During fiscal 2019,Unifi, Inc. changed its fiscal year end from the last Sunday in June to the Sunday in June or July nearest June 30 of each year.Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 ended on June 30, 2019, June 24, 2018 and June 25, 2017, respectively. Unifi, Inc.’s remaining material operating subsidiaries’ fiscalyears end on June 30. For fiscal 2018 and 2017, there were no significant transactions or events that occurred between Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal year end and such wholly ownedsubsidiaries’ subsequent fiscal year ends. Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2019 consisted of 53 weeks, while fiscal 2018 and 2017 each consisted of 52 weeks.PresentationAll dollar amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands (000s), unless otherwise noted. 1  PART I Item 1.BusinessUnifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, “UNIFI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a multi-national company that manufacturesand sells innovative recycled and synthetic products made from polyester and nylon primarily to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers (UNIFI’s direct customers)that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets (UNIFI’s indirect customers). We refer to theseindirect customers as “brand partners.” Polyester yarns include partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solution and package dyed, twisted, beamed and draw wound yarns,and each is available in virgin or recycled varieties. Recycled solutions, made from both pre-consumer and post-consumer waste, include plastic bottle flake (“Flake”) andpolyester polymer beads (“Chip”). Nylon yarns include virgin or recycled textured, solution dyed and spandex covered yarns.UNIFI maintains one of the textile industry’s most comprehensive product offerings that include a range of specialized, premium value-added (“PVA”) and commodity solutions,with principal geographic markets in the Americas, Asia and Europe.UNIFI has direct manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures in Israel and the United States (“U.S.”), the most significant of which is a 34% non-controlling partnership interest in Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”), a significant unconsolidated affiliate that produces cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the global textileindustry and apparel market. We believe the investment in PAL provides strategic diversification for UNIFI’s overall business in response to global textile trends. PAL is a limitedliability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes.UNIFI has four reportable segments: •The Polyester Segment primarily sells polyester-based products to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for theapparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end‑use markets. The Polyester Segment consists of sales and manufacturing operations in theU.S. and El Salvador. •The Nylon Segment primarily sells nylon-based products to knitters and weavers that produce fabric primarily for the apparel and hosiery markets. The NylonSegment consists of sales and manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Colombia. •The Brazil Segment primarily sells polyester-based products to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, home furnishings, automotive, industrial andother end-use markets principally in South America. The Brazil Segment includes a manufacturing location and sales offices in Brazil. •The Asia Segment primarily sells polyester-based products to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, home furnishings, automotive, industrial andother end-use markets principally in Asia. The Asia Segment includes sales offices in China, Turkey, Hong Kong and Sri Lanka.Other information for UNIFI’s reportable segments is provided in Note 26, “Business Segment Information,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In additionto UNIFI’s reportable segments, UNIFI conducts certain ancillary operations that include for-hire transportation services, which comprise an All Other category. The ancillaryoperations classified within All Other are immaterial to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements. In discussion of our operating results in this Annual Report, we refer to ouroperations in the “NACA” region, which is the region comprised of the trade zones covered by the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) and the DominicanRepublic—Central America Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA-DR”). In previous filings, we have referred to this region as “the Region,” and we have referred to our operationswithin this region as our “Regional operations.”Operating and Strategic OverviewUNIFI reported net income of $2,456, or $0.13 per diluted share, for fiscal 2019. These results primarily reflect (i) weaker fixed cost absorption resulting from lower texturedyarn volumes in connection with significant competitive pressure from imported textured polyester into the U.S., (ii) unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts, (iii) avolatile raw material cost environment, (iv) a challenging domestic landscape in which achieving raw material related selling price increases was difficult against cost-competitiveimports, (v) lower earnings from PAL and (vi) a significantly higher effective tax rate than in fiscal 2018. These negative impacts were partially offset by the benefits of (a)growth in sales of PVA products in the Asia Segment and (b) an additional week of sales in fiscal 2019 in the NACA region.The Asia Segment continued strong sales performance, primarily due to the global success of UNIFI’s PVA portfolio. The Polyester Segment was adversely impacted bysignificant levels of imported polyester textured yarn and periodic increases in the costs of raw materials, along with certain pricing and demand challenges in the NACA region.Global demand trends for certain nylon products declined and continued to pressure the results of the Nylon Segment. The Brazil Segment was adversely impacted by marginpressure from periodic increases in raw material costs and competition.2  Despite elevated competitive pressures and periodic raw material cost increases, we believe UNIFI’s underlying performance during recent fiscal years reflects the strength ofour global initiative to deliver PVA solutions to customers and brand partners throughout the world. Our supply chain has been developed and enhanced in multiple regions ofthe globe, allowing us to deliver a diverse range of synthetic fibers and polymers to key customers in the markets we serve, especially apparel. These polyester and nylonproducts are supported by quality assurance, product development and other customer service teams across UNIFI’s operating subsidiaries. We have developed thissuccessful operating platform by: improving operational and business processes; enriching the product mix by growing sales of higher-margin PVA products; and deriving valuefrom sustainability-based initiatives, including polyester and nylon recycling.This platform has provided growth in our core operations during recent fiscal years, and has been augmented by significant capital investments that support the production anddelivery of sustainable and innovative solutions. In order to achieve further growth, UNIFI is committed to investing strategically and synergistically in: 1.Technology, innovation and sustainability; 2.High-quality brand and supplier relationships; and 3.Supply chain expansion and optimization.We believe that further commercial expansion will require a continued stream of new technology and innovation that generates products with consumer-meaningful benefits.Along with REPREVE®, UNIFI has significant yarn technologies that provide optimal performance characteristics for today’s marketplace, including moisture management,temperature moderation, stretch, ultra-violet protection and fire retardation. To achieve further growth, UNIFI remains focused on innovation, bringing to market the next wave offibers and polymers for tomorrow’s applications. As we invest and grow, sustainability remains at our core. We believe that increasing the awareness for recycled solutions inapplications across fibers and polymers, particularly with PVA solutions, and furthering sustainability-based initiatives with like-minded brand partners will be key to our futuresuccess. Growth will also require high-quality partnerships. With a changing retail landscape and a dynamic consumer, brands are demanding fast fashion and localized supplychains. In order to capitalize on these shifts, we expect to identify and enter into partnerships and commercial relationships that expand our global footprint in strategic regions.As the Americas and Asia remain significant components of the global supply chain, UNIFI will be diligent in exploring partnerships that advance our existing growth platform inthese regions.Our recent efforts to alleviate competitive pressures from imported polyester yarn into the U.S. are intended to complement our strategic initiatives and to stabilize the marketshare decline we have experienced in the U.S. These efforts are further discussed below under the heading “Trade Regulation and Rules of Origin.” Execution on both ourstrategic and trade initiatives is expected to drive expansion in gross margin and to increase revenue and profitability.Further discussion of the significant components of UNIFI’s recent performance and its capital allocation strategies is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “AnnualReport”).PVA Products and REPREVE®UNIFI remains committed to growing the business for its PVA products and believes its research and development work with brands and retailers continues to create new,worldwide sales opportunities. UNIFI’s goal is to increase its global PVA sales by more than 10% per year and to generate overall mix enrichment and margin gains. UNIFI’sPVA products represented approximately 47% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2019, and revenue from PVA products grew by 10% over fiscal 2018. UNIFI’s strategy ofenhancing its product mix through a focus on PVA products has helped establish UNIFI as an innovation leader in its core markets and provides diversification from certainglobal competitors.REPREVE® is our flagship brand and our fastest growing brand. As part of our efforts to expand consumer brand recognition of REPREVE®, UNIFI has developed recycling-focused sponsorships with various brand partners and other entities that span across sporting, music and outdoor events. The increasing success and awareness of theREPREVE® brand continues to provide new opportunities for growth, allowing for expansion into new end uses and markets for REPREVE®, as well as continued growth of thebrand with current customers. This has driven traction with global brands and retailers who obtain value and lasting consumer interest from the innovation and sustainabilityaspects that REPREVE® provides.PVA Expansion and Capital InvestmentsIn fiscal 2015, we began a significant, three-year capital investment plan to increase our PVA capabilities and capacity, expand our technological foundation and customize ourasset base to improve our ability to deliver small-lot and high-value solutions. These investments were made primarily for the Polyester Segment.Most notably, we made significant investments in the production and supply chain for REPREVE®, including backward integration with a bottle processing plant and additionalproduction lines in the REPREVE® Recycling Center. Further, UNIFI (i) installed bi-component spinning machinery to produce specialized, high-value yarns and (ii) mademachinery modifications to meet the ever-changing demands of the market, in support of the PVA product portfolio, all while (iii) investing in routine capital maintenance toensure high-quality manufacturing.Subsequent to the multi-year capital investment plan, and specific to fiscal 2019, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital projects, which included (i) making furtherimprovements in production capabilities and technology enhancements in the Americas and (ii) annual maintenance capital expenditures.3  In fiscal 2020 and 2021, UNIFI expects to invest an additional $25,000 and $30,000 in capital projects, respectively, which we expect to include (i) making further improvementsin production capabilities and technology enhancements in the Americas, including the purchase and installation of new eAFK Evo texturing machines, and (ii) annualmaintenance capital expenditures.Share Repurchases In addition to capital investments and debt retirement, UNIFI may utilize excess cash for strategic share repurchases. On April 23, 2014, UNIFI announced that its Board ofDirectors (the “Board”) had approved a share repurchase program (the “2014 SRP”) under which UNIFI was authorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. ThroughOctober 31, 2018 (the date the 2014 SRP was terminated, as noted below), UNIFI had repurchased a total of 806 shares, at an average price of $27.79 (for a total of $22,409,inclusive of commission costs), pursuant to the 2014 SRP. On October 31, 2018, UNIFI announced that the Board had terminated the 2014 SRP and approved a new share repurchase program (the “2018 SRP”) under which UNIFI isauthorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. Under the 2018 SRP, purchases will be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, throughprivate transactions or block trades. The timing and amount of repurchases will depend on market conditions, share price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. Theshare repurchase authorization is discretionary and has no expiration date. As of June 30, 2019, $50,000 remained available for repurchase under the 2018 SRP. UNIFI willcontinue to evaluate opportunities to use excess cash flows from operations or existing borrowings to repurchase additional stock, while maintaining sufficient liquidity to supportits operational needs and to fund future strategic growth opportunities.Developments in Principal MarketsLeading up to fiscal 2017, apparel production experienced multi-year growth in the NACA region, which comprises the principal markets for UNIFI’s Polyester and NylonSegments. The share of synthetic apparel production for these regions as a percentage of U.S. retail stabilized at approximately 18%, while retail consumption grew. TheCAFTA-DR region, which continues to be a competitive alternative to Asian supply chains for textile products, maintained its share of synthetic apparel supply to U.S. retailers.The relative share of synthetic apparel versus cotton apparel as a proportion of the overall apparel market increased and provided growth for the consumption of syntheticyarns within the CAFTA-DR region.In fiscal 2017 and 2018, UNIFI’s operations in the NACA region experienced fluctuations in demand as the retail and apparel markets experienced difficult conditionscharacterized by reduced retail traffic, a weak winter selling season and growth in online sales channels. During calendar 2016 and 2017, these factors combined to causebankruptcies, store closures and other transformations for traditional retail enterprises. Fiscal 2018 and 2019 were further adversely impacted by retailers and brand partnersseeking more cost competitive textile supplies in response to rising and higher raw material costs, while elevated levels of imported polyester textured yarn impacted thedomestic textile industry. As consumers demand fast fashion, personalized experiences and omni-channel outlets, the retail market and its supply chain are expected tochange. Transformational requirements for the supply chain are not yet clear but will be an integral part of UNIFI’s initiatives going forward.UNIFI’s Asian operations remain an important part of our global strategy, enhancing our ability to service customers with global supply chains. Competition in the Asian regionremains high; however, interest and demand for UNIFI’s PVA products in Asia have helped support strong sales volumes in recent years. The margin profile has been impactedprimarily by significant growth of lower-margin products, raw material cost fluctuations and competitive pricing pressures. However, we are encouraged by programsundertaken with key brands and retailers that benefit from the diversification and innovation of our global PVA solutions.UNIFI’s Brazilian operations also play a key role in our global strategy. This segment is primarily impacted by price pressures from imported fiber, fabric and finished goods (toa similar extent as our U.S. operations), the inflation rate in Brazil and changes in the value of the Brazilian Real (“BRL”). Competition and economic and political volatility remainchallenging conditions in South America, but UNIFI continues to (i) aggressively pursue mix enrichment by working with customers to develop programs using our differentiatedproducts and PVA yarns and (ii) implement process improvements and manufacturing efficiency plans to help lower per-unit costs.UNIFI’s operations in Asia and Brazil have been critical to global growth and expansion of PVA products. Looking ahead, we expect expansion into additional markets in Europe,Africa and the Middle East utilizing the supply chain and service model that has been successful for us in Asia.As we expand our global operations, we will continue to evaluate the level of capital investment required to support the needs of our customers and intend to appropriatelyallocate our resources accordingly.4  Industry OverviewUNIFI operates in the textile industry and, within that broad category, the respective markets for yarns, fabrics, fibers and end-use products, such as apparel and hosiery,automotive, industrial products and home furnishings. Even though the textile industry is global, there are several distinctive regional or other geographic markets that oftenshape the business strategies and operations of participants in the industry. Because of free trade agreements and other trade regulations entered into by the U.S.government, the U.S. textile industry, which is otherwise a distinctive geographic market on its own, is often considered in conjunction with other geographic markets or regionsin North, South and Central America, such as the NACA region. The Company’s principal markets for its domestic operations are in the NACA region.According to data compiled by PCI WoodMackenzie, a global leader in research and analysis for the polyester and raw material markets, global demand for polyester yarns,which includes both filament and staple yarns, has grown steadily since 1980, and, in calendar 2003, polyester replaced cotton as the fiber with the largest percentage ofworldwide sales. In calendar 2018, global polyester consumption accounted for an estimated 56% of global fiber consumption, and global demand is projected to increase byapproximately 3.0% to 3.5% annually through calendar 2025. In calendar 2018, global nylon consumption accounted for an estimated 5% of global fiberconsumption. However, the continued decline in the U.S. nylon market during fiscal 2019 had an unfavorable impact on UNIFI’s Nylon Segment. Additionally, due to the highercost of nylon, the industry may transition certain products from nylon to polyester. The polyester and nylon fiber sectors together accounted for approximately 61% of NorthAmerican textile consumption during calendar 2018.According to the National Council of Textile Organizations, the U.S. textile and apparel industry’s total shipments were approximately $76.8 billion for calendar 2018 as the U.S.textile and apparel industry exported nearly $30.1 billion of textile and apparel products, and the exports have grown by approximately 50% since 2009, an increase of over$10.0 billion. The U.S. textile industry remains a large manufacturing employer.Trade Regulation and Rules of OriginThe duty rate on imports into the U.S. of finished apparel categories that utilize polyester and nylon yarns generally range from 16% to 32%. For many years, imports of fabricand finished goods into the U.S. have increased significantly from countries that do not participate in free trade agreements or trade preference programs, despite dutiescharged on those imports. The primary drivers for that growth were lower overseas operating costs, foreign government subsidization of textile industries, increased overseassourcing by U.S. retailers, the entry of China into the World Trade Organization and the staged elimination of all textile and apparel quotas. Although global apparel importsrepresent a significant percentage of the U.S. market, Regional FTAs (as defined below), which follow general “yarn forward” rules of origin, provide duty free advantages forapparel made from regional fibers, yarns and fabrics, allowing UNIFI opportunities to participate in this growing market. A significant number of UNIFI’s customers in the apparel market produce finished goods that meet the eligibility requirements for duty-free treatment in the regions covered byNACA and the Colombia and Peru free trade agreements (collectively, the “Regional FTAs”). These Regional FTAs contain rules of origin requirements in order for coveredproducts to be eligible for duty-free treatment. In the case of textiles such as fabric, yarn (such as POY), fibers (filament and staple) and certain garments made from them, theproducts are generally required to be fully formed within the respective regions. UNIFI is the largest filament yarn manufacturer, and one of the few producers of qualifyingsynthetic yarns, in the regions covered by these Regional FTAs.The renegotiation of NAFTA has been a priority for the Trump administration over the past 18 months. The U.S. has a positive trade balance in the textile and apparel sector inNAFTA, and UNIFI anticipates the modifications made under the United States Mexico Canada Agreement (the “USMCA”) in this sector will not significantly impact textile andapparel trade in the region if/when it is enacted. The proposed USMCA does include strong rules of origin and closes several loopholes in the original NAFTA that allowed non-originating inputs, such as sewing thread and pocketing. The USMCA will need to be ratified by all three countries before it is enacted.U.S. legislation commonly referred to as the “Berry Amendment” stipulates that certain textile and apparel articles purchased by the U.S. Department of Defense must bemanufactured in the U.S. and must consist of yarns and fibers produced in the U.S. UNIFI is the largest producer of synthetic yarns for Berry Amendment compliant purchasingprograms.UNIFI refers to fibers sold with specific rules of origin requirements under the Regional FTAs and the Berry Amendment, as “Compliant Yarns.” Approximately two-thirds ofUNIFI’s sales within the Polyester and Nylon Segments are sold as Compliant Yarns under the terms of the Regional FTAs or the Berry Amendment.UNIFI believes the requirements of the rules of origin and the associated duty-free cost advantages in the Regional FTAs, together with the Berry Amendment and the growingdemand for supplier responsiveness and improved inventory turns, will ensure that a portion of the existing textile industry will remain based in the Americas. UNIFI expects thatthe NACA region will continue to maintain its share of apparel production as a percentage of U.S. retail. UNIFI believes the remaining synthetic apparel production within theseNACA region markets is more specialized and defensible, and, in some cases, apparel producers are bringing programs back to the NACA region as part of a balancedsourcing strategy for some brands and retailers. Because UNIFI is the largest of only a few significant producers of Compliant Yarns under these Regional FTAs, one ofUNIFI’s business strategies is to continue to leverage its eligibility status for duty-free processing to increase its share of business with regional and domestic fabric producerswho ship their products into this region.5  Over the longer term, the textile industry in the NACA region is expected to continue to be impacted by Asian supply chains where costs are much lower and regulation islimited.Imports of polyester textured yarn from China and India - which increased approximately 79% from calendar 2013 to 2017 and which continued to grow during calendar 2018 -remained elevated during fiscal 2019, creating considerable pressure on our margins and competitiveness in the U.S. Accordingly, in October 2018, UNIFI filed antidumpingand countervailing duty cases with the U.S. Department of Commerce (the “Commerce Department”) and the International Trade Commission (the “ITC”) alleging that dumpedand subsidized imports of polyester textured yarn from China and India are causing material injury to the domestic polyester textured yarn industry.In response to antidumping and countervailing duty cases filed with the Commerce Department and the ITC in October 2018, the Commerce Department announced on April29, 2019 affirmative preliminary countervailing duty determinations on unfairly subsidized imports of polyester textured yarn from (i) China at rates of 32% or more and (ii) Indiaat rates of 7% or more. In addition, on June 26, 2019, the Commerce Department announced affirmative preliminary antidumping duty determinations on imports of polyestertextured yarn from (i) China at rates of 65% or more and (ii) India at rates of 10% or more. While final determinations of dumping, subsidization and injury are expected by theend of calendar 2019, cash deposits for the preliminary countervailing and antidumping duties are currently being collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, from theimporter of record, on the subject imports. Thus, the preliminary countervailing and antidumping duties are effectively increasing the U.S-based price of subject imported yarnfrom China by approximately 100%.While the ultimate short-term and long-term impacts of these duties is not yet known, UNIFI expects these countervailing and antidumping duty rates to play a significant role inhelping to normalize the competitive position of UNIFI’s yarns in the U.S. market against the respective imported yarns.CompetitionThe industry in which UNIFI operates is global and highly competitive. UNIFI competes not only as a global yarn producer, but also as part of a regional supply chain for certaintextile products. For sales of Compliant Yarns, UNIFI competes with a limited number of foreign and domestic producers of polyester and nylon yarns. For sales of non-Compliant Yarns, UNIFI competes with a larger number of foreign and domestic producers of polyester and nylon yarns who can meet the required customer specifications ofquality, reliability and timeliness. UNIFI is affected by imported textile, apparel and hosiery products, which adversely impact demand for UNIFI’s polyester and nylon products incertain of its markets. Several foreign competitors have significant advantages, including lower wages, raw material costs and capital costs, and favorable foreign currencyexchange rates against the U.S. Dollar (“USD”), any of which could make UNIFI’s products, or the related supply chains, less competitive. While competitors have traditionallyfocused on high-volume commodity products, they are now increasingly focused on specialty and PVA products that UNIFI historically has been able to leverage to generatehigher margins.UNIFI’s major competitors for polyester yarns are United Textiles Of America S.De R.L. De C.V., O’Mara, Inc. and NanYa Plastics Corp. of America (“NanYa”) in the U.S.;AKRA, S.A. de C.V. in the NAFTA region; and C S Central America S.A. de C.V. in the CAFTA-DR region. UNIFI’s major competitor in Brazil is Avanti Industria ComercioImportacao e Exportacao Ltda., among other traders of imported yarns and fibers. UNIFI’s operations in Asia face competition from multiple yarn manufacturers in that regionand identification of them is not feasible. However, almost all of our portfolio in that region is advantaged by PVA products and a global sourcing and support model that assistsin differentiation.UNIFI’s major competitors for nylon yarns are Sapona Manufacturing Company, Inc. and McMichael Mills, Inc. in the U.S.Raw Materials, Suppliers and SourcingThe primary raw material supplier for the Polyester Segment of virgin Chip and POY is NanYa. For the Brazil Segment, Reliance Industries, Ltd. is the main supplier ofPOY. The primary suppliers of raw materials for the Nylon Segment are HN Fibers, Ltd., U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), UNF America, LLC (“UNFA”), The LYCRA Companyand Nilit America, Inc. (“Nilit”). Each of UNF and UNFA is a 50/50 joint venture between UNIFI and Nilit. Currently, there are multiple domestic and foreign suppliers available tofulfill UNIFI’s sourcing requirements for its recycled products. The majority of plastic bottles we consume in the U.S. are obtained in open-market transactions from variousentities throughout the U.S., while our Asian subsidiaries source Flake from various countries and entities throughout Asia.For its operations in the U.S., UNIFI produces and buys certain of its raw material fibers for Compliant Yarns from a variety of sources in both the U.S. and Israel, and UNIFIproduces a portion of its Chip requirements in its REPREVE® Recycling Center and purchases the remainder of such requirements from external suppliers for use in itsdomestic spinning facility to produce POY. In addition, UNIFI purchases nylon and polyester products for resale from various suppliers. Although UNIFI does not generallyhave difficulty obtaining its raw material requirements, UNIFI has, in the past, experienced interruptions or limitations in the supply of certain raw materials.UNIFI’s bottle processing facility in Reidsville, North Carolina provides a high-quality source of Flake for the REPREVE® Recycling Center as well as for sale to external parties.Combined with recent technology advancements in recycling, we believe the Flake produced at the bottle processing facility will enhance our ability to grow REPREVE® intoother markets, such as nonwovens, carpet fiber and packaging. However, since the bottle processing facility began producing at full utilization in fiscal 2018, plastic bottle costshave increased due, in part, to a tighter supply dynamic, pressuring UNIFI’s gross margins.6  The prices of the principal raw materials used by UNIFI continuously fluctuate, and it is difficult, and often impossible, to predict trends or upcoming developments. During fiscal2017 and 2018, UNIFI operated in a predominantly increasing virgin polyester raw material cost environment, which continued in fiscal 2019 and included a temporary butsignificant spike in polyester raw material costs in September and October of 2018. UNIFI believes that polyester raw material cost fluctuations during most of fiscal 2017 and2018 were a result of volatility in the crude oil markets, while the cost spike experienced in fiscal 2019 was primarily driven by supply and demand dynamics for certainpolyester feedstocks. The continuing volatility in global crude oil prices is likely to impact UNIFI’s polyester and nylon raw material costs, but it is not possible to predict thetiming or amount of the impact or whether the movement in crude oil prices will stabilize, increase or decrease. In any event, UNIFI monitors these dynamic factors closely anddoes not currently engage in hedges of polyester or nylon raw materials.Products, Technologies and Related MarketsUNIFI manufactures and sells polyester yarns and related products in the U.S., El Salvador and Brazil, and nylon yarns in the U.S. and Colombia, for a wide range of enduses. In Asia, UNIFI manages a network of vendors and suppliers to contract manufacture PVA solutions, including our added fiber technologies and REPREVE®, to direct andindirect customers around the globe.Our products sold across all geographies range from specialty, PVA and commodity. UNIFI’s most strategic portfolio, PVA products, comprised approximately 47%, 45% and40% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We provide products to a variety of end-use markets, principally apparel, industrial, furnishings andautomotive.The domestic apparel market, which includes hosiery, represents approximately 58% of UNIFI’s domestic sales. Apparel retail sales, supply chain inventory levels and thestrength of the regional supply base are vital to this market. The domestic industrial market represents approximately 18% of UNIFI’s domestic sales. This market includes medical, belting, tapes, filtration, ropes, protective fabrics andawnings.The domestic furnishings market, which includes both contract and home furnishings, represents approximately 8% of UNIFI’s domestic sales. Furnishings sales are largelydependent upon the housing market, which, in turn, is influenced by consumer confidence and credit availability.The domestic automotive market represents approximately 8% of UNIFI’s domestic sales and has been less susceptible to import penetration because of the exactingspecifications and quality requirements often imposed on manufacturers of automotive fabrics, along with just-in-time delivery requirements. Effective customer service andprompt response to customer feedback are logistically more difficult for an importer to provide.UNIFI also adds value to the overall supply chain for textile products, and increases consumer demand for UNIFI’s own products, through the development and introduction ofbranded yarns and technologies that provide unique sustainability, performance, comfort and aesthetic advantages. UNIFI’s branded portion of its yarn portfolio continues toprovide product differentiation to brand partners, mills and consumers, and is based on two core platforms, REPREVE® and PROFIBER™:REPREVE® is a family of sustainable products made from recycled materials, including plastic bottles. Since its introduction in 2006, REPREVE® has become theglobal leader in branded recycled fibers. REPREVE® recycled fibers may also be customized to provide leading performance and/or aesthetic properties, enabling adifferentiated consumer experience. Additionally, we developed the U TRUST® verification program to provide customers with the highest level of transparency.REPREVE® fabrics contains FiberPrint®, a proprietary technology used to analyze and validate REPREVE® content claims and composition.PROFIBER™ is a family of virgin, material-based performance yarn products that are similarly customizable with a broad selection of industry-leading technologiesdesigned to deliver an array of consumer benefits. UNIFI’s branded yarns can be found in a variety of products of well-known brands, retailers and department stores, including Ford, Haggar, Polartec, Under Armour, The NorthFace, Patagonia, Quiksilver, Roxy, General Motors, Volcom, Pottery Barn, Lane Bryant, adidas, Nike, New Era Hat, MJ Soffe, Abercrombie & Fitch, Levi’s, H&M, TARGET,Express, Costco Wholesale, REI, Macy’s, Kohl’s, Belk, JC Penney, PVH, PACSUN, Zara, Hard Rock Café, Walmart, Bermuda Sands, Lovesac, BUFF and Aeropostale.In addition to the above brands and products, UNIFI combines its research and development efforts with the demands of customers and markets to develop innovativetechnologies that enhance yarn characteristics. Application of these technologies allows for various, separate benefits, including, among other things, water repellency, flameretardation, soil release, enhanced color-fastness achieved with less water use and protection from ultra-violet rays.CustomersUNIFI’s Polyester Segment, Nylon Segment, Brazil Segment and Asia Segment have approximately 390, 140, 410 and 590 customers, respectively, all in a variety ofgeographic markets. UNIFI’s products are manufactured according to customer specifications and are shipped based upon customer order requirements. Customer paymentterms are generally consistent with prevailing industry practices for the geographies in which we participate.7  UNIFI’s consolidated net sales are not materially dependent on a single direct customer and no single direct customer accounts for 10% or more of UNIFI’s consolidated netsales. UNIFI’s top 10 direct customers accounted for approximately 28% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2019 and approximately 34% of receivables as of June 30,2019. However, UNIFI’s consolidated net sales are dependent on demand from a relatively small number of brand partners. UNIFI’s net sales within its Nylon Segment arematerially dependent upon a domestic customer that accounted for approximately 28% of the Nylon Segment’s net sales for fiscal 2019.Sales and MarketingUNIFI employs an internal sales force of approximately 50 persons operating out of sales offices primarily in the U.S., Brazil, China, Sri Lanka, El Salvador and Colombia. UNIFIalso relies on independent sales agents for sales in several other countries. UNIFI seeks to create strong customer relationships and to build and strengthen thoserelationships throughout the supply chain. Through having frequent communications with customers, partnering in product development and engaging key downstream brandsand retailers, UNIFI has created significant pull-through sales and brand recognition for its products. For example, UNIFI works with brands and retailers to educate and createdemand for its PVA products, such as recent engagements involving REPREVE® at multiple events and venues in the U.S. UNIFI then works with key fabric mill partners todevelop specific fabrics for those brands and retailers utilizing its PVA products. In many of these regards, UNIFI draws upon and integrates the resources of its research anddevelopment personnel. In addition, UNIFI is enhancing co-branding activations with integrated point-of-sale and online marketing with popular brands and retailers to furtherenable consumers to find REPREVE® and other PVA brands in multiple retail channels. Based on the establishment of many commercial and branded programs, this strategyhas been successful for UNIFI.Product Customization and Manufacturing ProcessesUNIFI uses advanced production processes to manufacture its high-quality products cost-effectively in North America, Central America and South America. UNIFI believesthat its flexibility and know-how in producing specialty polyester and nylon products provide important development and commercialization advantages, in addition to the recentability to vertically integrate with post-industrial and post-consumer materials.UNIFI produces Flake, Chip and POY using recycled materials. In addition to its yarns manufactured from virgin polyester and nylon, UNIFI sells its recycled productsexternally or further processes them internally to add value for customers seeking recycled components. The REPREVE® Bottle Processing Center in Reidsville, NorthCarolina produces Flake that can be sold externally or further processed internally at our REPREVE® Recycling Center in Yadkinville, North Carolina. Recycled polyester Chipoutput from the REPREVE® Recycling Center can be sold externally or further processed internally into polyester POY.Additional processing of UNIFI’s polyester POY includes texturing, dyeing, twisting, beaming and draw winding. The texturing process, which is common to both polyester andnylon, involves the use of high-speed machines to draw, heat and false-twist POY to produce yarn with different physical characteristics, depending on its ultimate enduse. Texturing gives the yarn greater bulk, strength, stretch, consistent dye-ability and a softer feel, thereby making it suitable for use in the knitting and weaving offabric. Solution dyeing and package dyeing allow for matching of customer-specific color requirements for yarns sold into various markets. Twisting incorporates real twist intofilament yarns, which can be sold for a variety of uses, such as sewing thread, home furnishings and apparel. Beaming places both textured and covered yarns onto beams tobe used by customers in warp knitting and weaving applications. The draw winding process utilizes heat and draws POY to produce mid-tenacity, flat yarns.Additional processing of UNIFI’s nylon yarn products primarily includes covering and texturing. Covering involves the wrapping or air entangling of filament or spun yarn arounda core yarn, primarily spandex. This process enhances a fabric’s ability to stretch, recover its original shape and resist wrinkles, while maintaining a softer feel.UNIFI’s subsidiaries in Asia offer the same high-quality and innovative PVA products and technologies through contract manufacturing arrangements with local manufacturers.This asset-light model allows for seamless integration of our products into the global supply chain of our customers. As we expand our Asian operations to meet the needs ofour global customers, we will continue to leverage the asset-light model where the existing infrastructure can accommodate our highly technical processes, while continuallyevaluating the need for additional UNIFI assets in response to ever-changing market dynamics.Research and DevelopmentUNIFI employs approximately 140 persons, primarily in the U.S., who work closely with UNIFI’s customers, brand partners and others to develop a variety of new yarns as wellas improvements to the performance properties of existing yarns and fabrics. Among other things, UNIFI evaluates trends and uses the latest technology to create innovativespecialty and PVA yarns that meet the needs of evolving consumer preferences. Most of UNIFI’s branded yarns, including its flagship REPREVE® brand, were derived from itsresearch and development initiatives.8  UNIFI also includes, as part of its research and development initiatives, the use of continuous improvement methodologies to increase its manufacturing and other operationalefficiencies, both to enhance product quality and to derive cost savings. For fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, UNIFI incurred $12,359, $7,792 and $7,177, respectively, in costs for research and development (including salaries and benefits of thepersonnel involved in those efforts). During fiscal 2019, in connection with consolidating and advancing our global innovation initiatives, certain employees moved fromproduction roles to research and development.Intellectual PropertyUNIFI has numerous trademarks registered in the U.S. and in other countries and jurisdictions around the world. Due to its current brand recognition and potential growthopportunities, UNIFI believes that its portfolio of registered REPREVE® trademarks is its most significant trademark asset. Ownership rights in registered trademarks typicallydo not expire if the trademarks are continued in use and properly protected under applicable law.UNIFI licenses certain trademarks, including Dacron® and Softec™, from Invista S.a.r.l. (“INVISTA”).UNIFI also employs its innovative manufacturing know-how, methods and processes to produce and deliver proprietary PVA solutions to customers and brand partners. UNIFIrelies on the copyright and trade secret laws of the U.S. and other countries, as well as nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements, to protect these rights.EmployeesAs of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had approximately 2,860 employees, along with approximately 200 individuals working under temporary labor contracts. The number of employeesin the Polyester Segment, the Nylon Segment, the Brazil Segment, the Asia Segment and the corporate office were approximately 1,700, 500, 500, 60 and 100, respectively, atJune 30, 2019. While employees of UNIFI’s Brazilian operations are unionized, none of the labor force employed by UNIFI’s domestic or other foreign subsidiaries is currentlycovered by a collective bargaining agreement. UNIFI believes that it has a good relationship with its employees.Geographic DataGeographic information reported in conformance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) is included in Note 26, “Business Segment Information,” to theaccompanying consolidated financial statements. Information regarding risks attendant to UNIFI’s foreign operations is included in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this AnnualReport.SeasonalityUNIFI is not significantly impacted by seasonality; however, UNIFI typically experiences its highest sales volumes in the fourth quarter of its fiscal years. Excluding the effectsof fiscal years with 53 weeks rather than 52 weeks, the most significant effects on UNIFI’s results of operations for particular periods during a year are due to plannedmanufacturing shutdowns by either UNIFI or its customers for certain holiday or traditional shutdown periods, which are not concentrated in any one particular quarter.BacklogUNIFI’s level of unfilled orders is affected by many factors, including the timing of specific orders and the delivery time for specific products, as well as a customer’s ability orinability to cancel the related order. As such, UNIFI does not consider the amount of unfilled orders, or backlog, to be a meaningful indicator of expected levels of future sales orto be material to an understanding of UNIFI’s business as a whole.Working CapitalUNIFI funds its working capital requirements through cash flows generated from operations, which it supplements with short-term borrowings, as needed. For more detailedinformation, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Annual Report.InflationUNIFI expects costs to continue to rise for certain consumables used to produce and ship its products, as well as for its utilities and labor costs and benefits. While UNIFIattempts to mitigate the impacts of such rising costs through increased operational efficiencies and increased selling prices, inflation could become a factor that negativelyimpacts UNIFI’s profitability.Environmental MattersUNIFI is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations limiting the use, storage, handling, release, discharge and disposal of a variety ofhazardous substances and wastes used in or resulting from its operations (and to potential remediation obligations thereunder). These laws include the Federal Water PollutionControl Act, the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (including provisions relating to underground storage tanks) and the ComprehensiveEnvironmental9  Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, commonly referred to as “Superfund” or “CERCLA,” and various state counterparts to such laws. UNIFI’s operations are alsogoverned by laws and regulations relating to workplace safety and worker health, principally the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations issued thereunder, which,among other things, establish exposure standards regarding hazardous materials and noise standards, and regulate the use of hazardous chemicals in the workplace.UNIFI believes that it has obtained, and is in compliance in all material respects with, all significant permits required to be issued by federal, state or local law in connection withthe operation of its business. UNIFI also believes that the operation of its production facilities and its disposal of waste materials are substantially in compliance with applicablefederal, state and local laws and regulations, and that there are no material ongoing or anticipated capital expenditures associated with environmental control facilities necessaryto remain in compliance with such provisions. UNIFI incurs normal operating costs associated with the discharge of materials into the environment, but does not believe thatthese costs are material or inconsistent with those of its domestic competitors.On September 30, 2004, Unifi Kinston, LLC (“UK”), a subsidiary of Unifi, Inc., completed its acquisition of polyester filament manufacturing assets located in Kinston, NorthCarolina from INVISTA. The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99-year ground lease (the “Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours (“DuPont”). Since1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the North Carolina Department ofEnvironmental Quality (“DEQ”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The program requires DuPont to identify all potentialareas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at the identified AOCs and remediate the AOCs to comply with applicable regulatorystandards. Effective March 20, 2008, UK entered into a lease termination agreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at the Kinston site to DuPont. Thisagreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved UK of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, withregard to UK’s period of operation of the Kinston site, which was from 2004 to 2008. At this time, UNIFI has no basis to determine if or when it will have any responsibility orobligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same.UK continues to own property (the “Kentec site”) acquired in the 2004 transaction with INVISTA that has contamination from DuPont’s prior operations and is monitored byDEQ. The Kentec site has been remediated by DuPont, and DuPont has received authority from DEQ to discontinue further remediation, other than natural attenuation. Prior totransfer of responsibility to UK, DuPont and UK had a duty to monitor and report the environmental status of the Kentec site to DEQ.Effective April 10, 2019, UK assumed sole remediator responsibility of the Kentec site pursuant to its contractual obligations with INVISTA and received $180 of net monitoringand reporting costs due from DuPont. In connection with monitoring, UK expects to sample and report to DEQ annually. UNIFI expects no active site remediation will berequired and has no basis to determine any costs that may be associated with active remediation.Joint Ventures and Unconsolidated AffiliatesIn addition to its 34% ownership in PAL, UNIFI participates in two joint ventures that supply raw materials to the Nylon Segment, with one located in the U.S. and one inIsrael. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had $114,320 recorded for these investments in unconsolidated affiliates. For fiscal 2019, $3,968 of UNIFI’s $10,011 of income beforeincome taxes was generated from its investments in these unconsolidated affiliates, of which $2,561 was attributable to PAL. Other information regarding UNIFI’sunconsolidated affiliates is provided in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in Note 23, “Investments inUnconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest Entities,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.On December 23, 2016, UNIFI, through a wholly owned foreign subsidiary, sold its 60% equity ownership interest in Repreve Renewables, LLC (“Renewables”), an entity thatwas focused on the development, production and commercialization of miscanthus grass for use in multiple potential markets, to its existing third-party joint venture partner for$500 in cash and release of certain debt obligations. UNIFI had no continuing involvement in the operations of Renewables subsequent to December 23, 2016. Thecorresponding results of Renewables, up through the date of sale, are reflected in continuing operations within the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Available InformationUNIFI’s website is www.unifi.com.

