Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation	​ Note 1: Basis of Presentation ​ The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of La-Z-Boy Incorporated and our majority-owned subsidiaries. We derived the April 27, 2019, balance sheet from our audited financial statements. We prepared the interim financial information in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which we applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in our fiscal 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but the information does not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In management’s opinion, the interim financial information includes all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments (except as otherwise disclosed), that are necessary for a fair statement of results for the respective interim periods. The interim results reflected in the accompanying financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the full fiscal year ending April 25, 2020. ​ To further strengthen our supply chain footprint, on August 8, 2019, we announced our plan to close our Redlands, California upholstered furniture manufacturing facility and move production to available capacity at our other North American facilities. In addition, we will transition the leather cut-and-sew operation from the Newton, Mississippi upholstered furniture manufacturing plant to another North American-based cut-and-sew facility. The company’s Redlands upholstered furniture plant currently employs about 350 people, accounts for approximately 10 % of the La-Z-Boy branded business total upholstery production and manufactures recliners, motion sofas and classics (high-leg recliners). We plan to cease production at the Redlands plant in October 2019. The move of the Newton leather cut-and-sew operation is expected to fully transition by the end of calendar 2019 and will impact about 105 of the 525 employees at that location. The Redlands facility, which is approximately 200,000 square feet, will be idled after operations cease and marketed for sale. ​ As a part of our supply chain optimization initiative, we may incur expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. Other expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, restructuring activities do not qualify as exit and disposal costs, such as accelerated depreciation, asset impairments and other incremental costs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we recognized a severance liability of $1.5 million within cost of sales that was probable and estimable at the end of the reporting period. These costs do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under ASC 420. ​ At July 27, 2019, we owned preferred shares of two privately-held companies, both of which are variable interest entities. We also hold a warrant to purchase common shares of one of these companies. We have not consolidated the results of either of these companies in our financial statements because we do not have the power to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of either of these companies and, therefore, are not the primary beneficiary. ​ Accounting pronouncements adopted in fiscal 2020 ​ Each accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) adopted below had a significant impact on our accounting policies and/or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ​ In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 requiring lessees to record all operating leases on their balance sheet. Under this standard, the lessee is required to record an asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a corresponding liability for the contractual lease payments. We have adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. ​ The following table summarizes additional ASUs which were adopted in fiscal 2020, but did not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ​ ASU Description ASU 2017-06 ​ Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans (Topic 960), Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), Health and Welfare Benefit Plans (Topic 965): Employee Benefit Plan Master Trust Reporting (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) ASU 2017-12 ​ Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities ASU 2018-02 ​ Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income: Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ASU 2018-07 ​ Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting ASU 2018-16 ​ Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes ​ Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted ​ The following table summarizes additional accounting pronouncements which we have not yet adopted, but we believe will not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ​ ASU Description Adoption Date ASU 2016-13 ​ Financial Instruments – Credit losses ​ Fiscal 2021 ​ ASU 2018-13 ​ Fair Value Measurement – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements ​ Fiscal 2021 ​ ASU 2018-14 ​ Compensation – Retirement benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans ​ Fiscal 2022 ​ ​

