Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of all the subsidiaries and investments in which a controlling interest is held by the Company. The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of stockholders’ equity and temporary equity and statements of cash flows of Limoneira Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company’s material subsidiaries include: Limoneira Mercantile, LLC, Windfall Investors, LLC (“Windfall”), Templeton Santa Barbara, LLC, Associated Citrus Packers, Inc. (“Associated”), Limoneira Chile SpA, Limoneira EA 1 Land, LLC, San Pablo and PDA, in which the Company has a 90% ownership interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company considers the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) – Accounting Standards Code (“ASC”) 810, Consolidations, and the effect of variable interest entities, in its consolidation process. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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. Accounts Receivable The Company grants credit in the course of its operations to cooperatives, companies and lessees of the Company’s facilities. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company provides allowances on its receivables as required based on accounts receivable aging and other factors. At October 31, 2018 and 2017 the allowances totaled $563,000 and $577,000 , respectively. For fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , credit losses were insignificant. Concentrations The Company sells all of its avocado production to Calavo. Sales of avocados to Calavo were $6,576,000 , $9,522,000 and $10,767,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Lemons procured from third-party growers were approximately 45% , 44% and 42% , of lemon supply in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. One third-party grower was 50% and 43% of grower payable at October 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The Company maintains its cash in federally insured financial institutions. The account balances at these institutions periodically exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. Cultural Costs Growing costs, also referred to as cultural costs, consist of orchard maintenance costs such as cultivation, fertilization and soil amendments, pest control, pruning and irrigation. Harvest costs are comprised of labor and equipment expenses incurred to harvest and deliver crops to the packinghouses. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Cultural Costs (continued) Lemons, oranges, specialty citrus and other crops such as pistachio nuts are grown in the Company’s San Joaquin Valley orchards. Additionally, lemons are grown in the Company’s Yuma County, Arizona orchards. These crops have distinct growing periods and distinct harvest and selling periods, each of which lasts approximately four to six months. During the growing period, cultural costs are capitalized as they are associated with benefiting and preparing the crops for the harvest and selling period. During the harvest and selling period, harvest costs and cultural costs are expensed when incurred and capitalized cultural costs are amortized as components of agribusiness costs and expenses. The Company grows lemons and avocados in its Ventura County orchards. Due to climate, growing conditions and the types of crops grown, the Ventura County orchards may be harvested and sold on a year-round basis. Accordingly, the Company does not capitalize cultural costs associated with its Ventura County orchards and therefore such costs, as well as harvest costs associated with the Ventura County orchards, are expensed to operations when incurred as components of agribusiness costs and expenses. Most cultural costs, including amortization of capitalized cultural costs, and harvest costs are associated with and charged to specific crops. Certain other costs, such as property taxes, indirect labor including farm supervision and management and irrigation that benefit multiple crops are allocated to crops on a per acre basis. Income Taxes Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Tax benefits from an uncertain tax position are only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at original cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method at rates based upon the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows (in years): Land improvements 10 – 30 Buildings and building improvements 10 – 50 Equipment 5 – 20 Orchards 20 – 40 Costs of planting and developing orchards are capitalized until the orchards become commercially productive. Planting costs consist primarily of the costs to purchase and plant nursery stock. Orchard development costs consist primarily of maintenance costs of orchards such as cultivation, pruning, irrigation, labor, spraying and fertilization, and interest costs during the development period. The Company ceases the capitalization of costs and commences depreciation when the orchards become commercially productive and orchard maintenance costs are accounted for as cultural costs as described above. Capitalized Interest Interest is capitalized on real estate development projects and significant construction in progress using the weighted average interest rate during the fiscal year. Interest of $2,407,000 and $2,022,000 was capitalized during the years ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, and is included in property, plant, and equipment and real estate development assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Real Estate Development Costs The Company capitalizes the planning, entitlement, construction, development costs and interest associated with its various real estate projects. Costs that are not capitalized, which include property maintenance and repairs, general and administrative and marketing expenses, are expensed as incurred. A real estate development project is considered substantially complete upon the 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Real Estate Development Costs (continued) cessation of construction and development activities. Once a project is substantially completed, future costs are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalized costs related to its real estate projects of $32,662,000 and $8,403,000 in fiscal years 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Equity in Investments Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has significant influence but less than a controlling interest, or is not the primary beneficiary if the joint venture is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”), are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, accordingly, are adjusted for capital contributions, distributions and the Company’s equity in net earnings or loss of the respective joint venture. Marketable Securities The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale. The Company’s investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value with unrealized gains (losses), net of tax, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income. At October 31, 2018 and 2017 , marketable securities are comprised of the Company’s investment in Calavo. Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including its definite-life intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of an asset are less than the carrying value of that asset, a write-down is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the asset to its fair value. Assets held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of acquired water and mineral rights, a patent and certain customer relationships, trade names and trademarks. Certain of the Company’s trade names and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated lives of eight years. The Company evaluates its indefinite-life intangible assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate an impairment of the assets’ value may exist. Goodwill Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis or when an event or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill impairment is tested at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment. Goodwill impairment is tested in a two-step process, with the first step performed to determine if there is potential for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If potential impairment is identified as indicated by the carrying value exceeding the fair value of the reporting unit, the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment to be recognized in the financial statements by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess amount. Goodwill impairment testing involves significant judgment and estimates. The annual assessment of goodwill impairment was performed as of July 31, 2018 with no impairment noted. Fair Values of Financial Instruments The fair values of financial instruments are based on level-one indicators within the fair value hierarchy or quoted market prices, where available, or are estimated using the present value or other valuation techniques. Estimated fair values are significantly affected by the assumptions used. Accounts receivable, note receivable, accounts payable, growers payable and accrued liabilities reported on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the fair value of long-term debt is approximately equal to its carrying amount as of October 31, 2018 and 2017 . Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rates as well as to maintain an appropriate mix of fixed and floating-rate debt. Contract terms of a hedge instrument closely mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Derivative Financial Instruments (continued) degree of risk reduction and correlation. Contracts that are effective at meeting the risk reduction and correlation criteria are recorded using hedge accounting. If a derivative instrument is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the instrument will be either offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or be recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of an instrument’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Instruments that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting, or contracts for which the Company has not elected hedge accounting, are valued at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported in earnings during the period of change. