SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The Company follows accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The FASB establishes accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, which the Company is required to follow. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in these footnotes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which serves as a single source of authoritative non-SEC accounting and reporting standards to be applied by non-governmental entities. Beginning in 2019, the Company began reporting all dollar amounts in millions. In certain circumstances, this change in rounding resulted in prior year disclosures being removed. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements, as well as in the Notes thereto, have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company aligned the consolidation of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries in the consolidated financial statements which previously included results on a one-month reporting lag. The Company believes that this change in accounting principle is preferable, as all of the Company's subsidiaries are now reported based on the same period-end, which improves overall financial reporting to investors by providing the most current information available. In accordance with applicable accounting literature, the elimination of a one month reporting lag of a subsidiary is treated as a change in accounting principle and requires retrospective application. The Company has determined that the effect of this change is not material to the financial statements for all periods presented and therefore, the Company has not presented retrospective application of this change. The net impact of the elimination of the reporting lag of $0.6 million of loss for the month of December 2019 has been included within "Other income, net" on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in the fourth quarter of 2019.
Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and any partially-owned subsidiaries that the Company has the ability to control. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from such estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017 was recognized under ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, (ii) delivery occurred or services were rendered, (iii) the price was fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability was reasonably assured.
ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, was adopted for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018. Per the new standard, the Company determines revenue recognition by applying the following steps: (i) identify the contract with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and (v) recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.
The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied. The Company's primary performance obligation to its customers is the delivery of products. Control of the products sold typically transfers to the customer upon shipment or delivery depending on the shipping terms of the underlying contract.
Each customer contract sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under that arrangement. Some customer arrangements include variable consideration, such as volume rebates, some of which depend upon the customers meeting specified performance criteria, such as a purchasing level over a period of time. The Company uses judgment to estimate the most likely amount of variable consideration at each reporting date. When estimating variable consideration, the Company applies judgment when considering the probability of whether a reversal of revenue could occur and only recognize revenue subject to this constraint.
The Company uses historical customer return data as a basis of estimation for customer returns and records the reduction of sales at the time revenue is recognized. Customer returns have historically not been significant. The Company may receive deposits from customers before revenue is recognized, thus resulting in the recognition of a contract liability (customer deposits).
Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling of products are included in sales and the related costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. If shipping activities are performed after a customer obtains control of a product, the Company applies a policy election to account for shipping and handling as an activity to fulfill the promise to transfer the product to the customer.
The Company applies an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer.
The Company has elected the practical expedient permitted in ASC 340-40-25-4, which permits an entity to recognize incremental costs to obtain a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period will be less than one year.
The Company has elected the practical expedient permitted in ASC 606-10-32-18, which allows an entity to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if a contract has a duration of one year or less. As the Company’s contracts are typically less than one year in length, consideration will not be adjusted. The Company’s contracts generally include a standard payment term of 30 days, consequently there is no significant financing component within its contracts.
Contract Balances
The Company has contract assets consisting of Customer receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheets which represent the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services rendered to its customers.
When the Company receives deposits, the recognition of revenue is deferred and results in the recognition of a contract liability (Customer deposits) presented as a component of Other Current Liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subsequent recognition of revenue and the satisfaction of the contract liability is typically less than one year as the Company’s standard contract is less than one year.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for losses associated with accounts receivable balances that are estimated to be uncollectible. The allowance is determined through an analysis of the aging of accounts receivable and assessments of risk that are based on historical trends. The Company evaluates the past-due status of its customer receivables based on the contractual terms of sale. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. Accounts receivable and corresponding allowance for doubtful accounts are written off when the Company determines that the likelihood of recovery is remote and the Company no longer intends to expend resources to attempt collection.
Inventories
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include material, labor and overhead. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company adjusts for inventory that it believes is impaired or obsolete. Obsolescence occurs as the result of several factors, including the discontinuance of a product line, changes in product material specifications, replacement products in the marketplace and other competitive influences.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives are as follows:
Category
 
Useful Life (in years)
Leasehold improvements (1)
 
