ITEM 2.05 COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES.
On December 23, 2014, the Board of Directors of Home Federal Bank (the “Bank”), the primary operating subsidiary of HF Financial Corp. (the “Company”), approved the closure of three branch locations and one branch relocation pursuant to an efficiency and expense reduction analysis performed by management.
The three branches to close are all secondary locations where the Bank has other branches that can serve its customers. The branches to close and the branch to be relocated are located within Sioux Falls, South Dakota Hy-Vee stores, and include the following locations: 3020 East 10th Street, 1601 S. Sycamore Avenue, 4101 S. Louise Avenue and 3000 S Minnesota Avenue. Employees at each of these branches will be employed until closure and eligible to apply for open positions at other branches of the Bank during that time.
The Company believes that these closures of physical and retail-based locations are in line with industry trends and expects to obtain annual cost savings to the Bank of approximately $900,000.
The Company expects to incur one-time costs of approximately $770,000 to $810,000 related to the closure and relocation of these locations, composed of approximately $50,000 to $90,000 in employment termination benefits, $120,000 of data communication and other costs, and $310,000 in asset disposition costs, which will be recorded in the Company’s third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015, as well as $290,000 in lease obligation charges, which will result in future cash expenditures. The Company also announced its intent to relocate its branch at 3020 East 10th Street to an updated location at 3717 East 10th Street in Sioux Falls. The closings and branch relocation are subject to regulatory approval and are expected to occur on or around March 31, 2015.
ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.
In connection with the branch closings and opening, the Company issued a press release. A copy of such press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
