Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those statements, included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 23, 2021. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of October 1, 2021 was derived from audited financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of the Company, the statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal, recurring nature, required for a fair presentation for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year, due to the seasonality of some of the Company's business activities, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic ("COVID-19") and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions.The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling financial interest is maintained. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
New Accounting Standard Updates | New Accounting Standards Updates Adopted Standards In January 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update ("ASU") which provided clarification and improvements to existing guidance related to accounting for certain equity securities upon the application or discontinuation of equity method accounting and the measurement of forward contracts and purchased options on certain securities. The guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Standards Not Yet Adopted (from most to least recent date of issuance) In March 2022, the FASB issued an ASU which eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructuring for creditors in Accounting Standards Codification 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the ASU requires an entity to disclose current-period gross write offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. In March 2022, the FASB issued an ASU which expands the scope of existing guidance to allow entities to apply the portfolio layer method to portfolios of all financial assets, including both prepayable and non-prepayable financial assets. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. In November 2021, the FASB issued an ASU which requires that an entity provide certain annual disclosures when they have received government assistance. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. In October 2021, the FASB issued an ASU which requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") as if it had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. In January 2021, the FASB issued an ASU which clarifies certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting that may apply to derivatives that are affected by the discontinuance of LIBOR and the reference rate reform standard. The Company may adopt this guidance through December 31, 2022, which generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. In March 2020, the FASB issued an ASU which provides optional expedients that may be adopted and applied through December 31, 2022 to assist with the discontinuance of LIBOR. The expedients allow companies to ease the potential accounting burden when modifying contracts and hedging relationships that use LIBOR as a reference rate, if certain criteria are met. During fiscal 2020, the Company adopted the optional expedient to assert probability of forecasted hedged transactions occurring on its interest rate swap derivative contracts regardless of any expected contract modifications related to reference rate reform. The Company may adopt the remaining amendments of this standard through December 31, 2022, which generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss)Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes to stockholders' equity during a period, except those resulting from investments by and distributions to stockholders. Components of comprehensive income (loss) include net income (loss), changes in foreign currency translation adjustments (net of tax), pension plan adjustments (net of tax), changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges (net of tax) and changes to the share of any equity investees' comprehensive income (loss) (net of tax).
Currency Translation | Currency TranslationBeginning in fiscal 2018, Argentina was determined to have a highly inflationary economy. As a result, the Company remeasures the financial statements of Argentina's operations in accordance with the accounting guidance for highly inflationary economies. The impact of foreign currency transaction gains and losses during the three and six month periods of both fiscal 2022 and 2021 were immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Current Assets | Current AssetsThe Company insures portions of its risk in general liability, automobile liability, workers’ compensation liability and property liability through a wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary (the "Captive"), to enhance its risk financing strategies. The Captive is subject to regulations within its domicile of Bermuda, including regulations established by the Bermuda Monetary Authority (the "BMA") relating to levels of liquidity and solvency as such concepts are defined by the BMA. The Captive was in compliance with these regulations as of April 1, 2022. These regulations may have the effect of limiting the Company's ability to access certain cash and cash equivalents held by the Captive for uses other than for the payment of its general liability, automobile liability, workers' compensation liability, property liability and related Captive costs.
Other Assets | Other Assets Other assets consist primarily of costs to obtain or fulfill contracts, including rental merchandise in-service, long-term receivables, investments in 50% or less owned entities, computer software costs and employee sales commissions. For investments in 50% or less owned entities accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the carrying amount as of April 1, 2022 and October 1, 2021 was $273.3 million and $224.6 million, respectively. For investments in 50% or less owned entities, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the Company measures these investments at cost, less any impairment and adjusted for changes in fair value resulting from observable price changes for an identical or a similar investment of the same issuer due to the lack of readily available fair values related to those investments.
Other Current and Noncurrent Liabilities | Other Current and Noncurrent Liabilities The Company is self-insured for obligations related to certain risks that are retained under the Company's casualty program, which includes general liability, automobile liability and workers' compensation liability, property liability as well as for employee healthcare benefit programs. Reserves for retained costs associated with the casualty program are estimated through actuarial methods, with the assistance of third-party actuaries, using loss development assumptions based on the Company's claims history.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 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 at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are classified based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The hierarchical levels related to the subjectivity of the valuation inputs are defined as follows: • Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets • Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument • Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement Recurring Fair Value Measurements The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, borrowings and derivatives. Management believes that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values. In conjunction with the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments, the Company made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio, as the gross values would not be materially different.
