Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Lease obligations The Company leases warehouse space, office space and equipment under various capital and operating leases over periods ranging from one to ten years. Certain of these leases provide for scheduled rent increases based on price-level factors. The Company generally does not enter into leases that call for contingent rent. In most cases, the Company expects that, in the normal course of business, leases will be renewed or replaced. Net rent expense relating to the Company’s non-cancelable operating leases for the three fiscal years ended May 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 was $24.2, $24.8 and $30.3, respectively. Amortization of assets under capital leases covering land, buildings and equipment was $0.2, $0.8 and $1.1 for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in Depreciation and amortization expense. The following table sets forth the aggregate minimum future annual rental commitments at May 31, 2015 under non-cancelable operating leases for the fiscal years ending May 31:

The Company had open standby letters of credit of $5.3 and $5.3 issued under certain credit lines as of May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These letters of credit are scheduled to expire within one year; however, the Company expects that substantially all of these letters of credit will be renewed, at similar terms, prior to expiration. Contingencies Various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business are pending against the Company. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has occurred and the amount of such liability can be reasonably estimated. When only a range can be estimated, the most probable amount in the range is accrued unless no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, in which case the minimum amount in the range is accrued. Legal costs associated with litigation loss contingencies are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. The Company does not expect, in the case of those various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business where a loss is considered probable or reasonably possible, that the reasonably possible losses from such claims and lawsuits (either individually or in the aggregate) would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
