DELTA APPAREL, INC
- Suspended Honduras manufacturing on June 6, 2024; suspension expected for at least 120 days while exploring sale or permanent wind-down of offshore operations.
- Approximately 2,413 employees impacted; company had previously wound down Mexico operations and is seeking sale of El Salvador plant.
- Deteriorating liquidity prevents purchase of raw materials and payment of offshore employee compensation; credit facility covenant non-compliance remains uncured.
- Restructuring charges (employee benefits, facility closure costs) expected beginning Q3 FY2024, but amounts are currently unestimable.
- Also exploring potential sale of Salt Life business and all strategic alternatives with legal and financial advisors.
