Description of Business Description of Business
Acushnet Holdings Corp. (the “Company”), headquartered in Fairhaven, Massachusetts, is the global leader in the design, development, manufacture and distribution of performance-driven golf products. The Company has established positions across all major golf equipment and golf wear categories under its globally recognized brands of Titleist, FootJoy, Scotty Cameron and Vokey Design. Acushnet products are sold primarily to on-course golf pro shops and select off-course golf specialty stores, sporting goods stores and other qualified retailers. The Company sells products primarily in the United States, Europe (primarily the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Sweden and Switzerland), Asia (primarily Japan, Korea, China and Singapore), Canada and Australia. Acushnet manufactures and sources its products principally in the United States, China, Thailand, the United Kingdom and Japan.
Acushnet Holdings Corp. was incorporated in Delaware on May 9, 2011 as Alexandria Holdings Corp., an entity owned by Fila Holdings Corp., formerly known as Fila Korea Co., Ltd., (“Fila”), a leading sport and leisure apparel and footwear company which is a public company listed on the Korea Exchange, and a consortium of investors (the “Financial Investors”). Acushnet Holdings Corp. acquired Acushnet Company, its operating subsidiary, from Beam Suntory, Inc. (at the time known as Fortune Brands, Inc.) (“Beam”) on July 29, 2011. On November 2, 2016, the Company completed an initial public offering at a public offering price of $17.00 per share. Following the pricing of the initial public offering, Magnus Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Magnus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fila, purchased from the Financial Investors shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in Magnus holding a controlling ownership interest in the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and less than wholly-owned subsidiaries, including a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the current macroeconomic environment on its estimates and judgements. These impacts continue to evolve, and both the full impact and duration remain highly uncertain. Accordingly, the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows could be materially impacted in ways that the Company cannot currently predict.
Variable Interest Entities
VIEs are entities that, by design, either (i) lack sufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities independently, or (ii) have equity holders that do not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company consolidates a VIE when it is the primary beneficiary, which is the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive expected benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company consolidates the accounts of Acushnet Lionscore Limited, a VIE which is 40% owned by the Company. The sole purpose of the VIE is to manufacture the Company’s golf footwear and as such, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The Company has presented separately on its consolidated balance sheets, to the extent material, the assets of its consolidated VIE that can only be used to settle specific obligations of its consolidated VIE and the liabilities of its consolidated VIE for which creditors do not have recourse to its general credit. The general creditors of the VIE do not have
recourse to the Company. Certain directors of the VIE have guaranteed the credit lines of the VIE, for which there were no outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the VIE, the Company is not required to provide financial support to the VIE.
Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The ownership interests held by owners other than the Company in less than wholly-owned subsidiaries are classified as noncontrolling interests. The financial results and position of noncontrolling interests are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The value attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented on the consolidated balance sheets, separately from the equity attributable to the Company. Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.
On April 1, 2022, the Company acquired the outstanding equity interest in PG Golf LLC for $5.0 million, including cash consideration of $3.6 million and contingent consideration of $1.4 million, which was included in other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
Redeemable noncontrolling interests are those noncontrolling interests which are or may become redeemable at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date, at the option of the holder, or upon occurrence of an event. The Company initially records the redeemable noncontrolling interest at its acquisition date fair value. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is subsequently adjusted to the greater amount of either the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable noncontrolling interest's share of comprehensive income (loss) or the redemption value, assuming the noncontrolling interest is redeemable at the balance sheet date. This adjustment is recognized through retained earnings and is not reflected in net income (loss) or comprehensive income (loss). During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a $1.9 million redemption value adjustment to decrease the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $2.8 million redemption value adjustment to increase the carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests. The value attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests and any related loans to minority shareholders, which are recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interests, are presented in the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity between liabilities and shareholders’ equity. The amount of the loan to minority shareholders was $4.4 million as of both December 31, 2022 and 2021.
See additional discussion regarding the redeemable noncontrolling interest acquired by the Company during the fourth quarter of 2022 in Note 8.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash held in Company checking accounts is included in cash. Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less which are readily convertible into cash. The Company classifies as restricted certain cash that is not available for use in its operations. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the amount of restricted cash included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets was $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Book overdrafts not subject to offset with other accounts with the same financial institution are classified as accounts payable. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, book overdrafts in the amount of $4.4 million and $5.8 million, respectively, were recorded in accounts payable.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Substantially all of the Company's cash deposits are maintained at large, creditworthy financial institutions. The Company's deposits, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. As part of its ongoing procedures, the Company monitors its concentration of deposits with various financial institutions in order to avoid any undue exposure. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $54.9 million and $65.7 million, respectively, in banks located outside the United States. The risk with respect to the Company's accounts receivable is managed by the Company through its policy of monitoring the creditworthiness of its customers to which it grants credit terms in the normal course of business. See Note 5 for additional information.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Approximate cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The inventory balance, which includes material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs, is recorded net of an allowance for obsolete or slow moving inventory. The Company's allowance for obsolete or slow moving inventory contains
estimates regarding uncertainties. Such estimates are updated each reporting period and require the Company to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding a number of factors, including market conditions, selling environment, historical results and current inventory trends. See Note 6 for additional information.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and amortizing intangible assets, are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, respectively. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, except for leasehold and tenant improvements which are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Gains or losses resulting from disposals are included in income from operations. Betterments and renewals, which improve and extend the life of an asset, are capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.
Estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment asset categories were as follows:
Buildings and improvements15-40 years
Machinery and equipment3-10 years
Furniture, fixtures and computer hardware3-10 years
Computer software1-10 years
Certain costs incurred in connection with the development of the Company's internal-use software are capitalized. Internal-use software development costs are primarily related to the Company's enterprise resource planning system. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred in the application development phase, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing performed to ensure the product is ready for its intended use. Costs such as maintenance and training are expensed as incurred. The capitalized internal-use software costs are included in property, plant and equipment and once the software is placed into service are amortized over the estimated useful life which ranges from three to ten years. See Note 7 for additional information.
Impairment
A long-lived asset (including right of use assets) or asset group is tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group to the carrying amount of the asset or asset group. The cash flows are based on the best estimate of future cash flows derived from the most recent business projections. If the carrying value exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the asset's or asset group's carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted expected future cash flows on a market participant basis.
The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance may not be recoverable. These factors may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business plans, or changes in anticipated cash flows.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but instead are measured for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. The Company performs its annual impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.
Goodwill is assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. A reporting unit may be the same as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. For purposes of assessing potential impairment, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is considered not impaired. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company records a goodwill impairment loss in the amount of the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The fair value of the reporting units is determined using the income approach. The income approach uses a discounted cash flow analysis which involves applying appropriate discount rates to estimated future cash flows based on forecasts of sales, costs and capital requirements.
Purchased intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined to be indefinite. Certain of the Company's trademarks have been assigned an indefinite life as the Company currently anticipates that these trademarks will contribute to its cash flows indefinitely. Indefinite-lived trademarks are reviewed for impairment annually and may be reviewed more frequently if indicators of impairment are present. Impairment losses are recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value. The Company measures the fair value of its trademarks using the relief-from-royalty method, which estimates the present value of royalty income that could be hypothetically earned by licensing the brand name to a third party over the remaining useful life. See Note 9 for additional information.
Leases
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company's assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether the Company obtained the right to substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
All leases are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842 and are classified as either operating or finance leases. A lease is classified as a finance lease if any one of the following criteria are met: the lease transfers ownership of the asset by the end of the lease term, the lease contains an option to purchase the asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised, the lease term is for a major part of the remaining useful life of the asset, the present value of the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the asset, or the leased asset is of a highly specialized nature. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not meet any one of these criteria.
The Company recognizes operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the present value of the lease payments under the lease. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: the fixed non-cancelable lease payments, payments for optional renewal periods where it is reasonably certain the renewal period will be exercised, and payments for early termination options unless it is reasonably certain the lease will not be terminated early. The discount rate implicit within the Company's leases is generally not determinable and therefore the Company determines the discount rate based on its incremental collateralized borrowing rate applicable to the location where the lease is held. The incremental borrowing rate for each of the Company's leases is determined based on the lease term and currency in which such lease payments are made.
The lease classification affects the expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. Operating lease expense consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statements of operations. Finance lease charges are split, where amortization of the right-of-use asset is recorded as depreciation expense and an implied interest component is recorded in interest expense, net. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred and include maintenance costs, real estate taxes and property insurance.
The Company has elected to not separate non-lease components within its lease portfolio and has also elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.
Debt Issuance Costs
The Company defers costs directly associated with acquiring third-party financing. These debt issuance costs are amortized as interest expense over the term of the related indebtedness. Debt issuance costs associated with the revolving credit facilities are included in other assets and debt issuance costs associated with all other indebtedness are netted against long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 11 for additional information.
Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.
The Company’s derivative instrument assets and liabilities are carried at fair value determined according to the fair value hierarchy described above (Note 12 and 13). The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The carrying value of the Company's variable interest rate debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rate.
See Note 13 for additional information regarding the Company's fair value measurements.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company provides U.S. and foreign defined benefit and defined contribution plans to certain eligible employees and postretirement benefits to certain retirees, including pensions, postretirement healthcare benefits and other postretirement benefits.
Plan assets and obligations are measured using various actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, rate of compensation increase, mortality rates, turnover rates and health care cost trend rates, as determined at each year end measurement date. The measurement of net periodic benefit cost is based on various actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, expected return on plan assets and rate of compensation increase, which are determined as of the prior year measurement date. The determination of the discount rate is generally based on an index created from a hypothetical bond portfolio consisting of high-quality fixed income securities with durations that match the timing of expected benefit payments. The expected return on plan assets is determined based on several factors, including adjusted historical returns, historical risk premiums for various asset classes and target asset allocations within the portfolio. Adjustments made to the historical returns are based on recent return experience in the equity and fixed income markets and the belief that deviations from historical returns are likely over the relevant investment horizon. Actual cost is also dependent on various other factors related to the employees covered by these plans. The effects of actuarial deviations from assumptions are generally accumulated and, if over a specified corridor, amortized over the remaining service period of the employees. The cost or benefit of plan changes, such as increasing or decreasing benefits for prior employee service (prior service cost), is deferred and included in expense on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of the related employees. The Company's actuarial assumptions are reviewed on an annual basis and modified when appropriate.
To calculate the U.S. pension and postretirement benefit plan expense in 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company applied the individual spot rates along the yield curve that correspond with the timing of each future cash outflow for the benefit payments in order to calculate interest cost and service cost. See Note 14 for additional information.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis amounts at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that such assets will not be realized. Potential for recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies.
