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 27, 2019, 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 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), 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 25, 2020. ​ To further strengthen our supply chain footprint, on August 8, 2019, we announced our plan to close our Redlands, California upholstered furniture manufacturing facility and move production to available capacity at our other North American facilities. In addition, we will transition the leather cut-and-sew operation from the Newton, Mississippi upholstered furniture manufacturing plant to another North American-based cut-and-sew facility. The company’s Redlands upholstered furniture plant currently employs about 350 people, accounts for approximately 10% of the La-Z-Boy branded business total upholstery production and manufactures recliners, motion sofas and classics (high-leg recliners). We plan to cease production at the Redlands plant in October 2019. The move of the Newton leather cut-and-sew operation is expected to fully transition by the end of calendar 2019 and will impact about 105 of the 525 employees at that location. The Redlands facility, which is approximately 200,000 square feet, will be idled after operations cease and marketed for sale. ​ As a part of our supply chain optimization initiative, we may incur expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. Other expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, restructuring activities do not qualify as exit and disposal costs, such as accelerated depreciation, asset impairments and other incremental costs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized a severance liability of $1.5 million within cost of sales that was probable and estimable at the end of the reporting period. These costs do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under ASC 420. ​ At July 27, 2019, 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 the results of either of these companies in our financial statements because we do not have the power to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of either of these companies and, therefore, are not the primary beneficiary. ​ Accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2020 ​ Each accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) adopted below had a significant impact on our accounting policies and/or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ​ In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 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. We have adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. ​ The following table summarizes additional ASUs which were adopted in fiscal 2020, but did not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ​
