[1] | During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company early adopted authoritative guidance which addresses certain stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) resulting from the Tax Reform enacted in December 2017. As a result, the Company recorded a cumulative adjustment to increase retained earnings by $1.2 million with a corresponding reduction to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and its interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge based in the U.S.
