Note 6Restructuring and Other (Income) Expense, Net

The Company considers restructuring activities to be programs whereby it fundamentally changes its operations, such as divestitures, closing or consolidating facilities, employee severance (including rationalizing headcount or other significant changes in personnel), and realignment of existing operations (including changes to management structure in response to underlying performance and/or changing market conditions).

A progression of liabilities associated with restructuring activities, together with a reconciliation to restructuring and other (income) expense, net, financial statement caption in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings for fiscal 2026, is summarized below:

During fiscal 2026, the following actions were taken related to the Company’s restructuring activities:

The Company made early retirement and severance payments of $1.2 million associated with a TWB VRP. Under the terms of the VRP, eligible TWB employees in the U.S. who chose to participate in the program were offered severance based on their years of service. The VRP was closed to employee acceptance during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company does not expect to incur additional material severance expenses in fiscal 2027 or beyond due to these announced plans.
The Company made severance payments of $0.5 million associated with its announced plans to consolidate WSCP’s remaining Cleveland, Ohio, toll processing manufacturing facility into WSCP’s existing manufacturing facility in Twinsburg, Ohio. The Company does not expect to incur additional material severance expenses in fiscal 2027 or beyond due to these announced plans.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company sold machinery and equipment with a net book value of $0.3 million that was reported within assets held for sale for net cash proceeds of $1.3 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $1.0 million.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company sold substantially all of the remaining net assets of WSCP’s remaining Cleveland, Ohio, toll processing manufacturing facility, which were reported in assets held for sale prior to the sale. Finance lease assets and buildings and improvements, net, with a net book value of $9.7 million were sold for $14.7 million, which included net cash proceeds of $14.1 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $5.0 million. Machinery and equipment with a net book value of $0.3 million were sold for net cash proceeds of $1.3 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $1.0 million.

 

The total liability as of May 31, 2026 is expected to be paid in fiscal 2027.

A progression of liabilities associated with restructuring activities, together with a reconciliation to restructuring and other (income) expense, net, financial statement caption in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings for fiscal 2025 is summarized below:
