Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries. We consolidate entities in which we maintain a controlling interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. We also consolidate variable interest entities when appropriate.
Investments in entities where our equity ownership falls between 20% and 50%, or where we otherwise have significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All other investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. These investments are reported as Investments in unconsolidated affiliates on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and income (losses) from equity method investments and any adjustments to cost method investments are reported in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 12 for additional information.
Fiscal Year
Our fiscal year ends on the last Friday in February, with each fiscal quarter typically including 13 weeks. The fiscal year ended February 28, 2025 contained 53 weeks, with Q4 2025 containing 14 weeks. The fiscal years ended February 23, 2024 and February 24, 2023 contained 52 weeks. Reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than the calendar year, unless indicated by a month or specific date reference. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on historical data and management’s knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include demand bank deposits and highly liquid investment securities with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash equivalents are reported at cost and approximate fair value. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are classified as Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our restricted cash balance as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024 was $7.5 and $7.3, respectively, and consisted primarily of funds held in escrow for potential future workers’ compensation and product liability claims. Our restricted cash balance is classified in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Allowances for Credit Losses
Allowances for credit losses related to accounts receivable and notes receivable are maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to absorb an estimate of probable future losses existing at the balance sheet date. In estimating probable losses, we review accounts that are past due or in bankruptcy. We consider an accounts receivable or notes receivable balance past due when payment is not received within the stated terms. We review accounts that may have higher credit risk using information available about the debtor, such as financial statements, news reports and published credit ratings. We also use general information regarding industry trends, the economic environment and information gathered through our network of field-based employees. Using an estimate of current fair market value of any applicable collateral and other credit enhancements, such as third party guarantees, we arrive at an estimated loss for specific concerns and estimate an additional amount for the remainder of trade balances based on historical trends and other factors previously referenced. Receivable balances are written off when we determine the balance is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to bad debt expense when received.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Our trade receivables are due from independent dealers as well as direct customers. We monitor and manage the credit risk associated with individual dealers and direct customers. Dealers are responsible for assessing and assuming credit risk of their customers and may require their customers to provide deposits, letters of credit or other credit enhancement measures. Some sales contracts are structured such that the customer payment or obligation is direct to us. In those cases, we typically assume the credit risk. Whether from dealers or direct customers, our trade credit exposures are not concentrated with any particular entity or industry.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Americas segment primarily uses the last in, first out (“LIFO”) and the first in, first out ("FIFO") methods to value its inventories. The International segment values inventories primarily using FIFO. See Note 8 for additional information.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements that materially extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. See Note 9 for additional information.
Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment when conditions indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We evaluate several conditions, including, but not limited to, the following: a significant decrease in the market price of an asset or an asset group; a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used, including an extended period of idleness; and a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. We review the carrying value of our held and used long-lived assets utilizing estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its estimated fair value.
When assets are classified as “held for sale,” losses are recorded for the difference between the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment and the estimated fair value less estimated selling costs. Assets are considered “held for sale” when there is an active program to locate a buyer, and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and is expected to be sold within twelve months.
Cloud Computing Arrangements
We capitalize implementation costs of a cloud computing arrangement with a useful life greater than one year consistent with the capitalization criteria used for internal-use software. Costs incurred during the application-development phase, subject to certain exceptions, are capitalized after the preliminary project phase is completed and management commits to funding the project. Capitalized costs include fees paid to consultants to implement the software, payroll and payroll-related costs of employees to the extent of the time spent directly on the project and interest costs, if appropriate. Capitalized costs are recorded to Prepaid expenses and Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and within Net cash provided by operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Capitalization of costs ceases at the point when the software associated with the cloud computing arrangement is ready for its intended use. Subsequent enhancements or upgrades are capitalized only to the extent that they add significant new functionality, and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Amortization of capitalized costs is recorded over the initial term of the related cloud computing arrangement, including renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised.
In Q3 2024, we entered the application-development phase of a multi-year, phased implementation of a new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system which is expected to replace our current ERP system and various other supporting systems for operating and financial processes. As of February 28, 2025, we have capitalized $59.1 of costs related to development activities incurred in the implementation of the new ERP system. Capitalized costs associated with other cloud computing arrangements were immaterial as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the related underlying tangible and identifiable intangible net asset fair values resulting from business acquisitions. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually in Q4, or earlier if conditions indicate there may be potential for impairment, such as significant adverse changes in business climate or operating results, changes in our strategy, significant declines in our stock price or other triggering events. Goodwill is assigned to and the fair value is tested at the reporting unit level. We compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the difference is recorded as an impairment charge. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using the income approach, which calculates the fair value of each reporting unit based on the present value of its estimated future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration industry and market conditions. The discount rates used are based on the estimated weighted-average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business-specific characteristics and the uncertainty related to the reporting units' ability to execute on the projected cash flows. We corroborate the results determined using the income approach with a market-based approach that uses observable and comparable company information to support the appropriateness of the fair value estimates. The estimation of the fair value of our reporting units represents a Level 3 measurement.
In 2025 and 2024, we evaluated goodwill and intangible assets using nine reporting units: the Americas, EMEA, Asia Pacific, Designtex, AMQ, Smith System, Orangebox U.K., Viccarbe and HALCON. See Note 11 for additional information.
Other intangible assets subject to amortization consist primarily of dealer relationships, trademarks, know-how/designs and proprietary technology and are amortized over their estimated useful economic lives using the straight-line method. Other intangible assets not subject to amortization are accounted for and evaluated for potential impairment using an income approach based on the cash flows attributable to the related products. See Note 11 for additional information.
Supplier Finance Program
We participate in a supplier finance program in Spain offered by a third-party financial institution. The program allows participating suppliers the ability to finance our payment obligations prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price set by the financial institution. We have extended payment terms with suppliers that have voluntarily chosen to participate in the program. The outstanding amount of program obligations is reported in Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Below is a roll-forward of the supplier finance program obligations during 2025:

Loss contingencies are accrued if the loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with potential loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Based on known information, we do not believe we are party to any lawsuit or proceeding, individually and in the aggregate, that is likely to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Self-Insurance
We are self-insured for certain losses relating to domestic workers’ compensation and product liability claims. We purchase insurance coverage to reduce our exposure to significant levels of uncertainty for these claims. Self-insured losses are accrued based upon estimates of the aggregate liability for uninsured claims incurred as of the balance sheet date using current and historical claims experience and actuarial assumptions. These estimates are subject to uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including extended lag times in the reporting and resolution of claims, trends or changes in claim settlement patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations. As a result, actual costs could differ from the estimated amounts. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

Product Warranties
We offer warranties ranging from three years to lifetime for most of our products, subject to certain exceptions. These warranties provide for the free repair or replacement of any covered product, part or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in materials or workmanship. The accrued liability for product warranties is based on an estimated amount needed to cover product warranty costs, including product recall and retrofit costs, incurred as of the balance sheet date.
We use an actuarial model to estimate our product warranty liability using actual paid claims over at least ten years and other actuarial assumptions, which provide a basis for expected future losses using actuarial assumptions.
These estimates are subject to uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including changes in claim rates and patterns. As a result, actual costs could differ significantly from the estimated amounts. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. Accruals related to product warranties, recalls, retrofits and changes in claims experience or trends that impact our estimated product warranty liability are recorded to Cost of sales.

Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits
We sponsor a number of domestic and foreign plans to provide pension benefits and medical and life insurance benefits to retired employees. We measure the net over-funded or under-funded positions of our defined benefit pension plans and post-retirement benefit plans as of the end of each fiscal year and display that position as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any unrecognized prior service credit (cost) or actuarial gains (losses) are reported, net of tax, as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. See Note 14 for additional information.
Environmental Matters
Environmental expenditures related to current operations are expensed as incurred. Expenditures related to an existing condition allegedly caused by past operations, and not associated with current or future revenue generation, are typically recognized upon completion of a feasibility study or our commitment to a formal plan of action. Liabilities are recorded on a discounted basis when site-specific plans indicate the amount and timing of cash payments which are fixed and reliably determinable. We have ongoing monitoring and identification processes to assess how known exposures are progressing against the accrued cost estimates, as well as processes to identify other potential exposures.