Acquisitions	Note 2: Acquisitions ​ We did not complete any acquisitions during the quarter ended July 27, 2019. Information regarding our fiscal 2019 acquisition below reflects revised estimates based on updated information obtained during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. ​ Corporate and Other acquisitions ​ On July 30, 2018, we completed our acquisition of Stitch Industries, Inc. ("Joybird"), an e-commerce retailer and manufacturer of upholstered furniture, for guaranteed cash payments of $75 million, which was subject to a working capital adjustment of $2.5 million. We received the working capital adjustment during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 from amounts placed in escrow at the time of the closing of the transaction. We acquired Joybird to better position ourselves for growth in the online selling environment and increase our visibility with millennial and Gen X consumers, while simultaneously leveraging our supply chain assets. ​ The guaranteed payments include a closing date cash payment of $37.5 million in purchase price consideration (net of the working capital adjustment), $7.5 million in prepaid compensation, and the assumption of $5.0 million of liabilities that will be paid within two years following the acquisition.The remaining $25 million will ​ be paid in five annual installments of $5 million on the anniversary date of the acquisition, the first of which was paid in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The merger agreement also includes two future earn-out opportunities based on Joybird’s financial performance in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2023. ​ The $7.5 million of prepaid compensation relates to the retention of the four Joybird founders, now our employees, each of whom will forfeit proportional amounts if one or more of them resigns in the two years following the acquisition. We are amortizing the $7.5 million to selling, general & administrative expense over the two-year retention period on a straight-line basis. In addition to the guaranteed cash payments of $75 million, we recorded a contingent consideration liability on the date of acquisition of $7.5 million, which reflects the provisional fair value of the earn-out opportunities as of the date of acquisition. We also recorded a finite-lived intangible asset of $6.4 million reflecting the provisional fair value of the acquired Joybird ® ​ We recorded $78.8 million of goodwill related to the Joybird acquisition, related primarily to synergies we expect from the integration of the acquisition and the anticipated future benefits of these synergies. The finite-lived intangible asset and goodwill asset for Joybird are not deductible for federal income tax purposes. ​ When we acquired Joybird, we based the purchase price allocations on provisional fair values at the date of acquisition. During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we obtained additional data and have revised certain of our estimates, resulting in the purchase price allocations shown below: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Second quarter ​ ​ fiscal 2019 ​ ​ Corporate and ​ ​ Other (Amounts in thousands) acquisitions Fair value of consideration: ​ ​ ​ Cash (paid at closing) ​ $ 37,482 Guaranteed payment ​ 22,489 Acquisition earn-out ​ 7,500 Assumption of liability ​ ​ 5,000 Working capital adjustment ​ (2,486) Total fair value of consideration ​ 69,985 ​ ​ ​ ​ Amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed: ​ ​ ​ Inventory ​ ​ 5,258 Other current assets ​ ​ 3,733 Property, plant and equipment ​ ​ 2,057 Finite-lived tradename ​ 6,400 Other long-term assets ​ 3,647 Accounts payable ​ (8,222) Customer deposits ​ (13,904) Other current liabilities ​ (7,681) Other long-term liabilities ​ (150) Total identifiable net liabilities acquired ​ (8,862) ​ ​ ​ ​ Goodwill ​ $ 78,847 ​ We included the Joybird operating segment in our other business activities which we report as Corporate and Other results upon acquisition. ​ The above acquisition was not material to our financial position or our results of operations, and therefore, pro-forma financial information is not presented. In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification Topic 805-10-25-15, the acquirer has a period of time, referred to as the measurement period, to finalize the accounting for a business combination. The measurement period provides companies with a reasonable period of time to determine, among other things, the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration transferred for the acquisition, or other amounts used in measuring goodwill. As we are beyond the provisional period, all of the purchase accounting shown above is final.