Various
Buildings
 
35-60
Building improvements
 
5-25
Office equipment
 
3-10
Software
 
3-10
Machinery and equipment
 
4-12
(1)
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the economic life of the asset or the remaining lease term.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Interest on capital projects is capitalized during the construction period.
The Company reviews the carrying values of its property and equipment for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable based on undiscounted estimated cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. The factors considered by the Company in performing this assessment include current operating results, business trends affecting the use of certain assets and other economic factors. In assessing the recoverability of the carrying value of property and equipment, the Company must make assumptions regarding future cash flows and other factors. If these estimates or the related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record an impairment loss for these assets.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment at least annually, as of October 1, and more frequently whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that a possible impairment may have been incurred. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment by way of qualitative and quantitative assessments. A qualitative assessment involves determining whether events or circumstances exist that indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on this qualitative assessment, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment is performed by determining the fair value of the Company's reporting units.
The Company estimates the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the fair values derived from both the income approach and the market approach. Under the income approach, the Company calculates the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration industry and market conditions. The discount rate is based on the weighted-average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business-specific characteristics and the uncertainty related to the businesses ability to execute on the projected cash flows. The market approach estimates fair value based on market multiples of revenue and earnings derived from comparable publicly-traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics as the reporting unit.
If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
When performing a qualitative assessment, the Company assesses numerous factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units are less than their respective carrying values. The Company considered factors that would impact the reporting unit fair values as estimated by the market and income approaches used in the last quantitative assessment. The Company reviewed current projections of cash flows and compared these current projections to the projections included in the most recent quantitative assessment and considered the fact that no new significant competitors entered the marketplace in the industry and that consumer demand for the industry’s products remains relatively constant, if not growing slightly. Also, economic factors during the year did not significantly affect the discount rates used for the valuation of these reporting units. The Company concluded that events occurring since the last quantitative assessment did not have a significant impact on the fair value of each of these reporting units. Therefore, the Company determined that it was not necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test for certain of these reporting units as the qualitative assessment indicated that it is not more than likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.
The Company assesses whether impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets, namely tradenames, exists using both the qualitative and quantitative assessments. The qualitative assessment involves determining whether events or circumstances exist that indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If based on this qualitative assessment, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment, a quantitative assessment is performed to determine whether an indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment exists. The Company tests the indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the carrying value to the fair value based on current revenue projections of the related operations, under the relief from royalty method. Any excess of the carrying value over the amount of fair value is recognized as an impairment. Any such impairment is recognized in the reporting period in which it has been identified.
Finite-lived intangible assets such as customer relationships, non-compete agreements, and licenses are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company reviews the carrying values of these assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. The Company regularly evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets.
Leases
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”). The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. A lease exists when a contract conveys to the customer the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The definition of a lease embodies two conditions: (1) there is an identified asset in the contract that is land or a depreciable asset (i.e., property, plant, and equipment), and (2) the customer has the right to control the use of the identified asset. The Company determines whether the contracts are considered an operating or finance lease. The Company does not currently have finance leases.
Operating leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets, current portion lease liability, and lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets when the lease term exceeds one year. The lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date.
Key estimates and judgments include how the Company determined (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the unpaid lease payments to present value, (2) lease term and (3) lease payments.
(1)
ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. As the majority of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable.
(2)
The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.
(3)
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives paid or payable to the lessee, variable payments that depend on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and the exercise price of the Company option to purchase the underlying asset if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.
The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received.
For operating leases, the ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured lease liability, adjusted for the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent if the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term and any unamortized initial direct costs. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Variable lease payments associated with the Company’s leases are recognized when the event, activity, or circumstance in the lease agreement on which those payments are assessed occurs. Variable lease payments are presented as operating expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income in the same line item as expense arising from fixed lease payments for operating leases.
ROU assets for operating leases are subject to the long-lived assets impairment guidance in ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment.
The Company monitors for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of a lease. When a reassessment results in the remeasurement of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding ROU asset unless doing so would reduce the carrying amount of the ROU asset to an amount less than zero. In that case, the amount of the adjustment that would result in a negative ROU asset balance is recorded in profit or loss.
The Company has lease agreements which include lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately using a relative stand-alone price basis.
On January 1, 2019 the Company adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective transition method and elected the optional transition method as defined within Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-11. As a result, the Company was not required to adjust its comparative period financial information for effects of the standard or make the new required lease disclosures for periods before the date of adoption (i.e. January 1, 2019). The Company has elected to adopt the package of transition practical expedients and, therefore, has not reassessed (1) whether existing or expired contracts contain a lease, (2) lease classification for existing or expired leases or (3) the accounting for initial direct costs that were previously capitalized. The Company did not elect the practical expedient to use hindsight for leases existing at the adoption date.
The Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for all short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with its short-term leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments associated with these leases are recognized and presented in the same manner as for all other Company leases.
Additionally, the Company applies a portfolio approach to determine the discount rate (i.e. incremental borrowing rate for leases with similar characteristics). The Company applies the incremental borrowing rate generally based on the transactional currency of the lease and the lease term.
Business Combinations
Business Combinations
The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquired business based on their estimated fair values, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Company's operating results from the date of acquisition.
Deferred Financing Fees
Deferred Financing Fees
Financing fees that are incurred by the Company in connection with the issuance of debt are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the underlying indebtedness. Deferred financing fees are presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as a direct reduction from long-term debt.
Research and Development Costs
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, and are included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined and recognized based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not some portion or all of the related tax benefit will not be realized. The need to establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets is assessed quarterly. The Company's valuation allowances are primarily attributable to net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards in certain foreign tax jurisdictions where the Company has incurred historical tax losses from operations and has determined that it is more likely than not these deferred tax assets will not be realized. The primary factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are reversals of taxable temporary timing differences, forecasts of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets.
The Company evaluates tax positions to determine whether the benefits of tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, the Company recognizes the largest amount of the benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. For tax positions that are not more likely than not to be sustained upon audit, the Company does not recognize any portion of the benefit. If the more likely than not threshold is not met in the period for which a tax position is taken, the Company may subsequently recognize the benefit of that tax position if the tax matter is effectively settled, the statute of limitations expires, or if the more likely than not threshold is met in a subsequent period.
The Company recognizes income tax-related interest and penalties in income tax expense and accrues for interest and penalties in other noncurrent liabilities.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company uses the following valuation techniques to measure fair value for its financial assets and financial liabilities:
Level 1
 
Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
 
Level 2
 
Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
 
 
Level 3
 
Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company and its subsidiaries use, as appropriate, a market approach (generally, data from market transactions), an income approach (generally, present value techniques and option-pricing models), and/or a cost approach (generally, replacement cost) to measure the fair value of an asset or liability. These valuation approaches incorporate inputs such as observable, independent market data and/or unobservable data that management believes are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to price an asset or liability. These inputs may incorporate, as applicable, certain risks such as nonperformance risk, which includes credit risk.
Derivative Instruments
Derivative Instruments
The Company utilizes derivative instruments to mitigate volatility related to interest rates on certain debt instruments. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company recognizes derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those instruments are initially reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) if they qualify for hedge accounting and are subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. Derivatives qualify for hedge accounting if they are designated as hedge instruments and if the hedge is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the cash flows of the asset or liability hedged. Hedge effectiveness is assessed on a regular basis. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in current net earnings.
Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company establishes reserves for the estimated cost of environmental, legal and other contingencies when such expenditures are probable and reasonably estimable. A significant amount of judgment is required to estimate and quantify the ultimate exposure in these matters. The Company engages outside experts as deemed necessary or appropriate to assist in the evaluation of exposure. From time to time, as information becomes available regarding changes in circumstances for ongoing issues as well as information regarding emerging issues, the potential liability is reassessed and reserve balances are adjusted as necessary. Revisions to the estimates of potential liability, and actual expenditures related to commitments and contingencies, could have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position.
Warranty
Warranty
The Company generally offers an assurance-type warranty for its products. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranties and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company's warranty liability include historical product-failure experience and estimated repair costs for identified matters. The Company regularly assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's customer receivables are comprised primarily of amounts due from independent dealers and direct customers. The Company monitors and manages the credit risk associated with the individual dealers and direct customers. The independent dealers are responsible for assessing and assuming the credit risk of their customers and may require their customers to provide deposits or other credit enhancement measures. Historically, the Company has had a concentration of federal and local government receivables; however, they carry minimal credit risk.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign Currency Translation
Results of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates during the year, while assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates as of the balance sheet dates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Transaction gains and losses resulting from exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the applicable subsidiary are included in the consolidated statements of operations, within other income, net, in the year in which the gain or loss occurs.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company recognizes compensation expense using the straight-line method over the vesting period. Compensation expense relating to restricted stock units subject to performance conditions is recognized if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur.
The fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units, excluding market-based restricted stock units, is based upon the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant.
The fair value of market-based restricted stock units is estimated at the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires management to make certain assumptions based on both historical and current data. These awards vest based upon the performance of the Company's stock price relative to a peer group. The assumptions included in the model include, but are not limited to, risk-free interest rate, expected volatility of the Company's and the peer group's stock prices, and dividend yield. The risk-free rate is based upon the applicable U.S. Treasury Note rate. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company's and peer group's stock prices. The dividend yield is based on the Company's historical data.
Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits
Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits
The Company sponsors two defined benefit pension plans, one of which was terminated during 2019, and four other post-employment benefit plans ("OPEB"), one of which was terminated during 2019. Several statistical and other factors, which attempt to anticipate future events, are used in calculating the expense and liability related to the plans. Key factors include assumptions about the expected rates of return on plan assets, discount rates, mortality rates and health care cost trend rates. The Company considers market and regulatory conditions, including changes in investment returns and interest rates, in making these assumptions.
The Company determines the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets based on aggregating the expected rates of return for each component of the plan's asset mix. The Company uses historic plan asset returns combined with current market conditions to estimate the rate of return. The expected rate of return on plan assets is a long-term assumption. The discount rate reflects the market rate for high-quality fixed income debt instruments as of the Company's annual measurement date and is subject to change each year.