The Company records liabilities for uncertain income tax positions based on the two-step process. The first step is recognition, where an individual tax position is evaluated as to whether it has a likelihood of greater than 50% of being sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. For tax positions that are currently estimated to have a less than 50% likelihood of being sustained, no tax benefit is recorded. For tax positions that have met the recognition threshold in the first step, the Company performs the second step of measuring the benefit to be recorded. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized on ultimate settlement. The actual benefits ultimately realized may differ from the estimates. In future periods, changes in facts, circumstances, and new information may require the Company to change the recognition and measurement estimates with regard to individual tax positions. Changes in recognition and measurement estimates are recorded in income tax expense and liability in the period in which such changes occur. The Company recognizes
accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations.
Beam indemnified certain tax obligations that relate to periods during which Fortune Brands, Inc. owned Acushnet Company (Note 22). These estimated tax obligations were recorded in accrued taxes and other noncurrent liabilities, and the related indemnification receivable were recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the value of these specifically identified tax obligations were recorded in the period identified in income tax expense and the related change in the indemnification asset was recorded in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 15 for additional information.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act contains a new law that subjects the Company to a tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), beginning in 2018. GILTI is a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of related foreign corporations. Companies subject to GILTI have the option to account for the GILTI tax as a period cost if and when incurred, or to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences, including outside basis differences, expected to reverse as GILTI. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period cost.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold includes all costs to make products salable, such as inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs and transfer costs. In addition, all depreciation expense associated with assets used to manufacture products and make them salable is included in cost of goods sold.
Product Warranty
The Company has defined warranties generally ranging from one to two years. Products covered by the defined warranty policies primarily include all Titleist golf products, FootJoy golf shoes, and FootJoy golf outerwear. These product warranties generally obligate the Company to pay for the cost of replacement products, including the cost of shipping replacement products to its customers. The estimated cost of satisfying future warranty claims is accrued at the time the sale is recorded. In estimating future warranty obligations, the Company considers various factors, including its warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair products under warranty. See Note 10 for additional information.
Advertising and Promotion
Advertising and promotional costs are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations and include product endorsement arrangements with members of the various professional golf tours, media placement and production costs (television, print and internet), tour support expenses and point-of-sale materials. Advertising production costs are expensed as incurred. Media placement costs are expensed in the month the advertising first appears. Product endorsement arrangements are expensed based upon the specific provisions of player contracts. Advertising and promotional expense was $211.9 million, $216.4 million and $162.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Selling
Selling expenses including field sales, sales administration, shipping and handling costs and commissions paid on certain retail sales are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs included in selling expenses were $56.0 million, $52.4 million and $35.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Research and Development
Research and development is expensed as incurred and includes product development costs, product improvement costs, product engineering costs and process improvement costs.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the actual rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange for the reporting period. The related translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Transactions denominated in a currency other than functional currency are re-measured into functional currency with the resulting transaction gain or loss recorded as selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Foreign currency transaction gain (loss) included in selling, general and administrative expense was a loss of $11.9 million, a loss of $3.4 million and a gain of $3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Derivative Financial Instruments
All derivative instruments are measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. If the derivative instrument is designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss resulting from changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments and of the hedged item are immediately recognized in the statements of operations. If the derivative instrument is designated as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss is initially recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. The gain or loss is subsequently reclassified into the statements of operations at the time the forecasted transaction impacts the statements of operations or at the time the hedge is deemed to be ineffective. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments and the related hedged transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities. See Note 12 for additional information.
Share-based Compensation
The Company has an equity incentive plan for members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company. All awards granted under the plan are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The estimated fair value is determined based on the closing price of the Company's common stock, generally on the award date, multiplied by the number of shares per the stock award. The Company issues share-based awards with service-based vesting conditions and performance-based vesting conditions. Awards with service-based vesting conditions are amortized as expense over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the measurement of the expense is based on the Company’s performance against specified metrics as defined in the applicable award agreements. The Company accounts for forfeitures in share based compensation expense when they occur. See Note 17 for additional information.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Income Taxes
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes". The amendments in this update simplified the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improved consistent application and simplified U.S. GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU's. Management determined that recently issued ASU's are not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Revenue
Accounting Policies
Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied. The majority of the Company's contracts have a single performance obligation to transfer products. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when control of the products has been transferred to the customer, generally at the time of shipment or delivery of products, based on the terms of the contract and the jurisdiction of the sale. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the products. Revenue is recognized net of allowances for discounts and sales returns. Sales taxes and other similar taxes are excluded from revenue.
Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time and relates to customers who are not engaged in a long-term supply agreement or any form of contract with the Company. Substantially all sales are paid for on account with the majority of terms between 30 and 60 days, not to exceed one year.
Costs associated with shipping and handling activities, such as merchandising, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses as revenue is recognized. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the related good transfers as fulfillment activities instead of assessing such activities as performance obligations.
The Company reduces revenue by the amount of expected returns and records a corresponding refund liability in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Company accounts for the right of return as variable consideration and recognizes a refund liability for the amount of consideration that it estimates will be refunded to customers. In addition, the Company recognizes an asset for the right to recover returned products in prepaid and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Sales returns are estimated based upon historical rates of product returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demands as well as specific identification of outstanding returns. The refund liability for expected returns was $11.3 million and $10.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The value of inventory expected to be recovered related to sales returns was $5.0 million and $5.8 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Contract Balances
Accounts receivable, net, includes amounts billed and currently due from customers. The amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for the estimated amount of receivables that will not be collected. The allowance includes amounts for certain customers where a risk of default has been specifically identified as well as a provision for customer defaults when it is determined the risk of some default is probable and estimable, but cannot yet be associated with specific customers. The assessment of the likelihood of customer defaults is based on various factors, including credit risk assessments, length of time the receivables are past due, historical experience, customer specific information available to the Company and current and forecasted economic conditions, all of which are subject to change.
