Effective
March 31, 1999, Steelcase Inc. acquired the remaining 50%
equity interest in Steelcase Strafor. Accordingly, the results
of operations of Steelcase Strafor, which is accounted for
on a two month lag, from April 1, 1999 through December 31,
1999 have been consolidated with the Company’s results of
operations. See Note 19.
During
the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a one-time
charge of $24.5 million ($15.0 million net of tax) to cost
of sales for expenses related to the field retrofit of beltways
and insulation materials within installed Pathways products.
Additionally,
the Company sold certain non-operating assets and had investment
gains resulting in one-time non-operating gains of $15.2 million
($9.3 million after tax).
During
the third quarter of 1999, the Company benefited from the
successful resolution of income tax litigation, which contributed
to a reduction in the overall effective income tax rate expected
for 1999 and resulted in interest income, resulting in an
increase in net income of $6.2 million.