As of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, environmental liabilities were discounted using a rate of 3.5% when the amount and timing of cash payments are fixed and reliably determinable, and our undiscounted liabilities were $4.9 and $3.1, respectively. Based on our ongoing evaluation of these matters, we believe we have accrued sufficient reserves to cover the costs of all known environmental assessments and the remediation costs of all known sites.
Asset Retirement Obligations
We record all known asset retirement obligations for which the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. We also have known conditional asset retirement obligations that are not reasonably estimable due to insufficient information about the timing and method of settlement of the obligation. Accordingly, these obligations have not been recorded in the consolidated financial statements. A liability for these obligations will be recorded in the period when sufficient information regarding timing and method of settlement becomes available to make a reasonable estimate of the liability’s fair value. In addition, there may be conditional asset retirement obligations we have not yet discovered, and therefore, these obligations also have not been included in the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenue consists substantially of product sales and related service revenue. Product sales are reported net of discounts and are recognized when control, consisting of the rights and obligations associated with the sale, passes to the purchaser. For sales to our dealers, this typically occurs when product is shipped from our manufacturing or distribution facilities. In cases where we sell directly to customers, control is typically transferred upon delivery to the customer and, in some cases, following installation and acceptance by the customer. Service revenue is recognized when the services have been rendered. We account for shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities even if those activities are performed after the control of the product has been transferred. We expense shipping and handling costs at the time revenue is recognized. Revenue does not include sales tax or any other taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are imposed on and concurrent with a specific sale, such as use, excise, value-added and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as "consumption taxes"). We consider ourselves a pass-through entity for collecting and remitting these consumption taxes.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes material, labor, freight and overhead incurred directly related to the procurement, manufacturing and delivery of our products. Included within these categories are such items as employee compensation expense, logistics costs (including shipping and handling costs), facilities expense, depreciation, contract labor costs and warranty expense.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses not directly related to the procurement, manufacturing and delivery of our products. Included in these expenses are items such as employee compensation expense, facilities expense, depreciation, research and development expense, royalty expense, information technology services, professional services and travel and entertainment expense.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses, which we define as expenses related to the investigative activities we conduct to lead to the development of new products and to improve existing products and procedures, are expensed as incurred and were $50.4 for 2025, $48.2 for 2024 and $44.4 for 2023.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax bases. These deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the period that includes the enactment date.
We establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All evidence, both positive and negative, is identified and considered in making the determination. Future realization of the existing deferred tax asset depends, in part, on the existence of sufficient taxable income of appropriate character within the carryforward period available under tax law applicable in the jurisdiction in which the related deferred tax assets were generated.
We have net operating loss carryforwards available in certain jurisdictions to reduce future taxable income. Future tax benefits associated with net operating loss carryforwards are recognized to the extent that realization of these benefits is considered more likely than not. This determination is based on the expectation that related operations will be sufficiently profitable or various tax, business and other planning strategies will enable us to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards within the carryforward period. In making this determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence. To the extent that available evidence raises doubt about the realization of a deferred income tax asset, a valuation allowance is established.
We record reserves for uncertain tax positions except to the extent it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Periodic changes in reserves for uncertain tax positions are reflected in the provision for income taxes. See Note 16 for additional information.
Share-Based Compensation
Our share-based compensation consists of restricted stock units and performance units. Our policy is to expense share-based compensation using the fair-value based method of accounting for all awards granted, modified or settled. Restricted stock units and performance units are credited to shareholders' equity as they are expensed over the related service periods based on the grant date fair value of the shares expected to be issued and the achievement of certain performance conditions, respectively. See Note 17 for additional information.
Leases
We have operating leases for corporate offices, sales offices, showrooms, manufacturing and distribution facilities, vehicles and equipment. We record a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for operating leases with terms greater than one year. Lease terms utilized in determining right-of-use assets and lease liabilities include the noncancellable portion of the underlying leases along with any reasonably certain lease periods associated with available renewal periods. Our leases do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, we use an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate represents the estimated rate of interest we would have had to pay to borrow (on a collateralized basis) an amount equal to the lease payments for a similar period of time.
We do not separate non-lease components of a contract from the lease components to which they relate for all classes of lease assets except for embedded leases, which were immaterial in 2025. See Note 18 for additional information.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, long-term investment, foreign exchange forward contracts and contingent earnout liability are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our total debt is carried at cost and was $447.1 and $446.3 as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $432.8 and $423.0 as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, respectively. The estimation of the fair value of our total debt is based on Level 2 fair value measurements. See Note 7 and Note 13 for additional information.
We may use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.
We evaluate contractual obligations to transfer additional cash to the sellers of companies we acquire as either a compensation arrangement or contingent consideration. We evaluate these obligations based on the terms and duration of continuing employment of the sellers post-acquisition, the linkage to the underlying valuation of the acquired company and the obligations taken in the context of other contracts or agreements. Compensation arrangements are recorded in Operating expenses as services are rendered post-acquisition. Contingent consideration obligations are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition dates. At each subsequent reporting date, changes in the fair value of the liabilities are recorded to Operating expenses until the liabilities are settled. See Note 7 for additional information.
Foreign Currency
For most foreign operations, local currencies are considered the functional currencies. We translate assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries to their U.S. dollar equivalents at exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets unless and until a sale or a substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the international subsidiary takes place. We translate Consolidated Statements of Income accounts at average exchange rates for the applicable period.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, net of derivative impacts, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on foreign currency denominated intercompany loans and other intercompany transactions and balances between foreign locations, are recorded in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
A portion of our revenue and earnings is exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk largely through operational means, including matching revenues with same currency costs and assets with same currency liabilities. Foreign exchange risk is also partially managed through the use of derivative instruments. Foreign exchange forward contracts serve to reduce the risk of conversion or remeasurement of certain foreign denominated transactions, assets and liabilities. We primarily use derivatives for intercompany transactions (including loans) and certain forecasted currency flows from foreign-denominated transactions. The foreign exchange forward contracts primarily relate to the Mexican peso, the euro, the United Kingdom ("U.K.") pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar, the Malaysian ringgit and the Chinese renminbi. See Note 7 for additional information.
Assets and liabilities related to foreign exchange forward contracts as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024 are summarized below:

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]  
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
We evaluate all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for consideration of their applicability to our consolidated financial statements. We have assessed all ASUs issued but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are either not applicable to us or are not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In 2025, we adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve disclosures related to significant segment expenses and the information used by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to assess segment performance and to allocate resources. We adopted this guidance on a retrospective basis, which modified our annual disclosures beginning in 2025 but did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. See Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40) - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which is intended to improve disclosures through disaggregation of certain commonly presented expense captions. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, which was clarified in ASU 2025-01. We expect the adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to improve income tax disclosures, specifically related to additional detail required in the effective tax rate reconciliation and the disaggregation of income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We expect the adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Share EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities represent restricted stock units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period. Diluted earnings per share includes the effects of certain performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period.

