Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies On August 10, 2021, one of the Company’s subsidiaries was named in a putative class action lawsuit alleging claims on behalf of its non-exempt employees in California. The lawsuit alleges that the company failed to pay minimum and overtime wages, did not provide required meal and rest breaks, did not timely pay wages during employment and at the time of termination, provided noncompliant wage statements, failed to reimburse necessary business expenses, failed to keep requisite payroll records, and engaged in unfair business practices. On September 14, 2021, the same plaintiff bringing the putative class action filed a separate representative action under California’s Private Attorneys General Action (“PAGA”) seeking civil penalties relating to the same claims described above. Both lawsuits are in the very early stages. Due to the early stage of litigation, it is not possible to estimate a range of loss that could occur resulting from either an adverse judgment or a settlement of these matters. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, one of the Company’s subsidiaries ceased operations. This subsidiary contributed to a multiemployer pension plan, the Pension, Hospitalization and Benefit Plan of the Electrical Industry - Pension Trust Fund (the “Plan”). In October 2016, the Plan demanded payment for a claimed withdrawal liability of approximately $13.0 million. In December 2016, the subsidiary submitted a formal request to the Plan seeking review of the Plan’s withdrawal liability determination. The subsidiary disputes the claim that it is required to make payment of a withdrawal liability as demanded by the Plan as it believes that a statutory exemption under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) applies to its activities. The Plan has taken the position that the work at issue does not qualify for that statutory exemption. The subsidiary has submitted this dispute to arbitration, as required by ERISA. There can be no assurance that the Company’s subsidiary will be successful in asserting the statutory exemption as a defense in the arbitration proceeding. As required by ERISA, in November 2016, this subsidiary began making payments of a withdrawal liability to the Plan in the amount of approximately $0.1 million per month. If the subsidiary prevails in disputing the withdrawal liability, all such payments are expected to be refunded. Given the early stage of this action, it is not possible to estimate a range of loss that could result from either an adverse judgment or a settlement of this matter. From time to time, we are party to other various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management, based on information available at this time, that the ultimate resolution of any such claims or legal proceedings will not, after considering applicable insurance coverage or other indemnities to which we may be entitled, have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flow. Commitments Performance and Payment Bonds and Guarantees. We have obligations under performance and other surety contract bonds related to certain of our customer contracts. Performance bonds generally provide a customer with the right to obtain payment and/or performance from the issuer of the bond if we fail to perform our contractual obligations. As of January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, we had $296.4 million and $208.7 million, respectively, of outstanding performance and other surety contract bonds. In addition to performance and other surety contract bonds, as part of our insurance program, we also provide surety bonds that collateralize our obligations to our insurance carriers. As of January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, we had $20.3 million and $20.9 million, respectively, of outstanding surety bonds related to our insurance obligations. Additionally, the Company periodically guarantees certain obligations of its subsidiaries, including obligations in connection with obtaining state contractor licenses and leasing real property and equipment. Letters of Credit. We have issued standby letters of credit under our credit agreement that collateralize our obligations to our insurance carriers. As January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, we had $46.3 and $52.2 of outstanding standby letters of credit issued under our credit agreement, respectively. Deferral of Employer Payroll Taxes. During 2020, the U.S. federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which provided for various tax relief and tax incentive measures. These measures did not have a material impact on our results of operations. However, pursuant to the CARES Act, we deferred the payment of $37.4 million of employer payroll taxes during the year ended December 31, 2020, $18.7 million of which was paid by December 31, 2021 and the remainder is due by December 31, 2022.
