Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed) that management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2022, filed with the SEC on June 23, 2022. Results may vary from quarter to quarter for reasons other than seasonality.

Financial Reporting Periods

Financial reporting periods

The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to April 30. The three months ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 were both 13-week periods, and the six months ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 were both 26-week periods.

Use of Estimates

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of significant accounting policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2022. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies in the six months ended October 29, 2022.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In November 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832),” which requires annual disclosures when an entity has received government assistance. This guidance is intended to improve the transparency of government assistance received by requiring disclosure of: (1) the types of government assistance received; (2) the accounting for such assistance; and (3) the effect of the assistance on the registrant’s financial statements. The Company will adopt this standard effective April 29, 2023 and expects the standard to only impact annual financial statement footnote disclosures.

Revenue

The Company generates revenue from the manufacturing of products for customers in diversified global markets. The substantial majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company has determined that the most definitive demonstration that control of the product has transferred to a customer is physical shipment or delivery, depending on the contractual shipping terms, except for consignment transactions. Consignment transactions are arrangements where the Company transfers product to a customer location but retains ownership and control of the product until it is used by the customer. Revenue for consignment arrangements is recognized upon the customer’s usage.

Revenue associated with products which the Company believes have no alternative use (such as highly customized parts), and where the Company has an enforceable right to payment, are recognized on an over time basis. Revenue is recognized based on progress to date, which is typically even over the production process through transfer of control to the customer.

From time to time, customers may negotiate annual price downs. Management has evaluated these price downs and determined that in some instances, these price downs give rise to a material right. In instances that a material right exists, a portion of the transaction price is allocated to the material right and recognized over the life of the contract.

Across all products, the amount of revenue recognized corresponds to the related purchase order and is adjusted for variable consideration (such as discounts). Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

The Company’s performance obligations are typically short-term in nature. As a result, the Company has elected the practical expedient that provides an exemption from the disclosure requirements regarding information about remaining performance obligations on contracts that have original expected durations of one year or less.

Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower-of-cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Finished products and work-in-process inventories include direct material costs and direct and indirect manufacturing costs. The Company records reserves for inventory that may be obsolete or in excess of current and future market demand.
Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method using estimated useful lives of 5 to 40 years for buildings and building improvements and 3 to 15 years for machinery and equipment.
Income per Share

Basic income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the applicable period but excludes any contingently issued shares where the contingency has not been resolved. The weighted average number of common shares used in the diluted income per share calculation is determined using the treasury stock method which includes the effect of all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.

Contingencies

Certain litigation arising in the normal course of business is pending against us. The Company is, from time-to-time, subject to various legal actions and claims incidental to our business, including those arising out of alleged defects, breach of contracts, employment-related matters, environmental matters and intellectual property matters. The Company considers insurance coverage and third-party indemnification when determining required accruals for pending litigation and claims. Although the outcome of potential legal actions and claims cannot be determined, it is the Company's opinion, based on the information available, that it has adequate reserves for these liabilities.