Fair Value Measures and Disclosures

Feb. 28, 2025
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] FAIR VALUE
Fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
Level 1 — Inputs based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 — Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use to price the asset or liability at the measurement date in model-driven valuations. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrument’s valuation.
Fair value measurements are classified according to the lowest level input or value-driver that is significant to the valuation. A measurement may therefore be classified within Level 3 even though there may be other significant inputs that are readily observable.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value within our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024 are summarized below:

Managed Investment Portfolio and Other Investments
Starting in 2025, we invested in a managed investment portfolio which consists of corporate debt securities, asset-backed securities and U.S. government debt securities. These investments are considered available-for-sale and are classified as Short-term investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of February 28, 2025, the fair value of our Short-term investments was $41.6. We have instructed our investment manager to operate under a mandate to keep the average duration of investments under two years. Fair values for these investments are based upon valuations for identical or similar instruments in active markets, with the resulting net unrealized holding gains or losses reflected net of tax as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The cost basis for these investments, determined using the specific identification method, was $41.0 and unrealized gains were $0.6 as of February 28, 2025. Of our total short-term investments, $7.7 mature within one year and $33.9 mature after one year to five years.
Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
We occasionally enter into forward contracts to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on foreign-denominated transactions, assets and liabilities. We primarily use derivatives for intercompany transactions (including loans) and certain forecasted currency flows from foreign-denominated transactions. The fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts is based on a valuation model that calculates the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate as of the balance sheet date.

There were no other-than-temporary impairments or transfers into or out of Level 3 during either 2025 or 2024. Our policy is to value any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy based on end of period fair values.
Auction Rate Security
As of February 28, 2025, we held an auction rate security (“ARS”) investment with a total par value of $3.2 and a fair value of $2.8. The difference between par value and fair value is comprised of other-than-temporary impairment losses recorded in previous fiscal years and unrealized gains on our ARS investment of $0.9 and $0.5, respectively. The unrealized gains are due to changes in interest rates and are expected to fluctuate over the contractual term of the investment. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The ARS investment is not widely traded and therefore does not currently have a readily determinable market value. To estimate fair value, we used an internally-developed discounted cash flow analysis which considers, amongst other factors: (i) the credit ratings of the ARS, (ii) the credit quality of the underlying securities or the credit ratings of issuers, (iii) the estimated timing and amount of cash flows, (iv) the formula applicable to the security which defines the penalty interest rate and (v) discount rates equal to the sum of (a) the yield on U.S. Treasury securities with a term through the estimated workout date plus (b) a risk premium based on similarly rated observable securities.
A deterioration in market conditions or the use of different assumptions could result in a different valuation of the investment. An increase to the discount rate of 100 basis points would reduce the estimated fair value of our ARS investment by approximately $0.3.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with the acquisition of Viccarbe Habitat, S.L ("Viccarbe") in Q3 2022, up to an additional $13.6 (or €13.0) was payable to the sellers based upon the achievement of certain revenue and operating income targets over a three-year period which ended in 2025. This amount was considered to be contingent consideration and was treated for accounting purposes as part of the total purchase price of the acquisition. We used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the contingent consideration as of the acquisition date, which represents a Level 3 measurement. At each subsequent reporting date, changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded to Operating expenses until the liability is settled. As of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $0.0 based upon the results of the Viccarbe business over the earnout period.

Our investments in COLI policies are recorded at their net cash surrender value.
Our investments in COLI are intended to be utilized as a long-term funding source for post-retirement medical benefits, deferred compensation and defined benefit pension plan obligations. The designation of our COLI investments as funding sources for our long-term benefit plan obligations does not result in these investments representing a committed funding source for these obligations. We can designate any portion of them to another purpose at any time.
The net returns in cash surrender value, normal insurance expenses and any maturity benefits related to our investments in COLI policies ("COLI income") are recorded in Operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. COLI income is intended to offset the expense associated with long-term benefit plan obligations which are also recorded in Operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. COLI income totaled $9.7, $10.5 and $0.8 in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(1)As of February 28, 2025, our senior notes due in 2029 have a principal balance of $450.0 and remaining unamortized bond discount and debt issuance costs of $2.9, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the notes.
Senior Notes
In 2019, we issued $450.0 of unsecured unsubordinated senior notes, due in January 2029 (“2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes would rank equally with any other unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness, and they contain no financial covenants. The 2029 Notes were issued at 99.213% of par value. The bond discount of $3.5 and direct debt issuance costs of $4.0 were deferred and are being amortized over the life of the 2029 Notes. Although the coupon rate of the 2029 Notes is 5.125%, the effective interest rate is 5.6% after taking into account the impact of the direct debt issuance costs, a deferred loss on an interest rate lock related to the debt issuance and the bond discount. Amortization expense related to the discount and debt issuance costs on the 2029 Notes was $0.8 in 2025 and 2024.
We may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes at any time. The redemption price would equal the greater of: (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed or (2) the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the comparable U.S. Treasury rate plus 40 basis points; plus, in both cases, accrued and unpaid interest. If the notes are redeemed within 3 months of maturity, the redemption price would be equal to the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Global Committed Bank Facility
We have a $300.0 global committed bank facility, which expires in 2029. At our option, and subject to certain conditions, we may increase the aggregate commitment under the facility by up to $150.0 by obtaining at least one commitment from one of the lenders. We can use borrowings under the facility for general corporate purposes, including friendly acquisitions. Interest on borrowings is based on the rate, as selected by us from the following options (with all capitalized terms having the meanings provided in the credit agreement):
the Applicable Floating Rate Margin in effect, plus the greatest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the NYFRB plus 0.5%, (iii) the Term SOFR Rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.10% or (iv) 1.00%;
the Applicable Term Benchmark/RFR Margin in effect plus (i) for borrowings in U.S. dollars, the Term SOFR Rate plus 0.10%, or (ii) for borrowings in euros, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate; or
in limited circumstances, the Applicable Term Benchmark/RFR Margin in effect plus the Daily Simple SOFR Rate plus 0.10%.
The facility requires us to satisfy two financial covenants as defined in the credit agreement:
A maximum net leverage ratio covenant, which is measured by the ratio of (x) Indebtedness less Unrestricted Cash to (y) trailing four fiscal quarter Adjusted EBITDA and is required to be less than 3.5:1. In the context of certain permitted acquisitions, we have the ability, subject to certain conditions, to increase the maximum ratio to 4.0:1 for four consecutive quarters.
A minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, which is measured by the ratio of (y) trailing four quarter Adjusted EBITDA to (z) trailing four quarter Interest Expense and is required to be no less than 3.0:1.
The facility does not include any restrictions on cash dividend payments or share repurchases.
Our subsidiary Smith System Manufacturing Company guarantees all obligations under the facility, and we have pledged 65% of the voting interests in our subsidiary Steelcase Holding SAS to secure all obligations under the facility.
As of February 28, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility, our ability to borrow under the facility was not limited, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility. As of February 23, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility, there were $0.1 in letters of credit reducing our availability and we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility.
Other Credit Facilities
As of February 28, 2025, we have unsecured uncommitted short-term credit facilities with various financial institutions with up to $4.0 of U.S. dollar obligations and up to $19.7 of foreign currency obligations available for working capital purposes. Interest rates are variable and determined at the time of borrowing. These credit facilities may be changed or canceled by the banks at any time. There were no borrowings on these facilities as of February 28, 2025 or February 23, 2024.

Defined Contribution Retirement Plans
Substantially all of our U.S. employees are eligible to participate in defined contribution retirement plans, primarily the Steelcase Inc. Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”). Company contributions, including discretionary profit sharing and 401(k) matching contributions, and employee 401(k) contributions fund the Retirement Plan. All contributions are made to a trust which is held for the sole benefit of participants.
Total expense under all defined contribution retirement plans was $44.6 for 2025, $38.4 for 2024 and $26.1 for 2023. We expect to fund approximately $46.4 related to our defined contribution plans in 2026, including funding related to our 2025 discretionary profit sharing contributions.
Post-Retirement Medical Benefits
We maintain post-retirement benefit plans that provide medical and life insurance benefits to certain North American-based retirees and eligible dependents. The plans were frozen to new participants in 2003. We accrue the cost of post-retirement benefits during the service periods of employees based on actuarial calculations for each plan. These plans are unfunded. Our investments in COLI policies are intended to be utilized as a long-term funding source for these benefit obligations. See Note 10 for additional information.
Defined Benefit Pension Plans
Our defined benefit pension plans include various qualified foreign retirement plans as well as domestic non-qualified supplemental retirement plans that are limited to a select group of management approved by the Compensation Committee. The benefit plan obligations for the non-qualified supplemental retirement plans are primarily related to the Steelcase Inc. Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan. This plan, which is unfunded, was frozen to new participants in 2016, and the benefits were capped for existing participants. In 2023, we entered into a contract with an insurer to annuitize our U.K. defined benefit pension plan, covering 100% of the membership in the plan. This agreement resulted in an exchange of plan assets for an annuity that covers our future projected benefit obligations. In 2025, all benefit obligations to the plan's participants were irrevocably transferred, which resulted in the accelerated recognition of actuarial losses from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans (excluding our investments in COLI policies) is as follows:

