Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation	1        Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Johnson Outdoors Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the results of operations for the three and nine months then ended and cash flows for the nine months then ended. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2010 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 9, 2010. Certain prior year and fiscal year end amounts have been reclassified to conform to the July 1, 2011 presentation.  These reclassifications were made in order to singularly present accrued warranties in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Because of seasonal and other factors, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the Company's full 2011 fiscal year.  See "Seasonality" in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information. All monetary amounts, other than share and per share amounts, are stated in thousands.
