Basis Of Presentation [Abstract] |
Basis Of Presentation | NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION General Franklin Covey Co. (hereafter referred to as us, we, our, or the Company) is a global company focused on organizational performance improvement. Our mission is to “enable greatness in people and organizations everywhere,” and our global structure is designed to help individuals and organizations achieve sustained superior performance through changes in human behavior. We are fundamentally a content and solutions company, and we believe that our offerings and services create the connection between capabilities and results. We have a wide range of content delivery options, including: the All Access Pass (AAP) subscription, the Leader in Me membership, and other intellectual property licenses; digital online learning; on-site training; training led through certified facilitators; blended learning; and organization-wide transformational processes, including consulting and coaching. We believe our investments in digital delivery modalities over the past few years have enabled us to deliver our content to clients in a high-quality learning environment whether those clients are working remotely or in a centralized location. We believe that our clients are able to utilize our content to create cultures whose hallmarks are high-performing, collaborative individuals, led by effective, trust-building leaders who execute with excellence and deliver measurably improved results for all of their key stakeholders. We have some of the best-known offerings in the training industry, including a suite of individual-effectiveness and leadership-development training content based on the best-selling books, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, The Speed of Trust, The Leader in Me, The 4 Disciplines of Execution, and Multipliers, and proprietary content in the areas of Execution, Sales Performance, Productivity, Educational Improvement, and Customer Loyalty. Our offerings are described in further detail at www.franklincovey.com. The information posted on our website is not incorporated into this report. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company as of the dates and for the periods indicated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and regulations. The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the quarter and two quarters ended February 28, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the entire fiscal year ending August 31, 2022, or for any future periods. Note on the Continuing COVID-19 Pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic continues to produce difficult economic and operating conditions for certain areas of our business, including our international direct offices and licensee partners as countries and local municipalities have maintained a variety of measures designed to contain the spread of the virus. These measures included the closure of offices, schools, and other meeting spaces. These efforts persist in the face of new variants, increasing cases, and ongoing uncertainty regarding the pandemic. While our content is able to be presented digitally and is translated into numerous languages, the technology base differs significantly among countries, which may impede the smooth delivery of content to remote work locations. We remain optimistic about the future as we continue to see signs of economic recovery in the United States and many of the other countries in which we operate as companies, schools, and individuals are adapting, and the positive effect of vaccinations and therapeutics are enabling some economies to open and recover. However, emerging variants continue to create uncertainty and many countries, states, and local governments may continue to implement additional lockdowns or other containment measures in future periods. These measures change rapidly to new and perceived threats and may have an adverse impact on our results of operations in future periods. We will continue to monitor developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including supply chain issues, and their actual and potential impacts on our financial position, results of operations, and liquidity. Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Adopted In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions within ASC 740, Income Taxes, and clarifies certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The guidance in ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, although early adoption is permitted. Most amendments within the standard are required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