Unrecognized actuarial gains and losses are recognized over the expected remaining lifetime of the plan participants. Unrecognized actuarial gains and losses arise from several factors, including experience and assumption changes with respect to the obligations of the pension and OPEB plans, and from the difference between expected returns and actual returns on plan assets. These unrecognized gains and losses are systematically recognized as a change in future net periodic pension expense in accordance with the appropriate accounting guidance relating to defined benefit pension and OPEB plans.
Key assumptions used in determining the amount of the obligation and expense recorded for the OPEB plans include the assumed discount rate and the assumed rate of increases in future health care costs. In estimating the health care cost trend rate, the Company considers actual health care cost experience, future benefit structures, industry trends and advice from its actuaries. The Company assumes that the relative increase in health care costs will generally trend downward over the next several years, reflecting assumed increases in efficiency and cost-containment initiatives in the health care system.
In accordance with the appropriate accounting guidance, the Company has recognized the funded status (i.e., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligation) of the defined benefit pension and OPEB plans in the consolidated balance sheets. To record the unfunded status of the plans, the Company recorded an additional liability and an adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Other changes in the benefit obligation including net actuarial loss (gain) and prior service cost (credit) are recognized in other comprehensive income.
The actuarial assumptions the Company used in determining the pension and OPEB retirement benefits may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, higher or lower withdrawal rates, or longer or shorter life spans of participants. While the Company believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions could materially affect the financial position or results of operations.
Segment Information
Segment Information
The Company has two reportable segments: Office and Lifestyle. The Office reportable segment is comprised of the operations of the Office operating segment. The Lifestyle reportable segment is an aggregation of the Lifestyle, Europe Studio, and Muuto operating segments. All unallocated expenses are included within Corporate.
The Office reportable segment includes a complete range of workplace products that address diverse workplace planning paradigms. These products include: systems furniture, seating, storage, tables, desks and KnollExtra® accessories as well as the international sales of our North American Office products. The Office segment includes DatesWeiser and Fully. DatesWeiser, known for its sophisticated meeting and conference tables and credenzas, sets a standard of design, quality and technology integration. Fully is an e-commerce furniture brand selling height-adjustable desks, ergonomic chairs and accessories principally for individual home offices and small businesses.
The Lifestyle reportable segment aggregates three operating segments: Lifestyle, Europe Studio and Muuto. The Lifestyle reportable segment products, which are distributed in North America and Europe, include iconic seating, lounge furniture, side, café and dining chairs as well as conference, training, dining and occasional tables, lighting, rugs, textiles, high-quality fabrics, felt, leather and related architectural products.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company changed the structure of its internal organization, resulting in a change to the composition of its reportable segments. DatesWeiser is now a component of the Office operating segment, as opposed to the Lifestyle operating segment. As a result of this change in segment reporting, the Company retrospectively revised prior period results, by segment, to conform to current period presentation.
Corporate costs include unallocated costs relating to shared services and general corporate activities such as legal expenses, acquisition expenses, certain finance, human resources, administrative and executive expenses and other expenses that are not directly attributable to an operating segment. Dedicated, direct selling, general and administrative expenses of the segments are included within segment operating profit. Management regularly reviews the costs included in the Corporate function and believes disclosing such information provides more visibility and transparency of how the chief operating decision maker reviews the results for the Company.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted and Adopted
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology for measuring and recognizing credit losses with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) which modifies the disclosure requirements of fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. For public companies the ASU removes disclosure requirements for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value and clarifies that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. The ASU adds the disclosure requirement for changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe there will be a material impact to the consolidated financial statements as a result of adopting this ASU.
Accounting Standards Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance codified in ASC 842, Leases, which supersedes the guidance in ASC 840, Leases. ASC 842 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, and the Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach. The Company recorded lease liabilities of $119.3 million, with an offsetting increase to the right-of-use assets of $101.7 million, for all leases with an initial term of greater than twelve months regardless of their classification as of January 1, 2019.
In 2018, the FASB issued clarifying guidance to the topic in ASUs No. 2018-10 and No. 2018-11, which clarified certain aspects of the new leases standard and provided an optional transition method. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients and adopted utilizing the optional transition method defined within ASU 2018-11 on January 1, 2019. The Company did not elect the hindsight expedient. The adoption of the standard did not materially impact the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income or Cash Flows.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock compensation (Topic 718) which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions resulting from expanding the scope of Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees.
