The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms "company," "TTC," "we," "our," or "us" refer to The Toro Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated from the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting primarily of recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of the company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Due to seasonality within the industries in which the company's businesses operate, the effect of COVID-19 and the macroeconomic effects resulting therefrom on the Company's business and operating results, among other factors, operating results for the six months ended April 29, 2022 cannot be annualized to determine the expected results for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2022. The company’s fiscal year ends on October 31 and quarterly results are reported based on three-month periods that generally end on the Friday closest to the calendar quarter end. For comparative purposes, however, the company’s second and third quarters always include exactly 13 weeks of results so that the quarter end date for these two quarters is not necessarily the Friday closest to the calendar month end. For further information regarding the company's basis of presentation, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021. The policies described in that report are used for preparing the company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Impact of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, in response to Russia's Invasion of Ukraine, the company discontinued sales into the Russian and Belarus markets. Sales in those markets do not represent a significant share of our overall international business, and the company does not expect this decision to have a material impact on financial results. Continuing Impact of COVID-19 COVID-19 is having lingering effects on public health and portions of the global economy. The company continues to see significant pressure on global supply chains rooted mainly in disruptions created by these effects. The continuing implications of COVID-19, including its variants, and the macroeconomic effects resulting therefrom, on the company remain uncertain and will depend on future developments, including any adverse impact due to additional variants of the virus; its impact on market demand for the company's products; its impact on the company's employees, customers, and suppliers; the range of government mandated restrictions and other measures; and the success of the COVID-19 vaccines and their effectiveness against the virus and related variants. This uncertainty could have a material impact on accounting estimates and assumptions utilized to prepare the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the six months ended April 29, 2022 and in future reporting periods, which could result in a material adverse impact on the company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Accounting Policies and Estimates In preparing the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management must make decisions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosures, including disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. Estimates are used in determining, among other items, sales promotion and incentive accruals, incentive compensation accruals, income tax accruals, inventory valuation, warranty accruals, allowances for current expected credit losses, pension accruals, self-insurance accruals, legal accruals, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, useful lives for tangible and finite-lived intangible assets, future cash flows associated with impairment testing for goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination or an asset acquisition, when applicable. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments at the time they are made and are generally derived from management's understanding and analysis of the relevant and current circumstances, historical experience, and actuarial and other independent external third-party specialist valuations, when applicable. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, including those impacted by COVID-19 and Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the related sanctions and geopolitical tensions, actual amounts could differ significantly from those estimated at the time the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared. New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The amended guidance also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting for income taxes under accounting standards codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amended guidance was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and did not have a material impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which clarified that before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method of accounting for an investment in equity securities, an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the fair value measurement alternative. The amended guidance was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and did not have a material impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden of accounting for reference rate reform due to the cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate, commonly referred to as "LIBOR." The temporary guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, relationships, and transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The guidance was effective upon issuance on March 12, 2020 and the provisions of the temporary optional guidance provided by the ASU may be elected on a prospective basis from the beginning of an interim period that includes the issuance date of the ASU through December 31, 2022, when the reference rate reform activity is expected to be substantially complete. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, to provide supplemental guidance and to further clarify the scope of the amended guidance. At this time, the company does not have receivables, hedging relationships, or operating lease agreements that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued; and therefore, the company has not applied the optional practical expedients under this ASU to these classes of assets. On October 5, 2021, the company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement and at such time, the company concluded that the optional practical expedients provided by the ASU would not be elected as the required criteria were not met. The amended and restated credit agreement includes a transition clause in the event LIBOR is discontinued and the company's other fixed-rate financing agreements do not reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. On April 27, 2022, the company amended its October 5, 2021 amended and restated revolving credit agreement to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). The SOFR reference rate will apply to draws and continuations that take place subsequent to the April 27, 2022 effective date of the amendment. For the outstanding borrowings as of April 29, 2022, the LIBOR reference rate was still in effect. The company does not expect the transition of LIBOR to have a material impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; however, a review of other contracts and agreements is underway and is expected to be completed prior to December 31, 2022. The company believes that all other recently issued accounting pronouncements from the FASB that the company has not noted above, will not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or do not apply to its operations.
