Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION Global Industrial Company, through its operating subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Global Industrial”), is a value-added national distributor of hundreds of thousands of industrial and maintenance, repair and operations ("MRO") products in North America going to market through a system of branded e-commerce websites and relationship marketers. The Company operates in three segments that are aggregated into one reportable business segment. The Company sells a wide array of industrial and maintenance, repair and operation products, markets the Company has served since 1949. Because of the large number of products and product categories the Company offers, providing information on the amount of revenue derived from transactions with external customers for each product or groupings of products is impractical. The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Indoff LLC ("Indoff"), a business-to-business direct marketer of material handling products, commercial interior products and business products with operations in North America, on May 19, 2023, for approximately $72.6 million in cash, $5.2 million of which was placed into an escrow account for two years to secure the sellers’ indemnification obligations under the purchase agreement. Under the terms of the escrow agreement the escrow amount was reduced to $2.5 million on the one year anniversary of the closing date. This acquisition expanded the Company's presence in the MRO market in North America. The Indoff accounts are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The Company's discontinued operations include its former North American Technology Group business, which was sold in December 2015 and has been winding down its operations since then. The results of the former North American Technology business are included in discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Related Party Transactions During 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred a de minimis amount of related party transactions other than those disclosed within the leases disclosure.