The measurement dates for our retiree benefit plans are consistent with our fiscal year end. Accordingly, we select discount rates to measure our benefit obligations that are consistent with market indices at the end of each year. In evaluating the expected return on plan assets, we consider the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets based on the specific allocation of assets for each plan, an analysis of current market conditions and the views of leading financial advisors and economists, as applicable.
The assumed healthcare cost trend was 7.22% for pre-age 65 retirees as of February 28, 2025, gradually declining to 4.50% after eight years. As of February 23, 2024, the assumed healthcare cost trend was 6.83% for pre-age 65 retirees, gradually declining to 4.50% after seven years. Post-age 65 trend rates are not applicable as our plan provides a fixed subsidy for post-age 65 benefits.
Plan Assets
In 2023, we entered into a contract with an insurer to annuitize our U.K. defined benefit pension plan, covering 100% of the membership in the plan. This agreement, or "buy-in", resulted in an exchange of plan assets for an annuity that covered our future projected benefit obligations. The initial value of the asset associated with this contract was equal to the premium paid to the insurer to secure the insurance policy. The value of the asset was adjusted each reporting period for changes in financial assumptions, such as discount rates and inflation indices. The asset represented a Level 3 measurement as there were no observable inputs with the valuation of the contract.
In 2025, all benefit obligations to the plan's participants were irrevocably transferred, which resulted in the accelerated recognition of actuarial losses from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We recorded a $15.2 non-cash pension settlement charge in Other income (expense), net and a $3.4 discrete tax benefit in Income tax expense. As of February 28, 2025, the plan assets comprise of cash only, which represents a Level 1 measurement.

Multi-Employer Pension Plan
One of our subsidiaries, SC Transport Inc., previously contributed to the Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund (the "Fund"), a multi-employer pension plan, based on obligations arising under a collective bargaining agreement that covered SC Transport Inc. employees and retirees. Under current law, an employer that withdraws or partially withdraws from a multi-employer pension plan may incur a withdrawal liability to the plan, which represents the portion of the plan’s underfunding that is allocable to the withdrawing employer under very complex actuarial and allocation rules. 
In 2019, the Fund asserted that SC Transport Inc.'s absence of hiring additional union employees over the past ten years constituted an adverse selection practice under the Fund and, if not remedied, would result in an assessment of a withdrawal liability. As a result of the Fund's assertion, SC Transport Inc. recorded an $11.2 charge related to its estimated future obligations under a withdrawal from the Fund to be paid out in installments over a period of up to 20 years. The withdrawal liability was discounted using a rate of 3.5%. The balance of the liability as of February 28, 2025 was $8.7.
In 2020, SC Transport Inc. withdrew from the Fund, and the Fund issued a final assessment of our withdrawal liability. We appealed the amount of the assessment by the Fund. In 2024, we prevailed in arbitration on our claim, and the Fund appealed the arbitrator’s decision. The amount that may ultimately be required to settle any potential obligation may be lower or higher than our estimated liability, which we will adjust if needed, if and when additional information becomes available.
Deferred Compensation Programs
We maintain four deferred compensation programs. The first deferred compensation program is closed to new entrants. In this program, certain employees elected to defer a portion of their compensation in return for a fixed benefit to be paid in installments beginning when the participant reaches age 70. Under the second plan, certain employees may elect to defer a portion of their compensation. The third plan is intended to restore retirement benefits that would otherwise be paid under the Retirement Plan but are precluded as a result of the limitations on eligible compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17). Under the fourth plan, our non-employee directors may elect to defer all or a portion of their board retainer and committee fees. The deferred amounts in the last three plans earn a return based on the investment option selected. These deferred compensation obligations are unfunded.
Deferred compensation expense (gain), which represents annual participant earnings on amounts that have been deferred, and expense (gains) related to restoration retirement benefits, were $5.5 for 2025, $7.7 for 2024 and $(2.9) for 2023.

Terms of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock
The holders of common stock are generally entitled to vote as a single class on all matters upon which shareholders have a right to vote, subject to the requirements of applicable laws and the rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock to vote as a separate class. Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote, and each share of Class B Common Stock entitles its holder to 10 votes. Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into a share of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (i) at the option of the holder at any time, (ii) upon transfer to a person or entity which is not a Permitted Transferee (as defined in our Second Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended), (iii) with respect to shares of Class B Common Stock acquired after February 20, 1998, at such time as a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or charitable organization holding such shares ceases to be controlled or owned 100% by Permitted Transferees and (iv) on the date on which the number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding is less than 15% of all of the then outstanding shares of common stock (calculated without regard to voting rights).
Except for the voting and conversion features described above, the terms of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are generally similar. That is, the holders are entitled to equal dividends when declared by our Board of Directors and generally will receive the same per share consideration in the event of a merger and be treated on an equal per share basis in the event of a liquidation or winding up of Steelcase Inc. In addition, we are not entitled to issue additional shares of Class B Common Stock, or issue options, rights or warrants to subscribe for additional shares of Class B Common Stock, except that we may make a pro rata offer to all holders of common stock of rights to purchase additional shares of the class of common stock held by them, and any dividend payable in common stock will be paid in the form of Class A Common Stock to Class A holders and Class B Common Stock to Class B holders. Neither class of stock may be split, divided or combined unless the other class is proportionally split, divided or combined.
Preferred Stock
Our Second Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize our Board of Directors, without any vote or action by our shareholders, to create one or more series of preferred stock up to the limit of our authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock and to fix the designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including the voting rights, dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series.

(1)In 2025, we qualified for the U.S. FDII deduction due to increased foreign source sales recognized for tax purposes, which resulted in a temporary book-to-tax difference.
As of February 28, 2025, the valuation allowances of $10.8 related to foreign deferred tax assets. In updating our assessment of the realizability of deferred tax assets, we considered the following factors:
recent financial performance, including cumulative losses where applicable,
the predictability of future income during the relevant carryforward period,
prudent and feasible tax planning strategies that could be implemented to utilize the deferred tax assets and
the effect of reversing taxable temporary differences.
Based on our evaluation of these factors, particularly cumulative losses, we were unable to assert that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets related to a manufacturing facility in China and sales offices in Australia, China, Hong Kong, Mexico and Morocco would be realized as of February 28, 2025.
We have the ability to repatriate foreign subsidiary earnings to our U.S. parent without incurring additional U.S. federal income tax beyond foreign currency exchange impacts. We have recorded deferred income taxes related to withholding and other taxes where appropriate on earnings of subsidiaries not expected to be permanently reinvested. However, we have not recorded deferred taxes on any remaining historical outside basis differences in non-U.S. subsidiaries, as we continue to assert indefinite reinvestment of those basis differences.