Risk Factors Many of the factors that affect UNIFI’s business and operations involve risk and uncertainty. The factors described below are some of the risks that could materially negativelyaffect UNIFI’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. You should consider all such risks in evaluating UNIFI or making any investment decisioninvolving UNIFI. UNIFI faces intense competition from a number of domestic and foreign yarn producers and importers of foreign-sourced fabric, apparel and other textileproducts. Because UNIFI and the supply chains in which UNIFI conducts its business do not typically operate on the basis of long-term contracts with textilecustomers or brand partners, these competitive factors could cause UNIFI’s customers or brand partners to shift rapidly to other producers. UNIFI competes not only against domestic and foreign yarn producers, but also against importers of foreign-sourced fabric, apparel and other textile products into the U.S. andother countries in which UNIFI does business (particularly in Brazil with respect to commodity yarn products). The primary competitive factors in the textile industry includeprice, quality, product styling, performance attributes and differentiation, brand reputation, flexibility and location of production and finishing, delivery time and customer service.The needs of certain customers and brand partners and the characteristics of particular products determine the relative importance of these various factors. A large number ofUNIFI’s foreign competitors have significant competitive advantages that may include lower labor and raw material costs, production facilities in locations outside UNIFI’sexisting supply chain, government subsidies and favorable foreign currency exchange rates against the USD. If any of these advantages increase, or if new and/or largercompetitors emerge in the future, or if UNIFI’s brand reputation is detrimentally impacted, then UNIFI’s products could become less competitive, and its sales and profits maydecrease as a result. In particular, devaluation of the Chinese currency against the USD could result in UNIFI’s products becoming less competitive from a pricing standpointand/or could result in the NACA region losing market share to Chinese imports, thereby adversely impacting UNIFI’s sales and profits. Also, while these foreign competitorshave traditionally focused on commodity production, they are now increasingly focused on PVA products, where UNIFI has been able to generate higher margins. UNIFI maynot be able to continue to compete effectively with foreign-made textile and apparel products, which would materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, results ofoperations or cash flows. Similarly, to maximize their own supply chain efficiency, customers and brand partners sometimes request that UNIFI’s products be produced andsourced from specific geographic locations that are in close proximity to the customer’s fabric mills or that have other desirable attributes from the customer’sperspective. These locations are sometimes situated outside the footprint of UNIFI’s existing global supply chain. If UNIFI is unable to move production based on customerrequests or other shifts in regional demand, we may lose sales and experience an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A significant portion of our sales is dependent upon demand from a few large brand partners. UNIFI’s strategy involves the sale of products and solutions to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers (UNIFI’s direct customers) that produce yarn and/or fabricfor brands and retailers in the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets (UNIFI’s indirect customers). We refer to these indirectcustomers as “brand partners.” Although we generally do not derive revenue directly from our brand partners, sales volumes to our direct customers are linked with demandfrom our brand partners because our direct sales generally form a part of our brand partner’s supply chain. A significant portion of our overall sales is tied to ongoing programsfor a small number of brand partners. Our future operating results depend on both the success of our largest brand partners and on our success in diversifying our productsand our indirect customer base. Because we typically do not operate on the basis of long-term contracts, our customers and brand partners can cease incorporating ourproducts into their own with little notice to us and with little or no penalty. The loss of a large brand partner, and the failure to add new customers to replace the correspondinglost sales, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Significant price volatility of UNIFI’s raw materials and rising energy costs may result in increased production costs. UNIFI attempts to pass such increases inproduction costs on to its customers through responsive price increases. However, any such price increases are effective only after a time lag that may spanone or more quarters, during which UNIFI and its margins are negatively affected. Petroleum-based chemicals and recycled plastic bottles comprise a significant portion of UNIFI’s raw materials. The prices for these products and energy costs are volatile anddependent on global supply and demand dynamics, including geo-political risks. While UNIFI enters into raw material supply agreements from time to time, these agreementstypically provide index pricing based on quoted market prices. Therefore, supply agreements provide only limited protection against price volatility. UNIFI attempts to pass on toits customers increases in raw material costs but at times it cannot and, when it can, there is typically a time lag that adversely affects UNIFI and its margins during one or morequarters. Certain customers are subject to an index-based pricing model in which UNIFI’s prices are adjusted based on the change in the cost of certain raw materials in theprior quarter. Pricing adjustments for other customers must be negotiated independently. In ordinary market conditions in which raw material price increases have stabilizedand sales volumes are consistent with traditional levels, UNIFI has historically been successful in implementing price adjustments within one to two fiscal quarters of the rawmaterial price increase for its index priced customers and within two fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its non-index priced customers. UNIFI has lost in thepast (and expects that it may lose in the future) customers to its competitors as a result of price increases. In addition, competitors may be able to obtain raw materials at alower cost due to market regulations that favor local producers in certain foreign locations where UNIFI operates, and certain other market regulations that favor UNIFI overother producers may be amended or repealed. Additionally, inflation can have a long-term impact by increasing the costs of materials, labor and/or energy, any of which costsmay adversely impact UNIFI’s ability to maintain satisfactory margins. If UNIFI is not able to fully pass on such cost increases to customers in a timely manner (or if it loses alarge number of customers to competitors as a result of price increases), the result could be material and adverse to its business, financial condition, results of operations orcash flows. 11  Depending on the price volatility of petroleum-based inputs, recycled bottles and other raw materials, the price gap between virgin raw materials and recycled Flake could makevirgin raw materials more cost-effective than recycled raw materials, which could result in an adverse effect on UNIFI’s ability to sell its REPREVE® brand recycled productsprofitably. UNIFI depends on limited sources for certain of its raw materials, and interruptions in supply could increase its costs of production, cause productioninefficiencies or lead to a halt in production. UNIFI depends on a limited number of third parties for certain raw material supplies, such as POY, Chip and recycled plastic bottles. Although alternative sources of rawmaterials exist, UNIFI may not be able to obtain adequate supplies of such materials on acceptable terms, or at all, from other sources. UNIFI is dependent on NAFTA, CAFTA-DR and Berry Amendment qualified suppliers of raw materials for the production of Compliant Yarns. These suppliers are also at risk with their raw material supply chains. Anysignificant disruption or curtailment in the supply of any of its raw materials could cause UNIFI to reduce or cease its production for an extended period, or require UNIFI toincrease its pricing, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A disruption at one of our facilities could harm our business and result in significant losses, lead to a decline in sales and increase our costs and expenses. Our operations and business could be disrupted by natural disasters, industrial accidents, power or water shortages, extreme weather conditions and other man-madedisasters or catastrophic events. We carry commercial property damage and business interruption insurance against various risks, with limits we deem adequate forreimbursement for damage to our fixed assets and resulting disruption of our operations. However, the occurrence of any of these business disruptions could harm ourbusiness and result in significant losses, lead to a decline in sales and increase our costs and expenses. Any disruptions from these events could require substantialexpenditures and recovery time in order to fully resume operations and could also have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results to the extent losses areuninsured or exceed insurance recoveries and to the extent that such disruptions adversely impact our relationships with our customers. UNIFI has significant foreign operations, and its consolidated results of operations and business may be adversely affected by the risks associated with doingbusiness in foreign locations, including the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. UNIFI has operations in Brazil, China, Colombia, El Salvador and Sri Lanka, and participates in a joint venture located in Israel. In addition, to help service its customers, UNIFIfrom time to time engages with third-party independent contractors to provide sales and distribution, manufacturing and other operational and administrative support services inlocations around the world. UNIFI serves customers throughout the Americas and Asia, as well as various countries in Europe. UNIFI’s foreign operations are subject to certainpolitical, tax, economic and other uncertainties not encountered by its domestic operations that can materially impact UNIFI’s supply chains or other aspects of its foreignoperations. The risks of international operations include trade barriers, duties, exchange controls, national and regional labor strikes, social and political unrest, generaleconomic risks, compliance with a variety of foreign laws (including tax laws), the difficulty of enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through foreign legal systems,taxes on distributions or deemed distributions to UNIFI or any of its U.S. subsidiaries, maintenance of minimum capital requirements, and import and export controls. UNIFI’sconsolidated results of operations and business could be adversely affected as a result of a significant adverse development with respect to any of these risks. Through its foreign operations, UNIFI is also exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will impact period-to-period comparisons of UNIFI’s reported results. Additionally, UNIFI operates in countries with foreign exchange controls. These controls may limit UNIFI’s ability to transferfunds from its international operations and joint ventures or otherwise to convert local currencies into USDs. These limitations could adversely affect UNIFI’s ability to accesscash from its foreign operations. In addition, due to its foreign operations, a risk exists that UNIFI’s employees, contractors or agents could engage in business practices prohibited by U.S. laws and regulationsapplicable to the Company, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the laws and regulations of other countries, such as the Brazilian Clean Companies Act. UNIFImaintains policies prohibiting these practices, but it remains subject to the risk that one or more of its employees, contractors or agents, specifically ones based in or fromcountries where such practices are customary, will engage in business practices in violation of these laws and regulations. Any such violations, even if in breach of UNIFI’spolicies, could adversely affect its business or financial performance. UNIFI’s future success will depend in part on its ability to protect and preserve its intellectual property rights, and UNIFI’s inability to enforce these rights couldcause it to lose sales, reduce any competitive advantage it has developed or otherwise harm its business. UNIFI’s future success depends in part on its ability to protect and preserve its rights in the trademarks and other intellectual property it owns or licenses, including itsproprietary know-how, methods and processes. UNIFI relies on the trademark, copyright and trade secret laws of the U.S. and other countries, as well as nondisclosure andconfidentiality agreements, to protect its intellectual property rights. However, UNIFI may be unable to prevent third parties, employees or contractors from using its intellectualproperty without authorization, breaching nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements, or independently developing technology that is similar to UNIFI’s. The use of UNIFI’sintellectual property by others without authorization may cause it to lose sales, reduce any competitive advantage UNIFI has developed or otherwise harm its business. 12  The success of UNIFI’s business is tied to the strength and reputation of its brands. If the reputation of one or more of our brands erodes significantly, it couldhave a material impact on our financial results. UNIFI has invested heavily in branding and marketing initiatives, and certain of our brands—particularly our REPREVE® brand—have widespread recognition. Our financialsuccess is directly dependent on the success of our brands. The success of a brand can suffer if our marketing plans or product initiatives do not have the desired impact ona brand’s image or its ability to attract consumers. Our financial results could also be negatively impacted if one of our brands suffers substantial harm to its reputation due to aproduct recall, product-related litigation, the sale of counterfeit products or other circumstances that tarnish the qualities and values represented by our brands. Part of ourstrategy also includes the license of our trademarks to brand partners, customers, independent contractors and other third parties. For example, we license our REPREVE®trademarks to brand partners who feature this trademark on their marketing materials as part of a co-branded environmental sustainability product narrative. Although we makeconcerted efforts to protect our brands through quality control mechanisms and contractual obligations imposed on our licensees, there is a risk that some licensees might notbe in full compliance with those mechanisms and obligations. If the reputation of one or more of our brands is significantly eroded, it could adversely affect our sales, results ofoperations, cash flows and financial condition. UNIFI has investments in less-than-100%-owned affiliates that it does not control, which subjects UNIFI to uncertainties about the operating performance andquality of financial reporting of these affiliates. The most significant of these investments is UNIFI’s 34% minority interest in PAL. While this investment is designed to provide industry diversity for UNIFI, UNIFI does not havemajority voting control of PAL or the ability otherwise to control PAL’s policies, management or affairs. The interests of persons who control PAL may differ from UNIFI’s, andthose persons may cause PAL to take actions that are not in UNIFI’s best interest. Among other things, UNIFI’s inability to control PAL may adversely affect its ability to receivedistributions from PAL or to fully implement its business plan. The incurrence of debt or entry into other agreements by PAL may result in restrictions or prohibitions on PAL’sability to make distributions to UNIFI. Even where PAL is not restricted by contract or by law from making distributions, UNIFI may not be able to influence the timing or amountof such distributions. In addition, if the controlling investor in PAL fails to observe its commitments, PAL may not be able to operate according to its business plan, or UNIFI mayneed to increase its level of investment commitment. If any of these events were to occur, UNIFI’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could bematerially adversely affected. UNIFI also relies on accurate financial reporting from PAL for preparation of UNIFI’s quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements. Errors in the financial informationreported by PAL could be material to UNIFI and may require us to restate past financial statements. Any such restatements could have a material adverse effect on UNIFI orthe market price of our common stock. PAL receives economic adjustment payments from the Commodity Credit Corporation under the Economic Adjustment Assistance to Users of Upland Cotton. The economicassistance received under this program must be used to acquire, construct, install, modernize, develop, convert or expand land, plant, buildings, equipment or machinerydirectly attributable to the purpose of manufacturing upland cotton into eligible cotton products in the U.S. Should PAL no longer meet the criteria to receive economicassistance under the program, or should the program be discontinued, PAL’s business and profitability could be significantly impacted, which would adversely affect UNIFI. UNIFI requires cash to service its indebtedness and to fund capital expenditures and strategic initiatives, and its ability to generate sufficient cash for thosepurposes depends on many factors beyond its control. UNIFI’s principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations and borrowings under its credit facility. UNIFI’s ability to make payments on its indebtedness andto fund planned capital expenditures and strategic initiatives will depend on its ability to generate future cash flows from operations. This ability, to a certain extent, is subject togeneral economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond UNIFI’s control. The business may not generate sufficient cash flows fromoperations, and future borrowings may not be available to UNIFI in amounts sufficient, to enable UNIFI to pay its indebtedness and to fund its other liquidity needs. Any suchdevelopment would have a material adverse effect on UNIFI. A decline in general economic or political conditions, and changes in consumer spending, could cause a decline in demand for textile products, includingUNIFI’s products. UNIFI’s products are used in the production of fabric primarily for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets. Demand forfurniture and other durable goods is often affected significantly by economic conditions that have global or regional industry-wide consequences. Demand for a number ofcategories of apparel also tends to be tied to economic cycles and customer preferences that affect the textile industry in general. Demand for textile products, therefore, tendsto vary with the business cycles of the U.S. and other economies, as well as changes in global trade flows, and economic and political conditions. Additionally, prolongedeconomic downturns that negatively impact UNIFI’s results of operations and cash flows could result in future material impairment charges to write-down the carrying value ofcertain assets, including amortizable intangible assets and equity affiliates. Changes in consumer spending, customer preferences, fashion trends and end uses for UNIFI’s products could weaken UNIFI’s competitive position and cause UNIFI’sproducts to become less competitive, and its sales and profits may decrease as a result. Additionally, the end-consumer retail and apparel markets may continue to experiencedifficult conditions characterized by reduced retail traffic and growth in online sales channels, which may cause bankruptcies, store closures and other transformations fortraditional retail enterprises, which could have an adverse effect on UNIFI’s business and financial condition. 13  Historic trends indicate weakening performance in the nylon sector on a global basis. If the decline is significant in any one year or the cumulative decline over a number ofyears is significant, the impact could have a material adverse effect on UNIFI’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Unfavorable changes in trade policies and/or violations of existing trade policies could weaken UNIFI’s competitive position significantly and have a materialadverse effect on its business. A number of markets within the textile industry in which UNIFI sells its products, particularly the apparel, hosiery and home furnishings markets, are subject to intense foreigncompetition. Other markets within the textile industry in which UNIFI sells its products may in the future become subject to more intense foreign competition. There are currentlya number of trade regulations and duties in place to protect the U.S. textile industry against competition from low-priced foreign producers, such as those in China andVietnam. Political and policy-driven influences are subjecting international trade regulations to significant change, the details of which have not yet been fully established and theconsequences of which are not yet fully understood. Future changes in such trade regulations or duties may make the price of UNIFI’s products less attractive than the goodsof its competitors or the finished products of a competitor in the supply chain, which could have a material adverse effect on UNIFI’s business, financial condition, results ofoperations or cash flows. Such changes in U.S. import duties might also result in increased indirect costs on items imported to support UNIFI’s domestic operations and/orcountervailing or responsive changes applicable to exports of our products outside the U.S. According to industry experts and trade associations, there has been a significant amount of illegal transshipments of apparel products into the U.S. and into certain othercountries in the NACA region in which UNIFI competes. Illegal transshipment involves circumventing duties by falsely claiming that textiles and apparel are products of aparticular country of origin (or include yarn of a particular country of origin) to avoid paying higher duties or to receive benefits from regional free trade agreements, such asNAFTA and CAFTA-DR. If illegal transshipments are not monitored, and if enforcement is not effective to limit them, these shipments could have a material adverse effect onUNIFI’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.The renegotiation of NAFTA has been a priority for the Trump administration over the past 18 months. The U.S. has a positive trade balance in the textile and apparel sector inNAFTA, and UNIFI anticipates the modifications made under the USMCA in this sector will not significantly impact textile and apparel trade in the region if/when it is enacted. Theproposed USMCA does include strong rules of origin and closes several loopholes in the original NAFTA that allowed non-originating inputs, such as sewing thread andpocketing. The USMCA will need to be ratified by all three countries before it is enacted. In order to compete effectively, we must attract, retain and motivate key employees, and our failure to do so could harm our business and our results ofoperations. In order to compete effectively, we must attract and retain qualified employees. Our future operating results and success depend on keeping key personnel and managementand also expanding our technical, sales and marketing, innovation and administrative support. The competition for qualified personnel is intense, particularly as it relates tohourly personnel in the domestic communities in which our manufacturing facilities are located. We cannot be sure that we will be able to attract and retain qualified personnel inthe future, which could harm our business and results of operations. Our business and operations could suffer in the event of cybersecurity breaches. Attempts to gain unauthorized access to our information technology systems have become increasingly more sophisticated over time. These attempts, which might be relatedto industrial or other espionage, include covertly introducing malware to our computers and networks and impersonating authorized users, among others. We seek to detectand investigate all security incidents and to prevent their recurrence, but in some cases we might be unaware of an incident or its magnitude and effects. We carry dataprotection liability insurance against cyber attacks, with limits we deem adequate for the reimbursement for damage to our computers, equipment and networks and resultingdisruption of our operations. Any disruption from a cyber attack could require substantial expenditures and recovery time in order to fully resume operations and could alsohave a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results to the extent losses are uninsured or exceed insurance recoveries and to the extent that such disruptionsadversely impact our relationships with our customers. We have been a target of cybersecurity attacks in the past and, while such attacks have not resulted in a materialimpact on our operations or business, such attacks could in the future. The theft, unauthorized use or publication of our intellectual property and/or confidential business information could harm our competitive position, reduce the value of ourinvestment in research and development and other strategic initiatives or otherwise adversely affect our business. To the extent that any cybersecurity breach results ininappropriate disclosure of our customers’ or brand partners’ confidential information, we may incur a liability as a result. In addition, the devotion of additional resources to thesecurity of our information technology systems in the future could significantly increase the cost of doing business or otherwise adversely impact our financial results. UNIFI may be subject to greater tax liabilities.UNIFI is subject to income tax and other taxes in the U.S. and in numerous foreign jurisdictions. UNIFI’s domestic and foreign income tax liabilities are dependent on thejurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed. Additionally, the amount of taxes paid is subject to UNIFI’s interpretation of applicable tax laws in thejurisdictions in which we operate. Changes in tax laws, or in judicial or administrative interpretations of tax laws, could have an adverse effect on UNIFI’s business, financialcondition, operating results and cash flows. Significant judgment, knowledge and experience are required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes. UNIFI’sfuture effective tax rate will be impacted by a number of factors including our14  interpretation of H.R. 1 (formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act) and any pending regulations and interpretive guidance to be released.UNIFI anticipates that the U.S. Treasury Department, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other standard-setting bodies will continue to issue regulations and interpretiveguidance on how the provisions of H.R. 1 will be applied or otherwise administered, and additional regulations or interpretive guidance may be issued in the future that is differentfrom UNIFI’s current interpretation. As regulations and guidance evolve with respect to H.R. 1, and as UNIFI gathers more information and performs additional analysis,UNIFI’s results may differ from previous estimates.H.R. 1 will significantly impact how U.S. multinational corporations like UNIFI are taxed on foreign earnings, which are now deemed to be repatriated. These changes resulted ina higher effective tax rate for UNIFI for fiscal 2019. Numerous countries are evaluating their existing tax laws due, in part, to recommendations made by the Organization forEconomic Cooperation & Development’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting project and in response to the changes in U.S. tax laws. Although UNIFI cannot predict whether, or inwhat form, any legislation based on such proposals may be adopted by the countries in which we do business, future tax reform based on such proposals may increase theamount of taxes UNIFI pays and may also adversely affect our operating results and cash flows.

