Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Acquisitions Acquisitions
None of the below acquisitions were significant to our consolidated financial statements, and, therefore, pro-forma financial information is not presented. All of our provisional purchase accounting estimates for the acquisitions completed in fiscal 2023 are based on the information and data available to us as of the time of the issuance of these financial statements, and in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification Topic 805-10-25-15, are subject to change within the first 12 months following the acquisition as we gain additional data.

Each of the following Retail acquisitions completed in fiscal 2023 and 2022 reflect a core component of our strategic priorities, which is to grow our company-owned retail business and leverage our integrated retail model (where we earn a combined profit on both the wholesale and retail sales) in suitable geographic markets, alongside the existing La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® network.
Barboursville, West Virginia acquisition

On December 12, 2022, we completed our acquisition of the Barboursville, West Virginia business that operates one independently owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store. This acquisition did not have a meaningful impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Spokane, Washington acquisition

On September 26, 2022, we completed our acquisition of the Spokane, Washington business that operates one independently owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store and one distribution center for $4.7 million, subject to customary adjustments. We paid total cash of $4.0 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and the remaining consideration includes forgiveness of accounts receivable and payments based on working capital adjustments.

Prior to this acquisition, we licensed to the counterparty the exclusive right to own and operate La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores (and to use the associated trademarks and trade name) in the Spokane, Washington market, and we reacquired these rights when we consummated the transaction. The reacquired rights are indefinite-lived because our Retailer Agreements are perpetual agreements that have no specific expiration date and no renewal options. The effective settlement of these arrangements resulted in no settlement gain or loss as the contractual terms were at market. We recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $1.2 million related to these reacquired rights. We also recognized $3.0 million of goodwill in our Retail segment related primarily to synergies we expect from the integration of the acquired store and future benefits of these synergies. For federal income tax purposes, we will amortize and appropriately deduct all of the indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill assets over 15 years.