Future tax benefits for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are recognized to the extent that realization of these benefits is considered more likely than not. It is considered more likely than not that a benefit of $35.9 will be realized on these net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. This determination is based on the expectation that related operations will be sufficiently profitable or various tax, business and other planning strategies available to us will enable utilization of the carryforwards. We assess the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances are recorded to the extent realization of these carryforwards is not more likely than not.
Uncertain Tax Positions
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitation. Tax years that remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions include: the U.S. 2024 and 2025, Canada 2021 through 2025, France 2020 through 2025 and Germany 2015 through 2025. We adjust these reserves, as well as the related interest and penalties, in light of changing facts and circumstances.
We are audited by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service under the Compliance Assurance Process (“CAP”). Under CAP, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service works with large business taxpayers to identify and resolve issues prior to the filing of a tax return. Accordingly, we record minimal liabilities for U.S. federal uncertain tax positions.
We recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions in income tax expense, and these amounts were not material in 2025, 2024 or 2023.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

We have taken tax positions in a non-U.S. jurisdiction that do not meet the more likely than not test required under the uncertain tax position accounting guidance. Since the tax positions have increased net operating loss carryforwards, the underlying deferred tax asset is shown net of a $2.2 liability for uncertain tax positions as of February 28, 2025. No other material amounts are recorded as a liability for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Unrecognized tax benefits of $2.2, if favorably resolved, would be recorded as an income tax benefit. We do not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change due to expiring statutes or audit activity in the next twelve months.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Share-Based Compensation SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the issuance of share-based compensation awards to employees and members of our Board of Directors. As of February 28, 2025, there were 5,526,211 shares of Class A Common Stock authorized for future issuance under the Incentive Compensation Plan.
A variety of awards may be granted under the Incentive Compensation Plan, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, cash-based awards, phantom shares and other share-based awards. Our Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Incentive Compensation Plan at its discretion subject to certain provisions as stipulated within the plan.
In the event of a "change in control", as defined in the Incentive Compensation Plan,
any performance-based conditions imposed on outstanding awards will be deemed to be, immediately prior to the change in control, the greater of (1) the applicable performance achieved through the date of the change in control or (2) the target level of performance; and
all restrictions imposed on all outstanding awards of restricted stock units and performance units will lapse if either (1) the awards are assumed by an acquirer or successor and the awardee experiences a qualifying termination during the two-year period following the change in control or (2) the awards are not assumed by an acquirer or successor.
Share-based awards outstanding under the Incentive Compensation Plan as of February 28, 2025 are as follows:
Total Outstanding AwardsFebruary 28,
2025
Performance units (1)2,104,516 
Restricted stock units3,048,957 
Total outstanding awards5,153,473 
________________________
(1)This amount represents the maximum number of shares that may be issued under outstanding performance unit awards; however, the actual number of shares which may be issued will be determined based on the satisfaction of certain conditions, and therefore may be significantly lower.
Performance Units
In 2025, we issued 465,300 performance units ("PSUs") to certain employees, which are earned over the period of 2025 through 2027 (the "2025 PSUs"). Of these PSUs, 372,240 are earned based on performance conditions, and 93,060 are earned based on a market condition. The performance conditions and market condition for these PSUs were established by the Compensation Committee in 2025, and thus the 2025 PSUs were considered granted in 2025.
In 2024 and 2023, we issued PSUs to certain employees which are earned over a three-year performance period based on performance conditions established annually by the Compensation Committee within the first three months of the applicable fiscal year, as follows:
767,600 PSUs to be earned over the period of 2024 through 2026 (the "2024 PSUs") and
428,700 PSUs to be earned over the period of 2023 through 2025 (the "2023 PSUs").
The number of PSUs earned under the 2024 PSUs and the 2023 PSUs are modified based on a market condition. When the performance conditions for a fiscal year are established for these PSUs, one-third of the PSUs issued are considered granted. Therefore, each of the three fiscal years within the performance period is considered an individual tranche of the award (referred to as "Tranche 1," "Tranche 2" and "Tranche 3," respectively). As of February 28, 2025, the 2024 PSUs and 2023 PSUs were considered granted as follows:
In 2025, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 2 of the 2024 PSUs and Tranche 3 of the 2023 PSUs, and accordingly, such tranches were considered granted in 2025.
In 2024, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2024 PSUs and Tranche 2 of the 2023 PSUs, and accordingly, such tranches were considered granted in 2024.
In 2023, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2023 PSUs, and accordingly, such tranche was considered granted in 2023.
Once granted, the PSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets over the remaining performance period. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the performance period, the PSUs are expensed over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible. The awards will be forfeited if a participant leaves the company for reasons other than retirement, disability or death or if the participant engages in any competition with us, as defined in the Incentive Compensation Plan.
The expense for PSUs is determined as follows:
For PSUs earned based on performance conditions only, the expense is determined based on the probability that the performance conditions will be met and the grant date fair value. The fair value is equal to the closing price of shares of our Class A Common Stock on the grant date.
For PSUs earned based on a market condition only, the expense is determined based on the grant date fair value of the market condition. The fair value is calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation model.
For PSUs earned based on performance conditions and modified based on a market condition, the expense is determined based on the probability that the performance conditions will be met and the grant date fair value of the market condition. The fair value is calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation model.
The Monte Carlo simulation model used the following assumptions:

After completion of the performance period, the number of PSUs earned will be issued as shares of Class A Common Stock. Based on actual results, the 2023 PSUs were earned at 112.1% of the target level, as modified, and 456,578 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued to participants under such awards. The aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock that ultimately may be issued under PSUs that have been granted where the performance period has not been completed ranged from 0 to 2,104,516 shares as of February 28, 2025.
A dividend equivalent is calculated based on the actual number of PSUs earned at the end of the performance period equal to the dividends that would have been payable on the earned PSUs had they been held during the entire performance period as Class A Common Stock. At the end of the performance period, the dividend equivalents are paid in the form of cash.

As of February 28, 2025, there was $4.1 of remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested PSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 1.7 years.
The total fair value of PSUs vested during 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $4.8, $4.9 and $2.1, respectively. The fair value was determined based upon the closing price of shares of our Class A Common Stock on the date that the Compensation Committee certified the awards.
Restricted Stock Units
During 2025, we awarded 1,186,304 restricted stock units ("RSUs") to certain employees. RSUs have restrictions on transfer which lapse up to three years after the date of grant, at which time RSUs are issued as unrestricted shares of Class A Common Stock. RSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheets over the requisite service period based on the value of the shares on the grant date. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the service period for awards that are considered retirement-eligible, the RSUs are expensed over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible. Typically, these awards will be forfeited if a participant leaves the company for reasons other than retirement, disability or death or if the participant engages in any competition with us, as defined in the Incentive Compensation Plan.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]  
Acquisitions ACQUISITIONS
HALCON
In 2023, we acquired HALCON, a Minnesota-based designer and manufacturer of precision-tailored wood furniture for the workplace. The transaction included the purchase of all the outstanding membership interests of HALCON for $127.5 less customer deposits of $24.3, plus an adjustment of $1.9 for working capital. The acquisition was funded using a combination of cash on-hand and borrowings under our global committed bank facility. An additional amount of $2.0 is also payable to a seller based upon continued employment over a three-year period, which is being expensed over the service period on a straight-line basis.
Tangible assets and liabilities of HALCON were valued as of the acquisition date using a market analysis, and intangible assets were valued using a discounted cash flow analysis, which represents a Level 3 measurement. On the acquisition date, we recorded $51.8 related to identifiable intangible assets, $36.6 related to goodwill and $16.7 related to tangible assets. The tangible assets mainly consisted of property, plant and equipment of $30.6, working capital (primarily inventory of $12.8) and customer deposits of $24.3. The goodwill was recorded in the Americas segment and is deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition is primarily related to the growth potential of HALCON expected to be driven by new product development, geographic expansion and the integration of HALCON products into our dealer network. Intangible assets are principally related to dealer relationships, the HALCON trademark and internally developed know-how and designs, which are being amortized over periods ranging from 9 to 10 years from the date of acquisition. We also acquired a backlog of orders which shipped throughout 2023. The purchase price allocation for the HALCON acquisition was completed during 2024.
The following table summarizes the purchased identified intangible assets and the respective fair value and useful life of each asset at the date of acquisition:

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Reportable Segments REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
The operating segments regularly reviewed by our Chief Executive Officer in the capacity of CODM are (1) the Americas, (2) Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and (3) Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific serves customers in Australia, China, India, Japan, Korea and other countries in Southeast Asia. Our CODM compares budget to actual results and year-over-year variances for revenue, gross profit and operating income (loss) to evaluate the performance of the segments and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. Total assets by segment include manufacturing and other assets associated with each segment.
For purposes of segment reporting externally, we have aggregated the EMEA and Asia Pacific operating segments as an International segment based upon their similarity in quantitative and qualitative characteristics as defined in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting. We evaluated the economic similarity of these operating segments including patterns and trends for revenue, gross profit and operating income (loss) in addition to the similarity in the nature of products and services, types of customers, and production and distribution processes in these regions. We concluded that these operating segments met the criteria for aggregation consistent with the basic principles and objectives of segment reporting described in ASC 280.
The Americas segment serves customers in the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean Islands and Latin America with a comprehensive portfolio of furniture, interior architectural, textile and surface imaging products that are marketed to corporate, government, education, healthcare and retail customers primarily through the Steelcase, AMQ, Coalesse, Designtex, HALCON, Orangebox, Smith System and Viccarbe brands.