Management does not perceiveany capacity constraints in the foreseeable future. 15  Item 3.Legal ProceedingsWe are from time to time a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. With respect to all such lawsuits, claimsand proceedings, we record reserves when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We do not believe that any of theseproceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We maintainliability insurance for certain risks that is subject to certain self-insurance limits. Item 4.Mine Safety DisclosuresNot applicable.

A significant number of the outstanding shares of common stock that are beneficially ownedby individuals and entities are registered in the name of Cede & Co. Cede & Co. is a nominee of The Depository Trust Company, a securities depository for banks andbrokerage firms. UNIFI estimates that there are approximately 4,000 beneficial owners of its common stock.No dividends were paid in the past two fiscal years, and UNIFI does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. UNIFI’s current debt obligations contain certainrestricted payment and restricted investment provisions, including a restriction on the payment of dividends and share repurchases under certain circumstances. Informationregarding UNIFI’s debt obligations is provided in Note 13, “Long-Term Debt,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Purchases of Equity SecuritiesOn April 23, 2014, UNIFI announced that the Board had approved the 2014 SRP under which UNIFI was authorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock.

Item 7.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsThe following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected UNIFI’s operations, along with material changes in financial condition,during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the remainder ofthis Annual Report, with the understanding that “forward-looking statements” may be present. A reference to a “note” refers to the accompanying notes to consolidated financialstatements.OverviewUNIFI manufactures and sells polyester-based and nylon-based products primarily to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers (UNIFI’s direct customers) thatproduce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets (UNIFI’s indirect customers). We refer to these indirectcustomers as “brand partners.” Polyester yarns include POY, textured, solution and package dyed, twisted, beamed and draw wound yarns, and each is available in virgin orrecycled varieties. Recycled solutions, made from both pre-consumer and post-consumer waste, include Flake and Chip. Nylon yarns include virgin or recycled textured,solution dyed and spandex covered yarns.UNIFI maintains one of the textile industry’s most comprehensive product offerings that include a range of specialized, PVA and commodity solutions, with principal geographicmarkets in the Americas, Asia and Europe.UNIFI has direct manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures with operations in Israel, Mexico and the U.S., the most significant of which is a34% non-controlling partnership interest in PAL, a significant unconsolidated affiliate that produces cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the global textile industry and apparelmarket. We believe the investment in PAL provides strategic diversification for our overall business in response to global textile trends.UNIFI has four reportable segments - the Polyester Segment, the Nylon Segment, the Brazil Segment and the Asia Segment – as well as certain ancillary operations that includefor-hire transportation services, which comprise an All Other category. The ancillary operations classified within All Other are insignificant for all periods presented; therefore,our discussion and analysis of those activities is generally limited to their impact on consolidated results, where appropriate.UNIFI reported net income of $2,456, or $0.13 per diluted share, for fiscal 2019. These results primarily reflect (i) weaker fixed cost absorption resulting from lower texturedyarn volumes in connection with significant competitive pressure from imported textured polyester into the U.S., (ii) unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts, (iii) avolatile raw material cost environment, (iv) a challenging domestic landscape in which achieving raw material related selling price increases was difficult against cost-competitiveimports, (v) lower earnings from PAL and (vi) a significantly higher effective tax rate than in fiscal 2018. These negative impacts were partially offset by the benefits of (a)growth in sales of PVA products in the Asia Segment and (b) an additional week in fiscal 2019 in the NACA region. In fiscal 2017, 2018 and 2019, UNIFI faced periods offluctuating and/or increasing virgin and recycled polyester raw material costs, reducing the Polyester Segment’s gross margins. Additionally, the Polyester and Nylon Segmentsboth experienced a difficult domestic environment, challenged by weak retail selling seasons, highly competitive imports and cautious ordering patterns from brands andretailers. However, the Asia Segment exhibited strong performance and growth due to the global success of UNIFI’s PVA portfolio and the generally more cost competitivenature of an Asian supply chain.Significant Developments and TrendsUNIFI’s operations in fiscal 2019 and 2018 were focused on enhancing the global supply chain, growing the market for its PVA products and using cash flows from operations tofund select capital projects and strategic growth opportunities. This focus led to the continuing increase in UNIFI’s PVA sales as a percentage of its overall sales, with net salesfrom PVA products representing approximately 47% of consolidated net sales for fiscal 2019. This increase continues a growth trend in PVA sales, which have risenapproximately 10% annually for the past several fiscal years. UNIFI’s strategy of enriching its product mix through a focus on PVA products helps to insulate it from thepressures of low-priced commodity yarn imports and to establish UNIFI as an innovation leader in its core markets. UNIFI’s innovative and sustainable products achievedgrowth in overseas markets, continuing to meet the demands of premier brands and retailers worldwide. However, within the Company’s PVA portfolio, certain products carry alower gross margin profile, and sales of such products grew considerably in fiscal 2018 and 2019, contributing to a weaker mix of PVA sales.20  UNIFI’s flagship REPREVE® brand continued as our fastest growing PVA solution during fiscal 2019. The increasing success and awareness of the REPREVE® brandcontinues to provide new opportunities for growth, allowing for expansion into new end uses and markets for REPREVE®, as well as continued growth of the brand with currentcustomers. Both brands and consumers are demanding more sustainable solutions that provide better performance characteristics, and we believe REPREVE® is positioned tobenefit from this trend.Consistent with the market and financial trends that have affected its business in the last several quarters, UNIFI continued to experience a number of challenges in fiscal 2019.External pressures in the NACA business included elevated raw material costs and suppressed demand for certain yarns, along with elevated levels of low-cost imports ofpolyester yarn from China into the U.S. The volatile nature of these external pressures made navigating the NACA environment even more difficult. Internal pressures included(i) the implementation of selling price increases that left us less competitive, (ii) elevated inventory levels and (iii) the result of weaker leverage of our cost structure. Thecombination of these external and internal pressures caused weaker fixed cost absorption and lower operating margins.Amid these new and ongoing pressures, UNIFI has and is continuing to take actions to reduce costs. Prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2019, UNIFI’s annualized run-rate forselling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) was approaching $60,000. In connection with cost reduction initiatives substantially completed in the fourthquarter of fiscal 2019, UNIFI decreased the annual run-rate of SG&A expenses to approximately $51,000.In addition, UNIFI remains committed to pursuing relief from the competitive pressures that have resulted from the elevated levels of low-cost and subsidized polyester texturedyarn entering the U.S. market from countries such as China and India, which increased approximately 79% from calendar 2013 to 2017 and which continued to pressure ourdomestic business during fiscal 2019. Based on import data obtained in the months prior to and subsequent to UNIFI’s filing of anti-dumping and countervailing duties petitionsin October 2018, an increase of approximately 27% in polyester textured yarn imports from China into the U.S. placed even more pressure on UNIFI’s U.S. margins andcompetitiveness. UNIFI believes this surge in imports was due to efforts to stockpile imported yarn before preliminary duties were imposed by the Commerce Department.Accordingly, UNIFI filed a “critical circumstances” allegation on April 2, 2019, requesting the Commerce Department to apply any countervailing and antidumping dutiesapplicable to subject imports from China on a retroactive basis. The Commerce Department preliminarily granted this request on April 19, 2019, and, on April 29, 2019,announced affirmative preliminary countervailing duty determinations on unfairly subsidized imports of polyester textured yarn from (i) China at rates of 32% or more and (ii)India at rates of 7% or more. In addition, on June 26, 2019, the Commerce Department announced affirmative preliminary antidumping duty determinations on imports ofpolyester textured yarn from (i) China at rates of 65% or more and (ii) India at rates of 10% or more, preliminarily affirming that imports of polyester textured yarns were beingunfairly sold below their fair value in the U.S. at significant margins. Final determinations of dumping, subsidization and injury are expected by the end of calendar 2019. Thesepositive announcements are critical steps in UNIFI’s efforts to better compete against imported yarns that have flooded the U.S. market in recent years.Fiscal 2017 marked the final year of a three-year $135,000 capital investment plan. In fiscal 2015, UNIFI invested approximately $35,000 in capital projects, adding machinery tosupport expansion of its draw-textured and air-jet textured businesses, launching its third production line in the REPREVE® Recycling Center and installing a 1-megawattcapacity solar farm. In fiscal 2016, UNIFI invested approximately $60,000 in capital projects, including commencing construction of a bottle processing facility, commencinganother REPREVE® Recycling Center expansion and enhancing automation systems and existing machinery to accommodate an increasingly complex product mix. UNIFIinvested approximately $40,000 in capital projects in fiscal 2017, completing construction of its bottle processing facility, nearing completion of the fourth production line in theREPREVE® Recycling Center, and completing construction of assets for production of specialized bi-component fibers, along with additional enhancements to existing assetsfor customized and small-lot solutions.In fiscal 2018, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital projects, which included (i) completing the fourth production line in the REPREVE® Recycling Center, (ii) makingfurther improvements in production capabilities and technology enhancements in the Americas and (iii) annual maintenance capital expenditures.In fiscal 2019, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital projects, which included (i) making further improvements in production capabilities and technology enhancements inthe Americas and (ii) annual maintenance capital expenditures.To appropriately leverage the significant investments made in machinery and equipment in recent years, UNIFI expects to make additional investments in certain growthinitiatives, including technology, innovation and sustainability; high-quality strategic partnerships; and supply chain expansion and optimization. These initiatives complementUNIFI’s core competencies and are expected to strengthen our relationships with like-minded customers who value a premier supply chain and state-of-the-art equipment thatoffers technology-driven solutions backed by innovation and sustainability. As a result, these initiatives are expected to increase net sales, gross margins and operatingincome.Raw material costs represent a significant portion of UNIFI’s manufactured product costs. The prices for the principal raw materials used by UNIFI continually fluctuate, and it isdifficult, and often impossible, to predict trends or upcoming developments. During fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, UNIFI operated in a predominantly increasing raw material costenvironment. UNIFI believes those costs were primarily a result of volatility in the crude oil markets, along with periods of supply and demand constraints for certain polyesterfeedstocks.21  The continuing volatility in global crude oil prices is likely to impact UNIFI’s polyester and nylon raw material costs. While it is not possible to predict the timing or amount of theimpact or whether the recent fluctuations in crude oil prices will stabilize, increase or decrease, UNIFI monitors these dynamic factors closely. In addition, UNIFI attempts topass on to its customers increases in raw material costs but due to market pressures, this is not always possible. When price increases can be implemented, there is typicallya time lag that adversely affects UNIFI and its margins during one or more quarters. Certain customers are subject to an index-based pricing model in which UNIFI’s prices areadjusted based on the change in the cost of certain raw materials in the prior quarter. Pricing adjustments for other customers must be negotiated independently. In ordinarymarket conditions in which raw material price increases have stabilized and sales volumes are consistent with traditional levels, UNIFI has historically been successful inimplementing price adjustments within one or two fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its index priced customers and within two fiscal quarters of the rawmaterial price increase for its non-index priced customers.UNIFI is also impacted by significant fluctuations in the value of the BRL and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), the local currencies for our operations in Brazil and China,respectively. Appreciation of the BRL and the RMB improves our net sales and gross profit metrics when the results of our subsidiaries are translated into USDs atcomparatively favorable rates. However, such strengthening may cause adverse impacts to the value of USDs held in these foreign jurisdictions. UNIFI expects continuedvolatility in the value of the BRL and the RMB to impact our key performance metrics and actual financial results, although the magnitude of the impact is dependent upon thesignificance of the volatility, and it is not possible to predict the timing or amount of the impact.In fiscal 2019 and 2018, the BRL weakened versus the USD, while in fiscal 2017, the BRL strengthened versus the USD. In fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, the value of the RMBfluctuated significantly in certain fiscal quarters, but the fluctuations were not significant to any fiscal year as a whole.Results of OperationsFiscal 2019 consisted of 53 weeks while fiscal 2018 and 2017 each consisted of 52 weeks. The following table presents a summary of Net Income: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Net sales $708,804 $678,912 $647,270 Cost of sales 642,496 592,484 553,106 Gross profit 66,308 86,428 94,164 Selling, general and administrative expenses 52,690 56,077 50,829 Provision (benefit) for bad debts 308 (38) (123)Other operating expense (income), net 2,350 1,590 (310)Operating income 10,960 28,799 43,768 Interest expense, net 4,786 4,375 3,061 Loss on extinguishment of debt 131 — — Loss on sale of business — — 1,662 Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates (3,968) (5,787) (4,230)Income before income taxes 10,011 30,211 43,275 Provision (benefit) for income taxes 7,555 (1,491) 10,898 Net income including non-controlling interest 2,456 31,702 32,377 Less: net loss attributable to non-controlling interest — — (498)Net income attributable to Unifi, Inc. $2,456 $31,702 $32,875 See Note 26, “Business Segment Information,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for reconciliations and detail regarding UNIFI’s reportable segments,discussion and analysis of which follows below.22  Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresUNIFI continuously reviews performance indicators to measure its success. These performance indicators form the basis of management’s discussion and analysis includedbelow: •sales volume and revenue for UNIFI and for each reportable segment; •gross profit and gross margin for UNIFI and for each reportable segment; •Net Income and diluted earnings per share; •Segment Profit, which equals segment gross profit plus segment depreciation expense; •unit conversion margin, which represents unit net sales price less unit raw material costs, for UNIFI and for each reportable segment; •working capital, which represents current assets less current liabilities; •Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), which represents Net Income before net interest expense, income tax expenseand depreciation and amortization expense; •Adjusted EBITDA, which represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude equity in earnings of PAL, severance, loss on sale of business and certain otheradjustments necessary to understand and compare the underlying results of UNIFI; and •Adjusted Working Capital, which equals receivables plus inventories and other current assets, less accounts payable and accrued expenses.EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Working Capital (collectively, the “non-GAAP financial measures”) are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not beconsidered a substitute for performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The calculations of the non-GAAP financial measures are subjective, based onmanagement’s belief as to which items should be included or excluded in order to provide the most reasonable and comparable view of the underlying operating performance ofthe business. We may, from time to time, modify the amounts used to determine our non-GAAP financial measures. When applicable, management’s discussion and analysisincludes specific consideration for items that comprise the reconciliations of its non-GAAP financial measures.We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures better reflect UNIFI’s underlying operations and performance and that their use, as operating performance measures,provides investors and analysts with a measure of operating results unaffected by differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and ages of related assets,among otherwise comparable companies.Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) as a measurement of operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis, as itremoves the impact of (a) items directly related to our asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) and (b) items that we would not expect to occur as a part of ournormal business on a regular basis; (ii) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget; (iii) as a valuation measure for evaluating our operatingperformance and our capacity to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business; and (iv) as one measure in determining the value of otheracquisitions and dispositions. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance metric utilized in the determination of variable compensation. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is anappropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity, because it serves as a high-level proxy for cash generated from operations and is relevant to our fixed chargecoverage ratio. Equity in earnings of PAL is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA because such results do not reflect our operating performance.Management uses Adjusted Working Capital as an indicator of UNIFI’s production efficiency and ability to manage inventories and receivables. In fiscal 2019, in connection withchanges to balance sheet presentation required by the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance, UNIFI updated the definition of Adjusted Working Capital to includeother current assets for current and historical calculations of the non-GAAP financial measure. Other current assets includes amounts capitalized for future conversion intoinventories or receivables (e.g., vendor deposits and contract assets), and management believes that its inclusion in the definition of Adjusted Working Capital improves theunderstanding of UNIFI capital that is supporting production and sales activity.Historically, the non-GAAP financial measures aimed to exclude the impact of the non-controlling interest in Renewables, while the consolidated amounts for such entity wererequired to be included in UNIFI’s financial amounts reported under GAAP.See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” below for reconciliations of non-GAAP metrics to the most directly comparable GAAP metric.23  Non-GAAP Reconciliations EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAThe reconciliations of the amounts reported under GAAP for Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are as follows: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Net income attributable to Unifi, Inc. $2,456 $31,702 $32,875 Interest expense, net 4,786 4,375 3,030 Provision (benefit) for income taxes 7,555 (1,491) 10,898 Depreciation and amortization expense 22,713 22,218 19,851 EBITDA 37,510 56,804 66,654 Equity in earnings of PAL (2,561) (4,533) (2,723)EBITDA excluding PAL 34,949 52,271 63,931 Severance (1) 1,351 — — Loss on sale of business (2) — — 1,662 Adjusted EBITDA $36,300 $52,271 $65,593 (1) For fiscal 2019, the Company incurred certain severance costs of $1,351 in connection with overall cost reduction efforts.(2) For fiscal 2017, the Company incurred a loss on the sale of its investment in Renewables of $1,662. Amounts presented in the reconciliation above may not be consistent with amounts included in UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements, and such discrepancies areinsignificant and integral to the reconciliation.Review of Results of Operations for Fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017Consolidated OverviewThe components of Net Income and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior fiscal year amounts are presented in the table below, followed by a discussion andanalysis of the significant components of Net Income. Fiscal 2019 was comprised of 53 weeks, while fiscal 2018 and 2017 were each comprised of 52 weeks. Fiscal 2019 % Change Fiscal 2018 % Change Fiscal 2017 Net sales $708,804 4.4 $678,912 4.9 $647,270 Cost of sales 642,496 8.4 592,484 7.1 553,106 Gross profit 66,308 (23.3) 86,428 (8.2) 94,164 Selling, general and administrative expenses 52,690 (6.0) 56,077 10.3 50,829 Provision (benefit) for bad debts 308 nm (38) (69.1) (123)Other operating expense (income), net 2,350 47.8 1,590 nm (310)Operating income 10,960 (61.9) 28,799 (34.2) 43,768 Interest expense, net 4,786 9.4 4,375 42.9 3,061 Loss on extinguishment of debt 131 nm — nm — Loss on sale of business — nm — nm 1,662 Earnings from unconsolidated affiliates (3,968) (31.4) (5,787) 36.8 (4,230)Income before income taxes 10,011 (66.9) 30,211 (30.2) 43,275 Provision (benefit) for income taxes 7,555 nm (1,491) (113.7) 10,898 Net income including non-controlling interest 2,456 (92.3) 31,702 (2.1) 32,377 Less: net loss attributable to non-controlling interest — — — (100.0) (498)Net income attributable to Unifi, Inc. $2,456 (92.3) $31,702 (3.6) $32,875 nm – not meaningful Net SalesFiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018Consolidated net sales for fiscal 2019 increased by $29,892, or 4.4%, as compared to fiscal 2018.24  Consolidated sales volumes increased 7.1%, attributable to (i) an additional week in fiscal 2019 for our NACA region operations, (ii) continued growth in sales of Flake and Chipin the Polyester Segment and (iii) continued growth in sales of Chip, staple fiber and other PVA products in the Asia Segment. Sales in the Asia Segment continued to expand asour REPREVE® portfolio resonates with our brand partners that are focused on sustainable solutions. The increase in sales volumes was partially offset by soft yarn sales inthe Polyester, Nylon and Brazil Segments. We believe the softness in the domestic polyester environment and the competition from imports continue to be challenges for thetextile supply chain and we have recently taken action in the form of trade petitions to help alleviate such competitive pressures. Our Nylon Segment results also reflect thecurrent global trend of declines in demand for nylon socks, ladies’ hosiery and intimate apparel.Consolidated average sales prices decreased 2.6%, attributable to (i) disproportionate growth of lower-priced Flake, Chip and staple fiber among the Polyester and AsiaSegments, (ii) a decline in higher-priced nylon products and (iii) unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts. PVA products at the end of fiscal 2019 comprised 47% ofconsolidated net sales, up from 45% at the end of fiscal 2018. Even with the relative growth in the proportion of PVA sales as a percentage of overall sales, our customers canchoose between various PVA products, some of which carry higher margins than others. Accordingly, growth in PVA sales does not necessarily translate into higher marginsor increased profitability on a consolidated basis.Fiscal 2018 vs Fiscal 2017Consolidated net sales for fiscal 2018 increased by $31,642, or 4.9%, as compared to fiscal 2017.Consolidated sales volumes increased 10.7%, attributable to continued growth in sales of Flake and Chip in the Polyester Segment and staple fiber and other PVA products inthe Asia Segment. Sales expanded in the Asia Segment as our PVA portfolio resonates with numerous customers. The increase in sales volumes was partially offset by softyarn sales in the Polyester, Nylon and Brazil Segments.Consolidated average sales prices decreased 5.6%, attributable to disproportionate growth of lower-priced Flake, Chip and staple fiber among the Polyester and AsiaSegments, as well as a decline in higher-priced nylon products. PVA products at the end of fiscal 2018 comprised 45% of consolidated net sales, up from 40% at the end offiscal 2017.Gross ProfitFiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018Gross profit for fiscal 2019 decreased by $20,120, or 23.3%, as compared to fiscal 2018. For the Asia Segment, gross profit decreased as sales growth was more than offsetby (i) margin pressure from higher raw material costs, (ii) a greater mix of lower-priced product sales and (iii) unfavorable foreign currency translation effects as the RMBweakened against the USD during fiscal 2019. For the Brazil Segment, gross profit decreased primarily due to (a) unfavorable foreign currency translation effects as the BRLweakened against the USD during fiscal 2019, (b) margin pressure from higher raw material costs and competition and (c) lower sales volumes as described above. For thePolyester Segment, gross profit decreased primarily due to lower conversion margin, in which the first half of fiscal 2019 was unfavorably impacted by higher raw materialcosts, unfavorable sales mix towards lower-margin business and weaker fixed cost absorption resulting from lower textured yarn volumes in connection with significantcompetitive pressure from imported textured polyester. For the Nylon Segment, gross profit decreased primarily due to a less favorable sales mix and weaker fixed costabsorption, due in part to the loss of a customer program to overseas production during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017Gross profit for fiscal 2018 decreased by $7,736, or 8.2%, as compared to fiscal 2017. For the Asia Segment, gross profit increased due to sales growth; however, marginswere lower due to a less favorable sales mix and pressure from higher raw material costs. For the Brazil Segment, gross profit decreased due to increased raw material costsand competition. For the Polyester Segment, gross profit decreased primarily due to higher raw material costs coupled with a lag time in implementing corresponding sellingprice increases, lower yarn sales, incremental depreciation and pressure from ramping-up recycling operations as we incurred higher-than-expected costs in our bottleprocessing facility. For the Nylon Segment, gross profit decreased due in part to a less favorable sales mix and lower sales volumes.25  Selling, General and Administrative ExpensesThe changes in SG&A expenses are as follows: SG&A expenses for fiscal 2017 $50,829 Increase in domestic salaries and fringe benefits 2,701 Increase in domestic recruiting and incentive compensation 2,578 Incremental international commercial investments 1,368 Increase in domestic marketing expenses 859 Other net increases 1,219 Net decrease for external service providers (3,477)SG&A expenses for fiscal 2018 $56,077 SG&A expenses for fiscal 2018 $56,077 Decrease in compensation expenses (4,639)Decrease due to foreign currency translation (1,051)Net increase in professional fees 1,435 Increase due to an additional week in fiscal 2019 841 Other net increases 27 SG&A expenses for fiscal 2019 $52,690Fiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018SG&A expenses decreased from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 primarily as a result of significant forfeitures of share-based compensation and variable compensation in connectionwith executive officer departures that occurred in fiscal 2019, partially offset by (i) an increase in fees paid to professional service providers, primarily for efforts related toantidumping and countervailing duty petitions and (ii) an additional week in fiscal 2019 for our NACA region operations.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017SG&A expenses grew throughout fiscal 2018 to support international growth and an expanded general and administrative workforce. The increase compared to fiscal 2017was primarily a result of (i) an increase in domestic salaries and fringe benefits, (ii) growth in global commercial efforts, (iii) investments in marketing capabilities and activities topromote UNIFI’s brands and (iv) other net increases for sales commissions and general corporate expenses, partially offset by a net decrease in fees paid to external serviceproviders, primarily for consulting relating to strategic initiatives.Provision (Benefit) for Bad DebtsFiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018There was no material bad debt activity in fiscal 2019 or 2018.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017There was no material bad debt activity in fiscal 2018 or 2017.Other Operating Expense (Income), NetFiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018Other operating expense (income), net changed unfavorably from $1,590 of expense for fiscal 2018 to $2,350 of expense for fiscal 2019, which primarily reflects severanceexpenses recorded in fiscal 2019 and unfavorable foreign currency transaction impacts recorded in fiscal 2018.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017Other operating expense (income), net changed unfavorably from $310 of income for fiscal 2017 to $1,590 of expense for fiscal 2018. Other operating expense (income), netfor fiscal 2018 primarily includes unfavorable foreign currency transaction impacts, while the total for fiscal 2017 primarily includes favorable foreign currency transactionimpacts.26  Interest Expense, NetInterest expense, net reflected the following components: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Interest and fees on the ABL Facility $4,515 $3,926 $3,032 Other interest 828 832 1,021 Subtotal of interest on debt obligations 5,343 4,758 4,053 Amortization of debt financing fees 290 367 390 Mark-to-market adjustment for interest rate swap — — (260)Reclassification adjustment for interest rate swap — — 70 Interest capitalized to property, plant and equipment, net (219) (190) (675)Subtotal of other components of interest expense 71 177 (475)Total interest expense 5,414 4,935 3,578 Interest income (628) (560) (517)Interest expense, net $4,786 $4,375 $3,061Fiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018Interest on debt obligations increased from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 primarily due to (i) a higher average debt level throughout fiscal 2019 and (ii) a general increase in marketinterest rates on our variable rate debt.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017Interest on debt obligations increased from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 primarily due to (i) a higher weighted average interest rate resulting from fixing the variable portion of theinterest rate on $75,000 of debt principal, beginning in May 2017, and (ii) a general increase in market interest rates on the remaining portion of our variable rate debt.The change in other components of interest expense from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to a fiscal 2017 favorable mark-to-market adjustment for thehistorical interest rate swap that terminated in May 2017 and less interest capitalized to project costs in fiscal 2018.Loss on Sale of BusinessOn December 23, 2016, UNIFI, through a wholly owned foreign subsidiary, entered into an agreement to sell its 60% equity ownership interest in Renewables to its existingthird-party joint venture partner for $500 in cash and release of certain debt obligations. In connection with the transaction, UNIFI recognized a loss on sale of business of$1,662.Earnings from Unconsolidated AffiliatesThe components of earnings from unconsolidated affiliates are as follows: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Earnings from PAL $(2,561) $(4,533) $(2,723)Earnings from nylon joint ventures (1,407) (1,254) (1,507)Total equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates $(3,968) $(5,787) $(4,230) As a percentage of consolidated income before income taxes 39.6% 19.2% 9.8%Fiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018UNIFI’s 34% share of PAL’s earnings decreased from $4,533 in fiscal 2018 to $2,561 in fiscal 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher raw material costs andreduced operating leverage, most notably in the comparable first fiscal quarters of each fiscal year. The earnings from the nylon joint ventures experienced an increase fromfiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019, primarily due to a period of improved operating leverage preceding a global nylon price increase.Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017UNIFI’s 34% share of PAL’s earnings increased from $2,723 in fiscal 2017 to $4,533 in fiscal 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to improved sales and operatingmargins and lower depreciation expense. The earnings from the nylon joint ventures experienced a decrease from the prior period primarily due to softness in the nylonmarket, consistent with the results of the Nylon Segment.27  Provision (Benefit) for Income TaxesThe change in consolidated income taxes is as follows: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Income before income taxes $10,011 $30,211 $43,275 Provision (benefit) for income taxes 7,555 (1,491) 10,898 Effective tax rate 75.5% (4.9)% 25.2% On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation H.R. 1, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. H.R. 1 includes significant changesto existing tax law, including a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, additional limitations on the deductions for executivecompensation and interest expense, and the transition of the U.S. international tax system from a worldwide tax to a territorial tax system. As a fiscal-year taxpayer, certainprovisions of H.R. 1 impacted UNIFI in fiscal 2018, including the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate and the one-time transition tax (“toll charge”) onaccumulated foreign earnings, while other provisions became effective for UNIFI at the beginning of fiscal 2019. The effective tax rate is subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in pre-tax and taxable income, the mix of income by jurisdiction, changes in deferred taxvaluation allowances, and changes in statutes, regulations and case law. Additionally, the impacts of these factors are greater when pre-tax income is lower. Fiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018 The increase in the fiscal 2019 effective tax rate was primarily attributable to (i) impacts of the global intangible low taxed income provisions newly effective for UNIFI in fiscal2019, (ii) foreign withholding taxes, (iii) establishment of a valuation allowance against certain state deferred tax assets, and (iv) additional tax expense related to the enactmentof H.R. 1. These rate detriments were partially offset by a tax benefit from tax credits related to prior years. The prior year rate of (4.9%) also benefited from the release of avaluation allowance on certain NOLs outside the U.S. consolidated tax filing group and the release of uncertain tax positions. Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017The effective tax rate was substantially lower in fiscal 2018 as compared to fiscal 2017 primarily due to discrete tax benefits in fiscal 2018 attributable to (i) the release of avaluation allowance on certain NOLs outside the U.S. consolidated tax filing group, (ii) the deferred tax benefit resulting from the revaluation of UNIFI’s domestic deferred taxbalances for the lower U.S. statutory rate (including valuation allowances on domestic deferred tax assets) and (iii) the release of uncertain tax positions. These benefits werepartially offset by the toll charge in fiscal 2018.Net IncomeFiscal 2019 vs. Fiscal 2018Net Income for fiscal 2019 was $2,456, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $31,702, or $1.70 per diluted share, for fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to(i) lower gross profit stemming from cost and competitive pressures, (ii) lower earnings from PAL and (iii) a significantly higher effective tax rate, partially offset by lower SG&Aexpenses. Fiscal 2018 vs. Fiscal 2017Net Income for fiscal 2018 was $31,702, or $1.70 per diluted share, compared to $32,875, or $1.78 per diluted share, for fiscal 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to(i) higher operating expenses reducing gross profit, (ii) an increase in SG&A expenses, (iii) higher interest expense and (iv) unfavorable foreign currency exchange impacts,partially offset by (a) a lower effective tax rate, (b) higher earnings from PAL and (c) a loss on sale of business in fiscal 2017.28  Segment OverviewFollowing is a discussion and analysis of the revenue and profitability performance of UNIFI’s reportable segments for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017.In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, UNIFI increased from three to four reportable segments based on a change in the economic characteristics of the Asia Segment, whichprecludes aggregation with the Brazil Segment, based on expectations of differing annual sales growth rates and gross margins. The transition of UNIFI’s reportable segmentshas been applied retrospectively to fiscal 2018 and 2017.In connection with an intercompany agreement established in fiscal 2019 and consistent with an increased focus on a global, innovative supply chain, UNIFI’s operations withinthe Polyester Segment granted rights to the use of certain manufacturing know-how, processes and product technical information and design (“technologies”) to UNIFI’soperations in the Asia Segment. The technologies provide benefit to the Asia Segment by supporting its production and sale of differentiated products. Accordingly, theintercompany charge related to the agreement has been included in the calculation of segment profitability for fiscal 2019 and 2018 to align with the assessments andevaluations performed by, and information provided to, the chief operating decision maker, in consideration of the impacts from intersegment technologies.Retrospective disclosure of the change in segment profitability has been applied beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 such that cost of sales for the Polyester Segmentincludes an intersegment technologies credit, while cost of sales for the Asia Segment includes a corresponding intersegment technologies expense. Each technologies creditor expense is recorded to the respective segment by fiscal year and fiscal quarter, following the methodology prescribed by the intercompany agreement in place. Suchintersegment technologies amounts are integral to evaluating the underlying performance and trends of each segment, and such amounts eliminate in consolidation. Thetechnologies credit (expense) reflected in the respective segments was $5,209 and $2,103 in fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. Per the applicable intercompany agreement,the intersegment technologies amounts were effective beginning January 1, 2018. Therefore, no intersegment technologies amounts are reflected in segment results for eitherthe first half of fiscal 2018 or all of fiscal 2017.Polyester SegmentThe components of Segment Profit, each component as a percentage of net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior period amounts for the PolyesterSegment are as follows: Fiscal 2019 % Change Fiscal 2018 % Change Fiscal 2017 Net sales $370,770 1.8 $364,169 2.4 $355,740 Cost of sales 346,951 4.8 330,975 4.9 315,655 Gross profit 23,819 (28.2) 33,194 (17.2) 40,085 Depreciation expense 16,068 1.1 15,893 14.2 13,921 Segment Profit $39,887 (18.7) $49,087 (9.1) $54,006 Gross margin 6.4% 9.1% 11.3%Segment margin 10.8% 13.5% 15.2% Segment net sales as a percentage of consolidated amount 52.3% 53.6% 55.0% Segment Profit as a percentage of consolidated amount 46.3% 46.1% 48.2% The changes in net sales for the Polyester Segment are as follows: Net sales for fiscal 2017 $355,740 Increase in sales volumes 15,828 Decrease in average selling price and change in sales mix (7,399)Net sales for fiscal 2018 $364,169 Net sales for fiscal 2018 $364,169 Net change in average selling price and sales mix 14,004 Increase due to an additional week of sales in fiscal 2019 6,622 Decrease in underlying sales volumes (14,025)Net sales for fiscal 2019 $370,770The increase in net sales for the Polyester Segment from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to (i) higher sales volumes of Flake and Chip, (ii) higher salesvolumes of dyed yarn in connection with a dyed yarn portfolio acquisition that closed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, (iii) higher selling prices in response to several monthsof raw material related price increases during calendar 2018 and (iv) an additional week of sales in fiscal 2019. However, these benefits were partially offset by a weaker salesmix, characterized by lower textured yarn volumes resulting from highly competitive imports.29  The increase in net sales for the Polyester Segment from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to higher sales of Flake, POY and Chip. However, these changesalso drove a decline in the Polyester Segment average selling price, while lower sales volumes of higher-priced textured, dyed and beamed yarns also negatively impacted thesales mix.The changes in Segment Profit for the Polyester Segment are as follows: Segment Profit for fiscal 2017 $54,006 Net decrease in underlying margins (9,425)Increase in sales volumes 2,403 Technologies expense charged to Asia Segment beginning January 1, 2018 2,103 Segment Profit for fiscal 2018 $49,087 Segment Profit for fiscal 2018 $49,087 Net decrease in underlying margins (10,582)Decrease in underlying sales volumes (1,892)Comparatively incremental technologies expense charged to Asia Segment 3,106 Increase due to an additional week of sales in fiscal 2019 168 Segment Profit for fiscal 2019 $39,887 The decrease in Segment Profit for the Polyester Segment from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to (i) lower conversion margin, in which the first half of fiscal2019 was unfavorably impacted by higher raw material costs that were not effectively offset by timely corresponding selling price increases, (ii) the unfavorable sales mix shifttowards lower-margin products discussed above in the net sales analysis and (iii) weaker fixed cost absorption resulting from lower textured yarn volumes in connection withsignificant competitive pressure from imported textured polyester, partially offset by the incremental technologies expense charged to the Asia Segment.The decrease in Segment Profit for the Polyester Segment from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to (i) raw material cost pressures that were not effectivelyoffset by timely corresponding selling price increases, (ii) along with the unfavorable sales mix shift towards lower-margin products discussed above in the net sales analysis. Inaddition, we incurred higher-than-expected costs in our bottle processing operation during fiscal 2018. These adverse impacts were partially offset by the technologies expensecharged to the Asia Segment.UNIFI attempts to pass on to its customers increases in raw material costs but due to market pressures, this is not always possible. When price increases can beimplemented, there is typically a time lag that adversely affects UNIFI and its margins during one or more quarters. Certain customers are subject to an index-based pricingmodel in which UNIFI’s prices are adjusted based on the change in the cost of certain raw materials in the prior quarter. Pricing adjustments for other customers must benegotiated independently. In ordinary market conditions in which raw material price increases have stabilized and sales volumes are consistent with traditional levels, UNIFIhas historically been successful in implementing price adjustments within one to two fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its index priced customers and withintwo fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its non-index priced customers.Nylon SegmentThe components of Segment Profit, each component as a percentage of net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior period amounts for the NylonSegment are as follows: Fiscal 2019 % Change Fiscal 2018 % Change Fiscal 2017 Net sales $98,127 (4.4) $102,639 (8.9) $112,704 Cost of sales 90,231 (2.1) 92,155 (8.4) 100,633 Gross profit 7,896 (24.7) 10,484

decrease in net sales for the Nylon Segment from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to (i) continued demand declines in certain nylon product categoriesalong with a significant customer shifting a portion of its supply chain from the NACA region and (ii) a lower-priced sales mix, partially offset by the additional week of sales infiscal 2019.The decrease in net sales for the Nylon Segment from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to (i) lower sales volumes as a result of continued soft domesticmarket conditions in which nylon socks, ladies’ hosiery and intimates have experienced demand declines and (ii) a lower-priced sales mix.The changes in Segment Profit for the Nylon Segment are as follows: Segment Profit for fiscal 2017 $14,196 Decrease in

