Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(1) | Organization and Nature of Business |
Founded in 1932 and incorporated in Delaware in 1989, Ethan Allen Interiors Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ethan Allen Global, Inc., and Ethan Allen Global, Inc.’s subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” “Ethan Allen” or the “Company”), is a leading interior design company, manufacturer and retailer in the home furnishings marketplace. Today we are a global luxury international home fashion brand that is vertically integrated from design through delivery, which affords our customers a value proposition of style, quality and price. We provide complimentary interior design service to our customers and sell a full range of furniture products and decorative accents through a retail network of approximately 300 design centers in the United States and abroad as well as online at ethanallen.com. The design centers represent a mix of independent licensees and Company-owned and operated locations. As of December 31, 2020, our Company operates 144 retail design centers, with 138 located in the United States and the remaining six in Canada. The majority of the independently operated design centers are in Asia, with the remaining independently operated design centers located throughout the United States, the Middle East and Europe. We also own and operate nine manufacturing facilities including six manufacturing plants in the United States, two manufacturing plants in Mexico and one manufacturing plant in Honduras.
COVID-19 Update
The COVID-19 crisis has challenged our operations, but our associates continue to persevere through these challenges. Our primary focus has been to operate in a safe manner, for our associates and clients. As our design centers began to reopen, we implemented various mitigating and safety protocols recommended by the United States Center for Disease Control (“CDC”) guidelines for operating businesses safely. We established logistics for the supply of hand sanitizer and related dispensers, disinfectant cleaning supplies, masks and nitrile gloves, and have increased the cleaning frequency of our design centers and other facilities. For the safety of our associates in our design centers we require all associates and clients to wear masks.
In our initial response to the COVID-19 health crisis, we took immediate action and made adjustments to our business operations, including temporary design center and manufacturing plant closings, a reduction in headcount, curtailing certain operating expenses, suspension of our dividend and share repurchases and delaying investments and capital expenditures. Our approach to the crisis continues to evolve as business trends substantially improved during the first half of fiscal 2021. Given the positive trends in cash flows, we repaid the remaining $
We have seen a significant improvement in business conditions, which has increased our profitability and generated strong positive cash flow during fiscal 2021. Substantially all of our design centers that were temporarily closed have reopened and written orders taken at both the retail and wholesale segments exceeded levels from a year ago. Tempering these improvements are the continuing logistical challenges faced by the entire home furnishings industry resulting from COVID-19-related labor shortages and supply chain disruptions creating significant delays in order fulfillment and increasing backlogs. Inventory and supply chain management remain our areas of focus as we balance the need to maintain supply chain flexibility to help ensure competitive lead times with the risk of inventory shortage and obsolescence. We continue to produce about
Whereas some state and local governments have eased restrictions on commercial retail activity, it is possible that a resurgence in COVID-19 cases could prompt a return to tighter restrictions in certain areas. Furthermore, while the home furnishings industry has fared better during the pandemic than certain other sectors of the economy, continued economic weakness may eventually have an adverse impact upon our business. While we continue to serve our customers and operate our business while managing the ongoing COVID-19 health crisis, there can be no assurance that future COVID-19 related developments will not have an impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition since the extent and duration of the health crisis remains highly uncertain. We will continue to make decisions regarding the sources and uses of capital in our business to reflect and adapt to changes in market conditions, including any lasting effects of COVID-19. Future adverse developments in connection with the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, including additional waves of COVID-19 outbreaks, evolving international, federal, state and local restrictions and safety regulations in response to COVID-19, changes in consumer behavior, health concerns, the pace of economic activity in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, or other similar issues could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition in the future, or including our financial results and business performance for fiscal 2021.

