1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

 

Foot Locker, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries ("Foot Locker," "Company," "we," "our," and "us"), is a leading footwear and apparel retailer. We have integrated all available shopping channels, including stores, websites, apps, and social channels. Store sales are primarily fulfilled from the store’s inventory, but may also be shipped from any of our distribution centers or from a different store location if an item is not available at the original store. Direct-to-customer orders are generally shipped to our customers through our distribution centers but may also be shipped from any store or a combination of our distribution centers and stores depending on availability of particular items. We operate in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific, representing our operating segments. We aggregate these operating segments into one reportable segment based upon their shared customer base and similar economic characteristics.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. 

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There were no significant changes to the policies disclosed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these Notes and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, estimates of loss contingencies, estimates of the valuation of lease liabilities and the related right of use assets, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Other than the pronouncements disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, no other recently issued accounting pronouncements did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material effect on our present or future consolidated financial statements.
