| Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies | Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Business — UFI Acquisition, Inc. (“UFI”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on January 14, 2013, for the purpose of acquiring Unique Fabricating, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Unique Fabricating”) (collectively, the “Company” or “Unique”) on March 18, 2013. The Company operates as one operating and reportable segment to fabricate and broker foam and rubber products, which are primarily sold to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and tiered suppliers in the automotive, appliance, water heater and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) industries. In September 2014, UFI changed its name to Unique Fabricating, Inc. which is now the parent company of the consolidated group. As a result of the name change, the subsidiary previously named Unique Fabricating, Inc. became Unique Fabricating NA, Inc. Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The information furnished in the consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of such financial statements. The interim results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the Company's actual annual results. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 30, 2018 included in the Companys’s annual report on Form 10-K for such period. Principles of Consolidation — The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. Fiscal Years — The Company’s quarterly periods end on the Sunday closest to the end of the calendar quarterly period. For 2019, the quarter and year to date period, which were 13 and 39 weeks, respectively, ended on September 29, 2019 , and for 2018, the quarter and year to date period, which were 13 and 39 weeks, respectively, ended on September 30, 2018 . Fiscal year 2018 ended on Sunday, December 30, 2018 . Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are stated at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is management’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience and an understanding of individual customer payment history and financial condition. Management reviews the allowance for doubtful accounts at regular intervals. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when management determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $849,423 and $684,996 at September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , respectively. Inventory — Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on the first in, first out method (FIFO). Inventory acquired as part of a business combination is recorded at its estimated fair value at the time of the business combination. The Company periodically evaluates inventory for obsolescence, excess quantities, slow moving goods and other impairments of value and establishes reserves for any identified impairments. Valuation of Long-Lived Assets — The carrying value of long-lived assets held for use is periodically evaluated when events or circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset held for use is considered impaired when the anticipated separately identifiable undiscounted cash flows from the asset are less than the carrying value of the asset. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. The Company determined that no impairment indicators were present and all originally assigned useful lives remained appropriate during the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , respectively. Property, Plant, and Equipment — Property, plant, and equipment purchases are recorded at cost. Property, plant, and equipment acquired as part of a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value at the time of the business combination. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the period of the related leases. Upon retirement or disposal, the initial cost or valuation and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in net income. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Intangible Assets — The Company does not hold any intangible assets with indefinite lives. Identifiable intangible assets recognized as part of a business combination are recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of the business combination. Acquired intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized on a straight line basis, which approximates the pattern in which the economic benefit of the respective intangible is realized, over their respective estimated useful lives. Amortizable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may be impaired. The remaining useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. The Company determined that no impairment indicators were present and all originally assigned useful lives remained appropriate during the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , respectively. Goodwill — Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost of consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from business combinations at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is assessed at least on an annual basis for impairment. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value is greater than the carrying value of a reporting unit then a qualitative assessment may be used for the annual impairment test. Otherwise, a one-step process is used which requires estimating the fair value of each reporting unit compared to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, goodwill impairment will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The Company has one reporting unit and operating segment for goodwill testing purposes. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company experienced a decline in market capitalization, which is a potential indicator of impairment. As a result, the Company performed an interim quantitative assessment as of June 30, 2019, utilizing a combination of the income and market approaches, which were weighted evenly. The results of the quantitative analysis performed indicated the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeded the fair value of the reporting unit as of June 30, 2019. A goodwill impairment charge of $6,760,397 was recognized during the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and no impairment charges recognized during the 13 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , respectively. Key assumptions used in the analysis were a discount rate of 12.5% , EBITDA margin and a terminal growth rate of 2.0% . No such indicators of impairment were identified during the 13 weeks ended September 29, 2019 . Debt Issuance Costs — Debt issuance costs represent legal, consulting, and other financial costs associated with debt financing and are reported netted against the related debt instrument. Amounts paid to or on behalf of lenders are presented as a debt discount and are also shown as a reduction of the associated debt instrument. Debt issuance costs on term debt are amortized using the straight line basis over the term of the related debt (which is immaterially different from the required effective