Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
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 (collectively, the “Company”) as of July 2, 2021 and June 26, 2020, and their results of operations for the three and nine month periods then ended and cash flows for the nine month periods 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 2, 2020 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 11, 2020. Due to seasonal variations and other factors, some of which are described herein, including related to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and resulting pandemic, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended July 2, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the Company’s full 2021 fiscal year. See "Coronavirus (COVID-19)" below and “Seasonality” and "Coronavirus (COVID-19)" in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included elsewhere herein for additional information. The Company considers all short-term investments in interest-bearing accounts and all securities and other instruments with an original maturity of three months or less, to be equivalent to cash. Cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates market value. All monetary amounts, other than share and per share amounts, are stated in thousands.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) | Coronavirus (COVID-19) In March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized the current coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as a global pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activity, including imposing travel restrictions, issuing quarantine, shelter-in-place and stay at home orders and guidelines and related actions, mandating mask wearing, limiting business capacity and generally restricting freedom of movement, in order to promote social distancing and other similar programs all in an effort to slow the spread of the illness. While some government mandates eased in the latter half of fiscal 2020, these mandates continued to emphasize social distancing measures to the general public. As a result, in the latter part of fiscal 2020 we saw increased participation in fishing, camping and watercraft recreation and the related demand for our products in these business segments, largely driven by consumer desire to engage in socially distant and safe activities in the great outdoors. This trend in increased demand for our outdoor recreation products continued into fiscal 2021. Despite the availability of vaccines, and the overall reduction in restrictions on economic and social activities that were implemented at the start of the pandemic, COVID-19 continues to be a serious global health concern and has a significant impact on macroeconomic and societal developments, including on economic activity and supply chain continuity, in various key regions of the world and related to certain raw materials and components. As a result, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Company operations and profitability for the remainder of fiscal 2021 and beyond as the situation is dynamic and constantly changing. The Company will continue to monitor evolving economic and general business conditions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic and the actual and potential impacts on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Recently adapted and issued accounting pronouncements | Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-10 Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU 2018-11 Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements. In February 2019, the FASB also issued ASU 2019-01 Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements. This ASU and the updates to this ASU require organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about leasing arrangements. This guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, and may be applied through a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements with certain practical expedients available. The Company adopted the provisions of these ASU's using the modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2020, coinciding with the standard's effective date. The additional disclosures required by the ASU and its updates are included in Note 18 "Leases" of these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)” and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 (collectively Topic 326). Topic 326 requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. This replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected loss model and requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. This guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, and must be adopted by applying a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, however the ASU did not have a significant impact on its financial statements, and therefore no adjustment to retained earnings was necessary. Recently issued accounting pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans (Topic 715), which modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined pension or postretirement plans. The amendments in this guidance are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its disclosures. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes. It removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of the new guidance to have a significant impact on its financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 is intended to provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments in this guidance were effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its financial statements and disclosures.
Revenues | Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our goods at a point in time based on shipping terms and transfer of title. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. The amount of consideration received can vary, primarily because of customer incentive or rebate arrangements. The Company estimates variable consideration based on the expected value of total consideration to which customers are likely to be entitled based on historical experience and projected market expectations. Included in the estimate is an assessment as to whether any variable consideration is constrained. Revenue estimates are adjusted at the earlier of a change in the expected value of consideration or when the consideration becomes fixed. For all contracts with customers, the Company has not adjusted the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component as the period between the transfer of the promised goods and the customer's payment is expected to be one year or less. Sales are made on normal and customary short-term credit terms, generally ranging from 30 to 90 days, or upon delivery of point of sale transactions. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company enters into contractual arrangements with customers in the form of individual customer orders which specify the goods, quantity, pricing, and associated order terms. The Company does not have contracts which are satisfied over time. Due to the nature of these contracts, no significant judgment exists in relation to the identification of the customer contract, satisfaction of the performance obligation, or transaction price. The Company expenses incremental costs of obtaining a contract due to the short-term nature of the contracts. Estimated costs of returns, allowances and discounts, based on historic experience, are accrued as a reduction to sales when revenue is recognized. The Company provides customers the right to return eligible products under certain circumstances. At July 2, 2021, the right to returns asset was $1,105 and the accrued returns liability was $3,043. At June 26, 2020, the right to returns asset was $1,082 and the accrued returns liability was $3,207. The Company also offers assurance-type warranties relating to its products sold to end customers that continue to be accounted for under ASC 460 Guarantees. The Company generally accounts for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment activity, consistent with the timing of revenue recognition; that is, when a customer takes control of the transferred goods. In the event that a customer were to take control of a product upon or after shipment, the Company has made an accounting policy election to treat such shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in "Net Sales," and shipping and handling costs are recognized within "Marketing and selling expenses" in the same period the related revenue is recognized.The Company has a wide variety of seasonal, outdoor recreation products used primarily for fishing from a boat, diving, paddling, hiking and camping, that are sold to a variety of customers in multiple end markets. Nonetheless, the revenue recognition policies are similar among all the various products sold by the Company.
