Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation We have prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Pursuant to these rules and regulations, we have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures we normally include in our annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in management’s opinion, we have made all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary for a fair presentation of our quarterly results. Our interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. These financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on December 12, 2023 (our Annual Report). Use of Estimates. To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and could have a material impact on our operating results and financial position. Principles of Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Fiscal Year and Fiscal Quarter End. Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to October 31 and consists of 52 weeks, with the exception that approximately every five years, we have a 53-week year. When a 53-week year occurs, we include the additional week in the first quarter to realign fiscal quarters with calendar quarters. Fiscal 2024 is a 53-week year ending on November 2, 2024, which impacts our revenue, expenses and operating results. Fiscal 2023 was a 52-week year and ended on October 28, 2023. Our results of operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and 2023 included 40 weeks and 39 weeks, respectively, and ended on August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023, respectively. For presentation purposes, the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes refer to the closest calendar month end. Software Integrity Divestiture. During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we determined that our Software Integrity business met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation, and, as a result, Software Integrity’s historical financial results are reflected in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations, and assets and liabilities were retrospectively reclassified as assets and liabilities held for sale. We did not allocate any general corporate overhead to discontinued operations. See Note 3. Discontinued Operations of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant Accounting Policies. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies included in our Annual Report. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, which applies to all equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to contractual sale restrictions. This change prohibits entities from taking into account contractual restrictions on the sale of equity securities when estimating fair value and introduces required disclosures for such transactions. The ASU will become effective for us beginning on November 1, 2024 and will be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. Any future impact from the adoption of this ASU will depend on the facts and circumstances of future transactions. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The ASU expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The ASU is effective for our annual report beginning in the fiscal year 2025, and interim period reports beginning in the first quarter of the fiscal year 2026 on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The ASU will become effective for us beginning on November 1, 2025 and will be applied on a prospective ba sis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
