Explanatory Note

On June 13, 2018, Culp, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing its decision to close its manufacturing facility located in Anderson, South Carolina.  At the time of the filing of the Form 8-K, the Company was unable to estimate the non-cash charge associated with the write-down of inventory related to the closure of the Anderson facility.  This Form 8-K/A amends the June 13, 2018, Form 8-K to include an estimate of that charge.  Except as described below, all other information in the June 13, 2018, Form 8-K remains unchanged.

Item 2.05 – Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

The Company has now determined that it will incur a pre-tax non-cash charge of approximately $1.6 million associated with the write-down of inventory related to the previously-announced closure of its manufacturing facility in Anderson, South Carolina.  This charge will be reflected in the Company’s results for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, and represents the Company’s best estimate of the full amount of inventory write-downs that will be incurred in connection with the Anderson closure.  If this estimate changes in the future in a material way, an adjustment will be reflected in future financial results.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
