Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms "Winnebago Industries," "WGO," "we," "us," and "our" in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements refers to Winnebago Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All adjustments were comprised of normal recurring adjustments, except as noted in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 25, 2018. Fiscal Period We follow a 52-/53-week fiscal year, ending the last Saturday in August. Fiscal 2019 is a 53-week year, while Fiscal 2018 was a 52-week year. The extra (53rd) week in Fiscal 2019 will be recognized in our fourth quarter. Subsequent Events In preparing the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of this filing. There were no material subsequent events. New Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires an entity to recognize both assets and liabilities arising from financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. This ASU and the related amendments must be adopted on a modified retrospective basis to either each prior reporting period presented or as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Based on the effective dates, we expect to adopt the new guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020 using the modified retrospective basis as of the beginning of the period of adoption. We have established an implementation plan and have made progress on this plan including surveying our businesses, assessing our lease population, and compiling information on our active leases. In addition, we are determining needed changes to our policies, business processes, internal controls, and disclosures. Based on our analysis, we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (our Fiscal 2020), including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt the new guidance in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, and we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, we adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which establishes a comprehensive five-step model for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. This model is based on the core principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We elected the modified retrospective method of adoption, which we applied to contracts not completed as of the initial date of adoption. Application of the transition requirements had no material impact on operations or beginning retained earnings. While certain control processes and procedures were updated for this adoption, the changes did not have a material impact on our internal control over financial reporting framework. Also in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, we retrospectively adopted ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230), which provides guidance for eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact our statements of cash flows, and no cash flow reclassifications were required for the prior period.
