Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests [Abstract] |
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest | Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Certain minority shareholders in the Company's subsidiary Herman Miller Consumer Holdings, Inc. have the right, at specified times over a period of time, to require the Company to acquire portions of their ownership interest in those entities at fair value. Their interests in these subsidiaries are classified outside permanent equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are carried at the current estimated redemption amounts. The redemption amounts are estimated based on the fair value of the subsidiary, which is determined based on a weighting of the discounted cash flow and market methods. The discounted cash flow analysis uses the present value of projected cash flows and a residual value. A market-based approach is used to determine the discount rate for the discounted cash flow method. Market multiples for comparable companies are used for the market method of valuation. The fair value of the subsidiary is sensitive to changes in projected revenues and costs, the discount rate and the forward multiples of the comparable companies. Changes in the estimated redemption amounts of the noncontrolling interests, subject to put options, are reflected at each reporting period with a corresponding adjustment to Retained earnings. Future reductions in the carrying amounts are subject to a “floor” amount that is equal to the fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests at the time they were originally recorded. See Note 16 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Changes in the Company’s Redeemable noncontrolling interests for the years ended June 1, 2019 and June 2, 2018 are as follows:
