Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis Of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Herman Miller, Inc. (“the company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Management believes the disclosures made in this document are adequate with respect to interim reporting requirements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, contain all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position of the company as of March 3, 2018. Operating results for the three and nine months ended months ended March 3, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 2, 2018. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 3, 2017. The company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to May 31. Fiscal 2018, the year ending June 2, 2018, and fiscal 2017, the year ended June 3, 2017, contain 52 and 53 weeks, respectively. The nine months ended March 3, 2018 and March 4, 2017 contained 39 and 40 weeks, respectively. The three months ended March 3, 2018 and March 4, 2017 each contained 13 weeks.
