Item 2.05. | Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. |
On September 3, 2013, Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. (the "Company") approved the closing of its Gulfport Composite Center of Excellence (the “Gulfport Facility”) in Gulfport, Mississippi, which it intends to complete by May 2014. In connection with this closure, the Company expects to impact 427 employees either through headcount reductions or transfers and to incur total costs of approximately $59 million, consisting primarily of approximately $52 million in accelerated depreciation of fixed assets, $2 million in personnel related costs and $5 million in facility shutdown and other related costs. All but approximately $7 million of the total costs are non-cash, and approximately $14 million of the total costs will be recorded in the third quarter of 2013, with the remainder expected to be recognized over the following six quarters. The Company estimates that these costs will reduce operating income in the third quarter of 2013 by $15 to $20 million with no material impact in subsequent periods.
A copy of the press release announcing the closing of the Gulfport Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include the amount, timing and components of the charges that the Company expects to incur in connection with the closure of the Gulfport Facility and the impact on operating income, and the Company's actual results could vary from these estimates. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements that it may make.