In Q3 2025, we initiated restructuring actions in response to a continued decline in order volume in Orangebox. These actions involve the voluntary and involuntary terminations of approximately 30 salaried roles in Orangebox. We expect to incur total restructuring costs of approximately $1 in the International segment related to these actions, consisting of cash severance payments and other separation-related benefits. We incurred $1 of restructuring costs for these actions in 2025. These actions are substantially complete.
In Q3 2025, we initiated restructuring actions to enhance our long-term operational effectiveness in Asia Pacific. These actions involve the involuntary terminations of approximately 70 positions in Asia Pacific. We incurred $0.8 of restructuring costs in the International segment for these actions during 2025, consisting of cash severance payments and other separation-related benefits. These restructuring actions are complete.
In Q1 2025, we initiated restructuring actions to close a regional distribution center in EMEA. These actions involve the involuntary terminations of approximately 20 positions.

We incurred $3 of restructuring costs for these actions in 2025. These actions are substantially complete.
In Q4 2024, we initiated restructuring actions to move a regional distribution center in the Americas segment. These actions involved the involuntary terminations of approximately 55 positions and the relocation of approximately 15 positions. We incurred $3.0 and $0.7 of restructuring costs during 2025 and 2024, respectively, for these actions consisting of cash severance payments, other separation-related benefits, and other related costs. These restructuring actions are complete.
In Q4 2024, we initiated a series of restructuring actions to enhance our long-term operational effectiveness in Asia Pacific. These actions involve the involuntary terminations of approximately 100 positions in Asia Pacific. We expect to incur total restructuring costs of approximately $4 in the International segment related to these actions, consisting of cash severance payments, other separation-related benefits, and other related costs. We incurred $0.8 of restructuring costs for these actions in 2025. We previously recorded $2.5 related to employee termination costs and $0.4 related to the impairment of a right-of-use operating lease asset for these actions during 2024. These actions are substantially complete.
In Q3 2024, we initiated a series of restructuring actions to reallocate production of our product portfolio across our industrial footprint to take advantage of manufacturing centers of excellence. These actions involved the involuntary terminations of approximately 15 positions in the Americas segment. We incurred $0.2 and $1.1 of restructuring costs in the Americas segment for these actions during 2025 and 2024, respectively, consisting of cash severance payments, other separation-related benefits, and other related costs. These restructuring actions are complete.
In Q1 2024, we announced a series of restructuring actions in response to continued decline in order volume, persisting inflationary pressures, and decreasing plant utilization. These actions involved the involuntary terminations of approximately 40 to 50 salaried roles in EMEA, the elimination of approximately 240 positions in Asia Pacific, and the involuntary terminations of approximately 30 employees in the Americas in connection with the closing of our regional distribution center in Atlanta, Georgia. We expect to incur total restructuring costs of approximately $16 to $18 in the International segment and approximately $1 in the Americas segment related to these actions, consisting of cash severance payments and other separation-related benefits. We recorded a net benefit of $0.8 in the International segment in 2025 due to a reduction in the expected costs for employee exits. We previously incurred restructuring costs of $16.3 in the International segment and $0.5 in the Americas segment for these actions during 2024. These actions are substantially complete.

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]
Risk Management and Strategy
We use a combination of people, processes, and technologies to monitor and mitigate cybersecurity threats, which include end-point monitoring, vulnerability assessments and penetration testing. We leverage a variety of cybersecurity services, tools and techniques designed to identify and assess cybersecurity threats and take preemptive action to reduce and, where possible, eliminate the potential impacts.
Our cybersecurity processes are based on the cybersecurity standards set by the Center for Internet Security and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”). We regularly engage outside assessors and consultants to identify potential cybersecurity risks and suggest best practices.
Our efforts to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our systems and data, maintain regulatory compliance and manage our risk from cybersecurity threats include:
maintaining a Security Operations Center to monitor and investigate activity that may be suspicious,
staffing and managing a cybersecurity team to safeguard systems and applications,
routinely auditing the security of critical information technology systems and services, and
conducting regular training and simulations for all employees and contractors with access to our systems to enhance awareness and responsiveness to possible threats.
We maintain a Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan, based on NIST’s incident handling framework, to guide our response to cybersecurity threats. The plan includes procedures to triage, assess severity and remediate events in our information technology infrastructure. Annually, we engage third-party experts to conduct penetration testing inside our network.
For data and information that is maintained for us outside our network, we conduct security and privacy assessments of vendors who hold sensitive data and manage critical platforms. We maintain written agreements that govern third-party access to our network and protection of our information, and we conduct annual reviews of appropriate access. We require our suppliers to agree to our Supplier Code of Conduct which includes cybersecurity requirements. We include the assessment of cybersecurity risk as part of our overall enterprise risk management strategy. 
Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors under the heading "We rely on the integrity and security of our information technology systems, and our business could be materially adversely impacted by extended disruptions, significant security breaches or other compromises of these systems" for further information on the risks we face from cybersecurity threats. We believe that to date, such risks have not materially affected and are not reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.

