Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revision to Consolidated Statements of Income The Company has historically presented its sales and costs of state fish and game licenses, duck stamps, and state government-mandated firearm background checks in net sales and cost of goods sold under the gross method. Subsequent to filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015, the Company’s management determined that the revenue from these transactions should have been presented under the net method, thereby recognizing only the commission received in net sales for acting as the agent under the principal versus agent model. This revision does not have any impact upon gross profit, net income or earnings per share. The following table provides a reconciliation of the revision for the year ended January 30, 2016 as reported in the consolidated statement of income included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015, which was filed with the SEC on March 24, 2016: As Previously For the thirteen weeks ended January 30, 2016 Reported Revision As Revised Net sales $ $ $ Cost of goods sold Gross profit — As Previously For the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016 Reported Revision As Revised Net sales $ $ $ Cost of goods sold Gross profit — As Previously For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015 Reported Revision As Revised Net sales $ $ $ Cost of goods sold Gross profit — Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of its four wholly owned subsidiaries, Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc. (“Sportsman’s Warehouse”), Pacific Flyway Wholesale, LLC (“Pacific Flyway”), Sportsman’s Warehouse Southwest, Inc., and Minnesota Merchandising Corporation. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Fiscal Year The Company operates using a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal years 2016, 2015 and 2014 ended on January 28, 2017, January 30, 2016, and January 31, 2015, respectively and each contain 52 weeks of operations. Seasonality The Company’s business is generally seasonal, with a significant portion of total sales occurring during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Segment Reporting The Company operates solely as a sporting goods retailer whose Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated and individual store and cost center basis, for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company’s stores typically have similar square footage and offer essentially the same general product mix. The Company’s core customer demographic remains similar chainwide, as does the Company’s process for the procurement and marketing of its product mix. Furthermore, the Company distributes its product mix chainwide from a single distribution center. Given that the stores have the same economic characteristics, the individual stores are aggregated into one single operating and reportable segment. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers cash on hand in stores and highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents. Checks issued pending bank clearance that result in overdraft balances for accounting purposes are classified as accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with the terms of a financing agreement (Note 9), the Company maintains depository accounts with two banks in a lock-box arrangement. Deposits into these accounts are used to reduce the outstanding balance on the line of credit as soon as the respective bank allows the funds to be transferred to the financing company. At January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the combined balance in these accounts were $6,138 and $5,939, respectively. Accordingly, these amounts have been classified as a reduction in the line of credit as if the transfers had occurred on January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. Accounts Receivable The Company offers credit terms on the sale of products to certain government and corporate retail customers and requires no collateral from these customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon historical experience and a specific review of accounts receivable at the end of each period. Actual bad debts may differ from these estimates and the difference could be significant. At January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. Merchandise Inventories Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company estimates a provision for inventory shrinkage based on its historical inventory accuracy rates as determined by periodic cycle counts. The allowance for damaged goods from returns is based upon historical experience. The Company also adjusts inventory for obsolete or slow moving inventory based on inventory productivity reports and by specific identification of slow moving or obsolete inventory. The inventory reserves for shrinkage, damaged, or obsolescence totaled $6,539 and $4,306 at January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Leasehold improvements primarily include the cost of improvements funded by landlord incentives or allowances. Maintenance, repairs, minor renewals, and betterments are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the respective accounts and the related gains or losses are credited or charged to earnings. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives of the improvements or the term of the lease. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment, are depreciated over useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets with definite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances may indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or group of assets over their remaining useful lives in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent of other groups of assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell. No impairment charge to long-lived assets was recorded during the fiscal years ended January 28, 2017, January 30, 2016 or January 31, 2015. Prepaid Expenses and Other Prepaid expenses and other primarily consists of prepaid expenses, vendor rebates receivable, vendor advertising receivables and miscellaneous deposits. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized for retail sales at the time of the sale in the store. The Company records a reserve for estimated product returns in each reporting period, based on its historical experience. The Company’s sales returns reserve was $964 and $799 at January 28, 2017, and January 30, 2016, respectively. Revenue for gift cards sold is deferred and recognized as the gift cards are redeemed for merchandise. Gift card breakage income is recognized based upon historical redemption patterns and represents the balance of gift cards for which the Company believes the likelihood of redemption by the customer is remote. During the fiscal years ended January 28, 2017, January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015, the Company recognized $347, $846, and $833 of gift card breakage income, respectively. This income is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a reduction in selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”). In November of 2013, the Company launched a customer loyalty program. Under this program, the Company issues credits in the form of points to loyalty program members. The value of points earned by loyalty program members is included in accrued liabilities and recorded as a reduction of net sales at the time the points are earned. Loyalty breakage income is recognized based upon the balance of loyalty points that have expired after a dormancy period of 18 months. During the fiscal year ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company recognized $611 and $232, respectively of loyalty breakage income. This income is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as an increase in net sales. Customer deposits on items placed in layaway are recorded as a liability. Revenue is recognized on layaway transactions at the point where the customer takes possession of the merchandise. These liabilities are recorded as unearned revenue in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and, therefore, are excluded from net sales in the consolidated statements of income. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold primarily consists of merchandise acquisition costs, including freight-in costs, shipping costs, terms discounts received from the vendor and vendor allowances and rebates associated directly with merchandise. Vendor allowances include allowances and rebates received from vendors. The Company records an estimate of earned allowances based on purchase volumes. These funds are determined for each fiscal year, and the majority is based on various quantitative contract terms. Amounts expected to be received from vendors relating to purchase of merchandise inventories are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Historical program results and current purchase volumes are reviewed when establishing the estimate for earned allowances. Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs All shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as a component of net sales. All costs incurred related to the shipping and handling of products are recorded in cost of sales. Vendor Allowances Vendor allowances include price allowances, volume rebates, store opening costs reimbursements, marketing participation and advertising reimbursements received from vendors under the terms of specific arrangements with certain vendors. Vendor allowances related to merchandise are recognized as a reduction of the costs of merchandise as sold. Vendor reimbursements of costs are recorded as a reduction to expense in the period the related cost is incurred based on actual costs incurred. Any cost reimbursements exceeding expenses incurred are recognized as a reduction of the cost of merchandise sold. Volume allowances may be estimated based on historical purchases and estimates of projected purchases. Operating Leases and Deferred Rent The Company has various operating lease commitments on its store locations. Certain leases contain rent escalation clauses that require higher rental payments in later years. Leases may also contain rent holidays, or free rents, during the lease term. Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Rent expense in excess of rental payments is recorded as deferred rent on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Tenant Allowances The Company enters into various types of lease agreements in the operation of its stores, including remodel and build-to-suit arrangements. Under any type of lease agreement, the Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for some of the costs related to occupancy or tenant improvements per lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances or landlord reimbursements. Reimbursement from a landlord for occupancy or tenant improvements is treated differently depending on the type of arrangement. Under most of the Company’s lease agreements, tenant allowances are included within deferred rent on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deferred rent credit is amortized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Landlord reimbursements from these transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities as a change in deferred rent. In lease agreements where the Company is the deemed owner of the building during the construction period, a deemed sale-leaseback of the building occurs when construction is complete and the lease term begins. Under these lease agreements, as the tenant allowances are received, the value of the Company’s construction-in-progress or leasehold improvements is reduced accordingly. The deemed sale-leaseback transactions are included in cash flows from investing activities. Health Insurance The Company maintains for its employees a partially self-funded health insurance plan. The Company maintains stop-loss insurance through an insurance company with a $100 per person deductible and aggregate claims limit above a predetermined threshold. The Company intends to maintain this plan indefinitely. However, the plan may be terminated, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time for any reason specified by the Company. The Company has established reserve amounts based upon claims history and estimates of claims that have been incurred but not reported (“IBNR”). As of January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company estimated the IBNR to be $1,001 and $980, respectively. Actual claims may differ from the estimate and such difference could be significant. These reserves are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Workers Compensation Insurance Effective November 1, 2014, the Company maintains for its employees a high-deductible workers compensation plan. The Company maintains stop-loss insurance through an insurance company with a $150 per claim deductible and aggregate claims limit above a predetermined threshold. The Company intends to maintain this plan indefinitely. However, the plan may be terminated, modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time for any reason specified by the Company. Prior to November 1, 2014, the Company operated under a guaranteed cost insurance program. The Company has established reserve amounts based upon claims history and estimates of IBNR. As of January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, the Company estimated the IBNR to be $650 and $527, respectively, related to the workers compensation plan. Actual claims may differ from the estimate and such difference could be significant. These reserves are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Advertising Costs for newspaper, television, radio, and other advertising are expensed in the period in which the advertising occurs. The Company participates in various advertising and marketing cooperative programs with its vendors, who, under these programs, reimburse the Company for certain costs incurred. Payments received under these cooperative programs are recorded as a decrease to expense in the period that the advertising occurred. For the fiscal years ended January 28, 2017, January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015, net