Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The Business Combination, completed as of June 7, 2021, was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, JIH is treated as the acquired company and Midco is treated as the acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes (the “Combined Company”). Midco has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on an evaluation of the following facts and circumstances: •Janus Midco equityholders have the majority ownership and voting rights in the Combined Company. The relative voting rights is equivalent to equity ownership (each share of common stock is one vote). JIH shareholders (IPO investors, founders, PIPE investors) hold 49.2% voting interest compared to Janus Midco’s 50.8% voting interest. •The board of directors of the Combined Company is composed of nine directors, with Janus Midco equity holders having the ability to elect or appoint a majority of the board of directors in the Combined Company. •Janus Midco’s senior management are the senior management of the Combined Company. •The Combined Company has assumed the Janus name. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of the Combined Company represent a continuation of the financial statements of Midco with the acquisition being treated as the equivalent of Midco issuing stock for the net assets of JIH, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of JIH were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Midco is deemed to be the predecessor of the Company, and the consolidated assets and liabilities and results of operations prior to the Closing Date are those of Midco. The shares and corresponding capital amounts and net income per share available to common stockholders, prior to the Business Combination, have been retroactively restated to reflect the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination Agreement. One-time direct and incremental transaction costs incurred by the Company were recorded based on the activities to which the costs relate and the structure of the transaction. The costs relating to the issuance of equity is recorded as a reduction of the amount of equity raised, presented in additional paid in capital, while all costs related to the warrants and contingent consideration were estimated and charged to expense.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company’s joint venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification	Reclassification On the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the Company reclassified prior year “Intangible asset” account balances to conform to the current year presentation. Refer to Note 5, Acquired Intangible Assets and Goodwill, for the separate intangible assets’ account balances. On the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company made reclassifications to the comparable years ended January 1, 2022 and December 26, 2020 to conform with the current year presentation. The change had no impact on Cash Flows Provided By Operating Activities, Cash Flows Used In Investing Activities, or Cash Flows Provided By (Used) in Financing Activities.
Use of Estimates in the Consolidated Financial Statements	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. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, income taxes and the effective tax rates, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the fair value of contingent consideration and earnout, the fair value of assets and liabilities related to acquisitions, the derivative warrant liability, the recognition and valuation of unit-based compensation arrangements, the useful lives of property and equipment, estimated progress toward completion for certain revenue contracts, allowances for uncollectible receivable balances, fair values and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill and assumptions used in the recognition of contract assets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the Company did not have any cash equivalents. 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 and cash equivalent 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 and Allowance for Credit Losses Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company determines the estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. Every quarter, the Company evaluates the customer group using the accounts receivable aging report and its best judgment when considering changes in customers' credit ratings, level of delinquency, customers' historical payments and loss experience, current market and economic conditions, and expectations of future market and economic conditions. The Company reserves 100% of the amounts deemed uncollectible. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined that internal collection efforts should no longer be pursued. On January 2, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326) (“CECL”), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The new model uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements section of this note for more information on the impact to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company gathered information about its current bad debt reserve and write-off practices and loss methodology, in-scope assets, historical credit losses, proposed pooling approach and expected changes to business practices under CECL. Accounts receivables are stated at estimated net realizable value from the sale of products and services to established customers. The Company determined that pooling accounts receivable by business units was the most appropriate because of the similarity of risk characteristics within each line such as customers and services offered. Historical losses and customer-specific reserve information that are used to calculate the historical loss rates are available for each business unit. During the pooling process, the Company identified two distinct customer types: commercial and self-storage. As these customer types have different risk characteristics, the Company concludes to pool the financial assets at this level within each business unit. Commercial customers typically are customers contracting with the Company on short-term projects with smaller credit limits and overall, smaller project sizes. Due to the short-term nature and smaller scale of these types of projects, the Company expects minimal write-offs of its receivables at the commercial pool. Self-storage projects typically involve general contractors and make up the largest portion of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. These projects are usually longer-term construction projects and billed over the course of construction. Credit limits are larger for these projects given the overall project size and duration. Due to the longer-term nature and larger scale of these types of projects, the Company expects a potential for more write-offs of its receivable balances within the self-storage pool. The Company reviewed methods provided by the guidance and determined to use the loss-rate method in the CECL analysis for trade receivables and contract assets. This loss-rate method was selected as there is reliable historical information available by business unit, and this historical information was determined to be representative of the Company’s current customers, products, services, and billing practices.
