Basis of Presentation | Note 1: Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of La-Z-Boy Incorporated and our majority-owned subsidiaries. We derived the April 28, 2018, balance sheet from our audited financial statements. We prepared the interim financial information in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which we applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in our fiscal 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, but the information does not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In management’s opinion, the interim financial information includes all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments (except as otherwise disclosed), that are necessary for a fair statement of results for the respective interim periods. The interim results reflected in the accompanying financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the full fiscal year ending April 27, 2019. At July 28, 2018, we owned preferred shares of two privately-held companies, both of which are variable interest entities. We also hold a warrant to purchase common shares of one of these companies. We have not consolidated their results in our financial statements because we do not have the power to direct those activities that most significantly impact their economic performance and, therefore, are not the primary beneficiary. Accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2019 In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard that requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new standard supersedes virtually all existing authoritative accounting guidance on revenue recognition and requires additional disclosures and greater use of estimates and judgments. During July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the revenue recognition standard by one year, thus making the new accounting standard effective beginning with our fiscal 2019. We adopted the new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 with modified retrospective application. We reviewed substantially all of our contracts and other revenue streams and determined that while the application of the new standard did not have a material change in the amount of or timing for recognizing revenue, it did have a significant impact on our financial statement disclosures related to disaggregated revenue, customer deposits, other receivables and contract liabilities, as well as the presentation of other receivables and deferred revenues (contract liabilities) on our consolidated balance sheet. See Note 10 for information on these disclosures. In January 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with the fair value changes to be recognized through net income. This standard does not apply to investments that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting or that result in consolidation of the invested entity. As of April 28, 2018, we held equity investments and recognized changes in fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) as unrealized gains (losses). We adopted the new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and consequently reclassified $2.1 million of net unrealized gains from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings as a cumulative-effect adjustment during the first quarter of fiscal 2019. We also reclassified $0.5 million of tax expense related to these investments from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. We will recognize the tax impact for these investments in the consolidated statement of income as the unrealized gains (losses) become realized. See Note 5 for additional information on our current investments. In October 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Adoption of this standard did not impact our current practices because intra-entity transfers, as the standard defines them, did not occur in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. In January 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard clarifying the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to entities evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition. This standard was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Future acquisitions will be assessed under this adopted standard. In January 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard simplifying the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. An entity should now perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. We are required to adopt this standard by our fiscal 2021, but the standard permits us to adopt it early. We have elected to adopt this standard in fiscal 2019, and we will perform our goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. We do not believe that adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures. Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard requiring lessees to record all operating leases on their balance sheet. Under this standard, the lessee is required to record an asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a corresponding liability for the contractual lease payments. This standard will be effective beginning with our fiscal 2020. We are currently reviewing our leases and gathering the necessary information to adopt this standard when it becomes effective. We anticipate that adopting this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet as we have a significant number of operating leases. In June 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that amends current guidance on other-than-temporary impairments of available-for-sale debt securities. This new standard requires the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses on these assets when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset. This standard also removes the evaluation of the length of time that a security has been in a loss position to avoid recording a credit loss. We are required to adopt this standard for our fiscal 2021 and apply it through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. We are still assessing the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard designed to improve and simplify the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. This standard is intended to better align the recognition and presentation of the effects of hedging instruments with the hedged item in the financial statements, and requires additional disclosures on hedging instruments. This standard will be effective for our fiscal 2020. As of July 28, 2018, we do not have any outstanding hedging relationships or instruments that would be affected by this standard. The Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) required corporations to adjust deferred taxes to reflect the reduction of the corporate income tax rate, leaving items within accumulated other comprehensive income stranded at the historical tax rate. In February 2018, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that allows corporations in their consolidated financial statements to reclassify these stranded income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. This standard will be effective for our fiscal 2020, and companies are permitted to adopt it in any interim period. Companies are to apply the standard either in the period they adopt or retrospectively to each period that was affected by the Tax Act’s change in the federal corporate tax rate. We are still assessing the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
