COVID-19 [Abstract] |
COVID-19 | Note B – COVID-19 In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, subsequently named COVID-19, emerged from China and spread worldwide. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic and a national health emergency was declared by the United States beginning on March 1, 2020. In response, many states and local governments began a series of restrictions on public gatherings, retail store closures, stay at home orders and advisories and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus. In an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and protect our team members, customers, and communities, Havertys closed all of its stores and halted deliveries in mid-March 2020, with the expectation at that time of reopening stores on April 2, 2020. Our stores remained closed during April and we reopened 103 locations on May 1, 2020 and the remaining 17 stores were reopened by June 20, 2020. We restarted our delivery operations on May 5, 2020. The pandemic continues to disrupt several segments of the economy. Although we and many other businesses are open, some businesses and industries have only recently reopened or are operating on a reduced scale. Our business has been very strong since reopening. Consumers not negatively impacted financially are spending more money on furniture and accessories as they spend more time at home. However, many manufacturers are struggling to meet the increased consumer demand, resulting in product shortages and delays in a number of merchandise categories. In addition to experiencing supply chain disruptions and delays we have encountered difficulties in increasing our distribution and delivery capacity due to staffing shortages. The COVID-19 pandemic is complex and continues to evolve with sporadic resurgences, new shutdowns and disruptions of vendor operations, new virus variants, and the vaccine rollout. At this point, we cannot reasonably estimate the duration and extent of the pandemic’s influence on consumers, the “nesting” economy, and our business. Accordingly, our estimates and assumptions could change in subsequent interim reports, and it is reasonably possible that such changes could be significant (although the potential effects cannot be estimated at this time).