Inventories	InventoriesInventories are measured using either the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or average cost. Labor and overhead costs associated with inventory produced by the Company are capitalized. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment Property and equipment acquired in business combinations are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date and are subsequently stated less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment otherwise acquired are stated at cost 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	Business Combinations We account for business acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, "Business Combinations". This standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Certain provisions of this standard prescribe, among other things, the determination of acquisition date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration) and the exclusion of transaction costs from acquisition accounting. The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed involves assessments of factors such as the expected future cash flows associated with individual assets and liabilities and appropriate discount rates at the acquisition date. Results of operations for acquired companies are included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.
Goodwill	Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combination. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment annually at the beginning of the fiscal year fourth quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it’s more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is below its carrying amount, as set forth in ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.” The Company tests for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level, which is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. The amount of goodwill acquired in a business combination that is assigned to one or more reporting units as of the acquisition date is the excess of the purchase price of the acquired businesses (or portion thereof) included in the reporting unit, over the fair value assigned to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed from a market participant perspective. Goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit(s) expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination even though other assets or liabilities of the acquired entity may not be assigned to that reporting unit. ASC 350 allows an optional qualitative assessment as part of annual impairment testing, prior to a quantitative assessment test, to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount. If a qualitative assessment determines an impairment is more likely than not, the Company is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. Alternatively, the Company may elect to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test. In conducting a qualitative assessment, the Company analyzes actual and projected growth trends for net sales and margin for each reporting unit, as well as historical performance versus plan and the results of prior quantitative tests performed. Additionally, the Company assesses factors that may impact its business, including macroeconomic conditions and the related impact, market-related exposures, plans to market for sale all or a portion of the business, competitive changes, new or discontinued product lines, changes in key personnel, and any potential risks to projected financial results. If performed, the quantitative test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss in the amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We determine the fair value of each reporting unit by weighting the results of the income approach and the market approach. Based upon our review and analysis, no impairments were deemed to have occurred during any of the years presented. Refer to Note 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further detail.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets Intangible assets relate to the value associated with our customer relationships, non-compete agreements, and tradenames and trademarks, and other intangibles, at the time of acquisition through business combinations. The Company determined the fair value of intangible assets acquired through an income approach, using the excess earnings method for customer relationships. Under the excess earnings method, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining economic life. The relief from royalty method was used to determine the fair value of tradenames and trademarks. The valuation models were based on estimates of future operating projections of the acquired business as well as judgments on the discount rates used and other variables. We determined the forecasts based on a number of factors, including our best estimate of near-term sales expectations and long-term projections, which include review of internal and independent market analyses. The discount rate used was representative of the weighted average cost of capital. The Company regularly evaluates the amortization period assigned to each intangible asset to ensure that there have not been any events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives. Refer to Note 5, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further detail.
Lease Assets	Lease Assets 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 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842 on January 2, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach and, as a result, did not restate prior periods. 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. We record our operating lease right of use ("ROU") assets and liabilities at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. 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. The ROU asset also includes any lease prepayments and initial direct costs, offset by lease incentives. Any renewal or termination options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The Company does not consider renewal periods or early terminations to be reasonably certain and are thus not included in the lease term for real estate or equipment assets. While some leases provide for variable payments, they are not included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities because they are not based on an index or rate. We have made an accounting policy election to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities with a term of 12 months or less unless the lease includes an option to renew or purchase the underlying asset that are reasonably certain to be exercised. 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. For all of our leases, we apply a practical expedient to include these non-lease components in calculating the ROU asset and lease liability. As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for our leases, we apply a portfolio approach using an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the initial present value of lease payments over the lease terms on a collateralized basis over a similar term. 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 16, Leased Assets for additional details.
Accounting for Income Taxes	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.
