue of
$630
but retained physical possession of the inventory. The Company segregated the inventory and no longer had the ability to use or direct it to another customer. The inventory was available to be physically transferred to the customer. As of June 30, 2018, approximately
62%
of the order had been shipped to the customer.

Revolving Credit Facility
The revolving credit facility provides for a maximum of
$150,000
of revolving credit, subject to borrowing base availability. The borrowing base is currently equal to specified percentages of the Company's eligible accounts receivable, inventories, fixed assets and real property less reserves established, from time to time, by the administrative agent under the facility. The revolving credit facility matures on September 23, 2021. The revolving credit facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Company's assets.
At the Company's election, advances of the revolving credit facility bear interest at annual rates equal to either (a) LIBOR for one, two or three-month periods, as selected by the Company, plus an applicable margin ranging between
1.50%
and
2.00%
, or (b) the higher of the prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus
0.5%
, or a daily LIBOR rate plus
1.00%
, plus an applicable margin ranging between
0.50%
and
1.00%
. The applicable margin is determined based on availability under the revolving credit facility with margins increasing as availability decreases. As of June 30, 2018, the applicable margin on our revolving credit facility was
1.75%
. The Company pays an unused line fee on the average amount by which the aggregate commitments exceed utilization of the revolving credit facility equal to
0.375%
per annum. The weighted-average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility was
4.41%
at June 30, 2018 and
4.12%
at December 30, 2017.
The revolving credit facility includes certain affirmative and negative covenants that impose restrictions on the Company's financial and business operations. The revolving credit facility restricts the Company's borrowing availability if its fixed charge coverage ratio is less than
1.1
to 1.0. During any period that the fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.1 to 1.0, the Company's borrowing availability is reduced by
$16,500
. As of June 30, 2018, the unused borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was
$26,780
; however, since the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio was less than
1.1
to 1.0, the unused availability accessible by the Company was
$10,280
(the amount above
$16,500
) at June 30, 2018.
Notes Payable - Buildings

NOTE 11 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the exchange value of an asset or a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair value guidance outlines a valuation framework and establishes a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and disclosures. The hierarchy consists of three levels as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date;
Level 2 - Other than quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and other than quoted prices for assets or liabilities and prices that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means; and
Level 3 - Measurements using management's best estimate of fair value, where the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The following table reflects the fair values of assets and liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis on the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017:

(1)
|
The Company uses certain external sources in deriving the fair value of the interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps were valued using observable inputs (e.g., LIBOR yield curves, credit spreads). Valuations of interest rate swaps may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in underlying interest rates, which are driven by market conditions and the duration of the instrument. Credit adjustments could have a significant impact on the valuations due to changes in credit ratings of the Company or its counterparties.

As a result of the Robertex acquisition in 2013, a contingent consideration liability was recorded by the company.

The fair values of the Company's long-term debt and capital leases were estimated using market rates the Company believes would be available for similar types of financial instruments and represent level 2 measurements. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and notes receivable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments.
NOTE 12 - DERIVATIVES
The Company's earnings, cash flows and financial position are exposed to market risks relating to interest rates. It is the Company's policy to minimize its exposure to adverse changes in interest rates and manage interest rate risks inherent in funding the Company with debt. The Company addresses this risk by maintaining a mix of fixed and floating rate debt and entering into interest rate swaps for a portion of its variable rate debt to minimize interest rate volatility.

NOTE 13 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan that covers approximately
86%
of the Company's current associates. This plan includes a mandatory Company match on the first
1%
of participants' contributions. The Company matches the next
2%
of participants' contributions if the Company meets prescribed earnings levels. The plan also provides for additional Company contributions above the
3%
level if the Company attains certain additional performance targets. Matching contribution (credit) expense for this 401(k) plan was
$(33)
and
$245
for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively, and
$231
and
$478
for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively. The reduction in the matching contribution expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was a result of revising the estimated match for the year.
Additionally, the Company sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan that covers approximately
14%
of the Company's current associates at one facility who are under a collective-bargaining agreement. Under this plan, the Company generally matches participants' contributions, on a sliding scale, up to a maximum of
2.75%
of the participant's earnings. Matching contribution expense