fiscal 2019. The increase in net sales for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to (i) higher sales volumes due to growth in our REPREVE® portfolio and(ii) favorable foreign currency translation effects as the RMB strengthened against the USD during fiscal 2018, partially offset by a decrease in average selling price due to agreater mix of lower-priced Chip and staple fiber product sales.The RMB weighted average exchange rate was 6.82 RMB/USD, 6.50 RMB/USD and 6.81 RMB/USD for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.The changes in Segment Profit for the Asia Segment are as follows: Segment Profit for fiscal 2017 $15,983 Increase in sales volumes 3,932 Favorable foreign currency translation effects 741 Decrease in underlying margins (1,933)Technologies expense charged by Polyester Segment beginning January 1, 2018 (2,103)Segment Profit for fiscal 2018 $16,620 Segment Profit for fiscal 2018 $16,620 Comparatively incremental technologies expense charged by Polyester Segment (3,106)Unfavorable foreign currency translation effects (964)Decrease in underlying margins (730)Increase in sales volumes 3,880 Segment Profit for fiscal 2019 $15,70033  The decrease in Segment Profit for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to (i) the technologies expense charged by the PolyesterSegment, (ii) unfavorable foreign currency translation effects as the RMB weakened against the USD during fiscal 2019, (iii) margin pressure from higher raw material costs and(iv) a greater mix of lower-priced product sales, partially offset by the increase in sales volumes described in the net sales analysis above.The increase in Segment Profit for the Asia Segment from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to (i) the increase in sales volumes and (ii) favorable foreigncurrency translation effects as the RMB strengthened against the USD during fiscal 2018, partially offset by a less profitable sales mix and the technologies expense chargedby the Polyester Segment.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesUNIFI’s primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and stock repurchases. UNIFI’s primary sources of capital are cash generatedfrom operations and borrowings available under the ABL Revolver (as defined below) of its credit facility. For fiscal 2019, cash generated from operations was $7,284, and atJune 30, 2019, excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $61,501. As further described under “Cash Provided by Operating Activities” below, the lower total of cashprovided by operating activities for fiscal 2019 was attributable to several factors, including an increase in inventories due to domestic production rates that outpaced domesticsales during fiscal 2019, along with weaker cash-based earnings.As of June 30, 2019, all of UNIFI’s $128,018 of debt obligations were guaranteed by certain of its domestic operating subsidiaries, while nearly all of UNIFI’s cash and cashequivalents were held by its foreign subsidiaries. Cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries may not be presently available to fund UNIFI’s domestic capitalrequirements, including its domestic debt obligations. UNIFI employs a variety of strategies to ensure that its worldwide cash is available in the locations where it is needed. Thefollowing table presents a summary of cash and cash equivalents, borrowings available under financing arrangements, liquidity, working capital and total debt obligations as ofJune 30, 2019 for domestic operations compared to foreign operations: Domestic Foreign Total Cash and cash equivalents $11 $22,217 $22,228 Borrowings available under financing arrangements 61,501 — 61,501 Liquidity $61,512 $22,217 $83,729 Working capital $90,099 $100,790 $190,889 Total debt obligations $128,018 $— $128,018As of June 30, 2019, U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes were not provided for on a cumulative total of approximately $131,386 of undistributed earnings of UNIFI’sforeign subsidiaries. UNIFI intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in its foreign subsidiaries. If at a later date, these earnings were to be repatriated to the U.S., UNIFIwould be required to accrue and pay state income and/or foreign local withholding taxes on these amounts. Determination of the amount of any unrecognized deferred taxliability on these undistributed earnings is not practicable. UNIFI will continue to assess the existing circumstances, including any changes in tax laws, and reevaluate thenecessity for any deferred tax liability. Debt ObligationsFollowing is a summary of UNIFI’s debt obligations: Weighted Average Scheduled Interest Rate as of Principal Amounts as of Maturity Date June 30, 2019 June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 ABL Revolver December 2023 3.7% $19,400 $28,100 ABL Term Loan (1) December 2023 3.3% 97,500 85,000 Capital lease obligations (2) 3.9% 11,118 18,107 Total debt 128,018 131,207 Current ABL Term Loan (10,000) (10,000)Current portion of capital lease obligations (5,519) (6,996)Unamortized debt issuance costs (958) (658)Total long-term debt $111,541 $113,553 (1)Includes the effects of interest rate swaps.(2)Scheduled maturity dates for capital lease obligations range from August 2019 to November 2027.34  ABL FacilityOn December 18, 2018, Unifi, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Second Amendment toAmended and Restated Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “2018 Amendment”). The 2018 Amendment amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated asof March 26, 2015, by and among Unifi, Inc. and a syndicate of lenders, as previously amended (as further amended by the 2018 Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). TheCredit Agreement provides for a $200,000 senior secured credit facility (the “ABL Facility”), including a $100,000 revolving credit facility (the “ABL Revolver”) and a term loanthat can be reset up to a maximum amount of $100,000, once per fiscal year, if certain conditions are met (the “ABL Term Loan”). The ABL Facility has a maturity date ofDecember 18, 2023.The 2018 Amendment made the following changes to the Credit Agreement, among others: (i) extended the maturity date from March 26, 2020 to December 18, 2023 and (ii)decreased the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement) pricing structure for Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and LIBOR Rate Loans (asdefined in the Credit Agreement) by 25 basis points. In addition, in connection with the 2018 Amendment, the principal amount of the ABL Term Loan was reset from $80,000 to$100,000. Net proceeds from the ABL Term Loan reset were used to pay down the amount outstanding on the ABL Revolver. Additionally, the 2018 Amendment resulted in aloss on extinguishment of debt of $131 in connection with the write-off of certain unamortized debt issuance costs.UNIFI currently utilizes USD LIBOR Rate Loans for variable-rate borrowings under the ABL Facility and is party to London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”)-based interest rateswaps. Management recognizes the potential termination of LIBOR as a benchmark rate. The 2018 Amendment includes fallback language to allow for a conversion of LIBORRate Loans to Base Rate Loans or a mutually agreed upon alternative rate of interest, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Management will continue to monitor thepotential termination of LIBOR and the potential impact on UNIFI’s operations. However, management does not expect (i) significant efforts are necessary to accommodate atermination of LIBOR or (ii) a significant impact to UNIFI’s operations upon a termination of LIBOR.The ABL Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all owned property and assets (together with all proceeds and products) of Unifi, Inc.,Unifi Manufacturing, Inc. and certain subsidiary guarantors (collectively, the “Loan Parties”). It is also secured by a first-priority security interest in all (or 65% in the case ofUNIFI’s first-tier controlled foreign subsidiary, as required by the lenders) of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) each of the Loan Parties (other than Unifi, Inc.) andcertain subsidiaries of the Loan Parties, together with all proceeds and products thereof.If excess availability under the ABL Revolver falls below the defined Trigger Level (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a financial covenant requiring the Loan Parties tomaintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a quarterly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.00 becomes effective. The Trigger Level as of June 30, 2019 was $24,688. In addition, the ABLFacility contains restrictions on particular payments and investments, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases. Subject to specificprovisions, the ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date, at UNIFI’s discretion.ABL Facility borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.25% to 1.75%, or the Base Rate (as defined below) plus an applicable margin of 0.25% to 0.75%,with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The applicable margin is based on (i) the excess availability under the ABL Revolver and (ii) the consolidated leverageratio, calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Base Rate means the greater of (a) the prime lending rate as publicly announced from time to time by Wells FargoBank, National Association, (b) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.5% and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%. UNIFI’s ability to borrow under the ABLRevolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. There isalso a monthly unused line fee under the ABL Revolver of 0.25%.As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI was in compliance with all financial covenants in the Credit Agreement and the excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $61,501. At June 30,2019, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.22 to 1.00 and UNIFI had $400 of standby letters of credit, none of which had been drawn upon. Management maintains thecapability to quickly and easily improve the fixed charge coverage ratio utilizing existing cash and cash equivalents.Capital Lease ObligationsThere were no significant capital leases established in fiscal 2019 or 2018. During fiscal 2017, UNIFI recorded capital leases with an aggregate present value of $14,070 and aweighted average interest rate of 3.9%.Scheduled Debt MaturitiesThe following table presents the scheduled maturities of UNIFI’s outstanding debt obligations for the following five fiscal years and thereafter: Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2021 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2024 Thereafter ABL Revolver $— $— $— $— $19,400 $— ABL Term Loan 10,000 10,000 10,000 10,000 57,500 — Capital lease obligations 5,519 2,623 2,417 90 95 374 Total $15,519 $12,623 $12,417 $10,090 $76,995 $37435  Further discussion of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the Company’s existing indebtedness is outlined in Note 13, “Long-Term Debt,” to theaccompanying consolidated financial statements.Working CapitalThe following table presents the components of working capital and the reconciliation from working capital to Adjusted Working Capital: Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Cash and cash equivalents $22,228 $44,890 Receivables, net 88,884 86,273 Inventories 133,781 126,311 Income tax receivable 4,373 10,291 Other current assets 16,356 6,529 Accounts payable (41,796) (48,970)Accrued expenses (16,849) (17,720)Other current liabilities (16,088) (18,313)Working capital $190,889 $189,291 Less: Cash and cash equivalents (22,228) (44,890)Less: Income tax receivable (4,373) (10,291)Less: Other current liabilities 16,088 18,313 Adjusted Working Capital $180,376 $152,423 Working capital increased from $189,291 as of June 24, 2018 to $190,889 as of June 30, 2019, while Adjusted Working Capital increased from $152,423 to $180,376. Workingcapital and Adjusted Working Capital are within the range of management’s expectations based on the composition of the underlying business and global structure. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was driven by the utilization of cash to retire ABL Revolver debt in advance of UNIFI’s entering into the 2018 Amendment asdescribed above. The increase in receivables, net was primarily attributable to an increase in days’ sales outstanding due to a general increase in customer payment terms.The increase in inventories was attributable to domestic finished goods production outpacing domestic sales and higher raw material costs. The decrease in income taxreceivable reflects the receipt of associated refunds. The increase in other current assets reflects the addition of contract assets that relate to products on hand that have beenreflected in revenue but not yet shipped to the associated customer (in connection with the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance). The decrease in accountspayable primarily reflects weaker seasonal demand in fiscal 2019, partially offset by more favorable vendor payment terms. The decrease in accrued expenses was primarilyattributable to the fiscal 2019 payment of variable compensation earned in fiscal 2018 and comparatively lower accrued variable compensation for fiscal 2019, partially offset bythe addition of severance accruals in fiscal 2019. The change in other current liabilities primarily reflects a decrease in the current portion of capital lease obligations inconnection with routine payments.Capital ProjectsIn fiscal 2019, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital projects, which included (i) making further improvements in production capabilities and technology enhancements inthe Americas and (ii) annual maintenance capital expenditures.In fiscal 2018, we invested approximately $25,000 in capital projects, which included (i) completing the fourth production line in the REPREVE® Recycling Center, (ii) makingfurther improvements in production capabilities and technology enhancements in the Americas and (iii) annual maintenance capital expenditures.In fiscal 2017, we invested approximately $40,000 in capital projects (including amounts funded by a construction financing arrangement). The most significant investment wasthe completion of our REPREVE® Bottle Processing Center at UNIFI’s existing facility in Reidsville, North Carolina. UNIFI also made investments towards (i) completing thefourth production line in the REPREVE® Recycling Center, (ii) installing a bi-component spinning line to produce high-value yarns and (iii) additional machinery modifications tomeet the ever-changing demands of the textile market, in support of the PVA product portfolio. These investments were primarily for the Polyester Segment.In fiscal 2020, UNIFI expects to invest an additional $25,000 in capital projects, which we expect to include (i) making further improvements in production capabilities andtechnology enhancements in the Americas, including the purchase and installation of new eAFK Evo texturing machines, and (ii) annual maintenance capitalexpenditures. UNIFI will seek to ensure maintenance capital expenditures are sufficient to allow continued production at high efficiencies.The total amount ultimately invested for fiscal 2020 could be more or less than the currently estimated amount depending on the timing and scale of contemplated initiatives, andis expected to be funded by a combination of cash from operations and borrowings under the ABL Revolver. UNIFI expects the recent capital projects to provide benefits tofuture profitability. The additional assets from these capital projects consist primarily of machinery and equipment and building additions.36  Share Repurchase ProgramOn April 23, 2014, UNIFI announced that the Board had approved the 2014 SRP under which UNIFI was authorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. ThroughOctober 31, 2018 (the date the 2014 SRP was terminated, as noted below), UNIFI had repurchased a total of 806 shares, at an average price of $27.79 (for a total of $22,409,inclusive of commission costs), pursuant to the 2014 SRP.On October 31, 2018, UNIFI announced that the Board had terminated the 2014 SRP and approved the 2018 SRP under which UNIFI is authorized to acquire up to $50,000 ofits common stock. Under the 2018 SRP, purchases will be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, through private transactions or block trades.The timing and amount of repurchases will depend on market conditions, share price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The share repurchase authorization isdiscretionary and has no expiration date. As of June 30, 2019, $50,000 remained available for repurchase under the 2018 SRP. UNIFI will continue to evaluate opportunities touse excess cash flows from operations or existing borrowings to repurchase additional stock, while maintaining sufficient liquidity to support its operational needs and to fundfuture strategic growth opportunities.Liquidity SummaryUNIFI has met its historical liquidity requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements and other operating needs from its cash flows fromoperations and available borrowings. UNIFI believes that its existing cash balances, cash provided by operating activities, and borrowings available under the ABL Revolver willenable UNIFI to comply with the terms of its indebtedness and meet its foreseeable liquidity requirements. Domestically, UNIFI’s cash balances, cash provided by operatingactivities, and borrowings available under the ABL Revolver continue to be sufficient to fund UNIFI’s domestic operating activities as well as cash commitments for its investingand financing activities. For its existing foreign operations, UNIFI expects its existing cash balances and cash provided by operating activities will provide the needed liquidity tofund its foreign operating activities and any foreign investing activities, such as future capital expenditures. However, expansion of our foreign operations may require cashsourced from our domestic subsidiaries.Cash Provided by Operating ActivitiesThe significant components of net cash provided by operating activities are summarized below. UNIFI analyzes net cash provided by operating activities utilizing the majorcomponents of the statements of cash flows prepared under the indirect method. Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Fiscal 2017 Net income including non-controlling interest $2,456 $31,702 $32,377 Depreciation and amortization expense 23,003 22,585 20,368 Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates (3,968) (5,787) (4,230)Loss on sale of business — — 1,662 Non-cash compensation expense 3,258 5,823 2,983 Deferred income taxes 423 (5,797) 6,886 Subtotal 25,172 48,526 60,046 Distributions received from unconsolidated affiliates 2,647 12,236 2,322 Change in inventories (15,838) (18,198) (8,519)Other changes in assets and liabilities (4,697) (5,229) (7,787)Net cash provided by operating activities $7,284 $37,335 $46,062Fiscal 2019 Compared to Fiscal 2018The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019 was primarily due to (i) the significant increase in inventories and other current assetsas shown and discussed above under “Working Capital,” (ii) approximately $9,600 less in dividends from unconsolidated affiliates and (iii) lower Adjusted EBITDA (a proxy forcash-based earnings). The decrease was partially offset by approximately $7,100 of net tax refunds received in fiscal 2019.Fiscal 2018 Compared to Fiscal 2017The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily due to the adverse impact on gross profit and working capital of higherraw material costs and an increase in SG&A expenses. However, UNIFI received $9,236 in distributions from PAL in fiscal 2018, a significant increase from fiscal 2017.Cash Used in Investing Activities and (Used In) Provided by Financing ActivitiesFiscal 2019UNIFI utilized $24,936 for net investing activities and utilized $4,626 for net financing activities during fiscal 2019. Significant investing activities included $24,871 for capitalexpenditures, which primarily relate to ongoing maintenance capital expenditures, along with production capabilities and technology enhancements in the Americas. Significantfinancing activities included $3,800 of net borrowings against the ABL Facility to fund capital expenditure activities and $7,019 for payments on capital lease obligations.37  Fiscal 2018UNIFI utilized $26,875 for net investing activities and was provided $1,303 from net financing activities during fiscal 2018. Significant investing activities included $25,029 forcapital expenditures, which primarily relate to the completion of the fourth production line in the REPREVE® Recycling Center, along with other capital expenditures to improveUNIFI’s manufacturing flexibility and capability to produce PVA products in the Americas. Significant financing activities included $8,800 of net borrowings against the ABLFacility and $7,060 for payments on capital lease obligations.Fiscal 2017UNIFI utilized $33,382 for net investing activities and was provided $6,504 from net financing activities during fiscal 2017. Significant investing activities included $33,190 forcapital expenditures, which primarily relate to the addition of machinery, equipment and infrastructure for UNIFI’s REPREVE® Bottle Processing Center at our existing facility inReidsville, North Carolina, which started production in August 2016, along with other capital expenditures to improve UNIFI’s manufacturing flexibility and capability to producePVA products in the Americas and to increase the capacity of our REPREVE® Recycling Center. Significant financing activities included $7,850 of net borrowings against theABL Facility and $4,700 for payments on capital lease obligations, partially offset by $2,787 of proceeds from stock option exercises.Contractual ObligationsAs of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s contractual obligations consisted of the following: Cash Payments Due By Period Description of Commitment Total Less Than1 Year 1-3 Years 3-5 Years More Than5 Years ABL Revolver $19,400 $— $— $19,400 $— ABL Term Loan 97,500 10,000 20,000 67,500 — Capital lease obligations 11,118 5,519 5,040 185 374 Other long-term obligations (1) 3,970 702 142 65 3,061 Subtotal $131,988 $16,221 $25,182 $87,150 $3,435 Interest on long-term debt and other obligations (2) 16,711 4,361 7,560 4,758 32 Operating leases 9,329 3,164 4,223 1,633 309 Capital purchase obligations (3) 18,842 8,008 10,834 — — Purchase obligations (4) 37,578 13,927 18,769 4,601 281 Total cash payments by period $214,448 $45,681 $66,568 $98,142 $4,057 (1)Other long-term obligations does not include an estimate of the timing of potential tax payments related to uncertain tax positions; therefore, $1,043 has been excludedfrom the table above. Other long-term obligations includes a post-employment plan liability for which the $2,695 non-current portion of cash payments is reflectedbeyond five years.(2)Interest payments on variable rate debt instruments are calculated for future periods using interest rates and terms in effect at June 30, 2019.(3)Capital purchase obligations relate to contracts with vendors for the construction or purchase of assets.(4)Purchase obligations primarily consist of utility, software and other service agreements.For purposes of the above table, purchase obligations are defined as agreements that are enforceable and legally binding and that specify all significant terms, including fixed orminimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction.As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s open non-capital purchase orders totaled approximately $57,670 and were expected to be settled in fiscal 2020. These open purchase orders arein the ordinary course of business for the procurement of (i) raw materials used in the production of inventory, (ii) certain consumables and outsourced services used inUNIFI’s manufacturing processes and (iii) selected finished goods for resale sourced from third-party suppliers.As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had $400 of standby letters of credit, none of which had been drawn upon.Recent Accounting PronouncementsIssued and Pending AdoptionIn February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new guidanceis intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing keyinformation about leasing arrangements. The new lease guidance is effective for UNIFI’s fiscal 2020.Upon adoption, UNIFI expects to make an accounting policy election to not reflect leases with an initial term of 12 months or less in the consolidated balance sheets,recognizing those respective lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. UNIFI also plans to elect thepackage of transition practical expedients which would allow UNIFI to carry forward prior conclusions related to: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are leases orcontain38  leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases. UNIFI does not expect to elect the hindsight practicalexpedient. The new lease guidance requires a modified retrospective transition approach and provides an optional transition method to either (a) record current existing leasesas of the effective date or (b) record leases existing as of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. UNIFI expects to adopt the new lease guidanceutilizing the optional modified retrospective transition method, applied at the date of adoption, recording existing leases as of the effective date, July 1, 2019. Under this method,no adjustment to comparative prior periods is required and UNIFI expects no adjustment will be necessary to the opening retained earnings balance for fiscal 2020. Accordingly,financial statement information and disclosures required under the new lease guidance will not be provided for dates and periods prior to July 1, 2019.UNIFI continues to assess the effect the guidance will have on its existing accounting policies and the consolidated financial statements, and upon adoption, expects there willbe approximately a 2% increase in total assets on the consolidated balance sheets due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities.Relating to the transition to ASU No. 2016-02, PAL expects to adopt the new lease guidance in its fiscal 2020. PAL is currently evaluating the impact of the new lease guidance.Recently AdoptedIn May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Subsequent ASUs were issued to provide clarity and to defer theeffective date of the new guidance. The new revenue recognition guidance eliminates the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAPand replaces it with a principles-based approach. Upon adoption in fiscal 2019, UNIFI determined that the impact of the new revenue recognition guidance was immaterial. Accordingly, UNIFI utilized the modified retrospectivemethod of adoption and recorded the impact of open contracts as of June 24, 2018 as an adjustment to the opening balance of fiscal 2019 retained earnings, and prior periodbalances were not adjusted. See Note 5, “Revenue Recognition,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail regarding adoption and additionaldisclosures.In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory, which modifies the subsequent measurement of inventories recorded under a first-in, first-out or average costmethod. Under the new standard, such inventories are required to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The new standard was effective for UNIFI’s fiscal2018, with prospective application. UNIFI’s prior principles for inventory measurement included consideration of net realizable value and, therefore, the adoption of the newstandard had no significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements.In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. TheASU includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including the accounting and classification of the respectiveincome tax impacts, forfeitures and statutory withholding requirements. UNIFI adopted the ASU in fiscal 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption resulted in a $230 decreaseto the provision for income taxes for excess tax benefits and an immaterial increase in potential dilutive weighted average shares for fiscal 2018. UNIFI recognizes forfeituresas they occur, and there was no corresponding retrospective adjustment to retained earnings. Additionally, UNIFI presented the change in classification of excess tax benefitsin the consolidated statements of cash flows on a prospective basis.In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU is intended toimprove and simplify the rules around hedge accounting, reduce complexity for certain hedging concepts and better align financial reporting with an entity’s risk managementactivities. UNIFI early adopted ASU No. 2017-12 in fiscal 2018. Adoption will allow UNIFI to (i) eliminate consideration for hedge ineffectiveness, (ii) utilize a qualitativeeffectiveness assessment prospectively and (iii) contemplate hedge accounting for additional risk management activities allowed by the simplified guidance. Due to a lack ofcomplexity in UNIFI’s recent risk management activities, there were no applicable cumulative adjustments to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements in connection withadoption of the ASU.In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU is intended to clarify the definition ofa business and to reduce the complexity of evaluating transactions that are more akin to asset acquisitions. UNIFI early adopted ASU No. 2017-01 in fiscal 2018 and futuretransactions are evaluated under the new guidance. There were no adjustments to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements required in connection with the adoption of theASU. In fiscal 2018, an asset purchase agreement was evaluated under the ASU and the associated transaction was recorded as an asset acquisition.There have been no other newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidatedfinancial statements.Off-Balance Sheet ArrangementsUNIFI is not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that have had, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on UNIFI’s financial condition,results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.39  Critical Accounting PoliciesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financialstatements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s most critical accounting policies as those involving accounting estimates that require management tomake assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time and where different reasonable estimates or changes in the accounting estimate from quarter to quartercould materially impact the presentation of the financial statements. The following discussion provides further information about accounting policies critical to UNIFI and shouldbe read in conjunction with Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Receivables ReservesAn allowance for losses is provided for known and potential losses arising from yarn quality claims and for amounts owed by customers. Reserves for yarn quality claims arebased on historical claim experience and known pending claims. The collectability of accounts receivable is based on a combination of factors, including the aging of accounts,historical write off experience, present economic conditions such as customer bankruptcy filings, and the financial health of specific customers and market sectors. Sincelosses depend to a large degree on future economic conditions and the health of the textile industry, a significant level of judgment is required to arrive at the allowance foruncollectible accounts. This allowance is established based on percentages applied to accounts aged for set periods of time, supplemented by reserves for individual customeraccounts where collection is no longer certain. Establishing reserves for yarn claims and uncollectible accounts requires management judgment and estimates. UNIFI doesnot believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates and assumptions it uses to assess the allowance for losses. However, certainunexpected events such as a customer bankruptcy filing could have a material impact on UNIFI’s results of operations. UNIFI has not made any material changes to themethodology used in establishing its accounts receivable loss reserves during the past three fiscal years. A plus or minus 10% change in the aged accounts receivablereserve percentages would not have been material to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements for the past three fiscal years.Inventory ReservesInventory reserves are established based on many factors, including historical recovery rates, the aging of inventories on-hand, inventory movement and expected netrealizable value of specific products, and current economic conditions. Specific reserves are established based on a determination of the obsolescence of the inventory andwhether the inventory value exceeds amounts to be recovered through expected sales prices less selling costs. Estimating sales prices and evaluating the condition of theinventories require judgment and estimates, which may impact the ending inventory valuation and gross margins. UNIFI uses current and historical knowledge to recordreasonable estimates of its markdown percentages and expected sales prices. UNIFI believes it is unlikely that differences in actual demand or selling prices from thoseprojected by management would have a material impact on UNIFI’s financial condition or results of operations. UNIFI has not made any material changes to the methodologyused in establishing its inventory reserves during the past three fiscal years. A plus or minus 10% change in its aged inventory reserves would not have been material toUNIFI’s consolidated financial statements for the past three fiscal years.Impairment of Long-Lived AssetsLong-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. For assets held forsale, an impairment charge is recognized if the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value less costs to sell. Estimates are required to determine the fair value, thedisposal costs and the time period to dispose of the assets. Such estimates are critical in determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount ofsuch charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary. For assets held and used, impairment may occur if projected undiscounted cash flows are not adequate tocover the carrying value of the assets. In such cases, additional analysis is conducted to determine the amount of loss to be recognized, and the impairment loss is determinedas the amount the carrying value of the asset or asset group exceeds the estimated fair value, measured by future discounted cash flows. The analysis requires estimates ofthe amount and timing of projected cash flows and, where applicable, judgment associated with, among other factors, the appropriate discount rate. Such estimates are criticalin determining whether any impairment charge should be recorded and the amount of such charge if an impairment loss is deemed to be necessary. UNIFI’s judgmentregarding the existence of circumstances that indicate the potential impairment of an asset’s carrying value is based on several factors, including, but not limited to, changes inbusiness environment, a decline in operating cash flows or a decision to close a manufacturing facility. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions,including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions.40  Impairment of Investments in Unconsolidated AffiliatesUNIFI evaluates its investments in unconsolidated affiliates whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. UNIFIevaluates the ability of an affiliate to generate sufficient earnings and cash flows to justify its carrying value. Reductions in an affiliate’s cash flows that are other than temporaryand indicative of a loss of investment value are assessed for impairment purposes. For fiscal 2019, UNIFI determined there were no other-than-temporary impairments relatedto the carrying value of its investments in unconsolidated affiliates.Valuation Allowance for Deferred Tax AssetsUNIFI currently has a valuation allowance against certain of its deferred tax assets in the U.S. and foreign subsidiaries due to negative evidence concerning the realization ofthose deferred tax assets. The deferred tax valuation allowance at June 30, 2019 was $26,020.In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate character during the periods in which thosetemporary differences reverse. Management considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback periods, projected future taxableincome and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. UNIFI reviews its estimates of future taxable income on a quarterly basis to assess if the need for a valuationallowance exists. UNIFI continually evaluates both positive and negative evidence to determine whether and when the valuation allowance, or a portion thereof, should bereleased. A release of the valuation allowance could have a material effect on earnings in the period of release. Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RiskUNIFI is exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and raw material and commodity costs, which mayadversely affect its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. UNIFI does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes, nor is it a party to anyleveraged financial instruments.Interest Rate RiskUNIFI is exposed to interest rate risk through its borrowing activities. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had borrowings under its ABL Revolver and ABL Term Loan that totaled$116,900 and contain variable rates of interest; however, UNIFI hedges a significant portion of such interest rate variability using interest rate swaps. After considering thevariable rate debt obligations that have been hedged and UNIFI’s outstanding debt obligations with fixed rates of interest, UNIFI’s sensitivity analysis indicates that a 50-basispoint increase in LIBOR as of June 30, 2019 would result in an increase in annual interest expense of less than $300.Foreign Currency Exchange Rate RiskUNIFI conducts its business in various foreign countries and in various foreign currencies. Each of UNIFI’s subsidiaries may enter into transactions (sales, purchases, fixedpurchase commitments, etc.) that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiary’s functional currency and thereby expose UNIFI to foreign currency exchange raterisk. UNIFI may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge this exposure. UNIFI may also enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its exposure forcertain equipment or inventory purchase commitments. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had no outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.A significant portion of raw materials purchased by UNIFI’s Brazilian subsidiary are denominated in USDs, requiring UNIFI to regularly exchange BRL. A significant portion ofsales and asset balances for our Asian subsidiaries are denominated in USDs. During recent fiscal years, UNIFI was negatively impacted by a devaluation of the BRL. Also,the RMB experienced fluctuations in value throughout fiscal 2019 and 2018, which generated foreign currency translation losses in certain fiscal quarters. Discussion andanalysis surrounding the impact of fluctuations of the BRL and the RMB on UNIFI’s results of operations are included above in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysisof Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s subsidiaries outside the U.S., whose functional currency is other than the USD, held approximately 17.6% of UNIFI’s consolidated total assets.UNIFI does not enter into foreign currency derivatives to hedge its net investment in its foreign operations.As of June 30, 2019, $18,579, or 83.6%, of UNIFI’s cash and cash equivalents were held outside the U.S., of which $11,160 was held in USDs, $381 was held in RMB and$6,427 was held in BRL.More information regarding UNIFI’s derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2019 is provided in Note 19, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Non-Financial Assetsand Liabilities,” to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.41  Raw Material and Commodity Cost RisksA significant portion of UNIFI’s raw material and energy costs are derived from petroleum-based chemicals. The prices for petroleum and petroleum-related products andenergy costs are volatile and dependent on global supply and demand dynamics, including certain geo-political risks. A sudden rise in the price of petroleum and petroleum-based products could have a material impact on UNIFI’s profitability. UNIFI does not use financial instruments to hedge its exposure to changes in these costs. The costs ofthe primary raw materials that UNIFI uses throughout all of its operations are generally based on USD pricing, and such materials are purchased at market or at fixed pricesthat are established with individual vendors as part of the purchasing process for quantities expected to be consumed in the ordinary course of business. UNIFI managesfluctuations in the cost of raw materials primarily by making corresponding adjustments to the prices charged to its customers. Certain customers are subject to an index-based pricing model in which UNIFI’s prices are adjusted based on the change in the cost of raw materials in the prior quarter. Pricing adjustments for other customers must benegotiated independently. UNIFI attempts to pass on to its customers increases in raw material costs but due to market pressures, this is not always possible. When priceincreases can be implemented, there is typically a time lag that adversely affects UNIFI and its margins during one or more quarters. In ordinary market conditions in which rawmaterial price increases have stabilized and sales volumes are consistent with traditional levels, UNIFI has historically been successful in implementing price adjustments withinone to two fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its index priced customers and within two fiscal quarters of the raw material price increase for its non-indexpriced customers.During fiscal 2018, UNIFI experienced elevated polyester raw material costs in connection with heightened petroleum prices, and these costs continued to increase during thefirst four months of fiscal 2019 due to a tighter global supply of polyester and increased demand for polyester feedstock. In combination with a difficult operating environmentcharacterized by lower textured yarn volumes in the domestic market, where sufficient corresponding price increases were difficult to achieve, these higher costs drove adecline in gross profit for the first six months of fiscal 2019.Other RisksUNIFI is also exposed to political risk, including changing laws and regulations governing international trade, such as quotas, tariffs and tax laws. The degree of impact and thefrequency of these events cannot be predicted. Item 8.Financial Statements and Supplementary DataOur consolidated financial statements and the related notes begin on page F-i herein. Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial DisclosureNone. Item 9A.Controls and ProceduresEvaluation of Disclosure Controls and ProceduresAs of June 30, 2019, an evaluation of the effectiveness of UNIFI’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under theExchange Act) was performed under the supervision and with the participation of UNIFI’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer.Based on that evaluation, UNIFI’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that UNIFI’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure thatinformation required to be disclosed by UNIFI in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the timeperiods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by UNIFI in the reports UNIFI files or submits under the Exchange Act isaccumulated and communicated to UNIFI’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regardingrequired disclosure.Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial ReportingManagement of UNIFI is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgatedunder the Exchange Act). UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reportingand the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies andprocedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of UNIFI; (ii)provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts andexpenditures of UNIFI are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of UNIFI; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regardingprevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of UNIFI’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to futureperiods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures maydeteriorate.42  Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of UNIFI’s internalcontrol over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of SponsoringOrganizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, management concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting waseffective based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013).Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting FirmThe effectiveness of UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019 has been audited by KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), an independent registered publicaccounting firm. KPMG’s report, which appears in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of UNIFI’sinternal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019.Changes in Internal Control Over Financial ReportingDuring UNIFI’s fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, there has been no change in UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely tomaterially affect, UNIFI’s internal control over financial reporting. Item 9B.Other InformationNone.43  PART III Item 10.Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate GovernanceUNIFI will file with the SEC a definitive proxy statement for the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Proxy Statement”) no later than 120 days after the closeof fiscal 2019. The information required by this item with respect to our executive officers appears in Part I of this Annual Report under the heading “Information about ourExecutive Officers.” The other information required by this item is furnished by incorporation by reference to the information under the headings “Election of Directors,”“Corporate Governance” and “Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports” in the Proxy Statement. We have adopted a written Code of Ethics for Senior Financial and Executive Officers (the “Code of Ethics”), which is intended to qualify as a “code of ethics” within themeaning of Item 406 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance aboutwhether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining anunderstanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectivenessof internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe thatour audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial ReportingA company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation offinancial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes thosepolicies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets ofthe company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generallyaccepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of thecompany; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that couldhave a material effect on the financial statements.Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to futureperiods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures maydeteriorate./s/ KPMG LLPGreensboro, North CarolinaAugust 29, 2019 F-2 CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS(In thousands, except share and per share amounts) June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents $22,228 $44,890 Receivables, net 88,884 86,273 Inventories 133,781 126,311 Income taxes receivable 4,373 10,291 Other current assets 16,356 6,529 Total current assets 265,622 274,294 Property, plant and equipment, net 206,787 205,516 Deferred income taxes 2,581 3,288 Intangible assets, net 2,170 2,990 Investments in unconsolidated affiliates 114,320 112,639 Other non-current assets 671 3,080 Total assets $592,151 $601,807 LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Accounts payable $41,796 $48,970 Accrued expenses 16,849 17,720 Income taxes payable 569 1,317 Current portion of long-term debt 15,519 16,996 Total current liabilities 74,733 85,003 Long-term debt 111,541 113,553 Other long-term liabilities 6,185 5,337 Income taxes payable — 470 Deferred income taxes 6,847 7,663 Total liabilities 199,306 212,026 Commitments and contingencies Common stock, $0.10 par value (500,000,000 shares authorized; 18,462,296 and 18,352,824 shares issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2019 and June 24, 2018, respectively) 1,846 1,835 Capital in excess of par value 59,560 56,726 Retained earnings 374,668 371,753 Accumulated other comprehensive loss (43,229) (40,533)Total Unifi, Inc. shareholders’ equity 392,845 389,781 Non-controlling interest — — Total shareholders’ equity 392,845 389,781 Total liabilities and shareholders’ equity $592,151 $601,807 See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements.