Customer Sales Incentives
The Company offers sales-based incentive programs to certain customers in exchange for certain benefits, including prominent product placement and exclusive stocking by participating retailers. These programs typically provide qualifying customers with rebates for achieving certain purchase goals. The rebates can be settled in the form of cash or credits or in the form of free product. The rebates which are expected to be settled in the form of cash or credits are accounted for as variable consideration. The estimate of the variable consideration requires the use of assumptions related to the percentage of customers who will achieve qualifying purchase goals and the level of achievement. These assumptions are based on historical experience, current year program design, current marketplace conditions and sales forecasts, including considerations of the Company's product life cycles.
The rebates which are expected to be settled in the form of product are estimated based upon historical experience and the terms of the customer programs and are accounted for as an additional performance obligation. Revenue will be recognized when control of the free products earned transfers to the customer at the end of the related customer incentive program, which generally occurs within one year. Control of the free products generally transfers to the customer at the time of shipment.
Practical Expedients and Exemptions
The Company expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period is one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.
Disaggregated Revenue
In general, the Company's business segmentation is aligned according to the nature and economic characteristics of its products and customer relationships and provides meaningful disaggregation of each business segment's results of operations. See Note 21 for the Company's business segment disclosures, as well as a further disaggregation of net sales by geographical area.

Second Amended Credit Facility
On August 2, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment and agency resignation, appointment and assumption (the “Second Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2019 (as subsequently amended on July 3, 2020 (the “First Amended Credit Agreement”), and the First Amended Credit Agreement, as amended pursuant to the Second Amendment (the “Second Amended Credit Agreement”), with Acushnet Company, Acushnet Canada Inc. and Acushnet Europe Limited, as borrowers, certain subsidiaries of Acushnet Company, together with the Company, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as resigning administrative agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as successor administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The Second Amended Credit Agreement, together with related security, guarantee and other agreements, is referred to as the “Second Amended Credit Facility.” The First Amended Credit Agreement, together with related security, guarantee and other agreements, is referred to as the “First Amended Credit Facility.”
The Second Amended Credit Facility provides a $950.0 million multi‑currency revolving credit facility, including a $50.0 million letter of credit sublimit, a $75.0 million swing line sublimit, a C$50.0 million sublimit for borrowings by Acushnet Canada, Inc., a £45.0 million sublimit for borrowings by Acushnet Europe Limited and an alternative currency sublimit of $200.0 million for borrowings in Canadian dollars, euros, pounds sterling, Japanese yen and other currencies agreed to by the lenders and the Administrative Agent. The Second Amended Credit Facility matures on August 2, 2027, and as a result, the related borrowings have been classified as long term debt, with the proceeds and repayments under the revolving credit facility presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Second Amended Credit Facility is collateralized by certain assets, including inventory, accounts receivable, fixed assets and intangible assets of the Company.
On August 2, 2022, borrowings under the Second Amended Credit Facility, were used to prepay in full the outstanding term loans under the First Amended Credit Facility, refinance outstanding revolving credit facility borrowings under the First Amended Credit Facility and pay accrued interest and closing fees. Immediately prior to payment, the aggregate amounts outstanding related to the term loans and revolving credit facility were approximately $306.3 million and $72.6 million, respectively. In connection with amending its credit facility, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $2.6 million, which were included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and will be amortized to interest expense, net over the term of the Second Amended Credit Facility. In addition, the prepayment of the First Amended Credit Facility resulted in additional interest expense of approximately $1.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.
Acushnet Company has the right under the Second Amended Credit Facility to request term loans and/or increases in the revolving commitments in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed (i) the greater of $325.0 million and 100% of the last four quarters' EBITDA plus (ii) an unlimited amount, so long as the Net Average Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement) does not exceed 2.50:1.00 on a pro forma basis. The lenders under the Second Amended Credit Facility will not be under any obligation to provide any such term loans or increases to the revolving commitments, and the incurrence of any term loans or increases to the revolving credit commitments is subject to customary conditions precedent.
Borrowings under the Second Amended Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the applicable Borrower’s option, (i) for loans denominated in U.S. dollars, either (A) a base rate, which is the greatest of (1) the prime rate last published in the Wall Street Journal, (2) the greater of the federal funds effective rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the overnight bank funding rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in either case, plus 0.50% and (3) the one-month Term SOFR Rate, plus 0.10% per annum, plus 1.00%, or (B) the greater of the Term SOFR Rate for the applicable interest period, plus 0.10% per annum, and zero; (ii) for loans denominated in Sterling, the
greater of an Adjusted Daily Simple RFR determined based on SONIA and zero; (iii) for loans denominated in Euros, the greater of an Adjusted EURIBOR Rate for the applicable interest period and zero; (iv) for loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, the greater of an Adjusted Canadian Dollar Offered Rate for the applicable interest period and zero; and (v) for loans denominated in Japanese Yen, the greater of an Adjusted TIBOR Rate for the applicable interest period and zero, in the case of sub-clauses (i) through (v) above, plus an applicable margin. Under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, the applicable margin is 0.00% to 0.75% for base rate borrowings and 1.00% to 1.75% for Adjusted Term SOFR borrowings, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR borrowings, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate borrowings, Adjusted Canadian Dollar Offered Rate borrowings and Adjusted TIBOR Rate borrowings, in each case, depending on the Net Average Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement). In addition, the Second Amended Credit Facility requires a commitment fee rate payable in respect of unused portions of the revolving credit facility of 0.125% to 0.275% per annum, depending on the Net Average Total Leverage Ratio.