for the collective-bargaining 401(k) plan was

for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively, and
$67
and
$60
for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively.
Non-Qualified Retirement Savings Plan
The Company sponsors a non-qualified retirement savings plan that allows eligible associates to defer a specified percentage of their compensation. The obligations owed to participants under this plan were
$15,462
at June 30, 2018 and
$17,010
at December 30, 2017 and are included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The obligations are unsecured general obligations of the Company and the participants have no right, interest or claim in the assets of the Company, except as unsecured general creditors. The Company utilizes a Rabbi Trust to hold, invest and reinvest deferrals and contributions under the plan. Amounts are invested in Company-owned life insurance in the Rabbi Trust and the cash surrender value of the policies was
$16,410
at June 30, 2018 and
$18,232
at December 30, 2017 and is included in other assets in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.
Multi-Employer Pension Plan
The Company contributes to a multi-employer pension plan under the terms of a collective-bargaining agreement that covers its union-represented employees. Expenses related to the multi-employer pension plan were
$81
and
$85
for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively, and
$173
and
$151
for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and July 1, 2017, respectively.
NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES
On December 22, 2017, the President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act, among other things, lowered the U.S. corporate income tax rate from
35%
to
21%
effective January 1, 2018. While the Company has substantially completed its provisional analysis of the income tax effects of the Tax Act and recorded a reasonable estimate of such effects during the fourth quarter of 2017, the charge related to the Tax Act may differ, possibly materially, due to, among other things, further refinement of its calculations, changes in interpretations and assumptions that the Company has made or additional guidance that may be issued related to the Tax Act. Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, the Company will complete its analysis over a one-year measurement period from the enactment date, and any adjustments during this measurement period will be included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to income tax expense in the reporting period when such adjustments are determined.
The benefit rate for the six months ending June 30, 2018 was
3.8%
compared with an effective income tax rate of
38.6%
for the six months ending July 1, 2017. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets resulting in only refundable credits and a small amount of state taxes being recognized in the tax benefit for the first half of 2018. The six months ended July 1, 2017 included
$164
of tax expense related to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 which requires a shortfall of tax benefits related to stock compensation to be recognized in income tax expense instead of additional paid-in capital. The Company is in a net deferred tax liability position of
$1,120
and
$1,105
at June 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income tax positions according to FASB guidance relating to uncertain tax positions. Unrecognized tax benefits were
$424
and
$414
at June 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively. Such benefits, if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate. There were
no
significant interest or penalties accrued as of June 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to United States federal income taxes, as well as income taxes in a number of state jurisdictions. The tax years subsequent to 2013 remain open to examination for U.S. federal income taxes. The majority of state jurisdictions remain open for tax years subsequent to 2013. A few state jurisdictions remain open to examination for tax years subsequent to 2012.
NOTE 15 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company's unvested stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share. Accounting guidance requires additional disclosure of earnings (loss) per share for common stock and unvested share-based payment awards, separately disclosing distributed and undistributed earnings. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. Common stock and unvested share-based payment awards earn dividends equally. All earnings were undistributed in all periods presented.

NOTE 16 - STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSE
The Company recognizes compensation expense relating to share-based payments based on the fair value of the equity instrument issued and records such expense in selling and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. The number of shares to be issued is determined by dividing the specified dollar value of the award by the market value per share on the grant date. The Company's stock compensation expense was
$228
and
$455
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and
$201
and
$488
for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, respectively.
On March 12, 2018, the Company granted
297,292
shares of restricted stock to certain key employees of the Company. The grant-date fair value of the awards was
$832
, or
$2.80
per share, and will be recognized as stock compensation expense over a weighted-average period of