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) represents all changes in a company’s net assets, except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders, and is reported as a component of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Foreign Currency Translation San Pablo and PDA’s functional currency is the Chilean Peso. Their balance sheets are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and their income statements are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Revenue Recognition Revenue and related costs are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) selling price is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company records a sales allowance in the period revenue is recognized as a provision for estimated customer discounts and concessions. Agribusiness revenue - Revenue from lemon sales is generally recognized FOB shipping point when the customer takes possession of the fruit from the Company’s packinghouse. Revenue from the sales of certain of the Company’s agricultural products is recorded based on estimated proceeds provided by certain of the Company’s sales and marketing partners (Calavo and other third-party packinghouses) due to the time between when the product is delivered by the Company and the closing of the pools for such fruits at the end of each month. Calavo and other third-party packinghouses are agricultural cooperatives or function in a similar manner as an agricultural cooperative. As such, the Company applies specific authoritative agriculture revenue recognition guidance related to transactions between patrons and agriculture marketing cooperatives to record revenue at time of delivery to the packinghouses relating to fruits that are in pools that have not yet closed at month end if: (a) the related fruits have been delivered to and accepted by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses (i.e., title has transferred to Calavo and other third-party packinghouses) and (b) sales price information has been provided by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses (based on the marketplace activity for the related fruit) to estimate with reasonable certainty the final selling price for the fruit upon the closing of the pools. Historically, the revenue that is recorded based on the sales price information provided to the Company by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses at the time of delivery, have not materially differed from the actual amounts that are paid after the monthly pools are closed. The Company also earns commissions on certain brokered fruit sales, which totaled $1,084,000 , $324,000 and $263,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company’s avocados, oranges, specialty citrus and other specialty crops are packed and sold by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses. The Company delivers all of its avocado production from its orchards to Calavo. These avocados are then packed by Calavo at its packinghouse, and sold and distributed under Calavo brands to its customers primarily in the United States and Canada. The Company’s arrangements with other third-party packinghouses related to its oranges, specialty citrus and other specialty crops are similar to its arrangement with Calavo. The Company’s arrangements with its third-party packinghouses are such that the Company is the producer and supplier of the product and the third-party packinghouses are the Company’s customers. The revenues the Company recognizes related to the fruits sold to the third-party packinghouses are based on the volume and quality of the fruits delivered, the market price for such fruit, less the packinghouses’ charges to pack and market the fruit. Such packinghouse charges include the grading, sizing, packing, cooling, ripening and marketing of the related fruit. The Company bears inventory risk until product is delivered to the third-party packinghouses at which time title and inventory risk to the product is transferred to the third-party packinghouses and revenue is recognized. Such third-party packinghouse charges are recorded as a reduction of revenue based on the application of specific authoritative revenue recognition guidance entitled “Vendor’s Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Given to a 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Revenue Recognition (continued) Customer”. The identifiable benefit the Company receives from the third-party packinghouses for packaging and marketing services cannot be sufficiently separated from the third-party packinghouses’ purchase of the Company’s products. In addition, the Company is not able to reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit received from the third-party packinghouses for such services and as such, these costs are characterized as a reduction of revenue in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Revenue from crop insurance proceeds is recorded when the amount of and the right to receive the payment can be reasonably determined. The Company recorded agribusiness revenues from crop insurance proceeds of $54,000 , $74,000 and $83,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Rental operations revenue - Minimum rental revenues are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective initial lease term. Contingent rental revenues are contractually defined as to the percentage of rent received by the Company and are based on fees collected by the lessee. Such revenues are recognized when actual results, based on collected fees reported by the tenant, are received. The Company’s rental arrangements generally require payment on a monthly or quarterly basis. Real estate development revenue - The Company recognizes revenue on real estate development projects in accordance with FASB ASC 360-20, Real Estate Sales , which provides for profit to be recognized in full when real estate is sold provided that, a sale has been consummated and profit is determinable, collection of sales proceeds is estimable with the seller’s receivable not subject to subordination, risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer and the earnings process is substantially complete with no significant seller activities or obligations required after the date of sale. To the extent the above conditions are not met, a portion or all of the profit is deferred. Incidental operations may occur during the holding or development period of real estate development projects to reduce holding or development costs. Incremental revenue from incidental operations in excess of incremental costs from incidental operations is accounted for as a reduction of development costs. Incremental costs from incidental operations in excess of incremental revenue from incidental operations are charged to operations. Advertising Expense Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Such costs in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 were $107,000 , $173,000 and $264,000 , respectively. Leases The Company records rent expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date as defined in the lease agreement until the end of the base lease term. Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share Basic net income per common share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of the dilutive effect of preferred stock. Diluted net income per common share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of conversion of preferred stock. The Series B and Series B-2 convertible preferred shares were dilutive for fiscal year ended October 31, 2018 and anti-dilutive for fiscal years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Unvested stock-based compensation awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends as participating shares are included in computing earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s unvested, restricted stock awards qualify as participating shares. Defined Benefit Retirement Plan The Company sponsors a defined benefit retirement plan that was frozen in June 2004, and no future benefits have been accrued to participants subsequent to that time. Ongoing accounting for this plan under FASB ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits, provides guidance as to, among other things, future estimated pension expense, pension liability and minimum funding requirements. This information is provided to the Company by third-party actuarial consultants. In developing this data, certain estimates and assumptions are used, including among other things, discount rate, long-term rate of return and mortality tables. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Defined Benefit Retirement Plan (continued) During 2018, the Society of Actuaries (SOA) released a new mortality improvement scale table, referred to as MP-2018, which is believed to better reflect mortality improvements and is to be used in calculating defined benefit pension obligations. In addition, during fiscal year 2018 , the assumed discount rate to measure the pension obligation increased to 4.4% . The Company used the latest mortality tables released by the SOA through October 2018 to measure its pension obligation as of October 31, 2018 and combined with the assumed discount rate and other demographic assumptions, its pension liability decreased by approximately $1,454,000 as of October 31, 2018 . Further changes in any of these estimates could materially affect the amounts recorded that are related to our defined benefit retirement plan. Recent Accounting Pronouncements FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. In addition, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer (e.g., assets within the scope of Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and tangible assets within the scope of Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other) are amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement (including the constraint on revenue) in this ASU. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: • Identify the contract(s) with a customer. • Identify the performance obligations in the contract. • Determine the transaction price. • Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. • Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 (ASU 2016-08), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU 2016-08 clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 (ASU 2016-10), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. ASU 2016-10 clarifies the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations. These ASUs apply to all companies that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services. In May 2016, the FASB issued, ASU 2016-12 (ASU 2016-12), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. ASU 2016-12 provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and adds some practical expedients. The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The Company will adopt the standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2019 and anticipates using the modified retrospective method. The Company has inventoried and evaluated its current revenue streams and related contracts with customers in order to identify material differences, if any, that would result from applying the new requirements to its revenue contracts. Furthermore, the Company has evaluated the principal versus agent considerations as it relates to certain agreements with third parties and has determined that there will be an impact to the presentation of gross or net revenue reporting. The Company continues to evaluate the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements, however we do not expect the standard to have a material impact on our net consolidated results of operations or financial position and related disclosures. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) FASB ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The Company’s adoption of this ASU had no impact on its consolidated financial statements. FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. Requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets (i.e., securities or loans and receivables). Eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements, but believes the impact could be significant as the changes in the fair value of Calavo common stock will be recorded in the statement of operations. FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: • A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and • A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The ASU will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2020. The Company is evaluating the effect this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements, however it expects to apply the practical expedients provided in the ASU. Note 20 – Commitments and Contingencies – of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report describes its operating lease arrangements as of October 31, 2018 . FASB ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business This amendment clarifies the definition of a business. The amendment affects all companies and other reporting organizations that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The amendment is intended to help companies and other organizations evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) This amendment is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. For all other companies and organizations, the amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendment should be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company early adopted this ASU during the quarter ended July 31, 2018 and as a result, the purchase of San Pablo was accounted for as an acquisition of assets. FAS |

Acquisitions | Acquisitions Agriculture Property Acquisition San Pablo On July 18, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of San Pablo ranch and related assets in La Serena, Chile, for $13,000,000 . The San Pablo ranch consists of 3,317 acres on two parcels, including 247 acres producing lemons, 61 acres producing oranges, the opportunity to immediately plant 120 acres for lemon production, as well as the potential for approximately 500 acres of avocado production. This acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase and is included in property, plant and equipment in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at October 31, 2018. In addition, transaction costs of $111,000 were capitalized as part of total acquisition costs. Below is a summary of the fair value of the net assets acquired on the acquisition date based on a third-party valuation, which is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement under FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (in thousands): Cultural costs $ 579 Land and land improvements 9,114 Buildings and equipment 207 Orchards 2,058 Water rights 1,153 Total assets acquired $ 13,111 Revenue of $552,000 and net loss of $202,000 of San Pablo are included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations from the acquisition date to the period ended October 31, 2018. The unaudited, pro forma consolidated statement of operations as if San Pablo had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the years ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 results in revenue of $130,262,000 and $122,283,000 , respectively and net income of $18,784,577 and $5,862,000 , respectively. Business Combinations Oxnard Lemon On July 24, 2018, the Company and Oxnard Lemon Associates, Ltd., a California limited partnership (“Seller”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on July 26, 2018 (the “Initial Closing Date”), the Company acquired certain “hard assets” of Seller, including a packinghouse and related land (“Oxnard Lemon”), for a purchase price of $24,750,000 (the “Initial Acquisition”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the closing on the purchase and sale of the “soft assets” of Seller, including Seller’s trade names, trademarks and copyrights, took place on October 31, 2018 (the “Final Closing Date”), at which point an additional $250,000 in purchase price was paid to Seller by the Company. The aggregate purchase price for the tangible assets and the intangible assets provided in the Purchase Agreement is $25,000,000 . Additionally, the Purchase Agreement provides that Seller lease back the tangible assets from the Company until the Final Closing Date, pursuant to a lease executed on the Initial Closing Date. Transaction costs of $142,000 are included in selling, general and administrative expense. Below is a summary of the fair value of the net assets acquired on the acquisition date based on a third-party valuation, which is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement under FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (in thousands): 3. Acquisitions Business Combinations (continued) Land and land improvements $ 7,294 Buildings and equipment 14,866 Customer relationships and trade names 2,270 Goodwill 570 Total assets acquired $ 25,000 Revenue of $120,000 and net loss of $139,000 of Oxnard Lemon are included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations from the acquisition date to the period ended October 31, 2018. The unaudited, pro forma consolidated statement of operations as if Oxnard Lemon had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the years ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 results in revenue of $142,253,000 and $143,399,000 , respectively and net income of $19,728,000 and $7,474,000 , respectively. PDA On February 24, 2017 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of 90% of the outstanding stock of PDA, a privately-owned Chilean corporation, for $5,800,000 in cash (the “Acquisition”). PDA also had approximately $1,700,000 in long-term debt on the Acquisition Date, which was assumed by the Company in the Acquisition. A holdback of 10% of the purchase proceeds to be paid to the seller was withheld for a six -month period to allow for potential contingencies as defined in the purchase agreement. PDA is a 200 -acre lemon and orange orchard located near La Serena, Chile. PDA’s total assets of $9,451,000 on the Acquisition Date included a 13% equity interest in Rosales S.A. (“Rosales”) in which the Company owns a 35% equity investment. After the Acquisition, the Company owns 47% of Rosales and PDA’s 10% stockholder owns the remaining 53% of Rosales. Rosales packs and sells all of PDA’s citrus production. PDA had approximately $450,000 of net income on approximately $1,900,000 in sales for the year ended December 31, 2016. Transactions costs incurred in connection with the Acquisition in 2017 were approximately $57,000 , which are included in selling, general and administrative expense. In August 2017, a third-party valuation of the fair value of the net assets was finalized, which resulted in a $193,000 increase in the investment in Rosales with a corresponding decrease in goodwill and increase in deferred income taxes. Additionally, a $94,000 reduction in the purchase price was agreed upon per the terms of the purchase agreement with corresponding decreases in goodwill and noncontrolling interest. The Company received the $94,000 in August 2017.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Under the FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , a fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tiered hierarchy draws distinctions between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2) and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of October 31, 2018 and 2017 that are measured on a recurring basis during the period, segregated by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands): 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets at fair value: Available-for-sale securities $ 24,250 $ — $ — $ 24,250 2017 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets at fair value: Available-for-sale securities $ 22,110 $ — $ — $ 22,110 Liabilities at fair value: Derivative $ — $ 268 $ — $ 268 Available-for-sale securities consist of marketable securities in Calavo common stock. At October 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company owned 250,000 and 300,000 , respectively, shares representing approximately 1.4% and 1.7% of Calavo’s outstanding common stock. These securities are measured at fair value by quoted market prices. Calavo’s stock price at October 31, 2018 and 2017 was $97.00 and $73.70 per share, respectively.The derivative consisted of an interest rate swap, the fair value of which was estimated using industry-standard valuation models. The derivative expired in June 2018. |

Real Estate [Abstract] | |
