Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Note 1: Basis of Presentation Overview The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements of H.B. Fuller Company and Subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinion, the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 2, 2023 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU provides new disclosure requirements including presentation of prescribed line items in the effective tax rate reconciliation and disclosures regarding state and local tax payments. Our effective date for adoption of this ASU is our fiscal year ending November 28, 2026. We are evaluating the impact the new disclosure guidance will have on our Consolidated Finance Statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU extends the existing requirements for annual disclosures to quarterly periods and requires that both annual and quarterly disclosures present segment expenses using line items consistent with information regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. Our effective date for adoption of this ASU is our fiscal year ending November 29, 2025. We are evaluating the impact the new disclosure guidance will have on our Consolidated Finance Statements. Supplier Finance Program In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. This ASU requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of the financial statements to understand the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. To achieve that objective, the buyer should disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its supplier finance programs. ASU 2022-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the requirement on rollforward information which is an annual requirement. During the first quarter of our fiscal year ending November 30, 2024, we adopted ASU 2022-04. We will present the annual roll-forward disclosure requirement within our annual report on Form 10-K. We have agreements with third parties to provide supplier finance programs which facilitate participating suppliers' ability to finance payment obligations of the Company with designated third-party financial institutions. Participating suppliers may, at their sole discretion, elect to finance one or more payment obligations of the Company prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price to participating financial institutions. The Company has no economic interest in the sale of these suppliers’ receivables and no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions concerning these services. The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by suppliers’ decisions to finance amounts under these arrangements. The outstanding payment obligations that were confirmed as valid and remained outstanding as of August 31, 2024, were approximately $4,457. These obligations under the Company’s supplier finance programs are included in Accounts payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the associated payments are reflected in the cash flows from operating activities section of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements not disclosed above have been excluded as they are not relevant to the company.