Revenue Recognition/Shipping and Handling (Revenue & Cost of Sales)	Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations with the customer are satisfied. Under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” a performance obligation is a promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Our performance obligations include material and installation. Material revenue is recognized at a point in time when delivery of the material to the customer takes place, which is either FOB shipping point or FOB destination. Installation services revenue is recognized over time as the customer benefits based upon a cost-to-cost input method for all elements of the contract. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the standalone selling price for material is readily observable and selling price for installation is estimated by maximizing observable inputs with consideration of market conditions, entity-specific factors, and information about the customer or class of customer. Our revenues are generated from contracts with customers and the nature, timing, and any uncertainty in the recognition of revenues is not affected by the type of good, service, customer or geographical region to which the performance obligation relates. Payment terms are short-term, are customary for our industry and in some cases, early payment incentives are offered. Janus’s contracts typically are less than one year in length and do not have significant financing components. For installation services that are not complete at the reporting date, we recognize revenue over time utilizing a cost-to-cost input method as we believe this represents the best measure of when goods and services are transferred to the customer. When this method is used, we estimate the costs to complete individual contracts and record as revenue that portion of the total contract price that is considered complete based on the relationship of costs incurred to date to total anticipated costs. Under the cost-to-cost method, the use of estimated costs to complete each contract is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue and can change throughout the duration of a contract due to contract modifications and other factors impacting job completion. Our cost estimation process is based on the knowledge, significant experience and judgement of project management, finance professionals and operational management to assess a variety of factors to determine revenues on uncompleted contracts. Such factors include historical performance, costs of materials and labor, change orders and the nature of the work to be “performed.” Contract assets are disclosed as costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, and contract liabilities are disclosed as billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company derives subscription revenue from continued software support and through the Nokē Smart Entry System, a product which provides mobile access for tenants and remote monitoring and tracking for operators. We determine standalone selling price for recurring software revenue by using the adjusted market assessment approach. The recurring revenue recognized from the Nokē Smart Entry System for the years ended December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022, and December 26, 2020 was $1,312, $715 and $255, respectively. 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. Commissions to internal and external sales representatives are considered costs to obtain contracts. As these contracts are less than one year, these costs are expensed as incurred. Shipping and Handling (Revenue & Cost of Sales)The Company records all amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling as revenue earned for the goods provided. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales.
Product Warranties	Product WarrantiesThe Company records a liability for product warranties at the time of the related sale of goods. The liability is estimated using historical warranty experience, projected claim rates and expected costs per claim. The Company adjusts its liability for specific warranty matters when they become known and the exposure can be estimated. Product failure rates as well as material usage and labor costs incurred in correcting a product failure affect the Company's warranty liabilities. If actual costs differ from estimated costs, the Company must make a revision to the warranty liability.
Advertising costs	Advertising costsThe Company records all advertising related costs to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income during the year incurred and they are included in the selling and marketing line.
Stock Compensation	Stock Compensation We recognize expense for share-based compensation plans based on the estimated fair value of the related awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Pursuant to our incentive stock plans, we can grant stock options, restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to employees and our non-employee directors. The majority of our awards are restricted stock units granted to employees, which vest over four years. We charge compensation expense under the plan to earnings over each award’s individual vesting period. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. See “Note 12. Equity Compensation” for additional information.
Deferred Finance Fees	Deferred Finance Fees Deferred financing fees consist of loan costs, which are being amortized on the effective interest method over the life of the related debt. During the year ended January 1, 2022, the Company incurred approximately $4,322 in deferred finance fees in connection with the 2021 debt transactions. There were no additional deferred finance fees capitalized for the year ended December 31, 2022 . Debt issuances are more fully described in Note 8 Line of Credit and Note 9 Long-Term Debt.
Fair Value Measurement	Fair Value Measurement The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. A three-tiered hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. This hierarchy requires that the Company use observable market data, when available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value: •Level 1, observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; •Level 2, inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and •Level 3, unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires that the Company develop its own assumptions. The fair value of the Company’s debt approximates its carrying amount as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 due to its variable interest rate that is tied to the current London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) rate plus an applicable margin and consistency in our credit rating. To estimate the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, the Company utilized fair value based risk measurements that are indirectly observable, such as credit risk that falls within Level 2 of the Fair Value hierarchy. For the year ended January 1, 2022, the public warrants were valued at market price. The fair value of the private warrants contains significant unobservable inputs including the expected term and volatility. Therefore, the private warrant liabilities were evaluated to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The fair value of private warrants is estimated using a Binomial Lattice in a risk-neutral framework. Specifically, the future stock price of the Company is modeled assuming a Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) in a risk-neutral framework. For each modeled future price, the warrant payoff is calculated based on the contractual terms, and then discounted at the term-matched risk-free rate. Finally, the fair value of the private warrants was calculated as the probability-weighted present value over all future modeled payoffs.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of recoverability is required, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with the asset group are compared to the asset group’s carrying amount to determine if an impairment is required. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the fair value. No impairment was recorded during any of the fiscal years presented.