Leases
Leases	Note 5: Leases ​ During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and all related amendments. The guidance requires lessees to recognize substantially all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability. ​ The Company leases real estate for retail stores, distribution centers, warehouses, plants, showrooms and office space. We also have equipment leases for tractors/trailers, IT and office equipment and vehicles. We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception based on our right to control the use of an identified asset and our right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that identified asset. Most of our real estate leases include options to renew or terminate early. We assess these options to determine if we are reasonably certain of exercising these options based on all relevant economic and financial factors. Any options that meet this criteria are included in the lease term at lease commencement. ​ Most of our leases do not have an interest rate implicit in the lease. As a result, for purposes of measuring our ROU asset and lease liability, we determine our incremental borrowing rate by applying a spread above the U.S. Treasury borrowing rates. In the case an interest rate is implicit in a lease we will use that rate as the discount rate for that lease. Some of our leases contain variable rent payments based on a Consumer Price Index or percentage of sales. Due to the variable nature of these costs, they are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. ​ The Company has elected to apply the practical expedients permitted under transition guidance to forgo the restatement of comparative periods and to not reassess leases entered into prior to adoption. In addition, we have elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components when determining the ROU asset and lease liability. We have also made an accounting policy election to not recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for those leases with an initial term of one year or less and instead such liabilities will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ​ Supplemental balance sheet information (in thousands) related to leases as of July 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Operating leases ​ ​ ​ ROU assets $ 312,312 Lease liabilities, short-term ​ 64,031 Lease liabilities, long-term ​ 262,264 ​ ​ ​ ​ Finance leases ​ ROU assets $ 121 Lease liabilities, short-term ​ 127 Lease liabilities, long-term ​ — ​ The ROU assets by segment are as follows (in thousands) as of July 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Upholstery $ 55,057 Casegoods ​ 2,205 Retail ​ 248,338 Corporate & Other ​ 6,833 Total ROU assets ​ $ 312,433 ​ The components of lease cost are as follows (in thousands) for the quarter ended July 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Operating lease cost $ 19,018 Financing lease cost ​ 49 Short-term lease cost ​ 25 Variable lease cost ​ 40 Less: Sublease income ​ (628) Total lease cost ​ $ 18,504 ​ The following table presents supplemental lease disclosures for the quarter ended July 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (Dollars in thousands) ​ Operating Financing Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities ​ $ 19,303 ​ $ 49 ​ Lease liabilities arising from new ROU assets ​ ​ 14,353 ​ ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Weighted-average remaining lease term (years) ​ 6.6 ​ 0.8 ​ Weighted-average discount rate ​ 3.9 % ​ 3.9 % ​ The following table presents our undiscounted cash flows as of July 27, 2019 and our minimum contractual obligations on our leases as of April 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 7/27/19 ​ 4/27/19 (Amounts in thousands) Operating Leases Financing Leases Operating Leases Financing Leases Within one year ​ $ 75,357 ​ $ 129 ​ $ 76,508 ​ $ 180 After one year and within two years ​ 68,610 ​ — ​ 71,544 ​ 19 After two years and within three years ​ 55,219 ​ — ​ 58,763 ​ — After three years and within four years ​ 43,029 ​ — ​ 46,541 ​ — After four years and within five years ​ 34,193 ​ — ​ 36,082 ​ — After five years ​ 93,658 ​ — ​ 102,782 ​ — Total lease payments ​ 370,066 ​ 129 ​ $ 392,220 ​ $ 199 Less: Interest ​ 43,771 ​ 2 ​ ​ ​ ​ Total lease obligations ​ $ 326,295 ​ $ 127 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Employee Benefits	Note 8: Employee Benefits ​ Pension ​ During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we terminated our defined benefit pension plan for eligible factory hourly employees in our La-Z-Boy operating unit. In connection with the plan termination, we settled all future obligations under the plan through a combination of lump-sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and transferred any remaining benefit obligations under the plan to a highly rated insurance company. ​ There were no net periodic pension costs associated with the terminated pension plan in the quarter ended July 27, 2019. For the quarter ended July 28, 2018, net periodic pension costs were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Quarter Ended (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) 7/28/18 Service cost ​ $ 323 Interest cost ​ 1,116 Expected return on plan assets ​ (1,136) Net amortization ​ 639 Net periodic pension cost ​ $ 942 ​ The components of net periodic pension cost other than the service cost are included in other income (expense), net in our consolidated statement of income. Service cost is recorded in cost of sales in our consolidated statement of income. ​ Employee Vacation Policy Changes ​ We enacted changes to our employee vacation policies that became effective on January 1, 2019. Our new vacation policies enhanced the amount of vacation time earned by our employees. Additionally, under these vacation policies, our salary and office hourly employees now accrue vacation in the current calendar year for use in the current calendar year, and any vacation time earned but not used will be forfeited at the end of each calendar year.