F-7Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. BackgroundOverviewUnifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, “UNIFI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), is a multi-national company that manufacturesand sells innovative recycled and synthetic products made from polyester and nylon primarily to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers (UNIFI’s direct customers)that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets (UNIFI’s indirect customers). We refer to theseindirect customers as “brand partners.” Polyester yarns include partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solution and package dyed, twisted, beamed and draw wound yarns,and each is available in virgin or recycled varieties. Recycled solutions, made from both pre-consumer and post-consumer waste, include plastic bottle flake (“Flake”) andpolyester polymer beads (“Chip”). Nylon yarns include virgin or recycled textured, solution dyed and spandex covered yarns.UNIFI maintains one of the textile industry’s most comprehensive product offerings that include a range of specialized, premium value-added (“PVA”) and commodity solutions,with principal geographic markets in the Americas, Asia and Europe.UNIFI has direct manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures with operations in Israel, Mexico and the United States (“U.S.”), the most significantof which is a 34% non-controlling partnership interest in Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”), a significant unconsolidated affiliate that produces cotton and synthetic yarns for sale tothe global textile industry and apparel market. All dollar amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands (000s), unless otherwise noted.Fiscal YearThe fiscal year for Unifi, Inc., its domestic subsidiaries and its subsidiary in El Salvador ends on the Sunday in June or July nearest June 30 of each year. During fiscal 2019,Unifi, Inc. changed its fiscal year end from the last Sunday in June to the Sunday in June or July nearest June 30 of each year.Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 ended on June 30, 2019, June 24, 2018 and June 25, 2017, respectively. Unifi, Inc.’s remaining material operating subsidiaries’ fiscalyears end on June 30. For fiscal 2018 and 2017, there were no significant transactions or events that occurred between Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal year end and such wholly ownedsubsidiaries’ subsequent fiscal year ends. Unifi, Inc.’s fiscal 2019 consisted of 53 weeks, while fiscal 2018 and 2017 each consisted of 52 weeks.ReclassificationsCertain reclassifications of prior fiscal years’ data have been made to conform to the current presentation. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesUNIFI follows U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The significant accounting policies described below, together with the other notes to the accompanyingconsolidated financial statements that follow, are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements.Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Unifi, Inc. and its subsidiaries in which it maintains a controlling financial interest. All accountbalances and transactions between Unifi, Inc. and the subsidiaries which it controls have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which UNIFI is able to exercise significantinfluence, but not control, are accounted for using the equity method. For transactions with entities accounted for under the equity method, any intercompany profits onamounts still remaining are eliminated. Amounts originating from any deferral of intercompany profits are recorded within the account balance to which the transactionspecifically relates (e.g., inventory). Only upon settlement of the intercompany transaction with a third party is the deferral of the intercompany profit recognized by UNIFI.Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assetsand liabilities, certain financial statement disclosures at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. UNIFI’sconsolidated financial statements include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Actual results may vary from these estimates. Theseestimates are reviewed periodically to determine if a change is required.F-8Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash equivalents are defined as highly liquid, short-term investments having an original maturity of three months or less. Book overdrafts, for which the bank has not advancedcash, if any, are reclassified to accounts payable and reflected as an offset thereto within the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows.ReceivablesReceivables are stated at their net realizable value. Allowances are provided for known and potential losses arising from quality claims and for amounts owed bycustomers. Reserves for quality claims are based on historical claim experience and known pending claims and are recorded as a reduction of net sales. The allowance foruncollectible accounts is recorded against operating income and reflects UNIFI’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio determined on thebasis of historical write off experience, aging of trade receivables, specific allowances for known troubled accounts and other currently available information. Customeraccounts are written off against the allowance for uncollectible accounts when they are no longer deemed to be collectible.InventoriesUNIFI’s inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with the cost for the majority of its inventory determined using the first-in, first-out method. Certainforeign inventories and limited categories of supplies are valued using the average cost method. UNIFI’s estimates for inventory reserves for obsolete, slow-moving or excessinventories are based upon many factors, including historical recovery rates, the aging of inventories on-hand, inventory turnover, the expected net realizable value of specificproducts, and current economic conditions.Debt Issuance CostsDebt issuance costs are recorded to long-term debt and amortized as additional interest expense following either the effective interest method or the straight-line method. In theevent of any prepayment of its debt obligations, UNIFI accelerates the recognition of a pro-rata amount of issuance costs and records an extinguishment of debt.Property, Plant and EquipmentProperty, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Plant and equipment under capital leases are stated at the present value ofminimum lease payments less accumulated amortization. Additions or improvements that substantially extend the useful life of a particular asset are capitalized. Depreciation iscalculated primarily utilizing the straight-line method over the following useful lives: Asset categories Useful lives in yearsLand improvements Five to TwentyBuildings and improvements Fifteen to FortyMachinery and equipment Two to Twenty-fiveComputer, software and office equipment Three to SevenInternal software development costs ThreeTransportation equipment Three to Fifteen Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease.Assets under capital leases are amortized in a manner consistent with UNIFI’s normal depreciation policy if ownership is transferred by the end of the lease or if there is abargain purchase option. If such ownership criteria are not met, amortization occurs over the shorter of the lease term or the asset’s useful life.UNIFI capitalizes its costs of developing internal software when the software is used as an integral part of its manufacturing or business processes and the technologicalfeasibility has been established. Internal software costs are amortized over a period of three years and, in accordance with the nature of the project, charged to cost of sales orselling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses.Fully depreciated assets are retained in cost and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are removed from service. In the case of disposals, asset costs and relatedaccumulated depreciation amounts are removed from the accounts, and the net amounts, less proceeds from disposal, are included in the determination of net income andpresented within other operating expense (income), net.Repair and maintenance costs related to PP&E, which do not significantly increase the useful life of an existing asset or do not significantly alter, modify or change thecapabilities or production capacity of an existing asset, are expensed as incurred.Interest is capitalized for capital projects requiring a construction period.F-9Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) PP&E and other long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale within one year are classified as held for sale and are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost tosell. Depreciation ceases for all assets classified as held for sale. Long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale are classified as held for use until they are disposedof and these assets are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value.Intangible AssetsFinite-lived intangible assets, such as customer lists, non-compete agreements, licenses, trademarks and patents, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. UNIFIperiodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Once these assets are fully amortized, they are removed from the accounts. These assets arereviewed for impairment or obsolescence whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangibleassets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. UNIFI has no intangibles with indefinite lives.Investments in Unconsolidated AffiliatesUNIFI evaluates its investments in unconsolidated affiliates for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not berecoverable.Derivative InstrumentsAll derivatives are carried on the balance sheet at fair value and are classified according to their asset or liability position and the expected timing of settlement. On the date thederivative contract is entered into, UNIFI may designate the derivative into one of the following categories: •Fair value hedge – a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a firm commitment. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated andqualifying as fair value hedges, as well as the offsetting gains and losses on the hedged items, are reported in income in the same period. •Cash flow hedge – a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability. Theeffective portion of gains and losses on cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, until the underlying transactions arerecognized in income. When the hedged item is realized, gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to current periodearnings on the same line item as the underlying transaction. •Net investment hedge – if a derivative is used as a foreign currency hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, its changes in fair value, to the extenteffective as a hedge, are recorded in foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive loss.Derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting are marked to market at the end of each period with the changes in fair value recognized in current periodearnings. Settlements of any fair value or cash flow derivative contracts are classified as cash flows from operating activities.Fair Value MeasurementsThe accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fairvalue. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principalmarket, or, if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (the exit price). Fair value is based on assumptions thatmarket participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority tounobservable inputs. UNIFI uses the following to measure fair value for its assets and liabilities: •Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. •Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either indirectly or directly. •Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.The classification of assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.F-10Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Income TaxesIncome taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded to recognize the expected future tax benefits or costs ofevents that have been, or will be, reported in different tax years for financial statement purposes than for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined basedon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which these items are expected toreverse. UNIFI reviews deferred tax assets to determine if it is more-likely-than-not they will be realized. If UNIFI determines it is not more-likely-than-not that a deferred taxasset will be realized, it records a valuation allowance to reverse the previously recognized benefit. Provision is made for taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiariesand related companies to the extent that such earnings are not deemed to be permanently invested.UNIFI recognizes tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions if it believes it is more-likely-than-not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at thelargest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. UNIFI accrues for other tax contingencies when it is probable that a liability to a taxing authority has beenincurred and the amount of the contingency can be reasonably estimated. Penalties and interest related to income tax expense, if incurred, is included in provision for incometaxes.Stock-Based CompensationCompensation expense for stock awards is based on the grant date fair value and expensed over the applicable vesting period. UNIFI has a policy of issuing new shares tosatisfy award exercises and conversions. For awards with a service condition and a graded vesting schedule, UNIFI has elected an accounting policy of recognizingcompensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separate vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards.Foreign Currency TranslationAssets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. Dollar (“USD”) are translated at exchange rates existing at the respective balancesheet dates. Translation gains and losses are not included in determining net income, but are presented in a separate component of accumulated other comprehensiveloss. UNIFI translates the results of operations of its foreign operations at the average exchange rates during the respective periods. Transaction gains and losses areincluded within other operating expense (income), net.Revenue RecognitionRevenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, which primarily occurs at a point in time, upon either shipmentor delivery to the customer. Revenue is also recognized over time for certain contracts in which the associated inventory produced has no alternative use and for which anenforceable right to payment exists or the associated services have been rendered. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration UNIFI expects to receive inexchange for completing its performance obligations (i.e., transferring goods or providing services), which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable considerationincludes volume-based incentives and product claims, which are offered within certain contracts between UNIFI and its customers. Sales taxes and value added taxesassessed by governmental entities are excluded from the measurement of consideration expected to be received. Shipping and handling costs incurred after a customer hastaken control of our goods are treated as a fulfillment cost and are not considered a separate performance obligation.Cost of SalesThe major components of cost of sales are: (i) materials and supplies, (ii) labor and fringe benefits, (iii) utility and overhead costs associated with manufactured products, (iv)cost of products purchased for resale, (v) shipping, handling and warehousing costs, (vi) research and development costs, (vii) depreciation expense and (viii) all other costsrelated to production or service activities.Shipping, Handling and Warehousing CostsShipping, handling and warehousing costs include costs to store goods prior to shipment, prepare goods for shipment and physically move goods to customers.Research and Development CostsResearch and development costs include employee costs, production costs related to customer samples, operating supplies, consulting fees and other miscellaneouscosts. The cost of research and development is charged to expense as incurred. Research and development costs were as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Research and development costs $12,359 $7,792 $7,177 F-11Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Selling, General and Administrative ExpensesThe major components of SG&A expenses are: (i) costs of UNIFI’s sales force, marketing and advertising efforts, and commissions, (ii) costs of maintaining UNIFI’s generaland administrative support functions including executive management, information technology, human resources, legal and finance, (iii) amortization of intangible assets and (iv)all other costs required to be classified as SG&A expenses.Advertising CostsAdvertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in SG&A expenses. UNIFI’s advertising costs include spending for items such as consumer marketing and brandinginitiatives, promotional items, trade shows, sponsorships and other programs. Advertising costs were as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Advertising costs $3,639 $3,439 $3,070Self-InsuranceUNIFI self-insures certain risks such as employee healthcare claims. Reserves for incurred but not reported healthcare claims are estimated using historical data, thetimeliness of claims processing, medical trends, inflation and any changes, if applicable, in the nature or type of the plan.ContingenciesAt any point in time, UNIFI may be a party to various pending legal proceedings, claims or environmental actions. Accruals for estimated losses are recorded at the timeinformation becomes available indicating that losses are probable and estimable. Any amounts accrued are not discounted. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees andexpenses are charged to expense as incurred. 3. Recent Accounting PronouncementsIssued and Pending AdoptionIn February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new guidanceis intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing keyinformation about leasing arrangements. The new lease guidance is effective for UNIFI’s fiscal 2020.Upon adoption, UNIFI expects to make an accounting policy election to not reflect leases with an initial term of 12 months or less in the consolidated balance sheets,recognizing those respective lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. UNIFI also plans to elect thepackage of transition practical expedients which would allow UNIFI to carry forward prior conclusions related to: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are leases orcontain leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases. UNIFI does not expect to elect the hindsight practicalexpedient. The new lease guidance requires a modified retrospective transition approach and provides an optional transition method to either (a) record current existing leasesas of the effective date or (b) record leases existing as of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. UNIFI expects to adopt the new lease guidanceutilizing the optional modified retrospective transition method, applied at the date of adoption, recording existing leases as of the effective date, July 1, 2019. Under this method,no adjustment to comparative prior periods is required and UNIFI expects no adjustment will be necessary to the opening retained earnings balance for fiscal 2020. Accordingly,financial statement information and disclosures required under the new lease guidance will not be provided for dates and periods prior to July 1, 2019.UNIFI continues to assess the effect the guidance will have on its existing accounting policies and the consolidated financial statements, and upon adoption, expects there willbe approximately a 2% increase in total assets on the consolidated balance sheets due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities.Relating to the transition to ASU No. 2016-02, PAL expects to adopt the new lease guidance in its fiscal 2020. PAL is currently evaluating the impact of the new lease guidance.Recently AdoptedIn May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Subsequent ASUs were issued to provide clarity and to defer theeffective date of the new guidance. The new revenue recognition guidance eliminates the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAPand replaces it with a principles-based approach.F-12Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Upon adoption in fiscal 2019, UNIFI determined that the impact of the new revenue recognition guidance was immaterial. Accordingly, UNIFI utilized the modified retrospectivemethod of adoption and recorded the impact of open contracts as of June 24, 2018 as an adjustment to the opening balance of fiscal 2019 retained earnings, and prior periodbalances were not adjusted. Details of the fiscal 2019 adjustment follow. See Note 5, “Revenue Recognition,” for further detail regarding adoption and additional disclosures. Revenue earned in fourth quarter fiscal 2018 related to contracts open at June 24, 2018 $8,593 Less associated cost of sales 7,992 Less associated income tax 142 Adjustment to retained earnings for contracts open at June 24, 2018 $459In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory, which modifies the subsequent measurement of inventories recorded under a first-in, first-out or average costmethod. Under the new standard, such inventories are required to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The new standard was effective for UNIFI’s fiscal2018, with prospective application. UNIFI’s prior principles for inventory measurement included consideration of net realizable value and, therefore, the adoption of the newstandard had no significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements.In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. TheASU includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including the accounting and classification of the respectiveincome tax impacts, forfeitures and statutory withholding requirements. UNIFI adopted the ASU in fiscal 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption resulted in a $230 decreaseto the provision for income taxes for excess tax benefits and an immaterial increase in potential dilutive weighted average shares for fiscal 2018. UNIFI recognizes forfeituresas they occur, and there was no corresponding retrospective adjustment to retained earnings. Additionally, UNIFI presented the change in classification of excess tax benefitsin the consolidated statements of cash flows on a prospective basis.In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU is intended toimprove and simplify the rules around hedge accounting, reduce complexity for certain hedging concepts and better align financial reporting with an entity’s risk managementactivities. UNIFI early adopted ASU No. 2017-12 in fiscal 2018. Adoption will allow UNIFI to (i) eliminate consideration for hedge ineffectiveness, (ii) utilize a qualitativeeffectiveness assessment prospectively and (iii) contemplate hedge accounting for additional risk management activities allowed by the simplified guidance. Due to a lack ofcomplexity in UNIFI’s recent risk management activities, there were no applicable cumulative adjustments to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements in connection withadoption of the ASU.In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU is intended to clarify the definition ofa business and to reduce the complexity of evaluating transactions that are more akin to asset acquisitions. UNIFI early adopted ASU No. 2017-01 in fiscal 2018 and futuretransactions are evaluated under the new guidance. There were no adjustments to UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements required in connection with the adoption of theASU. In fiscal 2018, an asset purchase agreement was evaluated under the ASU and the associated transaction was recorded as an asset acquisition.There have been no other newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidatedfinancial statements. 4. Sale of RenewablesOn December 23, 2016, UNIFI, through a wholly owned foreign subsidiary, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “RR Agreement”) to sell its 60% equityownership interest in Repreve Renewables, LLC (“Renewables”) to its existing third-party joint venture partner for $500 in cash and release of certain debt obligations (the “RRSale”). UNIFI had no continuing involvement in the operations of Renewables subsequent to December 23, 2016.In connection with the RR Sale, UNIFI recognized a $1,662 loss on sale of business, reflecting the difference between the cash consideration received and UNIFI’s portion ofRenewables’ net assets on the date of the RR Agreement. The operations of Renewables during the period of UNIFI’s ownership are not reflected as discontinued operationsas (i) the enterprise did not have a major effect on UNIFI’s consolidated operations and financial results, (ii) the disposal did not represent a strategic shift and (iii) the enterprisewas not an individually significant component. The operations of Renewables up to the date of the RR Sale are reflected in continuing operations within the accompanyingconsolidated statements of income.The loss on the sale of the business is not relevant to UNIFI’s core operations and is not reflective of the primary revenue or expense activity of UNIFI. Therefore, UNIFI hasrecorded the loss on the sale of Renewables below operating income within the accompanying consolidated statements of income.F-13Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 5. Revenue RecognitionIn fiscal 2019, UNIFI adopted the new revenue recognition guidance. Details surrounding the impact of adoption and the additional disclosures follow.The following table presents disaggregated revenues for UNIFI: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Third-party textile manufacturer $700,077 $670,239 $639,685 Service 8,727 8,673 7,585 Net sales $708,804 $678,912 $647,270Third-Party Textile ManufacturerThird-party textile manufacturer revenue is primarily generated through sales to direct customers. Such sales represent satisfaction of UNIFI’s performance obligationsrequired by the associated revenue contracts. Each of UNIFI’s reportable segments derives revenue from sales to third-party textile manufacturers.Service RevenueService revenue is primarily generated, as services are rendered, through fulfillment of toll manufacturing of textile products or transportation services governed by writtenagreements. Such toll manufacturing and transportation services represent satisfaction of UNIFI’s performance obligations required by the associated revenue contracts. ThePolyester Segment derives service revenue for toll manufacturing, and the All Other category derives service revenue for transportation services.Variable ConsiderationVolume-based incentivesVolume-based incentives involve rebates or refunds of cash that are redeemable if the customer satisfies certain order volume thresholds during a defined time period. Underthese incentive programs, UNIFI estimates the anticipated rebate to be paid and allocates a portion of the estimated cost of the rebate to each underlying sales transaction withthe customer.Product claimsUNIFI generally offers customers claims support or remuneration for defective products. UNIFI estimates the amount of its product sales that may be claimed as defective byits customers and records this estimate as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized.For all variable consideration, where appropriate, UNIFI estimates the amount using the expected value, which takes into consideration historical experience, currentcontractual requirements, specific known market events and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect UNIFI’s best estimates of theamount of consideration to which the customer is entitled based on the terms of the contracts.Impact of adoption of new revenue recognition guidanceThe following table summarizes the impact of the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance on UNIFI's applicable financial statement line items for fiscal 2019. Anyimpact to other financial statement line items is insignificant and excluded from the below.Financial Statement Line Item Treatment underprevious RevenueRecognition Guidance Adjustmentsin connectionwith New RevenueRecognition Guidance As reported underNew RevenueRecognition Guidance Revenue $709,538 $(734) $708,804 Cost of sales $643,212 $(716) $642,496 Gross profit (loss) $66,326 $(18) $66,308 Inventory $141,012 $(7,231) $133,781 Contract assets $— $7,794 $7,794Contract assets represents the estimated revenue attributable to UNIFI in connection with completed performance obligations under contracts with customers for whichrevenue is recognized over time. The contract assets are classified to receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional. The $7,794 change in the contract assetsbalance from June 24, 2018 to June 30, 2019 represents the routine recognition of satisfied performance obligations, in connection with adoption of and treatment under the newrevenue recognition guidance.