NOTE 18 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company assesses its exposure related to legal matters, including those pertaining to product liability, safety and health matters and other items that arise in the regular course of its business. If the Company determines that it is probable a loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss, or an amount within the range of loss, that can be reasonably estimated will be recorded.
Environmental Remediation
The Company accrues for losses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such losses are probable and estimable. Remediation obligations are accrued based on the latest available information and are recorded at undiscounted amounts. The Company regularly monitors the progress of environmental remediation. If studies indicate that the cost of remediation has changed from the previous estimate, an adjustment to the liability would be recorded in the period in which such determination is made. (See Note 21).
Legal Proceedings
The Company has been sued, together with the 3M Company and approximately 30 other carpet manufacturers, by the Gadsden (Alabama) Water Works in the circuit court of Etowah County Alabama [The Water Works and Sewer Board of the City of Gadsden v. 3M Company, et al, civil action No. 31-CV-2016-900676.00] and by the Town of Centre (Alabama) Water Works in the circuit court of Cherokee County Alabama [The Water Works and Sewer Board of the Town of Centre v. 3M Company, et al, civil action No. 13-CV-2017-900049.00]. Both cases seek monetary damages and injunctive relief related to the use of certain chemical compounds in the manufacture and finishing of carpet products “in and around Dalton Georgia.” On motion of the defendants, the cases were removed to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama (Middle Division) Case No. 4:16-CV-01755-SGC and Case No. 4:17-CV-01026-KOB. Subsequently, the Gadsden Water Works filed a motion to have the case remanded back to the state court and such motion has been granted. The lawsuits allege that perflourinated compounds (“PFC”), perflourinated acid (“PFOA”) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (“PFOS”) manufactured by 3M were used in certain finishing and treatment processes by the defendants and, as a consequence of such use, were subsequently either discharged into or leached into the water systems around Dalton, Georgia. The Complaints seeks damages that exceed
$10
, but are otherwise unspecified in amount in addition to injunctive relief and punitive damages. The Company intends to defend the matters vigorously and is unable to estimate the potential exposure to loss, if any, at this time.
As of June 25, 2018, the Company and the Class Representative, as a result of court ordered mediation, have agreed to a Memorandum of Understanding regarding settlement of the class action litigation styled Carlos Garcia v. Fabrica International, Inc. et al Orange County Superior Court Case No. 30-2017-00949461-CU-OE-CXC. The parties have agreed during the quarter to file a motion for approval of a memorandum of understanding with the court in which the case is pending, and to finalize a definitive settlement agreement subject to court approval. The required court approval of the settlement is expected to occur within the next quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company has recorded costs of approximately
$1,514
to reflect our estimate of the costs related to such issues.
The Company is one of multiple parties to a current lawsuit filed in Madison County Illinois styled Danny Atkins and Pamela Atkins, Pltfs., vs. Aurora Pump Company, et al. No. 18-L-2. The lawsuit entails a claim for damages to be determined in excess of
$50
filed on behalf of a former employee that alleges that the deceased contracted mesothelioma as a result of exposure to asbestos while employed by the Company. Discovery in the matter is ongoing. The Company has denied liability, is defending the matters

vigorously and is unable to estimate its potential exposure to loss, if any, at this time. In March of 2018, a similar lawsuit styled Charles Anderson, Pltf., vs. 3M Company, et al, No. 17-L-525 was dismissed. In May of 2018, the lawsuit styled Brenda Bridgeman, Individually and as Special Administrator of the Estate of Robert Bridgeman, Deceased, vs. American Honda Motor Co., Inc., f/k/a Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. et al No. 15-L-374 was placed in the category of "special closed with settlements and bankruptcy claims pending" to all remaining defendants.
On April 24th, 2018, subsequent to the end of the first quarter, a law firm claiming to represent one of the Company's shareholders owning
50
shares, sent a request for information concerning the Company's equity incentive plans, and equity awards granted under those plans to the Company's chairman and chief operating officer, alleging that the law firm is investigating “possible breaches of fiduciary duty” in approving such plans and such awards. All such equity plans were approved by shareholders, and all such awards were made in accordance with the applicable terms of the plans. The Company has responded to the request in accordance with applicable law. No claim or suit has been filed.