The Second Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and restrictive covenants, including, among others, financial covenants based on the Company's leverage and interest coverage ratios. The quarterly-tested maximum Net Average Total Leverage Ratio covenant in the Second Amended Credit Agreement is 3.75:1.00, which is subject to increase to 4.25:1.00 for the four fiscal quarters immediately following certain acquisitions. The quarterly-tested Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio covenant in the Second Amended Credit Agreement shall be less than 3.00:1.00. It also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations to be immediately due and payable. As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Second Amended Credit Agreement.
The weighted average interest rate applicable to the Company's multi-currency revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2022 was 5.40%. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had available borrowings under its revolving credit facility of $416.8 million after giving effect to $6.9 million of outstanding letters of credit.
First Amended Credit Facility
The First Amended Credit Facility provided for (x) a $350.0 million term loan facility maturing December 23, 2024 and (y) a $400.0 million revolving credit facility maturing December 23, 2024, including a $50.0 million letter of credit sublimit, a $50.0 million swing line sublimit, a C$50.0 million sublimit available for revolving credit borrowings by Acushnet Canada Inc., a £45.0 million sublimit available for revolving credit borrowings by Acushnet Europe Ltd. and a $200.0 million sublimit for borrowings in Canadian dollars, euros, pounds sterling, Japanese yen and other currencies agreed to by the lenders under the revolving credit facility.
Borrowings under the credit facility bore interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the applicable Borrower’s option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the prime rate of Wells Fargo, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) a Eurodollar Rate, subject to certain adjustments, plus 1.00% or (b) a Eurodollar Rate (or, in the case of Canadian borrowings, a Canadian Dollar Offered Rate), subject to certain adjustments, in each case, plus an applicable margin. Under the credit agreement, the applicable margin was 0.00% to 0.75% for base rate borrowings and 1.00% to 1.75% for Eurodollar rate or Canadian Dollar Offered Rate borrowings, in each case, depending on the net average total leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement). In addition, the Company was required to pay a commitment fee on any unutilized commitments under the revolving credit facility. Under the credit agreement, the commitment fee rate payable in respect of unused portions of the revolving credit facility was 0.15% to 0.30% per annum, depending on the net average total leverage ratio. The initial commitment fee rate was 0.20% per annum. The Company was also required to pay customary letter of credit fees. The interest rate applicable to the term loan facility as of December 31, 2021 was 1.10%.
The Company was required to make principal payments on the loans under the term loan facility in quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 5.00%.
    The maximum net average total leverage ratio under the credit facility was 3.50 to 1.00, which was subject to increase to 3.75 to 1.00 in connection with certain acquisitions, and the minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) was 3.00 to 1.00.
    On July 3, 2020, the Company amended its credit agreement dated December 23, 2019 (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amended the credit agreement to, among other things, modify the maximum net average total leverage ratio, the interest rate margins, commitment fee and covenant baskets for each of the fiscal quarters ending after June 30, 2020 and on or before September 30, 2021 (for such period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”). In connection with amending its credit agreement, the Company incurred fees and expenses of approximately $1.1 million, of which approximately $0.8 million was capitalized as debt issuance costs included in other assets and long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet. The remaining $0.3 million was included in interest expense, net on the consolidated statement of operations. On March 5, 2021, the Company issued a notice exercising its right to an early termination of the Covenant Relief Period.
Change of Control
    A change of control is an event of default under the credit agreement which could result in the acceleration of all outstanding indebtedness and the termination of all commitments under the credit agreement and would allow the lenders under the credit agreement to enforce their rights with respect to the collateral granted. A change of control occurs if any person (other than certain permitted parties, including Fila) becomes the beneficial owner of 35% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company. 
Other Short-Term Borrowings
The Company has certain unsecured local credit facilities available through its subsidiaries. Amounts outstanding under other short-term borrowings are presented in short-term debt in the consolidated balance sheets with the proceeds and repayments presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of cash flows when the original maturity exceeds 90 days. The weighted average interest rate applicable to the outstanding borrowings was 0.85% and 2.57% as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had available borrowings remaining under these local credit facilities of $25.6 million.
Letters of Credit
As of December 31, 2022, there were outstanding letters of credit related to agreements, including the Company's Second Amended Credit Facility, totaling $10.0 million of which $7.3 million was secured.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company principally uses derivative financial instruments to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and interest rate variability on the Company's results of operations. The principal derivative financial instruments the Company enters into are foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instrument contracts for trading or speculative purposes.
Foreign Exchange Derivative Instruments
Foreign exchange forward contracts are foreign exchange derivative instruments primarily used to reduce foreign currency risk related to transactions denominated in a currency other than functional currency. These instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The periods of the foreign exchange forward contracts correspond to the periods of the hedged forecasted transactions, which do not exceed 24 months subsequent to the latest balance sheet date. The primary foreign exchange forward contracts pertain to the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, the Korean won and the euro. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount outstanding of all foreign exchange forward contracts designated under hedge accounting as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $242.4 million and $228.8 million, respectively.
The Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts, which either do not qualify as hedging instruments or have not been designated as such, to reduce foreign currency transaction risk related to certain intercompany assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than functional currency. These undesignated instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability with the corresponding change in fair value recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount outstanding of all foreign exchange forward contracts not
designated under hedge accounting as of December 31, 2022 was $4.0 million. There were no outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts not designated under hedge accounting as of December 31, 2021. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2022 included a gain of $1.2 million related to undesignated foreign exchange forward derivative instruments.
Interest Rate Derivative Instruments
The Company may enter into interest rate swap contracts to reduce interest rate risk related to floating rate debt. Under the contracts, the Company pays fixed and receives variable rate interest, in effect converting a portion of its floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. Interest rate swap contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no interest rate swap contracts outstanding.

Credit Risk
The Company enters into derivative contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions. This credit risk is generally limited to
the unrealized gains in the derivative contracts. However, the Company monitors the credit quality of these financial institutions, as well as its own credit quality, and considers the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

Rabbi trust assets are used to fund certain retirement obligations of the Company. The assets underlying the Rabbi trust are equity and fixed income exchange‑traded funds.
Deferred compensation program assets and liabilities represent a program where select employees could defer compensation until termination of employment. Effective July 29, 2011, this program was amended to cease all employee compensation deferrals and provided for the distribution of all previously deferred employee compensation. The program remains in effect with respect to the value attributable to the employer match contributed prior to July 29, 2011.
Foreign exchange derivative instruments are foreign exchange forward contracts primarily used to limit currency risk that would otherwise result from changes in foreign exchange rates (Note 12). The Company uses the mid‑price of foreign exchange forward rates as of the close of business on the valuation date to value each foreign exchange forward contract at each reporting period.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]  
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Pension and Other Postretirement BenefitsThe Company has various pension and post-employment plans which provide for payment of benefits to certain eligible employees, mainly commencing between the ages of 50 and 65, and for payment of certain disability benefits. After meeting certain qualifications, eligible employees acquire a vested right to future benefits. The benefits payable under the plans are generally determined on the basis of an employee's length of service and/or earnings. Employer contributions to the plans
are made, as necessary, to ensure legal funding requirements are satisfied. The Company may make contributions in excess of the legal funding requirements.
The Company provides postretirement healthcare benefits to certain retirees. Many employees and retirees outside of the United States are covered by government sponsored healthcare programs.

Significant changes in the underfunded defined benefit PBO for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 are primarily driven by changes in the U.S. defined benefit plans. The changes in the U.S. defined benefit plans' PBO for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes a $41.0 million actuarial gain attributable to the change in discount rates, a $44.6 million gain attributable to the change in the lump sum conversion rates and a $8.2 million loss attributable to plan experience being different than anticipated, primarily related to higher salary increases than expected and lump sums paid during 2022. The change in the U.S. defined benefit plan PBO for the year ended December 31, 2021 includes a $10.6 million actuarial gain attributable to the change in discount rates and a $5.1 million loss attributable to plan experience being different than anticipated, primarily related to higher salary increases than expected.
The Company had one overfunded defined benefit plan for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. Significant changes in the overfunded defined benefit PBO for the year ended December 31, 2022 include a $12.3 million actuarial gain attributable to the change in discount rates, offset in part by an actuarial loss of $2.0 million due to census data updates. Significant changes in the overfunded defined benefit PBO for the year ended December 31, 2021 include a $2.4 million actuarial gain attributable to the change in discount rates and a $1.2 million actuarial loss attributable to the increase in inflation assumption.
The change in the postretirement benefit plan PBO for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes a $3.2 million gain due to the change in the discount rate, offset in part by a $1.4 million actuarial loss attributable to plan experience, primarily related to claims losses, and a $0.3 million loss due to updated health care trend rates. The change in the postretirement benefit plan PBO for the year ended December 31, 2021 includes a $1.3 million gain related to updates to demographic and health care trend assumptions and a $0.7 million actuarial gain attributable to the change in the discount rate.

Pension assets include fixed income securities and commingled funds. Fixed income securities are valued at daily closing prices or institutional mid-evaluation prices provided by independent industry-recognized pricing sources. Commingled funds are not traded in active markets with quoted prices and as a result, are valued using the net asset values provided by the administrator of the fund. The investments underlying the net asset values are based on quoted prices traded in active markets. In accordance with ASU 2015-7, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), the Company has elected the practical expedient to exclude assets measured at net asset value from the fair value hierarchy.
The Company's investment strategy seeks to reduce asset-liability risk as the funded ratio of the plan improves. The mix of return seeking and liability hedging assets is determined by taking into account factors such as the funded status level of the plan, the characteristics of the plan’s liabilities, asset volatility and local regulations. All retirement asset allocations are reviewed periodically to ensure the allocation meets the needs of the liability structure.
Master trusts were established to hold the assets of the Company's U.S. defined benefit plan. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the U.S. defined benefit plan asset allocation of these trusts targeted a return-seeking investment allocation of 26% to 32% and a liability-hedging investment allocation of 68% to 74%. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the U.S. defined benefit plan asset allocation of these trusts targeted a return-seeking investment allocation of 30% to 62% and a liability-hedging investment allocation of 38% to 70%. Return-seeking investments include equities, real estate, high yield bonds and other instruments. Liability-hedging investments include assets such as corporate and government fixed income securities.
