| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification and Adjustments
Certain items have been reclassified in the prior year financial statements to conform to the presentation and classifications used in the current
year. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.
For the year ended December 28, 2024, the Company recorded a $2.5 out of period adjustment as a reduction in service cost of revenues with an offset to accounts payable, to adjust estimated contract costs to actual costs incurred on installation projects which were completed during the years 2017 to 2023. In addition, for the year ended December 28, 2024, the Company recorded a $3.4 out of period adjustment reflecting an increase to income tax expense to correct an error derived from a 2021 structural tax change in conjunction with the company going public.
Use of Estimates in the Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, income taxes and the effective tax rates, inventory basis adjustments, the fair value of assets, liabilities and assumptions related to business combinations, the recognition and valuation of unit-based compensation arrangements, the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment, the commencement date of leases, the incremental borrowing rate used to calculate lease liabilities, estimated progress toward completion for certain revenue contracts, allowance for credit losses, fair values and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include the Company’s short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. Interest income on cash equivalents is offset against Interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. For the year ended December 28, 2024, interest income was $2.1. There was no interest income for the years ended December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. At December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company did not have any restricted cash.
The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed the insured limits of the local country, which may lead to a concentration of credit risk. Substantially all of the Company’s cash balances were deposited with financial institutions which management has determined to be high-credit quality institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable primarily arise from the sale of products and services to established customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Additionally, accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value, net of allowance for credit losses which is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts.
During the fiscal year ended December 28, 2024, we received notice that a customer filed a petition for bankruptcy. In addition, we experienced payment delays from a number of customers, and have an elevated risk of certain customers not making payment, yielding an additional increase in the provision for expected credit losses primarily associated with a change in estimate, totaling $15.7 for the year ended December 28, 2024.
The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses using the loss-rate method. As the Company determined that its customers at various business units and sales channels share similar risk characteristics, the same loss rate is applied to all accounts receivable. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses by considering various factors such as historical write-offs, changes in customers’ credit ratings, delinquency, payment history, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current and expected economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined that internal collection efforts should no longer be pursued.
The summary of activity in the allowance for credit losses for the years ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023 is as follows:
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using actual costs determined on a first-in, first-out basis or average cost. Labor and overhead costs associated with inventory produced by the Company are capitalized into inventories.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property plant and equipment acquired in business combinations are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date and are subsequently stated less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their respective useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Business Combinations
We account for business acquisitions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations”, which requires the acquiring entity to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values. The determination of fair value involves assessment of factors such as expected future cash flows and appropriate discount rates. When observable market values are unavailable, the Company utilizes acceptable valuation principles, such as discounted cash flow methods. Consideration paid, including
contingent consideration, is measured at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed as incurred. The results of operations for acquired entities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
The Company determines the fair value of acquired intangible assets using valuation methodologies appropriate to the asset type. Customer relationships and software development costs are valued using the excess earnings method under the income approach, which calculates the present value of incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the asset over its economic life. The relief-from-royalty method is used to value tradenames and trademarks, considering market-based royalty rates and discounting future savings from owning the asset rather than licensing it. These valuation models incorporate future operating projections, discount rates, and other key assumptions, including near-term sales expectations and long-term growth projections.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets under ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other”. Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Indefinite-lived intangible assets, such as tradenames and trademarks, are recognized as part of business acquisitions. Neither goodwill nor indefinite-lived intangible assets are amortized but are tested for impairment annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is below its carrying amount.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit(s) expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. As part of the annual impairment test, the Company may first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value exceeds its carrying amount. This assessment considers factors such as actual and projected growth trends for net sales and margin, historical performance versus plan, macroeconomic conditions, market-related exposures, competitive dynamics, changes in key personnel, new or discontinued product lines, and potential risks to projected financial results. If the qualitative assessment indicates potential impairment, or if the Company elects to bypass it, a quantitative impairment test is performed.
The quantitative test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference, not exceeding the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company determines the fair value of each reporting unit using a combination of the income approach, which applies a discounted cash flow methodology, and the market approach, which considers comparable company valuations.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are also tested for impairment using a similar process. The Company may first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the asset’s fair value exceeds its carrying amount. If this assessment suggests potential impairment, or if the Company elects to bypass it, a quantitative impairment test is performed, comparing the asset’s fair value with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
Intangible Assets
The Company’s finite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, non-compete agreements, software development costs, and certain tradenames and trademarks acquired through business combinations. These assets are recorded at fair value at the acquisition date and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which reflect the period over which the assets are expected to contribute to future cash flows.
The Company regularly evaluates the assigned amortization periods to ensure they remain appropriate. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the useful life of an asset may no longer be accurate, the Company revises its estimates accordingly. Additionally, finite-lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the asset’s fair value. Refer to Note 7, Acquired Intangible Assets and Goodwill, for further details.
Leases
The Company leases certain logistics, office, and manufacturing facilities, as well as vehicles, copiers and other equipment under long-term operating and financing leases with varying terms.
We adopted the provisions of ASC 842 on January 2, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company has recognized the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company elected to adopt the package of practical expedients which apply to leases that commenced before the adoption date. By electing the package of practical expedients, the Company did not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and the initial direct costs for any existing leases.
