COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH AN EXIT ACTIVITY
As part of its supply chain optimization initiative designed to increase operational efficiencies and enhance customer service, HSNi announced in June 2015 its plan to close the HSN distribution center in Roanoke, Virginia and expand the capabilities of its distribution center in Piney Flats, Tennessee. The closure will involve the eventual elimination of approximately 350 positions at the Virginia facility. HSNi expects the closure to occur in accordance with an eighteen-month transition plan and be substantially completed by the end of 2016.
HSN expects to incur approximately $4 million to $5 million in total charges related to the closure. These charges include approximately $3 million to $4 million in employee-related expenses, including severance payments and retention incentives. During the year ended December 31, 2015, HSN recognized $3.2 million in employee-related costs which are included in "General and administrative” operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
A summary of HSNi’s liability associated with exit activities, which is recorded in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, are presented in the following table (in thousands):