Certain foreign inventories and limited categories of supplies of $45,122 and$39,870 as of June 30, 2019 and June 24, 2018, respectively, were valued under the average cost method. In connection with UNIFI’s utilization of the modified retrospective method of adopting the new revenue recognition guidance, prior period balances were not adjusted to reflectthe impact that the new revenue recognition guidance would have had on prior periods. See Note 5, “Revenue Recognition,” for further detail regarding the impact of the newrevenue recognition guidance to fiscal 2019.

The valuation of the customer list acquired was determined byestimating the discounted net earnings attributable to the customer relationships that were purchased after considering items such as possible customer attrition. Based on thelength and trend of the projected cash flows, an estimated useful life of 13 years was determined. The customer list is amortized through December 2019, in a manner whichreflects the expected economic benefit that will be received over its 13-year life. The non-compete agreement was fully amortized in fiscal 2018 and removed from theaccompanying consolidated balance sheets accordingly.A customer list and a non-compete agreement were recorded in connection with a business combination in fiscal 2014, utilizing similar valuation methods as described in theabove fiscal 2007 transaction. The customer list is amortized over a nine-year estimated useful life based on the expected economic benefit. The non-compete agreement wasfully amortized in December 2018 and removed from the accompanying consolidated balance sheets accordingly.In fiscal 2018, UNIFI purchased certain dyeing assets that are included in the Polyester Segment. The associated non-compete agreement was valued at $1,875 and isamortized using the straight-line method over its five-year term.UNIFI capitalizes costs incurred to register trademarks for REPREVE® and other PVA products in various countries. UNIFI has determined that these trademarks have varyinguseful lives of up to three years and are being amortized using the straight-line method.Amortization expense for intangible assets consists of the following: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Customer lists $639 $843 $1,020 Non-compete agreements 379 205 287 Trademarks, licenses and other 94 62 74 Total amortization expense $1,112 $1,110 $1,381 The following table presents the expected intangible asset amortization for the next five fiscal years: Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2021 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2024 Expected amortization $831 $538 $473 $328 $— 11.

The combined designated hedges fix the London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) at approximately 1.9% for$75,000 of variable rate borrowings through May 24, 2022. In accordance with hedge accounting, each swap is reflected on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets atfair value with a corresponding balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and impacts earnings commensurate with the forecasted transaction. As of June 30, 2019,the associated fair value of the swaps are reflected in other long-term liabilities. 12.

The 2018 Amendment amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated asof March 26, 2015, by and among Unifi, Inc. and a syndicate of lenders, as previously amended (as further amended by the 2018 Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). TheCredit Agreement provides for a $200,000 senior secured credit facility (the “ABL Facility”), including a $100,000 revolving credit facility (the “ABL Revolver”) and a term loanthat can be reset up to a maximum amount of $100,000, once per fiscal year, if certain conditions are met (the “ABL Term Loan”). The ABL Facility has a maturity date ofDecember 18, 2023.The 2018 Amendment made the following changes to the Credit Agreement, among others: (i) extended the maturity date from March 26, 2020 to December 18, 2023 and (ii)decreased the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement) pricing structure for Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and LIBOR Rate Loans (asdefined in the Credit Agreement) by 25 basis points. In addition, in connection with the 2018 Amendment, the principal amount of the ABL Term Loan was reset from $80,000 to$100,000. Net proceeds from the ABL Term Loan reset were used to pay down the amount outstanding on the ABL Revolver. Additionally, the 2018 Amendment resulted in aloss on extinguishment of debt of $131 in connection with the write-off of certain unamortized debt issuance costs.The ABL Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all owned property and assets (together with all proceeds and products) of Unifi, Inc.,Unifi Manufacturing, Inc. and certain subsidiary guarantors (collectively, the “Loan Parties”). It is also secured by a first-priority security interest in all (or 65% in the case ofUNIFI’s first-tier controlled foreign subsidiary, as required by the lenders) of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) each of the Loan Parties (other than Unifi, Inc.) andcertain subsidiaries of the Loan Parties, together with all proceeds and products thereof.If excess availability under the ABL Revolver falls below the defined Trigger Level (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a financial covenant requiring the Loan Parties tomaintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a quarterly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.00 becomes effective. The Trigger Level as of June 30, 2019 was $24,688. In addition, the ABLFacility contains restrictions on particular payments and investments, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases. Subject to specificprovisions, the ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date, at UNIFI’s discretion.ABL Facility borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.25% to 1.75%, or the Base Rate (as defined below) plus an applicable margin of 0.25% to 0.75%,with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The applicable margin is based on (i) the excess availability under the ABL Revolver and (ii) the consolidated leverageratio, calculated as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Base Rate means the greater of (a) the prime lending rate as publicly announced from time to time by Wells FargoBank, National Association, (b) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.5% and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%. UNIFI’s ability to borrow under the ABLRevolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. There isalso a monthly unused line fee under the ABL Revolver of 0.25%.F-18Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI was in compliance with all financial covenants in the Credit Agreement and the excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $61,501. At June 30,2019, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.22 to 1.00 and UNIFI had $400 of standby letters of credit, none of which had been drawn upon. Management maintains thecapability to quickly and easily improve the fixed charge coverage ratio utilizing existing cash and cash equivalents.Capital Lease ObligationsThere were no significant capital leases established in fiscal 2019 or 2018.Scheduled Debt MaturitiesThe following table presents the scheduled maturities of UNIFI’s outstanding debt obligations for the following five fiscal years and thereafter: Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2021 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2024 Thereafter ABL Revolver $— $— $— $— $19,400 $— ABL Term Loan 10,000 10,000 10,000 10,000 57,500 — Capital lease obligations 5,519 2,623 2,417 90 95 374 Total $15,519 $12,623 $12,417 $10,090 $76,995 $374 14.

Each employee’s account is credited annually based upon a percentageof the participant’s base salary, with each participant’s balance adjusted quarterly to reflect the returns of a money market fund. Amounts are paid to participants six monthsafter termination of employment.On January 5, 2017, February 24, 2017 and June 1, 2017, UNIFI entered into Swap A, Swap B and Swap C. The combined designated hedges fix LIBOR at approximately1.9% for $75,000 of variable rate borrowings through May 24, 2022. In accordance with hedge accounting, each swap is reflected on the accompanying consolidated balancesheets at fair value with a corresponding balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and impacts earnings commensurate with the forecasted transaction. As of June30, 2019, the associated fair value of the swaps are reflected in other long-term liabilities.Other primarily includes certain retiree and post-employment medical and disability liabilities, deferred revenue and deferred energy incentive credits. 15. Income TaxesComponents of Income Before Income TaxesThe components of income before income taxes consist of the following: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 U.S. $(13,326) $(7,852) $2,689 Foreign 23,337 38,063 40,586 Income before income taxes $10,011 $30,211 $43,275 F-19Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Components of Provision (Benefit) for Income TaxesProvision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Current: Federal $(178) $(4,918) $(6,082)State 28 (416) (130)Foreign 7,282 9,639 10,224 Total current tax expense 7,132 4,305 4,012 Deferred: Federal (813) (5,315) 6,602 State 1,097 (872) 162 Foreign 139 391 122 Total deferred tax expense 423 (5,796) 6,886 Provision (benefit) for income taxes $7,555 $(1,491) $10,898 U.S. Tax Reform On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation H.R. 1, formerly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. H.R. 1 included significant changesto existing tax law, including a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, additional limitations on the deductions for executivecompensation and interest expense, and the transition of the U.S. international tax system from a worldwide tax to a territorial tax system. As a fiscal-year taxpayer, certainprovisions of H.R. 1 impacted UNIFI in fiscal 2018, including the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate and the one-time transition tax (“toll charge”), while otherprovisions became effective for UNIFI at the beginning of fiscal 2019. The enactment of H.R. 1 resulted in recording a total provisional tax benefit of $396 for fiscal 2018. For afull description of the impact of H.R. 1 for fiscal 2018, refer to Note 14, “Income Taxes,” in UNIFI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2019, UNIFI recorded an additional tax benefit of $843 related to the enactment of H.R. 1, which decreased the effective tax rate for the period by 8.4%. The total taxbenefit related to the enactment of H.R. 1 was $1,239, primarily consisting of $3,986 of tax benefit related to the re-measurement of deferred tax balances, and $2,747 of taxexpense related to the toll charge, net of foreign tax credits. Although UNIFI no longer considers these amounts provisional, the income tax effects of H.R. 1 may changefollowing future legislation or further interpretation of H.R. 1 based on the publication of guidance from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and state tax authorities. The Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions included in H.R. 1 require that certain income earned by foreign subsidiaries must be currently included in thegross income of the U.S. shareholder. These provisions were effective for UNIFI in fiscal 2019. The GILTI provisions are complex and subject to continuing regulatoryinterpretation by the IRS. UNIFI has elected to recognize GILTI as a current-period expense. Under this policy, UNIFI has not provided deferred taxes related to temporarydifferences that, upon their reversal, will affect the amount of income subject to GILTI in the period.Utilization of Net Operating Loss CarryforwardsDomestic deferred tax expense includes the utilization of federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $3,122 and $843 for fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. Foreigndeferred tax expense includes the utilization of NOL carryforwards of $655, $773 and $756 for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. State deferred tax expense includesthe utilization of NOL carryforwards of $106, $116 and $26 for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differencesbecome deductible. UNIFI considers the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback years, projected future taxable income and taxplanning strategies in making this assessment. Since UNIFI operates in multiple jurisdictions, the assessment is made on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, taking into accountthe effects of local tax law.The balances and activity for UNIFI’s deferred tax valuation allowance are as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Balance at beginning of year $(15,143) $(17,957) $(13,550)(Increase) decrease in valuation allowance (10,877) 2,814 (4,407)Balance at end of year $(26,020) $(15,143) $(17,957) F-21Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Components of UNIFI’s deferred tax valuation allowance are as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Investments, including unconsolidated affiliates $(5,696) $(5,522) $(7,789)NOL carryforwards (1) (4,048) (4,191) (9,379)Tax credits (16,276) (5,430) (789)Total deferred tax valuation allowance $(26,020) $(15,143) $(17,957) (1)Includes certain U.S. NOLs and capital losses outside the U.S. consolidated tax filing group.During fiscal 2019, UNIFI’s valuation allowance increased by $10,877. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the valuation allowance on foreign tax credits andcertain state NOLs and credit carryforwards.During fiscal 2018, UNIFI’s valuation allowance decreased by $2,814. The decrease was primarily driven by the release of a valuation allowance on NOLs outside the U.S.consolidated tax filing group that are now able to be utilized, and a decrease related to U.S. deferred tax assets to reflect the lower federal ending deferred tax rate. Thedecrease was partially offset by an increase related to foreign tax credit carryforwards for which no benefit can be realized. During fiscal 2017, UNIFI’s valuation allowance increased by $4,407. The increase consisted primarily of (i) $4,241 of foreign losses and (ii) $789 of foreign tax creditcarryforwards for which no benefit can be recognized. The increase was partially offset by a net decrease of $582 related to UNIFI’s investment in PAL due to the timing ofPAL’s taxable income versus book income.Unrecognized Tax BenefitsA reconciliation of beginning and ending gross amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Balance at beginning of year $166 $4,463 $4,254 Gross increases related to current period tax positions 26 26 124 Gross increases (decreases) related to tax positions in prior periods 980 (119) 524 Gross decreases related to settlements with tax authorities — (4,204) (439)Gross decreases related to lapse of applicable statute of limitations (89) — — Balance at end of year $1,083 $166 $4,463 Unrecognized tax benefits would generate a favorable impact of $1,043 on UNIFI’s effective tax rate when recognized. UNIFI does not expect material changes in uncertain taxpositions within the next 12 months. Expense (benefit) for interest and penalties recognized by UNIFI within the provision for income taxes was $22, $(1,030) and $(42) forfiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. UNIFI had $63, $41 and $772 accrued for interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2019, June 24,2018 and June 25, 2017, respectively.Expiration of Net Operating Loss Carryforwards and Foreign Tax CreditsAs of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had U.S. state NOL carryforwards of $46,189 and foreign NOL carryforwards of $9,204, offset by a full valuation allowance. The NOLcarryforwards begin expiring in varying amounts in fiscal 2020. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had the following carryforward attributes held outside of the U.S. consolidated taxfiling group: U.S. federal NOL carryforwards of $4,806, U.S. federal capital loss carryforwards of $4,489, and U.S. state NOL carryforwards of $12,279. The U.S. federal capitalloss carryforwards are offset with a full valuation allowance and the U.S. state NOL carryforwards are partially offset by a valuation allowance. The NOL carryforwards heldoutside of the U.S. consolidated tax filing group begin expiring in fiscal 2020. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI had U.S. federal foreign tax credit carryforwards of $13,477 andforeign tax credit carryforwards in foreign jurisdictions of $2,437, offset with a full valuation allowance. The foreign tax credit carryforwards begin expiring in varying amounts infiscal 2021.Tax Years Subject to ExaminationUnifi, Inc. and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, as well as income tax returns in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. The tax yearssubject to examination vary by jurisdiction. UNIFI regularly assesses the outcomes of both completed and ongoing examinations to ensure that UNIFI’s provision for incometaxes is sufficient.In fiscal 2019, the IRS initiated an audit for fiscal year 2015, 2016 and 2017. The audit was not concluded at the end of fiscal 2019. No material assessment is anticipated. Infiscal 2018, the IRS examined UNIFI’s federal income tax returns for fiscal 2014 and 2015, and re-examined the federal income tax return for fiscal 2013. The examinationclosed with no proposed adjustments. In fiscal 2016, the North Carolina Department of Revenue initiated an audit for fiscal year 2012 through 2015. The audit was notconcluded at the end of fiscal 2019. No material assessment is anticipated.F-22Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) UNIFI is currently under appeal in Colombia for tax years 2006 and 2007. UNIFI believes it is more-likely-than-not to conclude the appeal with no material assessment.Statutes related to material foreign jurisdictions are open from January 1, 2014 and material state jurisdictions from June 29, 2015. Certain carryforward tax attributesgenerated in years prior remain subject to examination and could change in subsequent tax years.Indefinite Reinvestment AssertionAs of June 30, 2019, U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes were not provided for on a cumulative total of approximately $131,386 of undistributed earnings of UNIFI’sforeign subsidiaries. UNIFI intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in its foreign subsidiaries. If at a later date, these earnings were to be repatriated to the U.S., UNIFIwould be required to accrue and pay state income and/or foreign local withholding taxes on these amounts. Determination of the amount of any unrecognized deferred taxliability on these undistributed earnings is not practicable. UNIFI will continue to assess the existing circumstances, including any changes in tax laws, and reevaluate thenecessity for any deferred tax liability. 16. Shareholders’ EquityOn April 23, 2014, UNIFI announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) had approved a share repurchase program (the “2014 SRP”) under which UNIFI was authorizedto acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. Through October 31, 2018 (the date the 2014 SRP was terminated, as noted below), UNIFI had repurchased a total of 806shares, at an average price of $27.79 (for a total of $22,409, inclusive of commission costs), pursuant to the 2014 SRP. On October 31, 2018, UNIFI announced that the Board had terminated the 2014 SRP and approved a new share repurchase program (the “2018 SRP”) under which UNIFI isauthorized to acquire up to $50,000 of its common stock. Under the 2018 SRP, purchases will be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing market prices, throughprivate transactions or block trades. The timing and amount of repurchases will depend on market conditions, share price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. Theshare repurchase authorization is discretionary and has no expiration date. Repurchases, if any, are expected to be financed through cash generated from operations andborrowings under the ABL Revolver, and are subject to applicable limitations and restrictions as set forth in the ABL Facility. UNIFI may discontinue repurchases at any timethat management determines additional purchases are not beneficial or advisable. As of June 30, 2019, $50,000 remained available for repurchase under the 2018 SRP.Repurchased shares are retired and have the status of authorized and unissued shares. The cost of the repurchased shares is recorded as a reduction to common stock tothe extent of the par value of the shares acquired and the remainder is allocated between capital in excess of par value, on a pro rata basis, and retained earnings.No dividends were paid in the three most recent fiscal years. 17. Stock-Based CompensationOn October 23, 2013, UNIFI’s shareholders approved the Unifi, Inc. 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”). The 2013 Plan replaced the 2008 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2008 LTIP”). No additional awards can be granted under the 2008 LTIP; however, prior awards outstanding under the 2008 LTIP remain subject tothat plan’s provisions. The 2013 Plan authorized the issuance of 1,000 shares of common stock, subject to certain increases in the event outstanding awards under the 2008LTIP expired, were forfeited or otherwise terminated unexercised.The 2013 Plan expired in accordance with its terms on October 24, 2018, and the Unifi, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Amended 2013Plan”) became effective on that same day, upon approval by shareholders at UNIFI’s annual meeting of shareholders held on October 31, 2018. The Amended 2013 Planincreased the number of shares available for future issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Amended 2013 Plan to 1,250 and removed provisions no longer applicabledue to the recent changes to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The material terms and provisions of the Amended 2013 Plan are otherwisesimilar to those of the 2013 Plan. No additional awards can be granted under the 2013 Plan; however, prior awards outstanding under the 2013 Plan remain subject to thatplan’s provisions.F-23Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) The following table provides information as of June 30, 2019 with respect to the number of securities remaining available for future issuance under the Amended 2013 Plan: Authorized under the Amended 2013 Plan 1,250 Plus: Awards expired, forfeited or otherwise terminated unexercised 135 Less: Awards granted to employees (265)Less: Awards granted to non-employee directors (89)Available for issuance under the Amended 2013 Plan 1,031Stock OptionsDuring fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, UNIFI granted stock options to purchase 190, 73 and 153 shares of its common stock, respectively, to certain key employees. The stockoptions vest ratably over the required three-year service period and have 10-year contractual terms. For fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, the weighted average exercise price ofthe stock options granted was $23.73, $32.61 and $28.82 per share, respectively. UNIFI used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the weighted average grant date fair valueof $8.42, $11.14 and $10.13 per share, respectively. During fiscal 2019, UNIFI granted stock options to purchase 33 shares of its common stock to a member of the Board. The stock options became fully vested on the grant dateand have 10-year contractual terms. The exercise price was $21.02 and the grant date fair value was $7.60.For stock options granted, the valuation models used the following assumptions: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Expected term (years) 5.5 5.2 5.0 Risk-free interest rate 2.9% 2.0% 1.4%Volatility 32.6% 34.3% 37.9%Dividend yield — — — UNIFI uses historical data to estimate the expected term and volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant forperiods corresponding with the expected term of the stock options.A summary of stock option activity for fiscal 2019 is as follows: Stock Options WeightedAverageExercise Price WeightedAverageRemainingContractual Life(Years) AggregateIntrinsicValue Outstanding at June 24, 2018 405 $23.73 Granted 223 $23.33 Exercised (69) $10.05 Cancelled or forfeited (157) $25.74 Expired (25) $27.98 Outstanding at June 30, 2019 377 $24.88 6.8 $386 Vested and expected to vest as of June 30, 2019 377 $24.88 6.8 $386 Exercisable at June 30, 2019 241 $24.10 5.7 $386 At June 30, 2019, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested stock options was $568, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted averageperiod of 1.7 years.For fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $971, $2,703 and $5,802, respectively. The amount of cash received from the exerciseof stock options was $483, $219 and $2,787 for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The tax benefit realized from stock options exercised was $61, $398 and $1,517 forfiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.F-24Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Restricted Stock Units and Vested Share UnitsDuring fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, UNIFI granted 75, 86 and 150 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), respectively, to certain key employees. The employee RSUs are subject to avesting restriction and convey no rights of ownership in shares of Company common stock until such employee RSUs have vested and been distributed to the grantee in theform of Company common stock. The employee RSUs vest over a three-year period, and will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock(for distribution to the grantee) on each vesting date, unless the grantee has elected to defer the receipt of the shares of stock until separation from service. UNIFI estimatedthe weighted average fair value of each employee RSU granted during fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 to be $23.58, $32.16 and $27.66 respectively.During fiscal 2019, UNIFI granted 47 vested share units (“VSUs”) to UNIFI’s non-employee directors. The director VSUs became fully vested on the grant date, but convey norights of ownership in shares of Company common stock until such director VSUs have been distributed to the grantee in the form of Company common stock. The directorVSUs will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock and distributed to the grantee following the grantee’s termination of service as amember of the Board. UNIFI estimated the fair value of each director VSU granted during fiscal 2019 to be $23.27.During fiscal 2018 and 2017, UNIFI granted 30 and 31 RSUs, respectively, to UNIFI’s non-employee directors. The director RSUs became fully vested on the grant date. Thedirector RSUs convey no rights of ownership in shares of Company common stock until such director RSUs have been distributed to the grantee in the form of Companycommon stock. The vested director RSUs will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock and distributed to the grantee following thegrantee’s termination of service as a member of the Board. With respect to the RSUs granted in fiscal 2017, the grantee may elect to defer receipt of the shares of Companycommon stock in accordance with the deferral options provided under the Unifi, Inc. Director Deferred Compensation Plan. UNIFI estimated the fair value of each director RSUgranted during fiscal 2018 and 2017 to be $35.83 and $29.09, respectively.UNIFI estimates the fair value of RSUs and VSUs based on the market price of UNIFI’s common stock at the award grant date.A summary of RSU and VSU activity for fiscal 2019 is as follows: Non-vested WeightedAverageGrant DateFair Value Vested Total WeightedAverageGrant DateFair Value Outstanding at June 24, 2018 198 $29.50 148 346 $27.45 Granted 122 $23.46 — 122 $23.46 Vested (105) $26.39 105 — $— Converted — $— (61) (61) $28.21 Cancelled or forfeited (102) $26.86 — (102) $26.86 Outstanding at June 30, 2019 113 $27.50 192 305 $25.61 At June 30, 2019, the number of RSUs and VSUs vested and expected to vest was 305, with an aggregate intrinsic value of $5,543. The aggregate intrinsic value of the 192vested RSUs and VSUs at June 30, 2019 was $3,496.The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested RSUs at June 30, 2019 was $1,305, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted averageperiod of 1.5 years.For fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, the total intrinsic value of RSUs converted was $1,427, $1,620 and $2,120, respectively. The tax benefit realized from the conversion of RSUswas $164, $247 and $806 for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.SummaryThe total cost charged against income related to all stock-based compensation arrangements was as follows: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Stock options $671 $884 $749 RSUs and VSUs 1,977 4,042 1,432 Total compensation cost $2,648 $4,926 $2,181 In fiscal 2019, UNIFI issued 10 shares of common stock for $244 of expense.The total income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation was $325, $442 and $599 for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.As of June 30, 2019, total unrecognized compensation costs related to all unvested stock-based compensation arrangements were $1,873. The weighted average period overwhich these costs are expected to be recognized is 1.5 years.F-25Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 18. Defined Contribution Plan UNIFI matches employee contributions made to the Unifi, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), a 401(k) defined contribution plan, which covers eligible domesticsalary and hourly employees. Under the terms of the 401(k) Plan, UNIFI matches 100% of the first 3% of eligible employee contributions and 50% of the next 2% of eligiblecontributions.The following table presents the employer matching contribution expense related to the 401(k) Plan: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 Matching contribution expense $2,836 $2,643 $2,538 19. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Non-Financial Assets and LiabilitiesFinancial InstrumentsUNIFI may use derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts or interest rate swaps to reduce its ongoing business exposures to fluctuations inforeign currency exchange rates or interest rates. UNIFI does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes.Foreign Currency Forward ContractsUNIFI may enter into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges for exposures related to certain sales, inventory purchases and equipment purchases which aredenominated in currencies that are not its functional currency. Foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as hedges by UNIFI and are marked to market eachperiod and offset by the foreign exchange (gains) losses included in other operating expense (income), net resulting from the underlying exposures of the foreign currencydenominated assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 2019 and June 24, 2018, there were no outstanding foreign currency forward contracts. However, UNIFI utilized a foreigncurrency forward contract during fiscal 2017, for which the impact to the consolidated financial statements was insignificant.Interest Rate SwapsUNIFI’s primary debt obligations utilize variable-rate LIBOR, exposing the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. Management enters intoLIBOR-based interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in the benchmark LIBOR. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps,UNIFI effectively receives LIBOR-based variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby fixing the variable rate cash flows on the notionalamount of debt obligations.On January 5, 2017, February 24, 2017 and June 1, 2017, UNIFI entered into Swap A, Swap B and Swap C. The combined designated hedges fix LIBOR at approximately1.9% for $75,000 of variable rate borrowings through May 24, 2022. In accordance with hedge accounting, each swap is reflected on the accompanying consolidated balancesheets at fair value with a corresponding balance in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and impacts earnings commensurate with the forecasted transaction.On May 18, 2012, UNIFI entered into a five-year, $50,000 interest rate swap (“Swap D”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flowsrelated to LIBOR-based variable rate borrowings under the ABL Facility. On November 26, 2012, UNIFI de-designated Swap D as a cash flow hedge. Swap D allowed UNIFIto fix LIBOR at 1.06% and terminated on May 24, 2017. See Note 20, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss,” for detail regarding the reclassifications of amounts fromaccumulated other comprehensive loss related to Swap D.F-26Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) Contingent ConsiderationIn December 2013, UNIFI acquired certain draw-winding assets in a business combination and recorded a $2,500 contingent consideration liability (Level 3 classification in thefair value hierarchy). The related contingent consideration liability did not incur material fair value activity. The liability balance at June 24, 2018 was a result of the life-to-datepayments made, which were completed during fiscal 2019.UNIFI’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy used to measure these items are as follows: As of June 30, 2019 Notional Amount Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Hierarchy Fair Value Swap A USD $20,000 Other long-term liabilities Level 2 $186 Swap B USD $30,000 Other long-term liabilities Level 2 $279 Swap C USD $25,000 Other long-term liabilities Level 2 $182 Contingent consideration — Accrued expenses Level 3 $— As of June 24, 2018 Notional Amount Balance Sheet Location Fair Value Hierarchy Fair Value Swap A USD $20,000 Other non-current assets Level 2 $584 Swap B USD $30,000 Other non-current assets Level 2 $877 Swap C USD $25,000 Other non-current assets Level 2 $798 Contingent consideration — Accrued expenses Level 3 $529 Estimates for the fair value of UNIFI’s derivative contracts are obtained from month-end market quotes for contracts with similar terms.Swaps A, B and C, designated hedges, decreased interest expense for fiscal 2019 by $320, increased interest expense for fiscal 2018 by $319 and increased interest expensefor fiscal 2017 by $42. Swap D, a de-designated hedge, increased interest expense for fiscal 2017 by $178.By entering into derivative contracts, UNIFI exposes itself to counterparty credit risk. UNIFI attempts to minimize this risk by selecting counterparties with investment gradecredit ratings and regularly monitoring those ratings. UNIFI’s derivative instruments do not contain any credit-risk-related contingent features.UNIFI believes that there have been no significant changes to its credit risk profile or the interest rates available to UNIFI for debt issuances with similar terms and averagematurities, and UNIFI estimates that the fair values of its debt obligations approximate the carrying amounts. Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents,receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The financial statement carrying amounts of these items approximate the fair values due to their short-term nature.There were no transfers into or out of the levels of the fair value hierarchy for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017.Non-Financial Assets and LiabilitiesUNIFI did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest EntitiesParkdale America, LLCIn June 1997, UNIFI and Parkdale Mills, Inc. (“Mills”) entered into a Contribution Agreement that set forth the terms and conditions by which the two companies contributed all ofthe assets of their spun cotton yarn operations utilizing open-end and air-jet spinning technologies to create PAL. In exchange for its contribution, UNIFI received a 34% equityownership interest in PAL, which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Effective January 1, 2012, Mills’ interest in PAL was assigned to ParkdaleIncorporated.PAL is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes. PAL is a producer of cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the global textileindustry and apparel market. Per PAL’s fiscal 2018 audited financial statements, PAL had 12 manufacturing facilities located primarily in the southeast region of the U.S. and inMexico, and PAL’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 74% of total revenues and 71% of total gross accounts receivable outstanding.As PAL’s fiscal year end is the Saturday nearest to December 31 and its results are considered significant, UNIFI files an amendment to each Annual Report on Form 10-K onor before 90 days subsequent to PAL’s fiscal year end to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s most recent fiscal year. UNIFI filed an amendment to its AnnualReport on Form 10-K for fiscal 2018 on March 28, 2019 to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s fiscal year ended December 29, 2018. UNIFI expects to file anamendment to this Annual Report on Form 10-K on or before March 27, 2020 to provide PAL’s audited financial statements for PAL’s fiscal year ended December 28, 2019.The U.S. federal government maintains a program providing economic adjustment assistance to domestic users of upland cotton (the “cotton rebate program”). The cottonrebate program offers a subsidy for cotton consumed in domestic production, and the subsidy is paid the month after the eligible cotton is consumed. To be completely earned,the subsidy must be used within 18 months after the marketing year in which it is earned to purchase qualifying capital expenditures in the U.S. for production of goods fromupland cotton. The marketing year is from August 1 to July 31. The program provides a subsidy of up to three cents per pound. In December 2018, the U.S. federal governmentextended the program at the same rate through July 31, 2021, and for subsequent years, subject to funding available through annual appropriations. PAL recognizes its shareof income for the cotton subsidy when the cotton has been consumed and the qualifying assets have been acquired, with an appropriate allocation methodology considering thedual criteria of the subsidy.PAL is subject to price risk related to anticipated fixed-price yarn sales. To protect the gross margin of these sales, PAL may enter into cotton futures to manage changes inraw material prices in order to protect the gross margin of fixed-priced yarn sales. The derivative instruments used are listed and traded on an exchange and are thus valuedusing quoted prices classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2019, PAL had no futures contracts designated as cash flow hedges.As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s investment in PAL was $112,398, which was reflected within investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balancesheets. The reconciliation between UNIFI’s share of the underlying equity of PAL and its investment is as follows: Underlying equity as of June 30, 2019 $130,489 Initial excess capital contributions 53,363 Impairment charge recorded by UNIFI in 2007 (74,106)Anti-trust lawsuit against PAL in which UNIFI did not participate 2,652 Investment as of June 30, 2019 $112,398U.N.F. Industries, Ltd.In September 2000, UNIFI and Nilit Ltd. (“Nilit”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”), for the purpose of operating nylon extrusion assets to manufacturenylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNF are provided by Nilit under separate supply and services agreements. UNF’s fiscal year end is December 31 and itis a registered Israeli private company located in Migdal Ha-Emek, Israel.UNF America, LLCIn October 2009, UNIFI and Nilit America Inc. (“Nilit America”) formed a 50/50 joint venture, UNF America LLC (“UNFA”), for the purpose of operating a nylon extrusion facilitywhich manufactures nylon POY. Raw material and production services for UNFA are provided by Nilit America under separate supply and services agreements. UNFA’s fiscalyear end is December 31 and it is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes located in Ridgeway, Virginia.In conjunction with the formation of UNFA, UNIFI entered into a supply agreement with UNF and UNFA whereby UNIFI agreed to purchase all of its first quality nylon POYrequirements for texturing (subject to certain exceptions) from either UNF or UNFA. The agreement has no stated minimum purchase quantities and pricing is negotiated everysix months, based on market rates. As of June 30, 2019, UNIFI’s open purchase orders related to this agreement were $2,919.F-29Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) UNIFI’s raw material purchases under this supply agreement consist of the following: For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019 June 24, 2018 June 25, 2017 UNF $1,735 $1,800 $2,254 UNFA 23,089 21,731 20,493 Total $24,824 $23,531 $22,747 As of June 30, 2019 and June 24, 2018, UNIFI had combined accounts payable due to UNF and UNFA of $1,728 and $2,301, respectively.UNIFI has determined that UNF and UNFA are variable interest entities and has also determined that UNIFI is the primary beneficiary of these entities, based on the terms ofthe supply agreement. As a result, these entities should be consolidated with UNIFI’s financial results. As UNIFI purchases substantially all of the output from the two entities,the two entities’ balance sheets constitute 3% or less of UNIFI’s current assets, total assets and total liabilities, and such balances are not expected to comprise a larger portionin the future, UNIFI has not included the accounts of UNF and UNFA in its consolidated financial statements. As of June 30 2019, UNIFI’s combined investments in UNF andUNFA were $1,922 and are shown within investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The financial results of UNF and UNFA areincluded in UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements with a one-month lag, using the equity method of accounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance withUNIFI’s accounting policy. Other than the supply agreement discussed above, UNIFI does not provide any other commitments or guarantees related to either UNF or UNFA.Condensed balance sheet and income statement information for UNIFI’s unconsolidated affiliates (including reciprocal balances) is presented in the following tables. PAL isdefined as significant and its information is separately disclosed. PAL does not meet the criteria for segment reporting. For UNIFI’s fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, PAL’scorresponding fiscal periods each consisted of 52 weeks.

