Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
ASU 2025-07: Derivates and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (TOPIC 606)
Effective beginning fiscal year 2026, the Company prospectively adopted the amended guidance issued by the FASB that adds a scope exception to exclude from derivative accounting non-exchange-traded contracts with variables (underlyings) that are based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. The adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
There were no new material accounting standards issued in the fiscal first quarter of 2026.
Supplier finance program obligations
The Company has agreements for supplier finance programs with third-party financial institutions. These programs provide enrolled suppliers the ability to finance payment obligations from the Company with the third-party financial institutions. The Company is not a party to the arrangements between the suppliers and the third-party financial institutions. The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due, and scheduled payment dates (which have general payment terms of 90 days), are not affected by a participating supplier’s decision to join in the program.
Confirmed obligations under the program as of March 29, 2026, and December 28, 2025, were $0.7 billion and $0.8 billion, respectively. The obligations are presented as Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
