Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation These unaudited consolidated financial statements of Ennis, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company,” “Registrant,” “Ennis,” or “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the period ended November 30, 2019 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2019, from which the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2019 was derived. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. In preparing the financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure and reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, including those related to bad debts, inventory valuations, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, pension plan, accrued liabilities, and income taxes. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (“ASU 2018-14”), which removes certain disclosures that are no longer cost beneficial and also includes additional disclosures to improve the overall usefulness of the disclosure requirements to financial statement users. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-14 on the consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). The standard is effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including during an interim period. This new standard requires changes to disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for certain Level 3 items, and specifies that some of the changes must be applied prospectively, while others should be applied retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the standard, but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its financial statement disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-03, Accounting for Credit Losses (Topic 326). The standard requires a valuation allowance for credit losses be recognized for certain financial assets that reflects the current expected credit loss over the asset’s contractual life and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning with December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The valuation allowance considers the risk of loss, even if remote, and considers past events, current conditions and expectations of the future. The Company is currently evaluating the standard and its effect on the Company’s financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which modifies the lease recognition requirements and requires entities to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet and to disclose key qualitative and quantitative information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. Based on the original guidance in ASU 2016-02, lessees and lessors would have been required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach, including a number of practical expedients. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (“ASC 842”): Targeted Improvements, which provides entities with an option to apply the guidance prospectively, instead of retrospectively, and allows for other classification provisions. The Company adopted this guidance as of March 1, 2019, using the optional transition method and elected the option to not apply ASC 842 to comparative periods, which continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company elected the ‘package of practical expedients’ as lessee, which permits it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company elected to treat lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets of $18.0 million and operating lease liabilities of $18.2 million. The difference between the leased assets and lease liabilities represents the existing deferred rent liabilities balance at adoption, resulting from historical straight line recognition of operating leases, which was reclassified upon adoption to reduce the measurement of the leased assets. The adoption of the standard did not have an impact on the Company’s shareholders’ equity, statement of operations, or cash flows.