Warrant Liability	Warrant Liability The Company classifies Private Placement Warrants (defined and discussed in Note 13 - Stockholders’ Equity) as liabilities. At the end of each reporting period, changes in fair value during the period are recognized as a component of other income (expense), net within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company continued adjusting the warrant liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of a) the exercise or expiration of the warrants or b) the redemption of the warrants, at which time the warrants will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital. On October 13, 2021, Janus announced that it would redeem all of its outstanding Private and Public warrants to purchase shares of Janus’s common stock that were issued pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2021 by and between Janus and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agent”) and the Warrant Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021, by and between Janus and the Warrant Agent, for a redemption price of $0.10 per Warrant (the “Redemption Price”), that remain outstanding at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on November 12, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”). Since all of the Private Placement Warrants were exercised or redeemed by January 1, 2022, the associated warrant liabilities were reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
Foreign Currency Translation	Foreign Currency Translation The local currency is the functional currency for all of the Company’s foreign operations. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet reporting date, while income and expenses are translated at the average monthly exchange rates during the period. Adjustments from the translating financial statements in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars are recorded in other comprehensive income. The income tax effect of currency translation adjustments related to foreign subsidiaries that are not considered indefinitely reinvested is recorded as a component of deferred taxes with an offset to other comprehensive income. We record gains and losses from changes in exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the reporting location’s functional currency in Other income (expense), in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
Concentrations of Risk	Concentrations of Risk Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed the insured limits of the local country. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company sells its products and services mainly in the United States and European regions. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require its customers to provide collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2021 and January 1, 2022 no customer accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable balance
Segments	Segments The Company manages its operations through two operating and reportable segments: Janus North America and Janus International. These segments align the Company’s products and service offerings based on the geographic location between North America and International locations which is consistent with how the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), reviews and evaluates the Company’s operations. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the financial performance of each operating segment. The Company’s segments are strategic businesses that are managed separately because each one develops, manufactures and markets distinct products and services. Refer to Note 20, Segments, for further detail.
Emerging Growth Company	Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The Company qualifies as an “Emerging Growth Company” and has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows the Company to adopt the new or revised standard at the same time periods as private companies.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements/Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The new model uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13, as subsequently amended for various technical issues, is effective for emerging growth companies following private company adoption dates for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted this standard effective January 2, 2022 using the modified retrospective method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment increasing accumulated deficit and increasing the allowance for credit losses by $366. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This update removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test under current guidance, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. The new guidance requires an impairment charge to be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. Upon adoption, the guidance is to be applied prospectively. ASU 2017-04 is effective for Emerging Growth Companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 2, 2022. The standard had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Leases (Topic 842) which deferred the effective date for ASC 842, Leases, for one year. The leasing standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted the leasing standard effective January 2, 2022 and has elected to adopt the new standard at the adoption date using the modified retrospective method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to increase accumulated deficit in the amount of $556. Under this approach, we will continue to report comparative period financial information under ASC 840. We have elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allows us to carry forward the historical lease classification. We also made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheet. We will recognize those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As part of this adoption, we have implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information. The adoption of the standard resulted in recording right-of-use assets of $42,835 and lease liabilities of $44,776 as of January 2, 2022. The right-of-use assets are lower than the lease liabilities as existing deferred rent and lease incentive liabilities were recorded against the right-of-use assets at adoption in accordance with the standard. The standard had no impact on our debt-covenant compliance under our current agreements. In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. ASU 2021-04 addresses issuer’s accounting for certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options. ASU 2021-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 2, 2022. The standard had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2021-08"), which amends ASC 805, Business Combinations (Topic 805), to add contract assets and contract liabilities to the list of exceptions to the recognition and measurement principles that apply to business combinations and to require that an acquiring entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASC 606"). Under current GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes such items at fair value on the acquisition date. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Janus will be applying the pronouncement prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This standard provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2021-01”). The amendments in ASU 2021-01 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference the LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. The provisions must be applied at a Topic, Subtopic, or Industry Subtopic level for all transactions other than derivatives, which may be applied at a hedging relationship level. In December 2022, the FASB, issued ASU 2022-06, which deferred the sunset date of this guidance from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this adoption will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 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.
