In 2020, a gain of $173,000 (net of tax) on the sale of certain plant assets was credited directly to retained earnings. A major competitor has introduced a line of products that will compete directly with Culver's primary line, now being produced in a specially designed new plant. Because of manufacturing innovations, the competitor's line will be of comparable quality but priced 50% below Culver's line. The competitor announced its new line on January 14, 2021.
