Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Change in Accounting Principle

During the fourth quarter ended August 31, 2019, the Company changed its accounting principle related to the presentation of third-party delivery costs associated with shipping and handling activities previously included as operating expenses in Distribution in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company now presents these expenses within Cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. In connection with the change in accounting principle, the Company also changed its definition of shipping and handling costs to include costs paid to third-party warehouse operators associated with delivering product to a customer, previously included in General and administrative, and Depreciation and amortization of the assets at the third-party warehouse, previously included in Depreciation and amortization. Under the previous definition of shipping and handling costs, the Company only included delivery costs in Distribution. The effect of the adjustment is as follows:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. ASU 2018-11 provides entities another option for transition, allowing entities to not apply the new standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. The amendments provide the option for the ASU to be applied at the beginning of the period adopted using a modified retrospective approach with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period.

On September 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 using the alternative transition method under ASU No. 2018-11, which permits application of the new lease guidance at the beginning of the period of adoption, with comparative periods continuing to be reporting under Topic 840. Upon adoption, the Company recorded the following within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet: operating lease right-of-use assets of $5.1 million included within Other long-term assets, current operating lease liabilities of $2.0 million included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, long-term operating lease liabilities of $3.8 million included within Other long-term liabilities, finance lease right-of-use assets of $1.2 million included within Property and equipment, net, current finance lease liabilities of $0.2 million included within Current maturities of long term debt, and long-term finance lease liabilities of $1.0 million included within Long-term debt less current maturities. Following the Acquisition of Quest, the Company recorded the following amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the closing date on November 7, 2019: operating lease right-of-use assets of $21.1 million included within Other long-term assets, current operating lease liabilities of $2.0 million included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities of $18.9 million included within Other long-term liabilities. The adoption of these ASUs did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.

The guidance provided a number of optional practical expedients in adoption. The Company elected to adopt the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the standard, which among other things, permits it to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs under the new standard. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, the latter not being applicable. Additionally, the Company elected to include both lease and non-lease components as a single component for all asset classes in which the Company is the lessee. For additional information regarding leases, refer to Note 9.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU simplifies aspects of share-based compensation issued to non-employees by aligning the guidance with accounting for employee share-based compensation. The Company adopted this ASU as of the first day of fiscal 2020. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted this ASU as of the first day of fiscal 2020. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
