Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The ODP Corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries, “ODP” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of products, services and technology solutions through an integrated business-to-business (“B2B”) distribution platform and omni-channel presence, which includes supply chain and distribution operations, dedicated sales professionals, online presence, and a network of Office Depot and OfficeMax retail stores. Through its operating companies ODP Business Solutions, LLC; Office Depot, LLC; and Veyer, LLC, The ODP Corporation empowers every business, professional, and consumer to achieve more every day. The Company has three reportable segments (or “Divisions”), which are ODP Business Solutions Division, Office Depot Division, and Veyer Division. Refer to Note 4 for additional information. On April 24, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors provided their approval of management’s commitment to a plan to sell its Varis Division through a single disposal group. Accordingly, Varis Division is presented as discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2024. The Company has reclassified the financial results of the Varis Division to discontinued operations, net of tax in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The Company also reclassified the related assets and liabilities as assets and liabilities held for sale on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 28, 2024, and December 30, 2023. Cash flows from the Company’s discontinued operations are presented as such in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for all periods. The Varis Division was subsequently sold on October 18, 2024. Refer to Note 12 for additional information. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 28, 2024, and for the 13-week and 39-week periods ended September 28, 2024 (also referred to as the “third quarter of 2024” and “year-to-date 2024,” respectively), and September 30, 2023 (also referred to as the “third quarter of 2023” and “year-to-date 2023,” respectively) are unaudited. However, in management’s opinion, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to provide a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company has prepared the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Some information and note disclosures, which would normally be included in comprehensive annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those SEC rules and regulations. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. For a better understanding of the Company and its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recommends reading these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the audited financial statements, which are included in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that should be expected for the full year.
Cash Management | CASH MANAGEMENT The cash management process generally utilizes zero balance accounts which provide for the settlement of the related disbursement and cash concentration accounts on a daily basis. Amounts not yet presented for payment to zero balance disbursement accounts of $11 million and $13 million at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, are presented in Trade accounts payable and Accrued expenses and other current liabilities. At September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents held outside the United States amounted to $58 million and $106 million, respectively. Year-to-date 2024, the Company repatriated $25 million cash that was held in Canada, for a cost of $1 million. The Company has certain ongoing pension obligations related to its frozen defined benefit pension plan in the United Kingdom (“UK”). Restricted cash consists primarily of cash in bank committed to fund UK pension obligations based on the agreements that govern the UK pension plan. Restricted cash is valued at cost, wh ich approximates fair value. Restricted cash was $5 million and $3 million at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, and is presented in Other assets. In addition, $11 million and $10 million of cash at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, relates to the Varis Division and is presented in Current assets held for sale.
Revenue and Contract Balances | REVENUE AND CONTRACT BALANCES The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from contracts with customers for the sale of products and services. Refer to Note 4 for information on revenue by reportable segment and product category. Contract balances primarily consist of receivables, assets related to deferred contract acquisition costs, liabilities related to payments received in advance of performance under the contract, and liabilities related to unredeemed gift cards and loyalty programs. The following table provides information about receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:
|  | September 28, |  |  | December 30, |
(In millions) |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Trade receivables, net |  | $ | 373 |  |  | $ | 367 |
Short-term contract assets |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 4 |
Long-term contract assets |  |  | 3 |  |  |  | 1 |
Short-term contract liabilities |  |  | 26 |  |  |  | 29 |
The Company recognized revenues of $12 million and $21 million year-to-date 2024 and 2023, respectively, which were included in the short-term contract liability balance at the beginning of each respective period.
Receivables, Net | RECEIVABLES, NET In the third quarter of 2024, the Company recognized $70 million of income in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations related to legal matter monetization where the Company is engaged in legal proceedings as a plaintiff. This income is included within Receivables, net in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 28, 2024. The Company subsequently received the proceeds in October 2024.
New Accounting Standards | NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Standards that are not yet adopted: Segment Reporting: In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued an accounting standard update that modified the disclosure requirements for all public entities that are required to report segment information. The update will change the reporting of segments by adding significant segment expenses, other segment items, title and position of chief operating decision maker and how they use the reported measures to make decisions. The update also requires all annual disclosures about reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets in interim periods. This accounting update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard and believes the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. Income Taxes: In December 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by adding effects from state and local taxes, foreign tax, changes in tax laws or rates in current period, cross-border tax laws, tax credits, valuation allowances, nontaxable and nondeductible items, and unrecognized tax benefits. This update will also require separate disclosure for any reconciling items. This accounting update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard and believes the adoption will result in additional disclosures, but will not have any other impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