Real Estate Development | Real Estate Development Real estate development assets are comprised primarily of land and land development costs and consist of the following at October 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 East Areas I and II $ 107,162 $ 74,500 Templeton Santa Barbara, LLC — 6,582 $ 107,162 $ 81,082 East Areas I and II In fiscal year 2005, the Company began capitalizing the costs of two real estate development projects east of Santa Paula, California, for the development of 550 acres of land into residential units, commercial buildings and civic facilities. During fiscal years 2018 and 2017 , the Company capitalized $32,662,000 and $8,403,000 , respectively, of costs related to these real estate development projects. Additionally, in relation to these projects, the Company incurred expenses of $23,000 , $113,000 and $1,161,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. On November 10, 2015 (the “Transaction Date”), the Company entered into a joint venture with The Lewis Group of Companies (“Lewis”) for the residential development of its East Area I real estate development project. To consummate the transaction, the Company formed Limoneira Lewis Community Builders, LLC (the “LLC” or “Joint Venture”) as the development entity, contributed its East Area I property to the LLC and sold a 50% interest in the LLC to Lewis for $20,000,000 , comprised of a $2,000,000 deposit received in September 2015 and $18,000,000 received on the Transaction Date. The Company received net cash of approximately $18,800,000 after transaction costs of approximately $1,200,000 , which were expensed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016. In addition, on the Transaction Date, the Company incurred a Success Fee with Parkstone Companies, Inc., in the amount of $2,100,000 , which was paid on January 28, 2016 and capitalized as a component of the Company’s investment in the East Area I property. On the Transaction Date, the LLC and Lewis also entered into a limited liability company agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) providing for the admittance of Lewis as a 50% member of the Joint Venture. The LLC Agreement provides that Lewis will serve as the manager of the Joint Venture with the right to manage, control, and conduct its day-to-day business and development activities. Certain major decisions, which are enumerated in the LLC Agreement, require approval by an executive committee comprised of two representatives appointed by Lewis and two representatives appointed by the Company. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the Joint Venture will own, develop, subdivide, entitle, maintain, improve, hold for investment, market and dispose of the Joint Venture’s property in accordance with the business plan and budget approved by the executive committee. 7. Real Estate Development (continued) East Areas I and II (continued) Further, on the Transaction Date, the Joint Venture and the Company entered into a Lease Agreement (the "Lease Agreement"), pursuant to which the Joint Venture leased certain of the contributed East Area I property back to the Company for continuation of agricultural operations, and certain other permitted uses, on the property until the Joint Venture requires the property for development. The Lease terminates in stages corresponding to the Joint Venture's development of the property, which is to occur in stages pursuant to a phased master development plan. In any event, the Lease will terminate five years from the Transaction Date. The Company and the Joint Venture also entered into a Retained Property Development Agreement on the Transaction Date (the "Retained Property Agreement"). Under the terms of the Retained Property Agreement, the Joint Venture will transfer certain contributed East Area I property, which is entitled for commercial development, back to the Company (the "Retained Property") and arrange for the design and construction of certain improvements to the Retained Property, subject to certain reimbursements by the Company. In August 2018, the Retained Property was transferred back to the Company. The Company’s sale of an interest in the LLC in which the Company’s contributed property comprises the LLC’s primary asset, combined with the Lease Agreement is considered a sale-leaseback transaction under FASB ASC 840, Leases, because of the Company’s continuing involvement in the property in the form of its agricultural operations. Accordingly, the property continues to be carried on the consolidated balance sheet as real estate development, rather than being classified as an equity investment and a sale-leaseback deferral has been recorded for the $20,000,000 payment made by Lewis for the purchase of the LLC interest. Lease expense associated with the Lease Agreement is not required under sale-leaseback accounting since the Company is treated as though it continues to own the property. During the year ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company recorded $27,934,000 and $7,047,000 , respectively, of real estate development costs and corresponding increases in the sale-leaseback deferral to recognize real estate development costs capitalized by the LLC. There are no repayment requirements for the sale-leaseback deferral and as the Lease Agreement is terminated in connection with the staged development of the property, a corresponding amount of real estate development and the sale-leaseback deferral will be adjusted to equity investments on the consolidated balance sheet. In December 2018, the Company terminated the lease per the terms of the lease agreement. In connection with the LLC Agreement, the Company was reimbursed $250,000 by the Joint Venture in January 2018 for Initial Public Safety Facility Payments made to the City of Santa Paula in October 2015. This amount was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of October 31, 2017. Additionally, the Company leases office space to Lewis and received rental income of $16,000 , $16,000 and $12,000 for the years ended October 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company determined the Joint Venture to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 810, Consolidation, because the Joint Venture will require additional subordinated financial support to finance its operations. The Company further determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as the Company and Lewis have joint control over all significant decisions affecting the Joint Venture's economic performance. Accordingly, contributions made by the Company to the LLC, the Company’s proportionate share of Joint Venture’s results of operations and distributions received by the Company from the LLC will be accounted for under the equity method. The Company made contributions of $3,500,000 and $7,450,000 for the years ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, and an additional $4,000,000 in December 2018. In January 2018, the Joint Venture entered into a $45,000,000 unsecured Line of Credit Loan Agreement and Promissory Note (the “Loan”) with Bank of America, N.A. to fund early development activities. The Loan matures in January 2020, with an option to extend the maturity date until 2021, subject to certain conditions. The interest rate on the Loan is LIBOR plus 2.85% , payable monthly. The Loan contains certain customary default provisions and the Joint Venture may prepay any amounts outstanding under the Loan without penalty. In February 2018, the obligations under the Loan were guaranteed by certain principals from Lewis and by the Company. The guarantee shall continue in effect until all of the Loan obligations are fully paid and the guarantors are jointly and severally liable for all Loan obligations in the event of default by the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture recorded the Loan balance of $36,243,000 as of October 31, 2018. The $1,080,000 estimated value of the guarantee was recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and is included in other long-term liabilities with a corresponding increase in equity in investments. The Company has elected to reduce the guarantee liability upon expiration or settlement of the guarantee. Additionally, a Reimbursement Agreement was executed between the Lewis guarantors and the Company which provides for unpaid liabilities of the Joint Venture to be shared pro-rata by the Lewis guarantors and the Company in proportion to their percentage interest in the Joint Venture. 7. Real Estate Development (continued) East Areas I and II (continued) In connection with facilitating the annexation of the East Area I property into the City of Santa Paula, during February 2013, the Company entered into a Capital Improvement Cost Sharing Agreement for Improvements to Santa Paula Creek Channel (the “Cost Sharing Agreement”) with the Ventura County Watershed Protection District (the “District”). The Cost Sharing Agreement requires the Company to reimburse the District 28.5% of the costs of the improvements, up to a maximum of $5,000,000 . Additionally, the Company is required to pay the cost of preparing a study to determine a feasible scope of work and budget for the improvements. No cost reimbursements have been incurred to date in relation to the Cost Sharing Agreement. In February 2013, the Company entered into an option agreement for the purchase of a 7 -acre parcel adjacent to its East Area II real estate development project. The Company made a $75,000 initial option payment in 2013 and four additional annual option payments of $50,000 each from 2014 to 2017. In February 2018, the Company exercised its option and purchased the property for $3,145,000 , by making a cash payment of $1,444,000 and issuing a note payable for $1,435,000 . The $275,000 of option payments were applied to the purchase price and the Company incurred $9,000 of transaction costs. The note payable is due in five years, with interest-only, monthly payments at interest rates ranging from 5.0% to 7.0% . Templeton Santa Barbara, LLC The real estate development parcels within the Templeton Santa Barbara, LLC project are described as Centennial Square (“Centennial”), The Terraces at Pacific Crest (“Pacific Crest”), and Sevilla. The net carrying values of Pacific Crest and Sevilla as of October 31, 2018 were $2,481,000 and $2,543,000 , respectively. The net carrying values of Centennial, Pacific Crest and Sevilla, as of October 31, 2017 were $2,983,000 , $3,250,000 and $4,686,000 , respectively. These projects were idle during 2018 and 2017 and, as such, no costs were capitalized. In relation to these projects, the Company incurred expenses of $104,000 , $172,000 and $174,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Additionally, the Company recognized impairment charges of $769,000 and $789,000 related to Pacific Crest and Sevilla, respectively, in fiscal year 2018 and an impairment charge of $120,000 related to Pacific Crest in fiscal year 2017. In March 2017, the Company began negotiations to sell its Centennial property for $3,200,000 . This transaction was cancelled in October 2017 because the buyer was unsuccessful in arranging financing and the Company recognized $100,000 of other income from the non-refundable deposit. In October 2017, the Company entered an agreement with another buyer to sell Centennial for $3,250,000 . This transaction closed in December 2017 with the