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 November 29, 2025 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. New Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Our effective date of this ASU is our fiscal year ending December 2, 2028. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the related financial statement disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires entities to provide additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. This guidance requires public entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if the items meet a quantitative threshold. Our effective date of this ASU is our fiscal year ending November 28, 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the related financial statement disclosures. Recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements not disclosed above have been excluded as they are not relevant to the company. Supplier Finance Program 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 February 28, 2026, and November 29, 2025, were approximately $8,633 and $7,379, respectively. 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. Short-term notes classified as long-term debt As of February 28, 2026, the Company had 10-year unsecured public notes with an aggregate principal balance of $300,000 and a fixed coupon rate of 4.0 percent due February 15, 2027, classified as long term debt on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the Company’s intent and ability to refinance the notes on a long‑term basis. The Company maintains a revolving credit facility with maturity extending beyond twelve months from the balance sheet date and sufficient borrowing capacity to replace the notes with a long-term financing facility.
