Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
General | General: Nature of Business Founded in 1938, Tractor Supply Company (the “Company” or “we” or “our”) is the largest operator of rural lifestyle retail stores in the United States (“U.S.”). The Company is focused on supplying the needs of recreational farmers and ranchers and those who enjoy the rural lifestyle (which we refer to as the “Out Here” lifestyle), as well as tradesmen and small businesses. Stores are located in towns outlying major metropolitan markets and in rural communities. The Company also owns and operates Petsense LLC (“Petsense”), a small-box pet specialty supply retailer focused on meeting the needs of pet owners, primarily in small and mid-sized communities, and offering a variety of pet products and services. At June 30, 2018, the Company operated a total of 1,899 retail stores in 49 states (1,725 Tractor Supply and Del’s retail stores and 174 Petsense retail stores) and also offered an expanded assortment of products online at TractorSupply.com and Petsense.com. Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year. In the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company adopted accounting guidance that allowed for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) as discussed in Note 12. This guidance was applied retrospectively, which resulted in the reclassification of $0.6 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 30, 2017. No other periods presented were affected by the adoption of this accounting guidance.
