Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of American Vanguard Corporation and Subsidiaries (“AVD” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of consolidating adjustments, eliminations, normal recurring accruals, and immaterial restatements) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual reports. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Transformation — Transformation expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations include costs related to the Company’s digital and structural transformation project. The digital transformation effort is intended to ensure that business process owners have access to current and complete data that has been generated through standardized systems and processes. The structural transformation effort is intended to improve operating leverage by applying business analytics to current operations, structures, products and services and identifying process improvements. Transformation expenses primarily include costs for consulting services. Severance costs relating to the Company’s former CEO, which were incurred in connection with the staffing and execution of the Company’s transformation initiatives, are also included in the transformation expenses. The prior year transformation expenses have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. Recent Issued Accounting Guidance — In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The ASU includes amendments requiring enhanced income tax disclosures, primarily related to standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning with the Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its income tax disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses", and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date". ASU 2024-03 requires public companies to disclose, in interim and reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the financial statements. For public business entities, ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements. Immaterial restatements — Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company determined that it did not appropriately account for outstanding checks in the amount of $6,317 as of March 31, 2024. Specifically, the Company included these outstanding checks in long-term debt instead of accounts payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024. This error resulted in misstatements of the changes in accounts payable and borrowings under line of credit agreements in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the period ended March 31, 2024. Therefore, the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 has been restated from the amounts previously reported. The table below summarizes the effects of the restatement by financial-statement line item affected:
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 |
|  | Previously Reported |  |  | Adjustments |  |  | As Restated |
(Decrease) increase in accounts payable |  | $ | (3,951 | ) |  | $ | 6,317 |  |  |  | 2,366 |
Net cash used in operating activities |  | $ | (42,424 | ) |  | $ | 6,317 |  |  | $ | (36,107 | )
Borrowings under line of credit agreement |  | $ | 83,463 |  |  | $ | (6,317 | ) |  |  | 77,146 |
Net cash provided by financing activities |  | $ | 47,699 |  |  | $ | (6,317 | ) |  | $ | 41,382 |
The Company evaluated the materiality of this error and concluded that it was not material to the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements.