Company receiving net proceeds of $179,000 and receiving a $3,000,000 promissory note secured by the property for the balance of the purchase price. After transaction costs, the sale resulted in a gain of $194,000 , to be recognized under the installment method, with $15,000 recognized fiscal year ended October 31, 2018 and $179,000 deferred until repayment of the promissory note. The promissory note was originally scheduled to mature in June 2018 but provided for three potential extensions to December 2019. In fiscal year 2018, per the terms of the promissory note, the holder of the note made two non-refundable $100,000 payments to the Company, extending the due date to December 30, 2018. In November 2018, the holder of the note made a non-refundable $100,000 payment, extending the due date to December 15, 2019. Interest income related to this note was $172,000 in fiscal year 2018. In August 2017, the Company entered an agreement to sell the commercial portion of its Sevilla project for $1,452,000 . This transaction closed in November 2017 with the Company receiving net proceeds of $1,364,000 . The Company recognized a gain of $10,000 after transaction costs. In October 2018, the Company began negotiations to sell its Pacific Crest and Sevilla properties for a combined total price of $5,200,000 . As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges on Pacific Crest and Sevilla of $769,000 and $789,000 , respectively. As of the date of this filing, these transactions are still in negotiations. At October 31, 2018, the $2,481,000 carrying value of Pacific Crest and the $2,543,000 carrying value of Sevilla were classified as held for sale and included in prepaid expenses and other current assets. At October 31, 2017, the $2,983,000 carrying value of Centennial and the $1,354,000 carrying value of the commercial portion of Sevilla were classified as held for sale and included in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Equity Investments | Equity Investments Limco Del Mar, Ltd. The Company has a 1.3% interest in Limco Del Mar, Ltd. (“Del Mar”) as a general partner and a 26.8% interest as a limited partner. In October 2016, the Company purchased 14,468 units of Del Mar for $940,000 , increasing our prior-year 22.1% interest as a limited partner. The Company paid $615,000 in October 2016 and $325,000 in November 2016 for these additional units. Based on the terms of the partnership agreement, the Company may be removed as general partner without cause from the partnership upon the vote of the limited partners owning an aggregate of 50% or more interest in the partnership. Since the Company has significant influence, but less than a controlling interest, the Company’s investment in Del Mar is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company provides Del Mar with farm management, orchard land development and accounting services and received expense reimbursements of $163,000 , $146,000 and $146,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

Romney Property Partnership In May 2007, the Company and an individual formed the Romney Property Partnership (“Romney”) for the purpose of owning and leasing an office building and adjacent lot in Santa Paula, California. The Company paid $489,000 in 2007 for 75% interest in Romney. The terms of the partnership agreement affirm the status of the Company as a noncontrolling investor in the partnership since the Company cannot exercise unilateral control over the partnership. Since the Company has significant influence, but less than a controlling interest, the Company’s investment in Romney is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Net profits, losses and cash flows of Romney are shared by the Company, which receives 75% and the individual, who receives 25% . Rosales S.A. On August 14, 2014, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Limoneira Chile SpA, the Company invested $1,750,000 for a 35% interest in Rosales S.A, (“Rosales”), a citrus packing, marketing and sales business located in La Serena, Chile. The Company’s investment included certain preferred interest provisions through December 31, 2016, including cash distributions of the 50% and 40% of the net income of Rosales for the years ending December 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively, as well as a liquidation preference on its investment. In addition, the Company has the right to acquire the interest of the majority shareholder of Rosales upon death or disability of Rosales’ general manager for the fair value of the interest on the date of the event as defined in the shareholders’ agreement. In February 2017, the Company acquired an additional 12% ownership interest in Rosales with the purchase of PDA as described in Note 3 – Acquisitions of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. Since the Company has significant influence, but less than a controlling interest, the Company’s investment in Rosales is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Rosales’ functional currency is the Chilean Peso. The following financial information has been translated to U.S. dollars. In addition, as a result of the Company’s acquisition of its equity interest, basis differences were identified between the historical cost of the net assets of Rosales and the proportionate fair value of the net assets acquired. Such basis differences aggregated $1,683,000 on the acquisition date and are primarily comprised of intangible assets, including $343,000 of equity method goodwill. An additional $925,000 of basis differences were identified with the February 2017 PDA acquisition, including $143,000 of equity method goodwill. The $2,122,000 in basis differences exclusive of goodwill is being amortized over the estimated life of the underlying intangible assets as a reduction in the equity investment and an expense included in equity in earnings (losses) of investments. Amortization amounted to $337,000 , $290,000 and $208,000 for fiscal year 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and is estimated to be approximately $180,000 per year for years ending October 31, 2019 through October 31, 2023.

Income Taxes | Income Taxes A reconciliation of income before income taxes for domestic and foreign locations for the years ended October 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 are as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 United States $ 13,099 $ 11,386 $ 13,285 Foreign 384 (760 ) 40 Income before income taxes $ 13,483 $ 10,626 $ 13,325 The components of the provisions for income taxes for fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 are as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Current: Federal $ 35 $ (1,217 ) $ 1,736 State (444 ) (527 ) (749 ) Foreign (169 ) (41 ) (59 ) Total current (provision) benefit (578 ) (1,785 ) 928 Deferred: Federal 7,393 (2,282 ) (5,942 ) State (212 ) (238 ) (253 ) Foreign 126 228 — Total deferred benefit (provision) 7,307 (2,292 ) (6,195 ) Total benefit (provision) $ 6,729 $ (4,077 ) $ (5,267 ) 16. Income Taxes (continued) The income tax provision differs from the amount which would result from the statutory federal income tax rate primarily as a result of remeasuring deferred tax assets and liabilities, the dividend exclusion and state income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net of temporary differences between the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The components of deferred income tax assets (liabilities) at October 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 Deferred income tax assets: Labor accruals $ 194 $ 286 State income taxes 97 191 Net operating losses 706 — Prepaid insurance and other 457 442 Impairments of real estate development assets 1,557 3,186 Derivative instruments — 105 Minimum pension liability adjustment 644 1,512 Amortization 203 360 Total deferred income tax assets 3,858 6,082 Deferred income tax liabilities: Property taxes (165 ) (234 ) Depreciation (13,230 ) (15,114 ) Book and tax basis difference of acquired assets (9,886 ) (14,444 ) Unrealized net gain on Calavo investment (5,830 ) (7,490 ) Other (119 ) (215 ) Total deferred income tax liabilities (29,230 ) (37,497 ) Net deferred income tax liabilities $ (25,372 ) $ (31,415 ) At October 31, 2018 , the Company had federal net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $3.1 million . The federal net operating loss is carried forward indefinitely. The income tax provision differs from that computed using the federal statutory rate applied to income before taxes as follows for fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 ($ in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Amount % Amount % Amount % Provision at statutory rates $ (3,125 ) (23.3 )% $ (3,613 ) (34.0 )% $ (4,530 ) (34.0 )% State income tax, net of federal benefit (768 ) (5.7 )% (580 ) (5.5 )% (733 ) (5.5 )% Dividend exclusion 49 0.4 % 67 0.6 % 72 0.5 % Production deduction — — 148 1.4 % 50 0.4 % Tax law change 10,295 76.4 % — — — — Other permanent items 278 2.1 % (99 ) (0.9 )% (126 ) (0.9 )% Total income tax benefit (provision) $ 6,729 49.9 % $ (4,077 ) (38.4 )% $ (5,267 ) (39.5 )% At October 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company reports accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. 