Section 2 – Financial Information

 

Item 2.05

Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

 

 

On January 25, 2018, Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (“Twinlab” or the “Company”) announced that as part of improving operational efficiencies, it will transition the manufacturing of the balance of its products to strategic manufacturing partners (the “Transition”). The announcement came the same day the Board of Directors made the decision to undertake the Transition. As a result, operations at the Company’s underutilized American Fork, Utah facility (the “Facility”) are expected to cease during the first half of 2018. The Board believes that restructuring the company’s supply chain similar to that of its award-winning NutraScience Labs Division (“NSL”), and leveraging NSL’s access to exclusive technologies, and processes, should result in providing the company with greater flexibility, more efficient capital allocation and an improved cost structure, all of which is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

 

The Company will incur certain foreseeable and unforeseeable costs to make the Transition, which will include but is not limited to increasing inventory to maintain products and services throughout the Transition, as well as providing severances to the affected Utah based employees. Currently, the Company is unable to make a determination of the estimates or range of estimates of the costs resulting from the Transition; however, such costs, could be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The Company will file an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after it determines such estimate or range of estimates.
