Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Hasbro, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries ("Hasbro" or the "Company") as of July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022, and the results of its operations and cash flows and shareholders' equity for the periods then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The quarters ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 were each 13-week periods. The six-month periods ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 were 27-week and 26-week periods, respectively.
The results of operations for the quarter ended July 2, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year 2023, nor were those of the comparable 2022 period representative of those actually experienced for the full year 2022.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company's significant accounting policies are summarized in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2022 ("2022 Form 10-K").
Impairment of Film and TV Reporting Unit
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred following a downward revision of the Company's financial forecast for its Film and TV business, driven by challenging industry conditions that include the ongoing strike by the Writers Guild of America. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative impairment test and determined that the Film and TV reporting unit within the Company's Entertainment segment, was impaired. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded pre-tax non-cash impairment charges of $296.2 million as the carrying value of the Film and TV reporting unit exceeded its expected fair value, as determined using a discounted cash flow model which is primarily based on management’s future revenue and cost estimates. These impairment charges consisted of a $231.2 million goodwill impairment charge associated with goodwill assigned to the Company's Film and TV reporting unit, recorded within Impairment of Goodwill and a $65.0 million intangible asset impairment charge related to the Company's definite-lived intangible eOne Trademark, recorded in Selling, Distribution and Administration costs, within the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023.
D&D Beyond Acquisition
On May 19, 2022, the Company acquired D&D Beyond, a strategic, complementary acquisition of the premier digital content platform for DUNGEONS & DRAGONS. The all-cash transaction in the purchase amount of $146.3 million was funded with cash on hand. The final allocation of assets acquired included $81.4 million to intangible assets, $64.7 million to goodwill, with the remainder allocated to property, plant, and equipment, all of which are included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of June 26, 2022.
Blueprint 2.0 and Operational Excellence
In October 2022, following a several months long strategic review of our business led by our CEO, the Company announced a new strategic plan guided by our new Blueprint 2.0, a consumer-centric framework for bringing compelling and expansive brand experiences to audiences around the world. During the review, with the assistance of a third party consultant, the Company identified opportunities to focus and scale its business, enhance operational excellence, including through specialized organizational programs and supply chain transformation, to drive growth and profit and enhance shareholder value. The Company is increasing strategic investment in its most valuable and profitable franchises across toys, games, entertainment and licensing, and exiting certain non-core aspects of the business.
Brand Portfolio Realignment
Effective for the first quarter 2023, we realigned our brand portfolios to correspond with the evolution of our Blueprint 2.0 strategy. We are focusing on fewer, bigger, more profitable brands that showcase our leadership in preschool toys, action figures and accessories, games, arts & crafts, and outdoor action brands.
Our new product categories beginning in the first quarter of 2023 are as follows:
Franchise Brands - A refreshed group of our most financially significant brands which we consider to have the greatest long-term potential including DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, Hasbro Gaming, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, NERF, PEPPA PIG, PLAY-DOH, and TRANSFORMERS.
Partner Brands - The Partner Brands category includes those brands we license from other parties such as Disney's STAR WARS and MARVEL brands as well as other partners, for which we develop toy and game products, with a focus on those key Partner Brands that give us the largest growth potential and where we can lead and innovate in the category.
Portfolio Brands - Our Portfolio Brands category includes those brands we own or control which we feel have upside in revenue and profitability that have not yet grown to the significance of a franchise brand.
Non-Hasbro Branded Film & TV - The Non-Hasbro Branded Film & TV category includes non-Hasbro-branded film, TV and other entertainment related revenues. All Hasbro-branded content is included in the portfolios noted above.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company filed with the SEC audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2022 in its 2022 Form 10-K, which includes all such information and disclosures and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the financial information included herein.
