Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Kirkland’s, Inc. (the “Company”) is a specialty retailer of home décor in the United States operating 426 stores in 37 states as of August 4, 2018 , as well as an e-commerce enabled website, www.kirklands.com. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Kirkland’s, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kirkland’s Stores, Inc., Kirkland’s DC, Inc., and Kirkland’s Texas, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3, 2018 . It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than those at fiscal year-end. In addition, because of seasonality factors, the results of the Company’s operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended August 4, 2018 are not indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31, resulting in years of either 52 or 53 weeks. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period when new information becomes available to management. Areas where the nature of the estimate makes it reasonably possible that actual results could materially differ from amounts estimated include, but are not limited to, impairment assessments on long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, inventory reserves, self-insurance reserves, income tax liabilities, stock-based compensation, employee bonus accruals, gift card breakage and contingent liabilities. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 , the Company concluded that it was appropriate to classify supplies inventory in prepaid expenses and other current assets instead of inventories, net, in the consolidated financial statements. The Company reclassified prior period amounts to reflect this change. This resulted in $2.1 million reclassified from inventories, net, to prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 29, 2017 , and $0.1 million reclassified from inventories, net, to prepaid expense and other current assets in the changes in assets and liabilities section of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the 26-week period ended July 29, 2017 . Also, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 , the Company reclassified supply chain and store-related depreciation expense to cost of sales whereas it was previously included in depreciation in its financial statements. The Company also reclassified prior period amounts to reflect this change. This reclassification increased cost of sales by approximately $4.9 million and $9.7 million for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended July 29, 2017 , respectively, with an equal and offsetting decrease to depreciation. This reclassification had no impact on net sales, operating loss, net loss or loss per share. |
