Item 2.05
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On July 27,
2012, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Park Electrochemical Corp. (the "Company" or "Park")
authorized the closure of the operations of the Company's Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd. facility, located in the Free
Trade Zone in Zhuhai, China, after the completion of the procedures required to cease its operations and liquidate, subject to
the requisite approvals of government authorities in China. Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd. is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Park's Nelco Products Pte. Ltd. wholly owned subsidiary located in Singapore.
Park plans
to supply and fully support all its customers in Asia from its Nelco Products Pte. Ltd. business unit in Singapore. Consistent
with this plan, the manufacturing activities conducted by Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd. will be conducted by Nelco Products
Pte. Ltd. in Singapore in the future. The proposed cessation of operations does not contemplate the loss of any business by Park.
As the result
of the cessation of operations at Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd., Park expects to record total pre-tax charges of approximately
$3.2 million. The charges include non-cash asset impairment charges of approximately $3.6 million and cash charges of approximately
$0.8 million, partially offset by a non-cash cumulative currency translation recovery of approximately $1.2 million. The Company
is recording approximately $2.6 million of these charges in the 2013 fiscal year second quarter ending August 26, 2012 and expects
to record the balance of the charges during the remaining two quarters of the current fiscal year ending March 3, 2013 and the
first quarter of the 2014 fiscal year. The Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd. business operations will have no further impact
on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Park after the cessation of operations.
The Company
issued a news release on July 31, 2012 announcing the plan to cease operations at Nelco Technology (Zhuhai FTZ) Ltd. A copy of
such news release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