Feb. 28, 2025
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries. We consolidate entities in which we maintain a controlling interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. We also consolidate variable interest entities when appropriate.
Investments in entities where our equity ownership falls between 20% and 50%, or where we otherwise have significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All other investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. These investments are reported as Investments in unconsolidated affiliates on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and income (losses) from equity method investments and any adjustments to cost method investments are reported in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 12 for additional information.
Fiscal Period, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Fiscal Year
Our fiscal year ends on the last Friday in February, with each fiscal quarter typically including 13 weeks. The fiscal year ended February 28, 2025 contained 53 weeks, with Q4 2025 containing 14 weeks. The fiscal years ended February 23, 2024 and February 24, 2023 contained 52 weeks. Reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than the calendar year, unless indicated by a month or specific date reference. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on historical data and management’s knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include demand bank deposits and highly liquid investment securities with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash equivalents are reported at cost and approximate fair value. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are classified as Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our restricted cash balance as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024 was $7.5 and $7.3, respectively, and consisted primarily of funds held in escrow for potential future workers’ compensation and product liability claims. Our restricted cash balance is classified in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Receivable [Policy Text Block]
Allowances for Credit Losses
Allowances for credit losses related to accounts receivable and notes receivable are maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to absorb an estimate of probable future losses existing at the balance sheet date. In estimating probable losses, we review accounts that are past due or in bankruptcy. We consider an accounts receivable or notes receivable balance past due when payment is not received within the stated terms. We review accounts that may have higher credit risk using information available about the debtor, such as financial statements, news reports and published credit ratings. We also use general information regarding industry trends, the economic environment and information gathered through our network of field-based employees. Using an estimate of current fair market value of any applicable collateral and other credit enhancements, such as third party guarantees, we arrive at an estimated loss for specific concerns and estimate an additional amount for the remainder of trade balances based on historical trends and other factors previously referenced. Receivable balances are written off when we determine the balance is uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to bad debt expense when received.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Our trade receivables are due from independent dealers as well as direct customers. We monitor and manage the credit risk associated with individual dealers and direct customers. Dealers are responsible for assessing and assuming credit risk of their customers and may require their customers to provide deposits, letters of credit or other credit enhancement measures. Some sales contracts are structured such that the customer payment or obligation is direct to us. In those cases, we typically assume the credit risk. Whether from dealers or direct customers, our trade credit exposures are not concentrated with any particular entity or industry.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Americas segment primarily uses the last in, first out (“LIFO”) and the first in, first out ("FIFO") methods to value its inventories. The International segment values inventories primarily using FIFO. See Note 8 for additional information.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements that materially extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. See Note 9 for additional information.
Long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment when conditions indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We evaluate several conditions, including, but not limited to, the following: a significant decrease in the market price of an asset or an asset group; a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used, including an extended period of idleness; and a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. We review the carrying value of our held and used long-lived assets utilizing estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its estimated fair value.
When assets are classified as “held for sale,” losses are recorded for the difference between the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment and the estimated fair value less estimated selling costs. Assets are considered “held for sale” when there is an active program to locate a buyer, and the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and is expected to be sold within twelve months.
Cloud Computing Arrangements
Cloud Computing Arrangements
We capitalize implementation costs of a cloud computing arrangement with a useful life greater than one year consistent with the capitalization criteria used for internal-use software. Costs incurred during the application-development phase, subject to certain exceptions, are capitalized after the preliminary project phase is completed and management commits to funding the project. Capitalized costs include fees paid to consultants to implement the software, payroll and payroll-related costs of employees to the extent of the time spent directly on the project and interest costs, if appropriate. Capitalized costs are recorded to Prepaid expenses and Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and within Net cash provided by operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Capitalization of costs ceases at the point when the software associated with the cloud computing arrangement is ready for its intended use. Subsequent enhancements or upgrades are capitalized only to the extent that they add significant new functionality, and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Amortization of capitalized costs is recorded over the initial term of the related cloud computing arrangement, including renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised.
In Q3 2024, we entered the application-development phase of a multi-year, phased implementation of a new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system which is expected to replace our current ERP system and various other supporting systems for operating and financial processes. As of February 28, 2025, we have capitalized $59.1 of costs related to development activities incurred in the implementation of the new ERP system. Capitalized costs associated with other cloud computing arrangements were immaterial as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the related underlying tangible and identifiable intangible net asset fair values resulting from business acquisitions. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually in Q4, or earlier if conditions indicate there may be potential for impairment, such as significant adverse changes in business climate or operating results, changes in our strategy, significant declines in our stock price or other triggering events. Goodwill is assigned to and the fair value is tested at the reporting unit level. We compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the difference is recorded as an impairment charge. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using the income approach, which calculates the fair value of each reporting unit based on the present value of its estimated future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, taking into consideration industry and market conditions. The discount rates used are based on the estimated weighted-average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business-specific characteristics and the uncertainty related to the reporting units' ability to execute on the projected cash flows. We corroborate the results determined using the income approach with a market-based approach that uses observable and comparable company information to support the appropriateness of the fair value estimates. The estimation of the fair value of our reporting units represents a Level 3 measurement.
In 2025 and 2024, we evaluated goodwill and intangible assets using nine reporting units: the Americas, EMEA, Asia Pacific, Designtex, AMQ, Smith System, Orangebox U.K., Viccarbe and HALCON. See Note 11 for additional information.
Other intangible assets subject to amortization consist primarily of dealer relationships, trademarks, know-how/designs and proprietary technology and are amortized over their estimated useful economic lives using the straight-line method. Other intangible assets not subject to amortization are accounted for and evaluated for potential impairment using an income approach based on the cash flows attributable to the related products. See Note 11 for additional information.
Supplier Finance Program
Supplier Finance Program
We participate in a supplier finance program in Spain offered by a third-party financial institution. The program allows participating suppliers the ability to finance our payment obligations prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price set by the financial institution. We have extended payment terms with suppliers that have voluntarily chosen to participate in the program. The outstanding amount of program obligations is reported in Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Below is a roll-forward of the supplier finance program obligations during 2025:

Balance as of end of period$0.6 $0.1 
Commitments and Contingencies, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Contingencies
Loss contingencies are accrued if the loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with potential loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Based on known information, we do not believe we are party to any lawsuit or proceeding, individually and in the aggregate, that is likely to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Self Insurance [Policy Text Block]
Self-Insurance
We are self-insured for certain losses relating to domestic workers’ compensation and product liability claims. We purchase insurance coverage to reduce our exposure to significant levels of uncertainty for these claims. Self-insured losses are accrued based upon estimates of the aggregate liability for uninsured claims incurred as of the balance sheet date using current and historical claims experience and actuarial assumptions. These estimates are subject to uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including extended lag times in the reporting and resolution of claims, trends or changes in claim settlement patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations. As a result, actual costs could differ from the estimated amounts. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.
Standard Product Warranty, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Product Warranties
We offer warranties ranging from three years to lifetime for most of our products, subject to certain exceptions. These warranties provide for the free repair or replacement of any covered product, part or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in materials or workmanship. The accrued liability for product warranties is based on an estimated amount needed to cover product warranty costs, including product recall and retrofit costs, incurred as of the balance sheet date.
We use an actuarial model to estimate our product warranty liability using actual paid claims over at least ten years and other actuarial assumptions, which provide a basis for expected future losses using actuarial assumptions.
These estimates are subject to uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including changes in claim rates and patterns. As a result, actual costs could differ significantly from the estimated amounts. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. Accruals related to product warranties, recalls, retrofits and changes in claims experience or trends that impact our estimated product warranty liability are recorded to Cost of sales.

Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits
We sponsor a number of domestic and foreign plans to provide pension benefits and medical and life insurance benefits to retired employees. We measure the net over-funded or under-funded positions of our defined benefit pension plans and post-retirement benefit plans as of the end of each fiscal year and display that position as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any unrecognized prior service credit (cost) or actuarial gains (losses) are reported, net of tax, as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. See Note 14 for additional information.
Environmental Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Environmental Matters
Environmental expenditures related to current operations are expensed as incurred. Expenditures related to an existing condition allegedly caused by past operations, and not associated with current or future revenue generation, are typically recognized upon completion of a feasibility study or our commitment to a formal plan of action. Liabilities are recorded on a discounted basis when site-specific plans indicate the amount and timing of cash payments which are fixed and reliably determinable. We have ongoing monitoring and identification processes to assess how known exposures are progressing against the accrued cost estimates, as well as processes to identify other potential exposures.

Current - Other current liabilities
$1.8 $0.6 
Long-term - Other long-term liabilities

