The biggest news in the last 12-18 months at Culp is the acquisition of 80% of eLuxury, which is an online mattress retailer mostly selling in USA.. You can read the news release here. The acquisition was not separately identified in the Culp 2019 Annual Report as a capital expenditure and is included as part of the general expenses. The price of the acquisition is therefore, accounted for as a business expense and reduces profits for the Financial Year 2019.