interest method) while those related to revolving debt are amortized using a straight line basis over the term of the related debt. At September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , debt issuance costs were $322,973 and $381,793 , respectively, while amounts paid to or on behalf of lenders presented as debt discounts were $407,938 and $482,232 , respectively. On November 8, 2018, the Company amended its current Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), which increased the Company's term loan debt and is further described in Note 6. The Company reviewed this amendment for extinguishment accounting and concluded that as of the date of the amendment $59,110 of the remaining $172,600 debt issuance costs not amortized on the revolving debt facility qualified for extinguishment accounting and were recognized as a loss on extinguishment immediately. The remaining unamortized debt issuance costs not extinguished on the old revolving debt facility and all of the of remaining unamortized debt issuance costs on the term loans did not meet extinguishment accounting and therefore were carried forward to the new revolving debt facility and term loans. Amortization expense of both debt issuance costs and debt discounts has been recognized as a component of interest expense in the amounts of $44,369 and $133,112 for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 , and $35,536 and $106,609 for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , respectively. Investments — Investments in entities in which the Company has less than a 20 percent interest or is not able to exercise significant influence are carried at cost, as there is not a readily determined fair value for these investments. Dividends received are included in income, except for those dividends received in excess of the Company’s proportionate share of accumulated earnings, which are applied as a reduction of the cost of the investment. Impairment losses due to a decline in the value of the investment that is other than temporary are recognized when incurred. No dividend income or impairment loss was recognized for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , respectively. Accounts Payable — Under the Company’s cash management system, checks issued but not yet presented to the Company’s bank frequently result in overdraft balances for accounting purposes and are classified as accounts payable on the consolidated balance sheets. Accounts payable included $2,639,254 and $1,802,712 of checks issued in excess of available cash balances at September 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 , respectively. Stock Based Compensation — The Company accounts for its stock based compensation using the fair value of the award estimated at the grant date of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of awards, consisting of stock options, using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Compensation expense is recognized in earnings using the straight line method over the vesting period, which represents the requisite service period. Revenue Recognition — The following table presents the Company's net sales disaggregated by major sales channel for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 : Thirteen Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Net Sales Automotive $ 33,432,013 $ 100,964,000 HVAC, water heater, and appliances 3,096,874 10,354,874 Other 2,020,957 5,586,957 Total $ 38,549,844 $ 116,905,831 General Recognition Policy Revenue is recognized by the Company once all performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the Company's customers are satisfied. Generally this occurs with the transfer of control of its automotive, HVAC, and other products. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring its products. The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and location of its customers and the products offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. In general for sales arrangements, the Company deems control to transfer at a single point in time and recognizes revenue when it ships products from its manufacturing facilities to its customers. Once a product has shipped, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset. The Company considers control to transfer upon shipment because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Contract Balances The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections and payments results in billed accounts receivable. The Company does not have deferred revenue. Additionally, as noted above in the Accounts Receivable section, management reviews the allowance for doubtful accounts at regular intervals. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when management determines it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The allowance for doubtful account balances are noted above in the Accounts Receivable section. Practical Expedients The Company elects the practical expedient to expense costs incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs include sales commissions as the Company has determined annual compensation is commensurate with annual sales activities. The Company elects the practical expedient that does not require the Company to adjust consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the period between shipment of its products and customer’s payment is one year or less . Shipping and Handling — Shipping and handling costs are included in costs of sales as they are incurred. Income Taxes — A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the period. Deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax accounting measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company also evaluates the need for valuation allowances to reduce the deferred tax assets to realizable amounts. Management evaluates all positive and negative evidence and uses judgment regarding past and future events, including operating results, to help determine when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets may not be realized. When appropriate, a valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets to reserve for future tax benefits that may not be realized. The Company recognizes the financial statement effects of a tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company assesses all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remain open. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 29, 2019 and September 30, 2018 . The Company recognizes any penalties and interest when necessary as income tax expense. There were no penalties or interest recorded during the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 or September 30, 2018 , respectively. Foreign Currency Adjustments — The Company’s functional currency for all operations worldwide is the United States dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities of foreign operations are remeasured at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at the end of each reporting period. Income statement accounts are remeasured at average exchange rates for the year. Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency financial statements into United States dollars are classified in other income in the consolidated statements of operations. Concentration Risks — The Company is exposed to various significant concentration risks as follows: Customer and Credit — During the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 and 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 , the Company’s net sales were derived from customers principally engaged in the North American automotive industry. The following table presents the Company's sales directly and indirectly to General Motors Company (GM), Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), and Ford Motor Company (Ford) as a percentage of total net sales: Thirteen Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirteen Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 General Motors Company (GM) 17 % 15 % 18 % 14 % Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) 15 % 16 % 15 % 16 % Ford Motor Company (Ford) 14 % 10 % 12 % 11 % No customer represented more than 10 percent of direct Company sales for the 13 weeks ended September 29, 2019 . GM accounted for 10 percent of direct Company sales for the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2019 . No customer represented more than 10 percent of direct Company sales for the 13 and 39 weeks ended September 30, 2018 . GM accounted for more than 8 percent of direct accounts receivable as of September 29, 2019 . GM accounted for 14 percent of direct accounts receivable as of December 30, 2018 . Labor Markets — At September 29, 2019 , of the Company’s hourly plant employees working in the United States manufacturing facilities, 32 percent were covered under a collective bargaining agreement which expires in August 2022 while another 6 percent were covered under a separate collective bargaining agreement that expires in February 2023. On October 18, 2019, subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company's hourly plant employees in Bryan, Ohio voted to unionize with a contract to be negotiated during the fourth quarter of 2019. Foreign Currency Exchange — The expression of assets and liabilities in a currency other than the Company's functional currency, which is the United States dollar, gives rise to exchange gains and losses when such assets and obligations are paid in another currency. Foreign currency exchange rate adjustments (i.e., differences between amounts recorded and actual amounts owed or paid) are reported in the consolidated statements of operations as the foreign currency fluctuations occur. Foreign currency exchange rate adjustments are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the cash flows. At September 29, 2019 , the Company’s exposure to assets and liabilities denominated in another currency was not significant. To the extent there is a fluctuation in the exchange rates, the amount of local currency to be paid or received to satisfy foreign currency obligations in 2019 may increase or decrease. International Operations — The Company manufactures and sells products outside of the United States primarily in Mexico and Canada. Foreign operations are subject to various political, economic and other risks and uncertainties inherent in foreign countries. Among other risks, the Company’s operations may be subject to the risks of: restrictions on transfers of funds; export duties, quotas, and embargoes; domestic and international customs and tariffs; changing taxation policies; foreign exchange restrictions; political conditions; and governmental regulations. The following table presents the Company's production in Mexico, Canada, and other foreign markets: Thirteen Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirteen Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 Mexico 19 % 17 % 19 % 18 % Canada 7 % 10 % 7 % 10 % Other — % — % — % — % The following table presents the Company's sales derived from customers located in Mexico, Canada, and other foreign countries: Thirteen Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirteen Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 29, 2019 Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 30, 2018 Mexico 19 % 18 % 18 % 17 % Canada 7 % 9 % 9 % 10 % Other 1 % 2 % 1 % 2 % Derivative Financial Instruments — All derivative instruments are required to be reported on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value unless the transactions qualify and are designated as normal purchases or sales. Changes in fair value are reported currently through earnings unless they meet hedge accounting criteria. See Note 7 for further information regarding the Company's derivative instrument makeup. Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606. This ASU superseded most of the existing guidance on revenue recognition in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and established a broad principle that would require an entity to 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. The Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments to all contracts using the modified retrospective method in its first quarter of 2019. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of Topic 606 to have a material impact to its net income on an ongoing basis. The Company did not record a cumulative adjustment related to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, and the effects of adoption were not significant. In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance, together with related, subsequently issued guidance, that addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Among other provisions, the guidance requires certain equity securities to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. For equity securities without readily determinable fair values, entities may elect to measure these securities at cost minus impairment, if any, adjusted for changes in observable prices. The guidance should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the year of adoption, except for equity securities without readily determinable fair values, to which the guidance should be applied prospectively. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018 and concluded this did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. The Company does have a cost method investment in its consolidated financial statements, and there is not a readily determinable value for this investment. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will supersede the current lease requirements in Topic 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for short-term leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The reporting of lease related expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with current guidance. The ASU is effective for the Company for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company believes the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements will be to materially increase assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet, but it is not expected to materially impact the consolidated statements of operations. |