The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception of the agreement. Lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recognized at commencement date. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of the total lease payments not yet paid based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, as the rate implicit in the lease is generally not determinable. Lease payments include only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. Rent expense commences when the lessor makes the underlying asset available to us. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not assume renewals or early terminations unless it is reasonably certain to exercise these options at commencement. ROU assets are measured based on the corresponding lease liability adjusted for: (i) payments made to the
lessor at or before the commencement date; (ii) initial direct costs; and (iii) tenant incentives under the lease. The variable portion of the lease payments is not included in the right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. Rather, variable payments, other than those dependent upon an index or rate, are expensed when the obligation for those payments is incurred. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet in accordance with the short-term lease recognition exemption.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate, and instead account for each as a single lease component. Accordingly, all expenses associated with a lease contract are accounted for as lease expenses. Non-lease components for real estate leases primarily relate to common area maintenance, insurance, taxes, utilities and non-lease components for equipment, vehicles and leases within supply agreements primarily relate to usage, repairs, and maintenance.
The Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate based on the rates of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis, over a similar term, and in a similar economic environment. We use the unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjust that rate to approximate a collateralized rate, and apply the rate based on the currency of the lease, which is updated on a quarterly basis for measurement of new lease liabilities. See Note 5, Leases, for additional details.
Accounting for Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes accrued interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits as part of Interest expense, and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as part of Other expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
Deferred Income Tax Assets and Liabilities. The carrying values of deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect the application of our income tax accounting policies in accordance with applicable accounting standards, and are based on management’s assumptions and estimates regarding future operating results and levels of taxable income, as well as management’s judgment regarding the interpretation of the provisions of applicable accounting standards. The carrying values of liabilities for income taxes currently payable are based on management’s interpretations of applicable tax laws, and incorporate management’s assumptions and judgments regarding the use of tax planning strategies in various taxing jurisdictions. The use of different estimates, assumptions and judgments in connection with accounting for income taxes may result in materially different carrying values of income tax assets and liabilities and results of operations.
We evaluate the recoverability of these deferred tax assets by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of taxable temporary differences, forecasted operating earnings and available tax planning strategies. These sources of income inherently rely heavily on estimates. We use our historical experience and our short-term and long-term business forecasts to provide insight. Further, our global business portfolio gives us the opportunity to employ various prudent and feasible tax planning strategies to facilitate the recoverability of future deductions. To the extent we do not consider it more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, a valuation allowance is established.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party’s rights and payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled.
Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account.
The Company’s performance obligations primarily include:
•Product revenues – Product revenues are recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer.
•Service revenues – Service revenues are recognized overtime as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company. Service revenues include construction, installation, and remodeling services which are recognized using a cost-to-cost input method. It also includes subscription services that are recognized over time as customers receive continuous access to the software and technical support.
The Company enters into certain contracts with customers that may include multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated based on the standalone selling price.
For revenue recognized over time, the Company utilizes the cost-to-cost input method as it provides the most accurate measure of when goods and services are transferred to the customer. Under this method, the Company estimates the costs to complete individual contracts and recognizes revenue proportionately to the total contract price deemed complete, based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs.
For performance obligations that are not complete at the reporting date, the Company recognizes contract assets or contract liabilities. Contract assets include unbilled receivables and revenues in excess of billings and represent the rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer. Unbilled receivables arise when revenue is recognized at a point in time before invoicing, representing an unconditional right to payment subject primarily to the passage of time. Revenues in excess of billings result from over-time revenue recognition, where the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Both unbilled receivables and revenues in excess of billings are recognized as accounts receivable when billed. Contract liabilities result from performance obligations recognized over time and represent the net balance of billings that already occurred in excess of revenue that was recognized. If a down payment is received from a customer before a project becomes active, it is recorded as a customer deposit within accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
The Company’s payment terms are generally up to 90 days on an open account. These payment terms are customary for the industry and, in some cases, may include early payment incentives. The Company’s contracts typically have durations of less than one year and do not contain significant financing components. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good rather than a promised service. As a result, shipping and handling costs are recorded as expenses in the same period the revenue is recognized. Sales taxes collected from customers are excluded from revenue and recorded as a liability until remitted to the appropriate tax authorities. Additionally, commissions paid to internal and external sales representatives for obtaining contracts are expensed as incurred, as the Company’s contracts are generally short-term in nature.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how a public entity’s chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted the guidance for the year ended December 28, 2024 and applied it retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon adoption, our disclosures regarding segment reporting were updated to comply with ASU 2023-07 and we have recast previously reported amounts across all reportable segments to conform to current segment presentation. The adoption of this ASU only affects our disclosures, with no impacts to our financial condition and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. ASU 2024-03 is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expense and provide more detailed information to investors about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands disclosures in a public entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and other disclosures regarding cash taxes paid both in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The update will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are assessing the effect of this update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendment in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. The ASU incorporates several disclosure and presentation requirements currently residing in the SEC Regulations S-X and S-K. The amendments will be applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulations S-X or S-K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. As we are currently subject to these SEC requirements, this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
On August 23, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement, under which an entity that qualifies as either a joint venture or a corporate joint venture as defined in the FASB ASC master glossary is required to apply a new basis of accounting upon the formation of the joint venture. Specifically, the ASU provides that a joint venture or a corporate joint venture (collectively, “joint ventures”) must initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date. The amendments are effective for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption and retrospective application of the amendments are permitted.
Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which have been adopted or will be adopted as applicable, management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