Total environmental contingencies (discounted)$4.9 $2.9 
As of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, environmental liabilities were discounted using a rate of 3.5% when the amount and timing of cash payments are fixed and reliably determinable, and our undiscounted liabilities were $4.9 and $3.1, respectively. Based on our ongoing evaluation of these matters, we believe we have accrued sufficient reserves to cover the costs of all known environmental assessments and the remediation costs of all known sites.
Asset Retirement Obligation [Policy Text Block]
Asset Retirement Obligations
We record all known asset retirement obligations for which the liability’s fair value can be reasonably estimated. We also have known conditional asset retirement obligations that are not reasonably estimable due to insufficient information about the timing and method of settlement of the obligation. Accordingly, these obligations have not been recorded in the consolidated financial statements. A liability for these obligations will be recorded in the period when sufficient information regarding timing and method of settlement becomes available to make a reasonable estimate of the liability’s fair value. In addition, there may be conditional asset retirement obligations we have not yet discovered, and therefore, these obligations also have not been included in the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue [Policy Text Block]
Revenue Recognition
Our revenue consists substantially of product sales and related service revenue. Product sales are reported net of discounts and are recognized when control, consisting of the rights and obligations associated with the sale, passes to the purchaser. For sales to our dealers, this typically occurs when product is shipped from our manufacturing or distribution facilities. In cases where we sell directly to customers, control is typically transferred upon delivery to the customer and, in some cases, following installation and acceptance by the customer. Service revenue is recognized when the services have been rendered. We account for shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities even if those activities are performed after the control of the product has been transferred. We expense shipping and handling costs at the time revenue is recognized. Revenue does not include sales tax or any other taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are imposed on and concurrent with a specific sale, such as use, excise, value-added and franchise taxes (collectively referred to as "consumption taxes"). We consider ourselves a pass-through entity for collecting and remitting these consumption taxes.
Cost of Goods and Service [Policy Text Block]
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes material, labor, freight and overhead incurred directly related to the procurement, manufacturing and delivery of our products. Included within these categories are such items as employee compensation expense, logistics costs (including shipping and handling costs), facilities expense, depreciation, contract labor costs and warranty expense.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses not directly related to the procurement, manufacturing and delivery of our products. Included in these expenses are items such as employee compensation expense, facilities expense, depreciation, research and development expense, royalty expense, information technology services, professional services and travel and entertainment expense.
Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses, which we define as expenses related to the investigative activities we conduct to lead to the development of new products and to improve existing products and procedures, are expensed as incurred and were $50.4 for 2025, $48.2 for 2024 and $44.4 for 2023.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated financial statements and their respective tax bases. These deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the period that includes the enactment date.
We establish valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. All evidence, both positive and negative, is identified and considered in making the determination. Future realization of the existing deferred tax asset depends, in part, on the existence of sufficient taxable income of appropriate character within the carryforward period available under tax law applicable in the jurisdiction in which the related deferred tax assets were generated.
We have net operating loss carryforwards available in certain jurisdictions to reduce future taxable income. Future tax benefits associated with net operating loss carryforwards are recognized to the extent that realization of these benefits is considered more likely than not. This determination is based on the expectation that related operations will be sufficiently profitable or various tax, business and other planning strategies will enable us to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards within the carryforward period. In making this determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence. To the extent that available evidence raises doubt about the realization of a deferred income tax asset, a valuation allowance is established.
We record reserves for uncertain tax positions except to the extent it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Periodic changes in reserves for uncertain tax positions are reflected in the provision for income taxes. See Note 16 for additional information.
Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]
Share-Based Compensation
Our share-based compensation consists of restricted stock units and performance units. Our policy is to expense share-based compensation using the fair-value based method of accounting for all awards granted, modified or settled. Restricted stock units and performance units are credited to shareholders' equity as they are expensed over the related service periods based on the grant date fair value of the shares expected to be issued and the achievement of certain performance conditions, respectively. See Note 17 for additional information.
Lessee, Leases
Leases
We have operating leases for corporate offices, sales offices, showrooms, manufacturing and distribution facilities, vehicles and equipment. We record a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for operating leases with terms greater than one year. Lease terms utilized in determining right-of-use assets and lease liabilities include the noncancellable portion of the underlying leases along with any reasonably certain lease periods associated with available renewal periods. Our leases do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, we use an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate represents the estimated rate of interest we would have had to pay to borrow (on a collateralized basis) an amount equal to the lease payments for a similar period of time.
We do not separate non-lease components of a contract from the lease components to which they relate for all classes of lease assets except for embedded leases, which were immaterial in 2025. See Note 18 for additional information.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, long-term investment, foreign exchange forward contracts and contingent earnout liability are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our total debt is carried at cost and was $447.1 and $446.3 as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $432.8 and $423.0 as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024, respectively. The estimation of the fair value of our total debt is based on Level 2 fair value measurements. See Note 7 and Note 13 for additional information.
We may use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.
We evaluate contractual obligations to transfer additional cash to the sellers of companies we acquire as either a compensation arrangement or contingent consideration. We evaluate these obligations based on the terms and duration of continuing employment of the sellers post-acquisition, the linkage to the underlying valuation of the acquired company and the obligations taken in the context of other contracts or agreements. Compensation arrangements are recorded in Operating expenses as services are rendered post-acquisition. Contingent consideration obligations are recorded at fair value as of the acquisition dates. At each subsequent reporting date, changes in the fair value of the liabilities are recorded to Operating expenses until the liabilities are settled. See Note 7 for additional information.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]
Foreign Currency
For most foreign operations, local currencies are considered the functional currencies. We translate assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries to their U.S. dollar equivalents at exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets unless and until a sale or a substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the international subsidiary takes place. We translate Consolidated Statements of Income accounts at average exchange rates for the applicable period.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, net of derivative impacts, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on foreign currency denominated intercompany loans and other intercompany transactions and balances between foreign locations, are recorded in Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
A portion of our revenue and earnings is exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk largely through operational means, including matching revenues with same currency costs and assets with same currency liabilities. Foreign exchange risk is also partially managed through the use of derivative instruments. Foreign exchange forward contracts serve to reduce the risk of conversion or remeasurement of certain foreign denominated transactions, assets and liabilities. We primarily use derivatives for intercompany transactions (including loans) and certain forecasted currency flows from foreign-denominated transactions. The foreign exchange forward contracts primarily relate to the Mexican peso, the euro, the United Kingdom ("U.K.") pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar, the Malaysian ringgit and the Chinese renminbi. See Note 7 for additional information.
Assets and liabilities related to foreign exchange forward contracts as of February 28, 2025 and February 23, 2024 are summarized below:

(1)The foreign operations, less applicable foreign tax credits, amounts include the rate differential between local statutory rates and the U.S. rate on foreign operations.
(2)In 2024, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to the acquisition of Viccarbe, which is nontaxable. In 2023, we recorded an increase in the fair value of this liability, which is non-deductible for tax purposes.
(3)The valuation allowance provisions and adjustments of our deferred tax assets are based on current year assessments of realizability, which are further detailed below.
(4)The increase in the cash surrender value of COLI policies, net of normal insurance expenses, plus maturity benefits are non-taxable.
(5)In 2025, we qualified for the U.S. FDII deduction due to increased foreign source sales recognized for tax purposes, which resulted in a temporary book-to-tax difference.
(6)Final regulations under IRC Section 987 were enacted in 2025 and resulted in the recognition of a deferred tax asset on the accumulated unrecognized foreign currency exchange losses of foreign branches using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]  
New Accounting Pronouncement or Change in Accounting Principle, Description We evaluate all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for consideration of their applicability to our consolidated financial statements. We have assessed all ASUs issued but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are either not applicable to us or are not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Adoption of New Accounting StandardsIn 2025, we adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve disclosures related to significant segment expenses and the information used by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to assess segment performance and to allocate resources. We adopted this guidance on a retrospective basis, which modified our annual disclosures beginning in 2025 but did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. See Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet AdoptedIn November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement (Subtopic 220-40) - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which is intended to improve disclosures through disaggregation of certain commonly presented expense captions. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, which was clarified in ASU 2025-01. We expect the adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to improve income tax disclosures, specifically related to additional detail required in the effective tax rate reconciliation and the disaggregation of income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We expect the adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

[1] The foreign operations, less applicable foreign tax credits, amounts include the rate differential between local statutory rates and the U.S. rate on foreign operations.
[2] In 2024, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to the acquisition of Viccarbe, which is nontaxable. In 2023, we recorded an increase in the fair value of this liability, which is non-deductible for tax purposes.
[3] The valuation allowance provisions and adjustments of our deferred tax assets are based on current year assessments of realizability, which are further detailed below.
[4] The increase in the cash surrender value of COLI policies, net of normal insurance expenses, plus maturity benefits are non-taxable.
[5] In 2025, we qualified for the U.S. FDII deduction due to increased foreign source sales recognized for tax purposes, which resulted in a temporary book-to-tax difference.
[6] Final regulations under IRC Section 987 were enacted in 2025 and resulted in the recognition of a deferred tax asset on the accumulated unrecognized foreign currency exchange losses of foreign branches using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.