16. Income Taxes (continued) The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., California, Arizona and Chile. The Company is no longer subject to significant U.S., state and Chilean income tax examinations for years prior to the statutory periods of three years for federal, four years for state and three years for Chilean tax jurisdictions. The Company recognizes interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. There was no accrued interest or penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of October 31, 2018 . The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the Tax Act") was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act includes a number of changes to existing tax laws that impact the Company, most notably it reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 34% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred, and accelerates depreciation for certain assets acquired and placed in service after September 27, 2017. The Tax Act also includes prospective changes beginning in 2018, including additional limitations on executive compensation, limitations on the deductibility of interest, and capitalization of research and development expenditures. The Tax Act includes two new U.S. tax base erosion provisions, the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provisions and the base-erosion and anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”) provisions. In addition, the Tax Act includes a provision which provides a benefit for foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”). The Tax Act is generally effective January 1, 2018. As a fiscal year U.S. taxpayer, the majority of the provisions will apply to the Company’s 2019 fiscal year. As of October 31, 2018, the Company has made a reasonable estimate of the effects of the Tax Act on its existing deferred tax balances. In conjunction with the tax law changes, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118") to address the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act. The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may take as a result of the Tax Act. Deferred tax assets and liabilities: The Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. However, the Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Tax Act and refining its calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts. The provisional amount recorded related to the remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax balance was $10,295,000 and is included as a component of income tax expense from continuing operations. Foreign tax effects: The one-time transition tax is based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) previously deferred from U.S. income taxes. In aggregate, the Company has a cumulative deficit in post-1986 E&P from its specified foreign corporations. Accordingly, no provisional amount was recorded as of October 31, 2018. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Retirement Plans | Retirement Plans The Limoneira Company Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is a noncontributory, defined benefit, single employer pension plan, which provides retirement benefits for all eligible employees. Benefits paid by the Plan are calculated based on years of service, highest five-year average earnings, primary Social Security benefit and retirement age. Effective June 2004, the Company froze the Plan and no additional benefits accrued to participants subsequent to that date. The Plan is administered by Wells Fargo Bank and Mercer Human Resource Consulting. The Plan is funded consistent with the funding requirements of federal law and regulations. There were funding contributions of $600,000 and $725,000 for fiscal years 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Plan assets are invested in a group trust consisting primarily of pooled funds, mutual funds, short-term investment funds and cash. The investment policy and strategy has been established to provide a total investment return that will, over time, maintain purchasing power parity for the Plan’s variable benefits and keep the Plan funding at a reasonable level. The long-term target asset allocation ranges are as follows: Domestic Equity 35% - 40% ; International Equity 10% - 15% and Fixed Income 50% . 17.

Such dividends are payable quarterly on the first day of January, April, July and October in each year commencing July 1, 1997. Voting Rights: Each holder of Series B Stock is entitled to ten votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. Redemption: The Company, at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem the Series B Stock, as a whole or in part, at any time or from time to time on or after August 1, 2017 and before July 31, 2027, at a redemption price equal to the par value thereof, plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for redemption. Redemption by the Company of a portion of the Series B Stock totaling 14,790 shares is subject to certain conditions agreed upon between the Company and the holders of this portion of the Series B Stock. Conversion: The holders of Series B Stock have the right, at their option, to convert such shares into shares of Common Stock of the Company at any time prior to redemption. The conversion price is $8.00 per share of Common Stock.

The put features of a portion of the Series B Stock totaling 14,790 shares are subject to certain conditions agreed upon between the Company and the holders of this portion of the Series B Stock. Because the Series B Stock may be redeemed by holders of the shares at their discretion beginning July 1, 2017, the redemption is outside of the control the Company and accordingly, the Series B Stock has been classified as temporary equity. In fiscal year 2017, a total of 14,210 shares of Series B preferred stock were converted into 177,624 shares of common stock. In fiscal year 2016, 500 shares of Series B preferred stock were converted into 6,250 shares of common stock.

Voting Rights: Each share of Series B-2 Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders.

Because the Series B-2 Preferred Stock may be redeemed by WPI at its discretion with the exercise of the Option Agreement, the redemption is outside of the control the Company and accordingly, the Series B-2 Preferred Stock has been classified as temporary equity. In connection with the sale of the Series B-2 Preferred Stock, Associated and another affiliate of WAM (“WPI-ACP”), entered into a series of agreements related to the future ownership and disposition of farmland with associated Colorado River water rights and other real estate that is held by Associated in Yuma, Arizona. The agreements allow the parties to explore strategies that will make the highest and best use of those assets, including but not limited to the sale or lease of assets or the expansion of a fallowing and water savings program in which a portion of Associated’s property is currently enrolled. The net proceeds of any monetization event would be shared equally by the parties. The agreements entered into include a Water Development Agreement and an Option Agreement. Pursuant to the Water Development Agreement, Associated granted WPI-ACP exclusive rights to develop water assets attributable to the real estate owned by Associated for the mutual benefit of Associated and WAM. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Associated granted WPI-ACP an option to purchase an undivided interest of up to one-half of the real estate owned by Associated in Yuma County, Arizona (the “Property”) and the water rights associated therewith until January 1, 2026.

Unless and until a definitive agreement or definitive agreements with respect to Associated’s real estate and water rights is entered into that would cause the cessation of farming operations, Associated expects to continue farming the Property and recognize all results of operations and retain all proceeds from such operations. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company operates in six reportable operating segments: fresh lemons, lemon packing, avocados, other agribusiness, rental operations and real estate development. The reportable operating segments of the Company are strategic business units with different products and services, distribution processes and customer bases. The fresh lemons segment includes sales, farming and harvesting expenses and third-party grower costs relative to fresh lemons. The lemon packing segment includes packing revenues and shipping and handling revenues relative to lemon packing. The lemon packing segment expenses are comprised of lemon packing costs. The lemon packing segment revenues include inter-segment revenues between fresh lemons and lemon packing. The inter-segment revenues are included gross in the segment note and a separate line item is shown as an elimination. The avocados segment includes sales, farming and harvest costs. The other agribusiness segment includes sales, farming and harvesting of oranges, specialty citrus and other crops. The rental operations segment includes housing and commercial rental operations, leased land and organic recycling. The real estate development segment includes real estate development operations. The Company does not separately allocate depreciation and amortization to its fresh lemons, lemon packing, avocados and other agribusiness segments. No asset information is provided for reportable segments as these specified amounts are not included in the measure of segment profit or loss reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker. The Company measures operating performance, including revenues and operating income, of its operating segments and allocates resources based on its evaluation. The Company does not allocate selling, general and administrative expense, other income, interest expense and income taxes, or specifically identify them to its operating segments. The Company earns packing revenue for packing lemons grown on its orchards and lemons procured from third-party growers. Intersegment revenues represent packing revenues related to lemons grown on the Company’s orchards. Prior to October 31, 2017, the Company combined its fresh lemons and lemon packing segments into one reportable segment called lemon operations. During 2017, following the completion and start-up activities of its new lemon packinghouse in 2016, the Company and its chief operating decision maker have emphasized the strategic importance and financial performance of its lemon packing operations and expanded processing volume with a focus on increasing the quantity of lemons procured from third-party growers. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company separated its lemon operations segment into two segments: fresh lemons and lemon packing. This change was made to align operating segments with the basis that the chief operating decision maker uses to review financial information to make decisions, assess performance, develop strategy and allocate capital resources. Additionally, the Company determined that avocados, which was previously aggregated in the other agribusiness 25. Segment Information (continued) segment, should be a separate reportable segment based upon the Company’s chief operating decision maker’s review of its operating results. Prior period disclosures have been recast to present results on a comparable basis. In October 2016, the Company re-purposed Windfall Farms from a real estate development project to an agricultural ranch and reclassified $26,779,000 of real estate development assets to property, plant and equipment. Windfall Farms was reclassified to the other agribusiness reportable segment from the real estate development segment in October 2016. Windfall Farms had limited real estate development activities prior to October 2016, with operating costs consisting primarily of property maintenance and taxes being the main components of its operating results.