The Company's future expected blended long-term rate of return on plan assets of 3.91% is determined based on long-term historical performance of plan assets, current asset allocation, and projected long-term rates of return.
Estimated Contributions
The Company expects to make pension contributions of approximately $5.7 million during 2023 based on current assumptions as of December 31, 2022.
Estimated Future Retirement Benefit Payments
The following retirement benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, are expected to be paid as follows:

The estimated future retirement benefit payments noted above are estimates and could change significantly based on differences between actuarial assumptions and actual events and decisions related to lump sum distribution options that are available to participants in certain plans.
International Plans
Pension coverage for certain eligible employees of the Company's international subsidiaries is provided, to the extent deemed appropriate, through separate defined benefit pension plans. The international defined benefit pension plans are included in the tables above. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the international pension plans had total projected benefit obligations of $35.4 million and $52.3 million, respectively, and fair values of plan assets of $27.8 million and $47.6 million, respectively. The majority of the plan assets are invested in equity securities and insured pension assets. The net periodic benefit cost related to international plans was $3.3 million, $2.1 million and $1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
In the third quarter of 2021, the Company executed a buy-in policy contract with an insurance company which fully insures the benefits of one of its defined benefit pension plans outside the United States. The initial value of the insurance asset was equal to the premium paid to secure the policy (i.e., the fair value of the plan assets plus additional funding to execute the buy-in contract). As a result, the Company does not anticipate any further material contributions to the plan.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company sponsors a number of defined contribution plans and company contributions related to these plans are determined under various formulas. Company contributions to defined contribution plans amounted to $20.0 million, $14.8 million and $13.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Under U.S. tax law and regulations, certain changes in the ownership of the Company’s shares can limit the annual utilization of tax attributes (tax loss and tax credit carryforwards) that were generated prior to such ownership changes. The annual limitation could affect the realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets recorded in the financial statement for its tax credit carryforwards because the carryforward periods have a finite duration. The 2016 initial public offering, and associated share transfers, resulted in significant changes in the composition of the ownership of the Company’s shares. Based on its analysis of the change of ownership tax rules in conjunction with the estimated amount and source of its future earnings and related tax profile, the Company believes its existing U.S. tax attributes will be utilized prior to their expiration, with the exception of certain tax attributes for which the Company has established a valuation allowance.
As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of $74.8 million and $90.8 million, respectively. These NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 2023. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had foreign tax credit carryforwards of $31.9 million and $47.5 million, respectively. These foreign tax credits will begin to expire in 2026. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had U.S. general business credit carryforwards of $24.9 million and $21.9 million, respectively. These credits will begin to expire in 2031. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had state income tax credits of $8.7 million and $8.3 million, respectively. These credits will begin to expire in 2031.
Changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets were as follows:
 Year ended December 31, 
(in thousands)202220212020
Valuation allowance at beginning of year$30,030 $20,404 $18,424 
Increases recorded to income tax provision4,079 9,626 1,980 
Valuation allowance at end of year$34,109 $30,030 $20,404 
The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets based upon the weight of available positive and negative evidence. In assessing the realizability of these assets, the Company considered numerous factors including historical profitability, the character and estimated future taxable income, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and the industry in which it operates. The Company’s conclusion was primarily driven by cumulative income in its respective tax jurisdictions as well as projections of future income driven by sustained profitability.
In 2022, the change in the valuation allowance of $4.1 million is principally due to excess U.S. foreign tax credits arising from the Company's Japan branch operations and state tax attributes that it expects to expire unutilized. In 2021 and 2020, the change in valuation allowance was principally due to excess U.S. foreign tax credits arising from its Japan branch operations and state tax attributes that it expects to expire unutilized.
The Company has determined that its undistributed earnings for most of its foreign subsidiaries are not permanently reinvested. The Company has provided for withholding taxes on all unremitted earnings that are not permanently reinvested, as required.
The Company's unrecognized tax benefits represent tax positions for which reserves have been established. The following table represents a reconciliation of the activity related to the unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest and penalties:

As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the unrecognized tax benefits of $9.5 million, $8.7 million and $7.8 million, respectively, would affect the Company's future effective tax rate if recognized. The Company does not anticipate a material change in unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company does not have unrecognized tax benefits related to periods prior to the Company’s acquisition.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized a liability of $0.2 million for interest and penalties. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized de minimis interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $3.6 million related to interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense, of which $3.7 million resulted in a corresponding reduction of the Beam indemnification asset and is included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of operations.
Prior to the Company's acquisition of Acushnet Company, Acushnet Company or its subsidiaries filed certain combined tax returns with Beam. Those and other subsidiaries' income tax returns were periodically examined by various tax authorities. Beam was responsible for managing United States tax audits related to periods prior to July 29, 2011. Acushnet Company was obligated to support these audits and was responsible for managing all non-U.S. audits. In 2020, the Company settled an income tax audit with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts related to the pre-acquisition period which resulted in a refund of $1.2 million. The settlement’s effect on the Company's unrecognized tax benefits is presented above.
The Company and certain subsidiaries have tax years that remain open and are subject to examination by tax authorities in the following major taxing jurisdictions: United States for years after July 29, 2011, Japan for years after 2015, Korea for years after 2020 and the United Kingdom for years after 2016. The Company files income tax returns on a combined, unitary, or stand-alone basis in multiple state and local jurisdictions, which generally have statute of limitations from three to four years. Various state and local income tax returns, as well as certain international jurisdictions, are currently in the process of examination. These examinations are unlikely to result in any significant changes to the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.

