The Company manufactures, markets, and sells its products throughout the world and, as a result, is subject to changing economic conditions, which could reduce the demand for its products or increase the demand for components and raw materials purchased by the Company. Direct Material Costs The Company is exposed to risks arising from price changes for certain direct materials and assembly components used in its operations. The largest of such costs incurred by the Company are for steel, plastics, textiles, wood particleboard and aluminum components. The impact from changes in all commodity prices increased the Company's costs by approximately $0.9 million during fiscal 2026 compared to the prior year primarily due to increased steel costs. The impact from changes in commodity prices decreased the Company's costs by approximately $5.7 million during fiscal 2025 as compared to fiscal 2024. Note that these changes include the impact of tariffs on the Company's direct material costs. The market prices for commodities will fluctuate over time and the Company acknowledges that such changes are likely to impact its costs for key direct materials and assembly components. Consequently, it views the prospect of such changes as an outlook risk to the business. Significant increases in the cost of raw materials can be difficult to offset with price increases due to existing contractual agreements with customers as well as difficulty finding effective financial instruments to hedge these changes. Our profitability could be negatively impacted in the long term if we are not able to pass along higher raw material costs to our customers. Foreign Exchange Risk The Company primarily manufactures its products in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, China, Italy, India, Mexico and Brazil. It also sources completed products and product components from outside the United States. The Company's completed products are sold in numerous countries around the world. Sales in foreign countries as well as certain expenses related to those sales are transacted in currencies other than the Company's reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, production costs and profit margins related to these sales are affected by the currency exchange relationship between the countries where the sales take place and the countries where the products are sourced or manufactured. These currency exchange relationships can also impact the Company's competitive positions within these markets. In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts denominated in foreign currencies. The principal foreign currencies in which the Company conducts its business are the British pound sterling, euro, Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, Hong Kong dollar, Chinese renminbi, and the Danish krone. As of May 30, 2026, the Company had outstanding 18 forward currency instruments designed to offset either net asset or net liability exposure that is denominated in non-functional currencies. (In millions of local currency,, except number of forward contracts) Net Asset Exposure Currency Number of Forward Contracts Net Exposure USD 3 45.7 CAD 2 9.1 EUR 1 0.5 GBP 1 3.0 JPY 1 857.3 Net Liability Exposure Currency Number of Forward Contracts Net Exposure GBP 6 62.6 EUR 2 6.0 DKK 1 25.6 USD 1 24.2 42 As of May 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding 21 forward currency instruments designed to offset either net asset or net liability exposure that is denominated in non-functional currencies. (In millions of local currency, except number of forward contracts) Net Asset Exposure Currency Number of Forward Contracts Net Exposure USD 10 91.5 EUR 3 38.0 CNY 1 24.0 Net Liability Exposure Currency Number of Forward Contracts Net Exposure USD 6 34.5 EUR 1 1.1 The cost of the foreign currency hedges and remeasuring all foreign currency transactions into the appropriate functional currency resulted in a net loss of $0.9 million in fiscal 2026 compared to a net loss of $6.1 million in fiscal 2025 included in net earnings. These amounts are included in Other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Additionally, the cumulative effect of translating the balance sheet and income statement accounts from the functional currency into the United States dollar increased the accumulated comprehensive loss component of total stockholders' equity by $19.6 million compared to an increase of $35.1 million as of the end of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. Interest Rate Risk The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rate changes and its overall cost of borrowing. The Company's interest rate swap agreements were entered into to exchange variable rate interest payments for fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. The notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements is used to measure interest to be paid or received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. The differential paid or received on the interest rate swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. As of May 30, 2026, the Company had $299.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility and term loans which were not covered by the interest rate swap agreements. Based on the Company's variable-rate debt balance outstanding at May 30, 2026, a hypothetical 100 basis point change in the applicable interest rates would have an estimated $3.0 million annual impact on the interest expense incurred by the Company. These interest rate swap derivative instruments are held and used by the Company as a tool for managing interest rate risk. They are not used for trading or speculative purposes. The counterparties to the swap instruments are large financial institutions that the Company believes are of high-quality creditworthiness. While the Company may be exposed to potential losses due to the credit risk of non-performance by these counterparties, such losses are not anticipated. In September 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million with a forward start date of January 3, 2018, and a termination date of January 3, 2028. As a result of the transaction, the Company effectively converted the interest rate on indebtedness anticipated to be borrowed on its revolving line of credit up to the notional amount from a LIBOR-based floating interest rate plus applicable margin to a 1.949% fixed interest rate plus applicable margin as of the forward start date. The swap agreement was amended in February 2023 for each calculation period beginning on February 3, 2023, and thereafter, to replace the LIBOR-based floating interest rate with a Term SOFR rate, and a 1.910% modified fixed interest rate. In May 2025, the swap agreement was amended to remove the 0.11448% floor and related CSA. 43 In June 2017, the Company entered into a second interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $75.0 million with a forward start date of January 3, 2018, and a termination date of January 3, 2028. As a result of the transaction, the Company effectively converted the interest rate on indebtedness anticipated to be borrowed on its revolving line of credit up to the notional amount from a LIBOR-based floating interest rate plus applicable margin to a 2.387% fixed interest rate plus applicable margin under the agreement as of the forward start date. The swap agreement was amended in February 2023 for each calculation period beginning on February 3, 2023, and thereafter, to replace the LIBOR-based floating interest rate with a Term SOFR rate, and a 2.348% modified fixed interest rate. In May 2025, the swap agreement was amended to remove the 0.11448% floor and related CSA. In January 2022, the Company entered into a third interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $575.0 million with a forward start date of January 31, 2022, and a maturity date of January 29, 2027. The interest rate swap locked in the Company’s interest rate on forecasted outstanding borrowings of $575.0 million at 1.689% exclusive of the credit spread on the variable rate debt. The Company effectively will convert LIBOR-based floating interest rate plus applicable margin indebtedness to a 1.689% fixed interest rate plus applicable margin under the agreement as of the forward start date. The swap agreement was amended in February 2023 for each calculation period beginning on January 31, 2023, and thereafter, to replace the LIBOR-based floating interest rate with a Term SOFR rate, and a 1.650% modified fixed interest rate. In May 2025, the swap agreement was amended to remove the 0.11448% floor and related CSA. In February 2023, the Company entered into a fourth interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million with a forward start date of March 3, 2023, and a termination date of January 3, 2029. The interest rate swap locked in the Company’s interest rate on the forecasted outstanding borrowings of $150.0 million at 3.950% exclusive of the credit spread on the variable rate debt. As a result of the transaction, under the terms of the agreement the Company effectively will convert one month Term SOFR floating interest rate plus applicable margin to 3.950% fixed interest rate plus applicable margin as of the forward start date. In February 2026, the Company entered into a forward-starting interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million, with a forward start date of January 29, 2027, and a termination date of January 31, 2030. The interest rate swap locked in the Company's interest rate on the forecasted outstanding borrowings of $200.0 million at 3.380% exclusive of the credit spread on the variable rate debt. As a result of the transaction, under the terms of the agreement the Company effectively will convert one month Term SOFR floating interest rate plus applicable margin to 3.380% fixed interest rate plus applicable margin as of the forward start date. The fair market value of the effective interest rate swap instruments was a net asset of $16.2 million and $26.1 million as of May 30, 2026, and May 31, 2025, respectively. All cash flows related to the Company's interest rate swap instruments are denominated in U.S. Dollars. For further information, refer to Note 5 and Note 11 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Expected cash outflows (notional amounts) over the next five years related to debt instruments are as follows.