Commitments and ContingenciesCollective Bargaining AgreementsWhile employees of UNIFI’s Brazilian operations are unionized, none of the labor force employed by UNIFI’s domestic or other foreign subsidiaries is currently covered by acollective bargaining agreement.EnvironmentalOn September 30, 2004, Unifi Kinston, LLC (“UK”), a subsidiary of Unifi, Inc., completed its acquisition of polyester filament manufacturing assets located in Kinston, NorthCarolina from Invista S.a.r.l. (“INVISTA”). The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99-year ground lease (the “Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours(“DuPont”). Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the NorthCarolina Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The program requires DuPont toidentify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at the identified AOCs and remediate the AOCs to comply with applicableregulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, UK entered into a lease termination agreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at the Kinston site toDuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved UK of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if socalled upon, with regard to UK’s period of operation of the Kinston site, which was from 2004 to 2008. At this time, UNIFI has no basis to determine if or when it will have anyresponsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same.UK continues to own property (the “Kentec site”) acquired in the 2004 transaction with INVISTA that has contamination from DuPont’s prior operations and is monitored byDEQ. The Kentec site has been remediated by DuPont, and DuPont has received authority from DEQ to discontinue further remediation, other than natural attenuation. Prior totransfer of responsibility to UK, DuPont and UK had a duty to monitor and report the environmental status of the Kentec site to DEQ.Effective April 10, 2019, UK assumed sole remediator responsibility of the Kentec site pursuant to its contractual obligations with INVISTA and received $180 of net monitoringand reporting costs due from DuPont. In connection with monitoring, UK expects to sample and report to DEQ annually. UNIFI expects no active site remediation will berequired and has no basis to determine any costs that may be associated with active remediation.F-31Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) LeasesUNIFI routinely leases sales and administrative office space, warehousing and distribution centers, manufacturing space, transportation equipment, manufacturing equipment,and other information technology and office equipment from third parties.

During fiscal 2018 and 2017, UNIFI earned income by providing for-hire freightservices for Salem Global Logistics, Inc. 26. Business Segment InformationUNIFI defines operating segments as components of the organization for which discrete financial information is available and operating results are evaluated on a regular basisby UNIFI’s principal executive officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Characteristics ofUNIFI which were relied upon in making the determination of reportable segments include the nature of the products sold, the internal organizational structure, the trade policiesin the geographic regions in which UNIFI operates, and the information that is regularly reviewed by the CODM for the purpose of assessing performance and allocatingresources.UNIFI has four reportable segments. •The operations within the Polyester Segment exhibit similar long-term economic characteristics and primarily sell into an economic trading zone covered bythe North American Free Trade Agreement and the Dominican Republic—Central America Free Trade Agreement (collectively, the regions comprising theseeconomic trading zones are referred to as “NACA”) to similar customers utilizing similar methods of distribution. These operations derive revenues primarilyfrom polyester-based products with sales primarily to other yarn manufacturers and knitters and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel,hosiery, automotive, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets. The Polyester Segment consists of sales and manufacturingoperations in the U.S. and El Salvador. •The operations within the Nylon Segment exhibit similar long-term economic characteristics and primarily sell into the NACA region to similar customersutilizing similar methods of distribution. These operations derive revenues primarily from nylon-based products with sales to knitters and weavers thatproduce fabric primarily for the apparel and hosiery markets. The Nylon Segment includes an immaterial operating segment in Colombia that sells similarnylon-based textile products to similar customers in Colombia and Mexico utilizing similar methods of distribution. The Nylon Segment consists of sales andmanufacturing operations in the U.S. and Colombia. •The Brazil Segment primarily sells polyester-based products to knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, automotive, home furnishings,industrial and other end-use markets principally in South America. The Brazil Segment includes a manufacturing location and sales offices in Brazil. •The operations within the Asia Segment exhibit similar long-term economic characteristics and sell to similar customers utilizing similar methods of distributionprimarily in Asia and Europe, which are outside of the NACA region. The Asia Segment primarily sells polyester-based products to knitters and weavers thatproduce fabric for the apparel, automotive, home furnishings, automotive, industrial and other end-use markets principally in Asia. The Asia Segment includessales offices in China and Sri Lanka.F-33Unifi, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, UNIFI increased from three to four reportable segments based on a change in the economic characteristics of the Asia Segment, whichprecludes aggregation with the Brazil Segment, based on expectations of differing annual sales growth rates and gross margins. The transition of UNIFI’s reportable segmentshas been applied retrospectively to fiscal 2018 and 2017.In connection with an intercompany agreement established in fiscal 2019 and consistent with an increased focus on a global, innovative supply chain, UNIFI’s operations withinthe Polyester Segment granted rights to the use of certain manufacturing know-how, processes and product technical information and design (“technologies”) to UNIFI’soperations in the Asia Segment. The technologies provide benefit to the Asia Segment by supporting its production and sale of differentiated products. Accordingly, theintercompany charge related to the agreement has been included in the calculation of segment profitability for fiscal 2019 and 2018 to align with the assessments andevaluations performed by, and information provided to, the CODM, in consideration of the impacts from intersegment technologies.Retrospective disclosure of the change in segment profitability has been applied beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 such that cost of sales for the Polyester Segmentincludes an intersegment technologies credit, while cost of sales for the Asia Segment includes a corresponding intersegment technologies expense. Each such technologiescredit or expense is recorded to the respective segment by fiscal year and fiscal quarter, following the methodology prescribed by the intercompany agreement in place. Suchintersegment technologies amounts are integral to evaluating the underlying performance and trends of each segment, and such amounts eliminate in consolidation. Thetechnologies credit (expense) reflected in the respective segments was $5,209 and $2,103 in fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. Per the applicable intercompany agreement,the intersegment technologies amounts were effective beginning January 1, 2018. Therefore, no intersegment technologies amounts are reflected in segment results for eitherthe first half of fiscal 2018 or all of fiscal 2017.In addition to UNIFI’s reportable segments, an All Other category is included in the tables below. All Other consists primarily of for-hire transportation services and Renewables(up through December 23, 2016, the date of the sale by UNIFI of its 60% equity ownership interest in Renewables). For-hire transportation services revenue is derived fromperforming common carrier services utilizing UNIFI’s fleet of transportation equipment. Revenue for Renewables was primarily derived from (i) facilitating the use of miscanthusgrass as bio-fuel through service agreements and (ii) delivering harvested miscanthus grass to poultry producers for animal bedding.The operations within All Other (i) are not subject to review by the CODM at a level consistent with UNIFI’s other operations, (ii) are not regularly evaluated using the samemetrics applied to UNIFI’s other operations and (iii) do not qualify for aggregation with an existing reportable segment. Therefore, such operations are excluded from reportablesegments.UNIFI evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon Segment Profit, which represents segment gross profit (loss) plus segment depreciation expense. Thismeasurement of segment profit or loss best aligns segment reporting with the current assessments and evaluations performed by, and information provided to, the CODM.The accounting policies for the segments are consistent with UNIFI’s accounting policies.

COMMON STOCK The statements in this description of the common stock of Unifi, Inc. (the “Registrant”) are brief summaries of, and are subject to theprovisions of, the Registrant’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate of Incorporation”) and Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended (the “Amended and Restated By-laws”), and the relevant provisions of the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York(the “NYBCL”). General Under the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Registrant is authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of its common stock, parvalue $0.10 per share (“Common Stock”), of which 18,489,842 shares were issued and outstanding as of August 16, 2019. All shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding are fully paid and non-assessable shares of capital stock of the Registrant. Voting Rights In general, each holder of the Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters brought before the Registrant’sshareholders. Each director nominee shall be elected by an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast with respect to such director nomineeby the shareholders entitled to vote in the election at a meeting at which a quorum is present, unless the number of nominees exceeds the numberof directors to be elected in which case each director nominee shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares properly represented andentitled to vote in the election at such meeting. Holders of the Common Stock do not have the right to cumulative voting in the election ofdirectors. In general, the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of all outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote is required toapprove a merger, a consolidation, a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Registrant or the voluntary dissolution ofthe Registrant. Otherwise, any action requiring a shareholder vote requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at ameeting by the holders of shares entitled to vote on the action. Dividend Rights The holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of Directors of the Registrant may declareout of funds legally available therefor. The payment of dividends by the Registrant will be subject to the restrictions of the NYBCL applicable tothe declaration of dividends. Under such provisions, dividends paid in cash or in other property of a corporation may only be paid if the corporationis not insolvent or would not be made insolvent by the payment of the dividend, or when the declaration or payment of the dividend would not becontrary to any other restriction contained in the corporation’s certificate of incorporation. A corporation generally may only pay such dividends outof its surplus. Stock dividends, if any are declared, may be paid from the Registrant’s authorized but unissued shares, or in treasury shares. There can be no assurance as to the payment of dividends on shares of Common Stock in the future since such payment will dependupon the earnings and financial condition of the Registrant and other related factors, including approval by the Registrant’s Board of Directors. Liquidation Rights In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Registrant, holders of outstanding shares of the CommonStock would be entitled to share, in proportion to their respective interests, in the Registrant’s assets and funds remaining after payment, orprovision for payment, of all debts and other liabilities of the Registrant.  Other Rights The Common Stock does not have any preemptive or other subscription rights, conversion rights or redemption privileges, and is notentitled to any sinking fund. Transfer Agent and Registrar; Listing American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC is the transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock. The Common Stock islisted for trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “UFI.” Anti-Takeover Effects of North Carolina and New York Law, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated By-laws Certain provisions of the North Carolina Business Corporation Act, the NYBCL, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended andRestated By-laws may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing another person from acquiring control of the Registrant, includingtakeover attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of Common Stock. Control Share Acquisition Statutes In 1987, the North Carolina legislature adopted The North Carolina Control Share Acquisition Act related to certain rights provided to acorporation in connection with acquisitions of the corporation’s voting power above specified thresholds. The North Carolina legislature revisedsuch Act effective June 5, 1989 to limit its scope to North Carolina corporations. By its terms, The North Carolina Control Share Acquisition Actdoes not apply to the Registrant because it is organized under the laws of the State of New York. New York has adopted a statute similar to TheNorth Carolina Control Share Acquisition Act, but the statute does not by its terms apply to the Registrant because its principal place of businessis not located in New York. The information set forth herein regarding the potential applicability of legislation in North Carolina or elsewhere which would have ageneral application to corporations having characteristics similar to that of the Registrant is current as of August 29, 2019, but the Registrantmakes no undertaking to update such information to reflect legislative or judicial developments. The North Carolina Shareholder Protection Act In 1987, the North Carolina legislature adopted The North Carolina Shareholder Protection Act related to certain rights afforded to acorporation’s shareholders in connection with specified acquisitions of the corporation’s voting powers; however, as of July 16, 1987, theRegistrant elected pursuant to such Act not to be subject to the provisions contained therein. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated By-laws The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated By-laws contain the following provisions: •Advance Notification. The Amended and Restated By-laws contain advance notice requirements for shareholder proposalsand director nominations. •No Cumulative Voting. Neither the Restated Certificate of Incorporation nor the Amended and Restated By-laws provide forcumulative voting in the election of directors. •Limits on Calling Special Meetings of Shareholders. Neither the Restated Certificate of Incorporation nor the Amended andRestated By-laws provide that a special meeting of shareholders may be called by shareholders.2  Limitations of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers Section 722 of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to an actionor proceeding (other than one by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor), whether civil or criminal, including an action byor in the right of any other corporation of any type or kind, domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan orother enterprise, which any director or officer of the corporation served in any capacity at the request of the corporation, by reason of the fact thathe or she, his or her testator or intestate, was a director or officer of the corporation, or served such other corporation, partnership, joint venture,trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses,including attorneys’ fees actually and necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein, if such director or officeracted, in good faith, for a purpose which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for any other corporation or anypartnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminalactions or proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Section 721 of the NYBCL providesthat the indemnification and advancement of expenses granted pursuant to, or provided by, the NYBCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any otherrights to which a director or officer seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director of the Registrant shall not be liable to the Registrant or itsshareholders for monetary damages for breach of duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is notpermitted under the NYBCL. The Amended and Restated By-laws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless anyperson who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,criminal, administrative, investigative or other, including appeals, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or employee ofthe Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer or employee of any corporation, partnership, joint venture,trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in anofficial capacity as a director, officer or employee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or employee, to the fullest extentauthorized by the NYBCL, against all expenses, liability and loss reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith; provided,however, that subject to certain exceptions relating to proceedings seeking to enforce rights to indemnification, the Registrant shall indemnify anysuch person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if the proceeding (or partthereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors. The Amended and Restated By-laws further provide that the right to indemnification conferredtherein shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Registrant expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding inadvance of its final disposition; provided, however, that if required by law at the time of such payment, the payment of such expenses incurred bya director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, shall be made only upondelivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determinedultimately that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under the Amended and Restated By-laws or otherwise. Section 726 of the NYBCL permits a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance to indemnify the corporation, directors andofficers. The Registrant maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for its directors and officers, as permitted in the Amended andRestated By-laws. 3  Exhibit 10.33August 6, 2019 Mr. Albert P.
