Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities On March 15, 2005, Graham Corporation's Board of Directors approved a plan presented by the Company's management to discontinue its U.K. operations by making available for sale the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Graham Vacuum and Heat Transfer Limited and all of its subsidiaries ("GVHT"), including GVHT's operating subsidiary Graham Precision Pumps Limited ("GPPL") in Congleton, Cheshire, U.K., and to hold them for sale. The Company proposed to place GVHT and subsidiaries in administration and to appoint an appropriately qualified U.K. administrator for GVHT and GPPL as a step toward proceeding with sale of the companies. On March 24, 2005, the principal creditor of Graham's U.K. companies, National Westminster Bank, exercised its right to appoint a receiver for GVHT and GPPL as an alternative to appointment of an administrator to sell the U.K. companies. Graham Corporation expects appointment of a receiver to result in a liquidation of the assets of the U.K. companies, and that the liquidation will be completed by March 14, 2006. In connection with the discontinuance of the U.K. companies, Graham Corporation expects to incur a non-cash charge of approximately $4.50 million to $5.25 million in the current fiscal quarter, which ends March 31, 2005. Any income tax benefits that may be realized as a result of the loss are not yet known. The Company does not expect the charge to result in future cash expenditures. Item 8.01. Other Events On March 24, 2005, Graham Corporation issued a press release announcing appointment of a receiver for its U.K. companies. A copy is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
