Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of presentation | We prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Luxfer Holdings PLC and all wholly-owned, majority owned or otherwise controlled subsidiaries on the same basis as our annual audited financial statements, except for the adoption for Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, "current expected credit loss model". We condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which we prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Our quarterly financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. As used in this report, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Luxfer" and "the Company" mean Luxfer Holdings PLC and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning. In the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for presentation of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.
Fiscal year | Our fiscal year ends on December 31. We report our interim quarterly periods on a 13-week quarter basis, ending on a Sunday. The First Quarter, 2020, ended March 29, 2020, and the First Quarter, 2019, ended March 31, 2019.
Adoption of new accounting standards and Accounting standards issued but not yet effective | Adoption of new accounting standards Current expected credit loss ("CECL") model On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, financial instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of credit losses on Financial Instruments prospectively. The ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss impairment model for financial instruments, including trade receivables.
• | Under the CECL model, the Company is required to consider whether expected credit losses should be recognized for trade receivables that are considered “current” (i.e., not past due).
• | When using historical loss rates in a provision matrix, the Company is required to consider whether and, if so, how the historical loss rates differ from what is currently expected over the life of the trade receivables (on the basis of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future).
Upon adoption, there was no adjustment made to opening retained earnings as at January 1, 2020. As a result of implementing ASU 2016-13, the Company did not recognize any material additional allowance within Accounts and Other Receivables as at January 1, 2020. Accounts and Other Receivables are shown net of a $1.9 million allowance at March 29, 2020. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products. The Company’s expected loss allowance methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers' trade accounts receivables. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of accounts receivable amounts that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted. Estimates are used to determine the allowance. It is based on assessment of anticipated receipts and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available. The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected.
