Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
Effective May 4, 2026, American Woodmark Corporation’s (the “Company”) Board of Directors authorized the operations wind-down and closure of its Monterrey, Mexico plant in response to current low market demands and rising product input and tariff costs. The Company plans to consolidate Monterrey’s operations into its Pacifico plant in Tijuana, Mexico, and, where appropriate, shift manufacturing volumes from plants in Mexico to the United States (the “Mexico Plant Consolidation”). The Mexico Plant Consolidation is planned to be substantially completed by June 30, 2026, and any remaining ongoing costs will cease upon lease termination, as defined in the lease. Excluding the one-time charges and costs detailed in the following paragraph, the Company expects the Mexico Plant Consolidation to yield approximately $7.5 million in annual cost savings to be included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income beginning in the fiscal year ending April 30, 2027 (“fiscal 2027”), by reducing tariff, labor, and other overhead costs, increasing fixed asset utilization and labor efficiency, and aligning manufacturing capacity to current market demands. On May 12, 2026, the Company’s employees at the Monterrey plant were notified of this decision.
The Company currently estimates it will incur total one-time cash and non-cash charges related to the Mexico Plant Consolidation in the range of approximately $36.0 million to $40.0 million; of which, approximately $32.5 million to $36.5 million will be incurred during fiscal 2027, and approximately $3.6 million will be incurred in subsequent fiscal years. The fiscal 2027 estimated cash costs include the following: $1.2 million in employee costs, $0.7 million to $2.2 million related to equipment moves and inventory transfers, and $0.9 million to $1.2 million in plant closure costs. The fiscal 2027 estimated non-cash charges associated with our Monterrey plant include the following: $12.5 million to $14.7 million related to the building lease right-of-use asset impairment, $13.1 million in machinery and equipment accelerated depreciation, $3.5 million in internal-use software asset accelerated amortization, and $0.6 million leasehold improvement accelerated depreciation. Of the total $3.6 million of cash and non-cash charges in subsequent fiscal years, the Company currently estimates to incur $2.6 million in cash costs in its fiscal year ended April 30, 2029, and $0.9 million non-cash charges in its fiscal year ended April 30, 2030.
Item 2.06 Material Impairments.
The discussion set forth under Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