Product Warranties	Note 9: Product Warranties ​ We accrue an estimated liability for product warranties when we recognize revenue on the sale of warranted products. We estimate future warranty claims on new sales based on our historical claims experience and also provide for any additional anticipated future costs on previously sold products. We incorporate repair costs into our liability estimates, including materials, labor and overhead amounts necessary to perform repairs and any costs associated with delivering repaired product to our customers. Over 90% of our warranty liability relates to our Upholstery segment as we generally warrant our products against defects for one year on fabric and leather, from one to ten years on cushions and padding, and provide a limited lifetime warranty on certain mechanisms and frames. Our Upholstery segment warranties cover labor costs relating to our parts for one year . We provide a limited lifetime warranty against defects on a majority of the products sold by Joybird, which is part of our Corporate and Other results. For all our manufacturer warranties, the warranty period begins when the consumer receives our product. We use considerable judgment in making our estimates, and we record differences between our actual and estimated costs when the differences are known. ​ A reconciliation of the changes in our product warranty liability is as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Quarter Ended (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) 7/27/19 7/28/18 Balance as of the beginning of the period ​ $ 22,736 ​ $ 21,205 Accruals during the period ​ 5,657 ​ 5,121 Settlements during the period ​ (5,557) ​ (5,233) Balance as of the end of the period ​ $ 22,836 ​ $ 21,093 ​ As of July 27, 2019, and April 27, 2019, we included $13.9 million of our product warranty liability in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet, and included the remainder in other ​ long-term liabilities. We recorded accruals during the periods presented in the table above, primarily to reflect charges that relate to warranties issued during the respective periods.

As of July 27, 2019, we had 7,149 and 14,580 SARs outstanding for the fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2014 awards, respectively. These awards have exceeded their expected life and will be re-measured to fair value based on their intrinsic value, which is the market value of our common stock on the last day of the reporting period less the exercise price, until the earlier of the exercise date or the contractual term date. At July 27, 2019, the intrinsic value per share of the fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2014 awards were $19.71 and ​ Restricted Stock ​ Performance Shares. ​ We account for performance-based shares as equity-based awards because when they vest, they will be settled in common shares. We estimate forfeiture rates based on our employees' forfeiture history and believe they will approximate future results. For shares that vest based on our results relative to the performance goals, we expense as compensation cost the fair value of the shares as of the day we granted the awards recognized over the performance period, taking into account the probability that we will satisfy the performance goals. The fair value of each share of the awards we granted in fiscal 2020 that vest based on attaining performance goals was $28.68, the market value of our common shares on the date we granted the awards less the dividends we expect to pay before the shares vest. For shares that vest based on market conditions, we use a Monte Carlo valuation model to estimate each share’s fair value as of the date of grant. The Monte Carlo valuation model uses multiple simulations to evaluate our probability of achieving various stock price levels to determine our expected performance ranking relative to our peer group. For shares that vest based on market conditions, we expense compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, over the vesting period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately satisfied. Based on the Monte Carlo model, the fair value as of the grant date of the fiscal 2020 grant of shares that vest based on market conditions was $38.75.

Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition	Note 12: Revenue Recognition ​ Our revenue is primarily derived from product sales. We report product sales net of discounts and recognize them when control (rights and obligations associated with the product) passes to the customer. For sales to furniture retailers or distributors, control typically transfers when we ship product. In cases where we sell directly to the end consumer, control of the product is generally transferred upon delivery. ​ For shipping and handling activities, we have elected to apply the accounting policy election permitted in ASC 606-10-25-18B, which allows an entity to account for shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. We expense shipping and handling costs at the time we recognize revenue in accordance with this election. ​ For sales tax, we elected to apply the accounting policy election permitted in ASC 606-10-32-2A, which allows an entity to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer, including sales, use, excise, value-added, and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as sales taxes). This allows us to present revenue net of these certain types of taxes. ​ The following table disaggregates our revenue by product category by segment or unit for the quarter ended July 27, 2019: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Corporate ​ ​ ​ (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) Upholstery Casegoods Retail and Other Total Motion Upholstery Furniture ​ $ 179,522 ​ $ — ​ $ 85,184 ​ $ — ​ $ 264,706 Stationary Upholstery Furniture ​ 87,509 ​ 4,144 ​ 29,153 ​ ​ 22,952 ​ 143,758 Bedroom Furniture ​ — ​ 8,193 ​ 1,447 ​ ​ 1,182 ​ 10,822 Dining Room Furniture ​ — ​ 5,405 ​ 2,599 ​ ​ 394 ​ 8,398 Occasional Furniture ​ 312 ​ 10,823 ​ 5,125 ​ ​ 361 ​ 16,621 Other (1) ​ 26,073 ​ (1,430) ​ 19,488 ​ ​ (4,337) ​ 39,794 Total ​ $ 293,416 ​ $ 27,135 ​ $ 142,996 ​ $ 20,552 ​ 484,099 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Eliminations ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (70,466) ​ ​ ​ Consolidated Net Sales ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 413,633 ​ (1) Primarily includes revenue for delivery, advertising, royalties, parts, accessories, after-treatment products, tariff surcharges, discounts & allowances, rebates and other sales incentives. ​ The following table disaggregates our revenue by product category by segment for the quarter ended July 28, 2018: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) Upholstery Casegoods Retail Total Motion Upholstery Furniture ​ $ 187,659 ​ $ — ​ $ 74,957 ​ $ 262,616 Stationary Upholstery Furniture ​ 85,290 ​ 3,942 ​ 23,164 ​ 112,396 Bedroom Furniture ​ — ​ 8,364 ​ 855 ​ 9,219 Dining Room Furniture ​ — ​ 5,929 ​ 1,583 ​ 7,512 Occasional Furniture ​ 393 ​ 11,988 ​ 3,974 ​ 16,355 Other (1) ​ 20,056 ​ (1,837) ​ 14,695 ​ 32,914 Total ​ $ 293,398 ​ $ 28,386 ​ $ 119,228 ​ 441,012 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Corporate and Other (2) ​ ​ 3,865 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Eliminations ​ (60,182) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Consolidated Net Sales ​ $ 384,695 ​ (1) Primarily includes revenue for delivery, advertising, royalties, parts, accessories, after-treatment products, discounts & allowances, rebates and other sales incentives (2) Primarily includes revenue for royalties and intercompany commissions ​ Motion Upholstery Furniture - Includes gross revenue for upholstered furniture, such as recliners, sofas, loveseats, chairs, sectionals and modulars that have a mechanism that allows the back of the product to recline or the product's footrest to extend.

At July 27, 2019, we included $48.8 million of customer deposits and $18.9 million of deferred revenues in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. At the beginning of fiscal 2020, we had $42.8 million of customer deposits and $17.0 million of deferred revenues. During the quarter ended July 27, 2019, we recognized revenue of $52.4 million related to our contract liabilities. ​ We have elected the practical expedient permitted in ASC 606-10-32-18, which allows an entity to recognize the promised amount of consideration without adjusting for the effects of a significant financing component if the contract has a duration of one year or less. As our contracts typically are less than one year in length and do not have significant financing components, we have not adjusted consideration.

