Item 2.05.     Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities.

On April 28, 2020, the Company announced it will exit the Vehicle Seating and Hospitality product lines.  As a result of these actions, the Company will permanently close its Dubuque, Iowa and Starkville, Mississippi manufacturing facilities. The decision to exit these businesses results in part from the rapidly declining demand and changing market conditions for these products driven by the coronavirus pandemic. In addition, it was determined that these businesses are no longer a strategic fit and will not provide an attractive return on investment for shareholders. The Company estimates that these exits and plant closings will be completed by the end of the second quarter of the Company’s 2021 fiscal year, but the specific timing of and the associated financial impact will be determined in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020.