Summary of Significant Accoun_2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Oct. 31, 2018 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of all the subsidiaries and investments in which a controlling interest is held by the Company. The consolidated financial statements represent the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of stockholders’ equity and temporary equity and statements of cash flows of Limoneira Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company’s material subsidiaries include: Limoneira Mercantile, LLC, Windfall Investors, LLC (“Windfall”), Templeton Santa Barbara, LLC, Associated Citrus Packers, Inc. (“Associated”), Limoneira Chile SpA, Limoneira EA 1 Land, LLC, San Pablo and PDA, in which the Company has a 90% ownership interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company considers the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) – Accounting Standards Code (“ASC”) 810, Consolidations, and the effect of variable interest entities, in its consolidation process. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable The Company grants credit in the course of its operations to cooperatives, companies and lessees of the Company’s facilities. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company provides allowances on its receivables as required based on accounts receivable aging and other factors. |
Concentrations | The Company maintains its cash in federally insured financial institutions. The account balances at these institutions periodically exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. |
Cultural Costs | Cultural Costs Growing costs, also referred to as cultural costs, consist of orchard maintenance costs such as cultivation, fertilization and soil amendments, pest control, pruning and irrigation. Harvest costs are comprised of labor and equipment expenses incurred to harvest and deliver crops to the packinghouses. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Cultural Costs (continued) Lemons, oranges, specialty citrus and other crops such as pistachio nuts are grown in the Company’s San Joaquin Valley orchards. Additionally, lemons are grown in the Company’s Yuma County, Arizona orchards. These crops have distinct growing periods and distinct harvest and selling periods, each of which lasts approximately four to six months. During the growing period, cultural costs are capitalized as they are associated with benefiting and preparing the crops for the harvest and selling period. During the harvest and selling period, harvest costs and cultural costs are expensed when incurred and capitalized cultural costs are amortized as components of agribusiness costs and expenses. The Company grows lemons and avocados in its Ventura County orchards. Due to climate, growing conditions and the types of crops grown, the Ventura County orchards may be harvested and sold on a year-round basis. Accordingly, the Company does not capitalize cultural costs associated with its Ventura County orchards and therefore such costs, as well as harvest costs associated with the Ventura County orchards, are expensed to operations when incurred as components of agribusiness costs and expenses. Most cultural costs, including amortization of capitalized cultural costs, and harvest costs are associated with and charged to specific crops. Certain other costs, such as property taxes, indirect labor including farm supervision and management and irrigation that benefit multiple crops are allocated to crops on a per acre basis. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Tax benefits from an uncertain tax position are only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at original cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method at rates based upon the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows (in years): Land improvements 10 – 30 Buildings and building improvements 10 – 50 Equipment 5 – 20 Orchards 20 – 40 Costs of planting and developing orchards are capitalized until the orchards become commercially productive. Planting costs consist primarily of the costs to purchase and plant nursery stock. Orchard development costs consist primarily of maintenance costs of orchards such as cultivation, pruning, irrigation, labor, spraying and fertilization, and interest costs during the development period. The Company ceases the capitalization of costs and commences depreciation when the orchards become commercially productive and orchard maintenance costs are accounted for as cultural costs as described above. |
Capitalized Interest | Capitalized Interest Interest is capitalized on real estate development projects and significant construction in progress using the weighted average interest rate during the fiscal year. |
Real Estate Development Costs | Real Estate Development Costs The Company capitalizes the planning, entitlement, construction, development costs and interest associated with its various real estate projects. Costs that are not capitalized, which include property maintenance and repairs, general and administrative and marketing expenses, are expensed as incurred. A real estate development project is considered substantially complete upon the 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Real Estate Development Costs (continued) cessation of construction and development activities. Once a project is substantially completed, future costs are expensed as incurred. |
Equity in Investments | Equity in Investments Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has significant influence but less than a controlling interest, or is not the primary beneficiary if the joint venture is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”), are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, accordingly, are adjusted for capital contributions, distributions and the Company’s equity in net earnings or loss of the respective joint venture. |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale. The Company’s investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value with unrealized gains (losses), net of tax, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income. At October 31, 2018 and 2017 , marketable securities are comprised of the Company’s investment in Calavo. |
Long-Lived Assets | Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including its definite-life intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of an asset are less than the carrying value of that asset, a write-down is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the asset to its fair value. Assets held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell. |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist primarily of acquired water and mineral rights, a patent and certain customer relationships, trade names and trademarks. Certain of the Company’s trade names and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated lives of eight years. The Company evaluates its indefinite-life intangible assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate an impairment of the assets’ value may exist. |
Goodwill | Goodwill Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis or when an event or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill impairment is tested at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment. Goodwill impairment is tested in a two-step process, with the first step performed to determine if there is potential for impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If potential impairment is identified as indicated by the carrying value exceeding the fair value of the reporting unit, the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment to be recognized in the financial statements by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess amount. Goodwill impairment testing involves significant judgment and estimates. |
Fair Values of Financial Instruments | Fair Values of Financial Instruments The fair values of financial instruments are based on level-one indicators within the fair value hierarchy or quoted market prices, where available, or are estimated using the present value or other valuation techniques. Estimated fair values are significantly affected by the assumptions used. Accounts receivable, note receivable, accounts payable, growers payable and accrued liabilities reported on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rates as well as to maintain an appropriate mix of fixed and floating-rate debt. Contract terms of a hedge instrument closely mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Derivative Financial Instruments (continued) degree of risk reduction and correlation. Contracts that are effective at meeting the risk reduction and correlation criteria are recorded using hedge accounting. If a derivative instrument is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the instrument will be either offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or be recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of an instrument’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Instruments that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting, or contracts for which the Company has not elected hedge accounting, are valued at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported in earnings during the period of change. |
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) represents all changes in a company’s net assets, except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders, and is reported as a component of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation San Pablo and PDA’s functional currency is the Chilean Peso. Their balance sheets are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and their income statements are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Revenue and related costs are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) selling price is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company records a sales allowance in the period revenue is recognized as a provision for estimated customer discounts and concessions. Agribusiness revenue - Revenue from lemon sales is generally recognized FOB shipping point when the customer takes possession of the fruit from the Company’s packinghouse. Revenue from the sales of certain of the Company’s agricultural products is recorded based on estimated proceeds provided by certain of the Company’s sales and marketing partners (Calavo and other third-party packinghouses) due to the time between when the product is delivered by the Company and the closing of the pools for such fruits at the end of each month. Calavo and other third-party packinghouses are agricultural cooperatives or function in a similar manner as an agricultural cooperative. As such, the Company applies specific authoritative agriculture revenue recognition guidance related to transactions between patrons and agriculture marketing cooperatives to record revenue at time of delivery to the packinghouses relating to fruits that are in pools that have not yet closed at month end if: (a) the related fruits have been delivered to and accepted by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses (i.e., title has transferred to Calavo and other third-party packinghouses) and (b) sales price information has been provided by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses (based on the marketplace activity for the related fruit) to estimate with reasonable certainty the final selling price for the fruit upon the closing of the pools. Historically, the revenue that is recorded based on the sales price information provided to the Company by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses at the time of delivery, have not materially differed from the actual amounts that are paid after the monthly pools are closed. The Company also