Earnings per Share	Note 15: Earnings per Share ​ Certain share-based compensation awards that entitle their holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends prior to vesting are considered participating securities. Prior to fiscal 2019, we granted restricted stock awards that contained non-forfeitable rights to dividends on unvested shares, and we are required to include these participating securities in calculating our basic earnings per common share, using the two-class method. The restricted stock awards we granted in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2020 do not have non-forfeitable rights to dividends ​ and therefore are not considered participating securities. The dividends on the restricted stock awards granted in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2020 are and will continue to be held in escrow until the stock awards vest at which time we will pay any accumulated dividends. ​ The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators we used in our computations of basic and diluted earnings per share: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Quarter Ended (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) 7/27/19 7/28/18 Numerator (basic and diluted): ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated ​ $ 18,069 ​ $ 18,303 Income allocated to participating securities ​ (39) ​ (76) Net income available to common Shareholders ​ $ 18,030 ​ $ 18,227 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Denominator: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Basic weighted average common shares outstanding ​ 46,820 ​ 46,716 Add: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Contingent common shares ​ 130 ​ 66 Stock option dilution ​ 175 ​ 379 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding ​ ​ 47,125 ​ ​ 47,161 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Earnings per Share: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Basic ​ $ 0.39 ​ $ 0.39 Diluted ​ $ 0.38 ​ $ 0.39 ​ The values for contingent common shares set forth above reflect the dilutive effect of common shares that we would have issued to employees under the terms of performance-based share awards if the relevant performance period for the award had been the reporting period. ​ We had outstanding options to purchase 0.4 million shares for the quarter ended July 27, 2019, with a weighted average exercise price of $33.15. We excluded the effect of these options from our diluted share calculation since the weighted average exercise price of the options was higher than the average market price and including the options’ effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements	Note 16: Fair Value Measurements ​ Accounting standards require that we put financial assets and liabilities into one of three categories based on the inputs we use to value them: ​ ● Level 1 — Financial assets and liabilities the values of which are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access. ● Level 2 — Financial assets and liabilities the values of which are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or on model inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. ● Level 3 — Financial assets and liabilities the values of which are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Accounting standards require that in making fair value measurements, we use observable market data when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, we categorize the fair value measurement as being in the lowest level that is significant to the measurement. We recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period in which they occur. ​ In addition to assets and liabilities that we record at fair value on a recurring basis, we are required to record assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. We measure non-financial assets such as other intangible assets, goodwill, and other long-lived assets at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment, and we record them at fair value only when we recognize an impairment loss. ​ The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities we measured at fair value on a recurring basis at July 27, 2019, and April 27, 2019. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 for any of the periods presented. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ At July 27, 2019 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fair Value Measurements (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Marketable securities ​ $ 10 ​ $ 35,627 ​ $ — Held-to-maturity investments ​ ​ 3,454 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Cost basis investments ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 11,979 Total assets ​ $ 3,464 ​ $ 35,627 ​ $ 11,979 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Liabilities ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Contingent consideration liability ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 7,900 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ At April 27, 2019 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fair Value Measurements (Unaudited, amounts in thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Marketable securities ​ $ 5 ​ $ 34,390 ​ $ — Held-to-maturity investments ​ ​ 3,341 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Cost basis investment ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 11,979 Total assets ​ $ 3,346 ​ $ 34,390 ​ $ 11,979 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Liabilities ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Contingent consideration liability ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ 7,900 ​ At July 27, 2019 and April 27, 2019, we held marketable securities intended to enhance returns on our cash and to fund future obligations of our non-qualified defined benefit retirement plan, as well as marketable securities to fund future obligations of our executive deferred compensation plan and our performance compensation retirement plan. We also held other fixed income and cost basis investments. ​ The fair value measurements for our Level 1 and Level 2 securities are based on quoted prices in active markets, as well as through broker quotes and independent valuation providers, multiplied by the number of shares owned exclusive of any transaction costs. At July 27, 2019, our Level 3 investments included preferred shares of two privately-held companies, and a warrant to purchase common shares of one of these privately- ​ held companies. The fair value for our Level 3 investments is not readily available so we estimate the fair value as costs minus impairment, if any, plus or minus adjustments resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments with the same issuer. Our Level 3 liability includes our contingent consideration liabilities on recent acquisitions. We estimated the provisional fair value of the $7.9 million contingent consideration liability for the acquisition of Joybird. The fair value of contingent consideration is based on future revenues and earnings in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2023. The fair value was determined using a variation of the income approach, known as the real options method, whereby revenue and earnings were simulated over the earn-out periods in a risk-neutral framework using Geometric Brownian Motion. For each simulation path, the potential earn-out payments were calculated based on management’s probability estimates for achievement of the revenue and earnings milestones and then were discounted to the valuation date using a discount rate of ​ There were no changes to the fair value of our Level 3 assets and liabilities during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Our asset leveling presented above does not include certain marketable securities investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value per share under the practical expedient methodology. These investments are still included in the total fair value column of the table in our investment footnote (see Note 7). The fair value of the investments measured using net asset value at July 27, 2019, and April 27, 2019, was $11.4 million and $7.7 million, respectively.
