Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On June 30, 2015, Xerium Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had initiated closure proceedings with the representative union officials at its machine clothing facility in Warwick, Quebec, Canada in order to continue to address the Company’s cost structure. Because the proposal is subject to consultation and negotiation with the local union, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the costs that it would expect to incur in connection with the proposed action or when the proposed action will be complete. A copy of the press release announcing this action is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
Certain of the above statements regarding facility closures constitute “forward-looking statements.” These statements are protected by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. There can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will be accurate since they are based on many assumptions which involve risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown. The following important factors could cause the estimated results to differ: changes in economic or industry conditions; issues arising from rationalization of operations; prolonged negotiations with the union and other risks identified in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission reports and public announcements. Any forward-looking statements included in this report are as of the date made and the Company does not intend to update them if its views later change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this report.