(2) | Interim Basis of Presentation |
Use of Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas in which significant estimates have been made include, but are not limited to, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment analyses, useful lives for property, plant and equipment, inventory obsolescence, lease accounting, business insurance reserves, tax valuation allowances, the evaluation of uncertain tax positions and other loss reserves.
Principles of Consolidation
We conduct business globally and have strategically aligned our business into
Reclassifications
The Company reclassified in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income certain prior year comparative figures from Interest income, net of interest (expense) to Interest and other financing costs and Other income (expense), net to conform to the current year’s presentation. In addition, the Company reclassified in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows certain prior year comparative figures from Other financing activities to Proceeds from employee stock plans within Net cash used in financing activities to conform to the current year's presentation. These changes were made for disclosure purposes only and did not have any impact on previously reported results.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the consolidated financial statements were issued.
(3) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
New Accounting Standards or Updates Recently Adopted
Credit Losses of Financial Instruments – In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance through ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU 2020-03 (collectively, the “ASUs”). The ASUs requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The guidance applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, such as receivables that result from revenue transactions. Accounts receivable is presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts as a result of the assessment of the collectability of customer accounts, which is recorded based on an overall aging analysis and a review of specifically identified accounts, which considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. We adopted the ASUs as of July 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of retained earnings. We did not recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment upon adoption as the adoption of the ASUs did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Implementation Costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement – In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract, an update related to a client’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in a cloud computing service contract with the guidance for capitalizing implementation costs to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). Capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, beginning when the module or component of the hosting arrangement is ready for its intended use. We adopted the new guidance as of July 1, 2020 using a prospective method. We capitalize implementation costs related to hosted arrangements, which typically include multi-year service terms with additional renewal periods generally ranging from
to years. The related assets are recorded within Prepaid expenses and other current assets (for service terms less than one year) or Other assets (for service terms greater than one year) on our consolidated balance sheets, net of accumulated amortization for assets placed in service. The amortization of assets placed in service is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses, consistent with the costs of the hosting arrangement, on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the term of the hosting arrangement, which includes reasonably certain renewal periods. The adoption of the accounting standard update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting – In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, an update that provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This accounting standards update is intended to ease the process of migrating away from LIBOR to new reference rates. ASU 2020-04 was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, but did not have a material impact on our accounting policies or our consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Standards or Updates Not Yet Effective
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes – In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, an update intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This accounting standards update will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standards update, but do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
No other new accounting pronouncements issued or effective as of December 31, 2020 have had or are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
(4) | Revenue Recognition |
Our reported revenue (net sales) consist substantially of product sales. We report product sales net of discounts and recognize them at the point in time when control transfers to the customer. For sales to our customers in our wholesale segment, control typically transfers when the product is shipped. The majority of our shipping agreements are freight-on-board shipping point and risk of loss transfers to our wholesale customer once the product is out of our control. Accordingly, revenue is recognized for product shipments on third-party carriers at the point in time that our product is loaded onto the third-party container or truck. For sales in our retail segment, control generally transfers upon delivery to the customer. We 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.
Our practice has been to sell our products at the same delivered cost to all retailers and customers nationwide, regardless of shipping point. Costs incurred by the Company to deliver finished goods are expensed and recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. We recognize shipping and handling expense 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. Accordingly, we record the expenses for shipping and handling activities at the same time we recognize net sales. We 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). Sales taxes collected is not recognized as revenue but is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets as it is ultimately remitted to governmental authorities.
ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Estimated refunds for returns and allowances are based on our historical return patterns. We record these estimated sales refunds on a gross basis rather than on a net basis and have recorded an asset for product we expect to receive back from customers in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and a corresponding refund liability in Other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, these amounts were immaterial.
We capitalize commission fees paid to our associates as contract assets within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. These prepaid commissions are subsequently recognized as a selling expense upon delivery (when we have transferred control of our product to our customer). At December 31, 2020, we had prepaid commissions of $
In many cases we receive deposits from customers before we have transferred control of our product to our customers, resulting in contract liabilities. These customer deposits are reported as a current liability in Customer deposits and deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2020 we had customer deposits of $

Both goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized as they are estimated to have an indefinite life. We evaluate goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may exceed fair value.

(8) | Leases |
We have operating leases for many of our design centers that expire at various dates through fiscal 2040. In addition, we also lease certain tangible assets, including computer equipment and vehicles with initial lease terms ranging from
to years. 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. Certain operating leases have renewal options and rent escalation clauses as well as various purchase options. 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 these criteria are included in the lease term at lease commencement.
The Company's lease terms and discount rates are as follows:
December 31, | ||||||||
2020 | 2019 | |||||||
Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) | ||||||||
Operating leases | ||||||||
Financing leases | ||||||||
Weighted-average discount rate | ||||||||
Operating leases | % | % | ||||||
Financing leases | % | % |
Lease expense for operating leases consists of both fixed and variable components. Expense related to fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred, where applicable, and include certain index-based changes in rent, certain non-lease components, such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor, and other charges included in the lease. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. In addition, certain of our equipment lease agreements include variable lease payments, which are based on the usage of the underlying asset. The variable portion of payments are not included in the initial measurement of the asset or lease liability due to uncertainty of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expense in the period incurred.

(2) | Leases with initial terms of one year or less are not capitalized and instead expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. |
(3) | Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred, where applicable, and include certain index-based changes in rent, certain non-lease components, such as maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and other services provided by the lessor, and other charges included in the lease. |

(12) | Earnings Per Share |
We compute basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated similarly, except that the weighted average outstanding shares are adjusted to include the effects of converting all potentially dilutive share-based awards issued under our employee stock plans. The number of potential common shares outstanding are determined in accordance with the treasury stock method to the extent they are dilutive.
Basic and diluted EPS are calculated using the following weighted average share data (in thousands):

Our operating segments are aligned with how the Company, including our chief operating decision maker, manages the business. As such, our reportable operating segments are the wholesale segment and the retail segment.

We evaluate performance of the respective segments based upon revenues and operating income. Inter-segment transactions result, primarily, from the wholesale sale of inventory to the retail segment, including the related profit margin.
