Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements ("financial statements") of Plantronics, Inc. ("the Company") have been prepared on a basis materially consistent with the Company's March 28, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the information set forth herein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to interim financial information and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020. The results of operations for the interim period ended December 26, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any future period.The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Fiscal period

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. The Company’s current fiscal year ends on April 3, 2021 and consists of 53 weeks. The Company's prior fiscal year ended on March 28, 2020 and consisted of 52 weeks. The Company’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 both contain 13 and 39 weeks, respectively.

Risks and uncertainties

As described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020, the Company is subject to a greater degree of uncertainty than normal in making the judgments and estimates needed to apply its significant accounting policies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to assess various accounting estimates and other matters in context to the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 using information that is reasonably available as of the issuance date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on its customers and suppliers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. As of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the extent to which the pandemic may materially impact the Company's financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations is uncertain.