NOTE 20 - FACILITY CONSOLIDATION AND SEVERANCE EXPENSES, NET
2014 Warehousing, Distribution & Manufacturing Consolidation Plan
The Company developed a plan to align its warehousing, distribution and manufacturing to support its growth and manufacturing strategy resulting in improved distribution capabilities and customer service. The key element and first major step of this plan was the acquisition of a facility to serve as a finished goods warehouse and a cut-order and distribution center in Adairsville, Georgia. Costs related to the consolidation included moving and relocation expenses, information technology expenses and expenses relating to conversion and realignment of equipment. In addition, this plan included the elimination of both carpet dyeing and yarn dyeing in the Company's Atmore, Alabama facility designed to more fully accommodate the distribution and manufacturing realignment. As a result, the dyeing operations in Atmore were moved to the Company's continuous dyeing facility, skein dyeing operation and other outside dyeing processors.
To complete the Warehousing, Distribution & Manufacturing Consolidation Plan, the Company moved its Saraland rug operation from an expiring leased building to an owned facility in March 2016. The Company completed this consolidation plan during 2016. As a result of eliminating its dyeing operations in Atmore, Alabama, the Company disposed of its waste water treatment plant in

2014. Subsequently, after extensive testing, it was determined that the Company still had some contaminants above background levels and installed a soil cap to finalize the cleanup of the site of the Company's former waste water treatment plant.
2015 Corporate Office Consolidation Plan
In April 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved the Corporate Office Consolidation Plan, to cover the costs of consolidating three of the Company's existing leased divisional and corporate offices to a single leased facility located in Dalton, Georgia. The Company paid a fee to terminate one of the leased facilities, did not renew a second facility and vacated the third facility. Related to the vacated facility, the Company recorded the estimated costs related to the fulfillment of its contractual lease obligation and on-going facility maintenance, net of an estimate of sub-lease expectations. Accordingly, if the estimates differ, the Company would record an additional charge or benefit, as appropriate. Costs related to the consolidation included the lease termination fee, contractual lease obligations and moving costs.
2017 Profit Improvement Plan
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company announced a Profit Improvement Plan to improve profitability through lower cost and streamlined decision making and aligning processes to maximize efficiency. The plan includes consolidating the management of the Company's two commercial brands, Atlas Carpet Mills and Masland Contract, under one management team, sharing operations in sales, marketing, product development and manufacturing. Specific to this plan includes focusing nearly all commercial solution dyed make-to-order production in our Atmore, Alabama operations where the Company has developed such make-to-order capabilities over the last 5 years. Further, the Company is aligning its west coast production facilities, better utilizing its west coast real estate by moving production to its Porterville, California and Atmore, Alabama operations and preparing for more efficient distribution of its west coast products. Furthermore, the Company is re-configuring its east coast distribution facilities to provide more efficient distribution of its products. In addition, the Company had reductions in related support functions such as accounting and information services.
Costs related to the facility consolidation plans are summarized as follows:

Undiscounted reserves are maintained for the self-insured workers' compensation obligations related to the Company's former textile operations. These reserves are administered by a third-party workers' compensation service provider under the supervision of Company personnel. Such reserves are reassessed on a quarterly basis. Pre-tax cost incurred for workers' compensation as a component of discontinued operations primarily represents a change in estimate for each period from unanticipated medical costs associated with the Company's obligations.
Reserves for environmental remediation obligations are established on an undiscounted basis. The Company has an accrual for environmental remediation obligations related to discontinued operations of
$1,753
as of June 30, 2018 and
$1,746
as of December 30, 2017. The liability established represents the Company's best estimate of possible loss and is the reasonable amount to which there is any meaningful degree of certainty given the periods of estimated remediation and the dollars applicable to such remediation for those periods. The actual timeline to remediate, and thus, the ultimate cost to complete such remediation through these remediation efforts, may differ significantly from our estimates. Pre-tax cost for environmental remediation obligations classified as discontinued operations were primarily a result of specific events requiring action and additional expense in each period.