earns commissions on certain brokered fruit sales, which totaled $1,084,000 , $324,000 and $263,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company’s avocados, oranges, specialty citrus and other specialty crops are packed and sold by Calavo and other third-party packinghouses. The Company delivers all of its avocado production from its orchards to Calavo. These avocados are then packed by Calavo at its packinghouse, and sold and distributed under Calavo brands to its customers primarily in the United States and Canada. The Company’s arrangements with other third-party packinghouses related to its oranges, specialty citrus and other specialty crops are similar to its arrangement with Calavo. The Company’s arrangements with its third-party packinghouses are such that the Company is the producer and supplier of the product and the third-party packinghouses are the Company’s customers. The revenues the Company recognizes related to the fruits sold to the third-party packinghouses are based on the volume and quality of the fruits delivered, the market price for such fruit, less the packinghouses’ charges to pack and market the fruit. Such packinghouse charges include the grading, sizing, packing, cooling, ripening and marketing of the related fruit. The Company bears inventory risk until product is delivered to the third-party packinghouses at which time title and inventory risk to the product is transferred to the third-party packinghouses and revenue is recognized. Such third-party packinghouse charges are recorded as a reduction of revenue based on the application of specific authoritative revenue recognition guidance entitled “Vendor’s Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Given to a 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Revenue Recognition (continued) Customer”. The identifiable benefit the Company receives from the third-party packinghouses for packaging and marketing services cannot be sufficiently separated from the third-party packinghouses’ purchase of the Company’s products. In addition, the Company is not able to reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit received from the third-party packinghouses for such services and as such, these costs are characterized as a reduction of revenue in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Revenue from crop insurance proceeds is recorded when the amount of and the right to receive the payment can be reasonably determined. The Company recorded agribusiness revenues from crop insurance proceeds of $54,000 , $74,000 and $83,000 in fiscal years 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Rental operations revenue - Minimum rental revenues are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective initial lease term. Contingent rental revenues are contractually defined as to the percentage of rent received by the Company and are based on fees collected by the lessee. Such revenues are recognized when actual results, based on collected fees reported by the tenant, are received. The Company’s rental arrangements generally require payment on a monthly or quarterly basis. Real estate development revenue - The Company recognizes revenue on real estate development projects in accordance with FASB ASC 360-20, Real Estate Sales , which provides for profit to be recognized in full when real estate is sold provided that, a sale has been consummated and profit is determinable, collection of sales proceeds is estimable with the seller’s receivable not subject to subordination, risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer and the earnings process is substantially complete with no significant seller activities or obligations required after the date of sale. To the extent the above conditions are not met, a portion or all of the profit is deferred. Incidental operations may occur during the holding or development period of real estate development projects to reduce holding or development costs. Incremental revenue from incidental operations in excess of incremental costs from incidental operations is accounted for as a reduction of development costs. Incremental costs from incidental operations in excess of incremental revenue from incidental operations are charged to operations. |
Advertising Expense | Advertising Expense Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. |
Leases | Leases The Company records rent expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date as defined in the lease agreement until the end of the base lease term. |
Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share | Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share Basic net income per common share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of the dilutive effect of preferred stock. Diluted net income per common share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of conversion of preferred stock. The Series B and Series B-2 convertible preferred shares were dilutive for fiscal year ended October 31, 2018 and anti-dilutive for fiscal years ended October 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Unvested stock-based compensation awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends as participating shares are included in computing earnings per share using the two-class method. The Company’s unvested, restricted stock awards qualify as participating shares. |
Defined Benefit Retirement Plan | Defined Benefit Retirement Plan The Company sponsors a defined benefit retirement plan that was frozen in June 2004, and no future benefits have been accrued to participants subsequent to that time. Ongoing accounting for this plan under FASB ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits, provides guidance as to, among other things, future estimated pension expense, pension liability and minimum funding requirements. This information is provided to the Company by third-party actuarial consultants. In developing this data, certain estimates and assumptions are used, including among other things, discount rate, long-term rate of return and mortality tables. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Defined Benefit Retirement Plan (continued) During 2018, the Society of Actuaries (SOA) released a new mortality improvement scale table, referred to as MP-2018, which is believed to better reflect mortality improvements and is to be used in calculating defined benefit pension obligations. In addition, during fiscal year 2018 , the assumed discount rate to measure the pension obligation increased to 4.4% . The Company used the latest mortality tables released by the SOA through October 2018 to measure its pension obligation as of October 31, 2018 and combined with the assumed discount rate and other demographic assumptions, its pension liability decreased by approximately $1,454,000 as of October 31, 2018 . Further changes in any of these estimates could materially affect the amounts recorded that are related to our defined benefit retirement plan. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. In addition, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer (e.g., assets within the scope of Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and tangible assets within the scope of Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other) are amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement (including the constraint on revenue) in this ASU. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: • Identify the contract(s) with a customer. • Identify the performance obligations in the contract. • Determine the transaction price. • Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. • Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 (ASU 2016-08), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). ASU 2016-08 clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 (ASU 2016-10), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. ASU 2016-10 clarifies the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations. These ASUs apply to all companies that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services. In May 2016, the FASB issued, ASU 2016-12 (ASU 2016-12), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. ASU 2016-12 provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and adds some practical expedients. The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The Company will adopt the standard in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2019 and anticipates using the modified retrospective method. The Company has inventoried and evaluated its current revenue streams and related contracts with customers in order to identify material differences, if any, that would result from applying the new requirements to its revenue contracts. Furthermore, the Company has evaluated the principal versus agent considerations as it relates to certain agreements with third parties and has determined that there will be an impact to the presentation of gross or net revenue reporting. The Company continues to evaluate the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements, however we do not expect the standard to have a material impact on our net consolidated results of operations or financial position and related disclosures. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) FASB ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The Company’s adoption of this ASU had no impact on its consolidated financial statements. FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, require equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. Requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets (i.e., securities or loans and receivables). Eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-01 is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements, but believes the impact could be significant as the changes in the fair value of Calavo common stock will be recorded in the statement of operations. FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: • A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and • A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new lease guidance simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The ASU will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2020. The Company is evaluating the effect this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements, however it expects to apply the practical expedients provided in the ASU. Note 20 – Commitments and Contingencies – of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report describes its operating lease arrangements as of October 31, 2018 . FASB ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business This amendment clarifies the definition of a business. The amendment affects all companies and other reporting organizations that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The amendment is intended to help companies and other organizations evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) This amendment is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. For all other companies and organizations, the amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendment should be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company early adopted this ASU during the quarter ended July 31, 2018 and as a result, the purchase of San Pablo was accounted for as an acquisition of assets. FASB ASU 2017-07, Compensation — Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost The amendment requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are used to present the other components of net benefit cost, that line item or items must be appropriately described. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. The amendment is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is evaluating the effect this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements. |
