| Basis of Presentation and Organization |
NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
Columbia Sportswear Company connects active people with their passions through its four brands, Columbia, SOREL, Mountain Hardwear, and prAna, by designing, developing, marketing, and distributing its outdoor, active and lifestyle apparel, footwear, accessories, and equipment products to meet the diverse needs of its customers and consumers.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Columbia Sportswear Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which it maintains a controlling financial interest (the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The Company's significant estimates relate to sales reserves, excess, close-out and slow-moving inventory, impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, and income taxes.
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through disaggregation of specific rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on a retrospective basis within this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The adoption resulted in enhanced disclosures which can be found within Note 10 of these consolidated financial statements.
