Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of LCI Industries and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("LCII" and collectively with its subsidiaries, the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"). LCII has no unconsolidated subsidiaries. LCII, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lippert Components, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Lippert Components," "LCI," or "Lippert"), supplies, domestically and internationally, a broad array of engineered components for the leading original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") in the recreation and transportation product markets, consisting primarily of recreational vehicles ("RVs") and adjacent industries including buses; trailers used to haul boats, livestock, equipment, and other cargo; trucks; boats; trains; manufactured homes; and modular housing. The Company also supplies engineered components to the related aftermarkets of these industries, primarily by selling to retail dealers, wholesale distributors, and service centers. At December 31, 2021, the Company operated over 120 manufacturing and distribution facilities located throughout North America and Europe. Most industries where the Company sells products or where its products are used historically have been seasonal and are generally at the highest levels when the weather is moderate. Accordingly, the Company's sales and profits have generally been the highest in the second quarter and lowest in the fourth quarter. However, because of fluctuations in dealer inventories, the impact of international, national, and regional economic conditions, consumer confidence on retail sales of RVs, and other products for which the Company sells its components, the timing of dealer orders, and the impact of severe weather conditions on the timing of industry-wide shipments from time to time, current and future seasonal industry trends have been, and may in the future be, different than in prior years, particularly as a result of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and related impacts. Additionally, sales of certain engineered components to the aftermarket channels of these industries tend to be counter-seasonal, but have been, and may in the future be, different as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related impacts. The Company is not aware of any significant events, except as disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to product returns, sales and purchase rebates, accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, net assets of acquired businesses, income taxes, warranty and product recall obligations, self-insurance obligations, operating lease right-of-use assets and obligations, asset retirement obligations, long-lived assets, pension and post-retirement benefits, stock-based compensation, segment allocations, contingent consideration, environmental liabilities, contingencies, and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, other available information, and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other resources. Actual results and events could differ significantly from management estimates. COVID-19 Update The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse effect on the Company's financial results during the first half of 2020 due to government-mandated plant shutdowns. The Company took a variety of actions during 2020 to help mitigate the adverse impacts, including temporary cost savings measures and delays and reductions in capital expenditures. Activity in most of the end markets the Company serves sequentially improved as 2020 progressed, and this trend continued through the full year 2021, especially in the RV and marine OEM markets and the Company's Aftermarket Segment. Management continues to closely monitor the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of the business. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company's liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations in the future remains uncertain.
