Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | BlueLinx Holdings Inc., including consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading wholesale distributor of residential and commercial building products in the United States. The Company is a two-step distributor and purchases products from manufacturers and distributes those products to dealers and other suppliers in local markets, who then sell those products to end users. The Company carries a broad portfolio of both branded and private-label stock keeping units (“SKUs”) across two principal product categories: specialty products and structural products. Specialty products include items such as engineered wood, siding, moulding and millwork, outdoor living, specialty lumber and panels, and industrial products. Structural products include items such as lumber, plywood, oriented strand board, rebar, and remesh. The Company also provides a wide range of value-added services and solutions aimed at relieving distribution and logistics challenges for its customers and suppliers, while enhancing their marketing and inventory management capabilities. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the interim reporting guidance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company is composed of a single reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2023 contained herein was derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 20, 2024. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the reporting periods presented. The Company has condensed or omitted certain notes and other information from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report. Therefore, these condensed financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. The results for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 28, 2024, or any other interim period. The Company operates on a 5-4-4 fiscal calendar and its fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31st of each year and may comprise 53 weeks in certain years. Fiscal 2024 contains 52 weeks and will end on December 28, 2024. Fiscal 2023 contained 52 weeks and ended on December 30, 2023.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates based on assumptions about current and, for some estimates, future economic and market conditions, which affect reported amounts and related disclosures in the Company’s financial statements. Although current estimates contemplate current and expected future conditions, as applicable, it is reasonably possible that actual conditions could differ from management’s expectations, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted | Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted Segment Reporting Improvements. On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting—Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). The FASB issued the new guidance primarily to provide financial statement users with more disaggregated expense information about a public business entity’s (“PBE”) reportable segment(s). This ASU will require PBEs to provide incremental disclosures related to the entity’s reportable segment(s), including disclosures for expenses that are both 1) significant to each reportable segment and are provided regularly to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) or easily computed from information regularly provided to the CODM and 2) included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss used by the CODM to assess performance and allocate resources. If a PBE does not disclose any significant segment expenses for a reportable segment, it is required to disclose narratively the nature of the expenses used by the CODM to manage each segment’s operations. Under the provisions of this ASU, all of the disclosures required in the segment guidance, including disclosing a measure of segment profit or loss used by the CODM and reporting significant segment expenses, applies to all PBEs, including those with a single operating or reportable segment. However, this ASU does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments. ASU 2023-07 will be effective for the Company’s annual reporting period for fiscal 2024 and all interim reporting periods beginning in fiscal 2025. At adoption, the disclosures are retrospectively presented for all comparative periods presented. Since this new ASU addresses only disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have any material effects on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating any new disclosures that may be required upon adoption of ASU 2023-07.
Income Per Share | The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. For rounding purposes when calculating earnings per share, the Company’s policy is to round down to the whole cent. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share using the treasury stock method whereby net income for the period is divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period including the dilutive effect, if any, of shares of stock associated with unvested share-based grants. However, for share-based grants that vest in whole or in part based on performance metrics, their dilutive effect is included only after the performance metrics have been achieved.