advertising expenses totaled $7,513, $6,634, and $4,629, respectively. These amounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Stock-Based Compensation Compensation expense is estimated based on grant date fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite service or offering period. Costs associated with awards are included in compensation expense as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2016-09”). This standard is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, and classifications in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. Management has evaluated this statement and early adopted the provision in the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 had an effect on the presentation of the Company’s results of operations. In connection with the vesting of restricted stock units in the 52 weeks ended January 28, 2017, under the transition guidance the Company has prospectively recorded $470 in income tax benefits as a reduction of income taxes payable and as a reduction in income tax expense with no significant impact on earnings per share. In prior periods presented, the income tax benefits were recorded to additional paid-in-capital instead of income tax expense as specified in the new standard. The Company is no longer required to present excess tax benefits as a financing activity in the statement of cash flows and has elected to adopt this change on a prospective basis. ASU 2016-09 allows for the election to either record forfeitures as they occur or to continue estimating the level of forfeitures consistent with current accounting standards. The Company has elected to record forfeitures as they occur which change did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Income Taxes The Company recognizes a deferred income tax liability or deferred income tax asset for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement basis of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred income tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. During the year the Company adopted ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , and has elected a prospective adoption and as such prior period were not retrospectively adjusted on our financial statements. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the relevant tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Interest and potential penalties are accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of financial instruments except for long-term debt approximate fair value because of the general short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of long-term variable rate debt approximate fair value as the terms are consistent with market terms for similar debt instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments approximates fair value as of January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding, reduced by shares repurchased and held in treasury, during the period. Diluted earnings per share represents basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding share option awards, nonvested share awards and nonvested share unit awards. Comprehensive Income The Company has no components of income that would require classification as other comprehensive income for the fiscal years ended January 28, 2017, January 30, 2016 or January 31, 2015. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Deferral of the Effective Date” (“ASU 2015-14”). ASU 2015-14 simply formalized a one year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 “Principal versus Agent Considerations – Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net”, amending the principal-versus-agent implementation guidance set forth in ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”, which amends certain aspects of the guidance set forth in the FASB’s new revenue standard related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. As a result of these four standards updates, the Company expects that it will apply the new revenue standard to annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In adopting these standard updates, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. Management is evaluating the provisions of these standard updates and has determined that the Company will adopt this standard prospectively. Management has not yet determined what impact the adoption of these standard updates will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”). Under ASU 2015-11, inventory will be measured at the “lower of cost and net realizable value” and options that currently exist for “market value” will be eliminated. ASU 2015-11 defines net realizable value as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business , less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.” No other changes were made to the current guidance on inventory measurement. ASU 2015-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted and should be applied prospectively. Management has determined that the adoption of ASU 2015-11 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company will adopt ASU 2015-11 in the first quarter in fiscal year 2017. Lease Accounting In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”). The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 will be effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019. Early adoption of ASU 2016-02 is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including whether to elect the practical expedients outlined in the new standard. The Company does expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements once adopted. Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, “Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products” (“ASU 2016-04”). ASU 2016-04 entitles a company to derecognize amounts related to expected breakage in proportion to the pattern of rights expected to be exercised by the product holder to the extent that it is probable a significant reversal of the recognized breakage amount will not subsequently occur. ASU 2016-04 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. Management believes ASU 2016-02 will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). The update amends the guidance in ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows , and clarifies how entities should classify certain cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practices related to eight specific cash flow issues. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Management has determined this will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs In April 2015, the “Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 retrospectively in the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2016. For the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016, the Company reclassified deferred financing fees of $350 from prepaid expenses to the current portion of long-term debt, net of discount and debt issuance costs. The Company also reclassified $1,347 of deferred financing fees from other long-term assets, net to long-term debt, net of discount, debt issuance costs, and current portion. |
