Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | (A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three- and six-month periods ended September 30, 2019 include the accounts of Eagle Materials Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company, us, or we) and have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2019. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information in the following unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements RECENTLY ADOPTED In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which supersedes existing lease guidance to require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. We adopted the standard on April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. We also elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, allowed us to maintain the historic lease classification for leases in effect at the date of adoption, and to not separate lease components from nonlease components for all leases in effect at the date of adoption. Upon adoption, we recorded a right of use asset of approximately $66.7 million, and operating lease liabilities of approximately $71.1 million. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to materially affect our consolidated statement of earnings or consolidated statement of cash flows. See Footnote (I) for more information. PENDING ADOPTION In June 2016, the FASB issued an update on the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, which requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than the current model of incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including accounts and notes receivable. The application of the forward-looking model may result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses than the current method. This guidance becomes effective for us on April 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