Share Repurchase Program
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $250.0 million of its issued and outstanding common stock, bringing the total authorization under its existing share repurchase program up to $450.0 million as of December 31, 2022. Share repurchases may be effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, including transactions with affiliates, with the timing of purchases and the amount of stock purchased generally determined at the discretion of the Company consistent with the Company's general working capital needs and within the constraints of the Company’s credit agreement.
On May 10, 2019, in connection with this share repurchase program, the Company entered into an agreement with Magnus to purchase from Magnus an equal amount of its common stock as it purchases on the open market, up to an aggregate of $24.9 million, at the same weighted average per share price (the "2019 Agreement"). As the Company purchased a cumulative total of $24.9 million of its common stock through open market purchases, the determination date, as defined in the 2019 Agreement, was automatically triggered on March 18, 2021. As a result, on April 2, 2021, the Company purchased 355,341 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $11.1 million from Magnus, in satisfaction of its obligations under the 2019 Agreement.
On November 8, 2021, the Company entered into a new agreement with Magnus to purchase from Magnus an equal amount of its common stock as it purchases on the open market, up to an aggregate of $37.5 million, at the same weighted average per share price (the "2021 Agreement"). In relation to the 2021 Agreement, the Company recorded a share repurchase liability of $29.2 million for 537,839 shares of its common stock which was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and treasury stock on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. Between January 1, 2022 and January 14, 2022, the Company purchased an additional 161,980 shares of its common stock on the open market for an aggregate of $8.3 million, bringing the cumulative total open market purchases to $37.5 million. As a result, on January 24, 2022, the Company purchased 699,819 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $37.5 million from Magnus, in satisfaction of its obligations under the 2021 Agreement.
On June 16, 2022, the Company entered into a new agreement with Magnus to purchase from Magnus an equal amount of its common stock as it purchases on the open market over the period of time from July 1, 2022 through January 13, 2023, up to an aggregate of $75.0 million, at the same weighted average per share price (the "2022 Agreement"). On August 30, 2022, the Company amended and restated the 2022 Agreement to increase the aggregate dollar amount of shares of its common stock that it will purchase from Magnus from $75.0 million to $100.0 million, (the "Amended and Restated 2022 Agreement"). In relation to this agreement, the Company recorded a share repurchase liability of $92.6 million for 2,000,839 shares of common stock, which was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and treasury stock on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
The Company's share repurchase activity for the periods presented was as follows:

___________________________________
(1) In March 2021, the Company resumed share repurchases, which had been temporarily suspended in April 2020 in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
(2) In accordance with the share repurchase agreements, shares purchased from Magnus are accrued for at the same weighted average price as those purchased on the open market, as if the purchase from Magnus had occurred on the same day. As such, the average price of Magnus repurchases during the current period will differ from open market repurchases due to the settlement of the previously recorded share repurchase liability, as well as, open market purchases made after the completion of the Magnus Share repurchase agreements.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $157.4 million remaining under the current share repurchase authorization, including $100.0 million related to the Amended and Restated 2022 Agreement. This program will remain in effect until completed or until terminated by the Board of Directors.
Between January 1, 2023 and January 13, 2023, the Company purchased an additional 167,689 shares of its common stock on the open market for an aggregate of $7.4 million, bringing the cumulative total open market purchases since the inception of the 2022 Agreement to $100.0 million. As a result, on January 23, 2023, the Company purchased 2,168,528 shares of its common stock from Magnus for an aggregate of $100.0 million, in satisfaction of its obligation under the Amended and Restated 2022 Agreement.
On February 9, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $250.0 million of its issued and outstanding common stock, bringing the total authorization up to $700.0 million since the share repurchase program was established in 2018.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Equity Incentive Plans Equity Incentive Plans
Under the Acushnet Holdings Corp. 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance stock units ("PSUs") and other share-based and cash-based awards to members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company. The 2015 Plan is administered by the compensation committee (the “Administrator”). The Administrator has the authority to establish the terms and conditions of any award issued or granted under the 2015 Plan. As of December 31, 2022, the only awards granted under the 2015 Plan were RSUs and PSUs.
Restricted Stock and Performance Stock Units
RSUs granted to members of the Board of Directors vest immediately into shares of common stock. RSUs granted to Company officers generally vest over three years, with one-third of each grant vesting annually, subject to the recipient's continued employment with the Company. RSUs granted to other employees, consultants and advisors of the Company vest in accordance with the terms of the grants, generally either over three years or, beginning in 2022, with one-third of each grant vesting annually, subject to the recipient’s continued service to the Company. PSUs granted to Company officers and other employees vest based upon the Company's performance against specified metrics, generally over a three year performance period, subject to the recipient's continued service to the Company. At the end of the performance period, the number of shares of common stock that could be issued is determined based upon the Company's performance against these metrics. The number of shares that could be issued can range from 0% to 200% of the recipient's target award. Recipients of the awards granted under the 2015 Plan may elect to defer receipt of all or any portion of any shares of common stock issuable upon vesting to a future date elected by the recipient.
All RSUs and PSUs granted under the 2015 Plan have DERs, which entitle holders of RSUs and PSUs to the same dividend value per share as holders of common stock and can be paid in either cash or common stock. DERs are subject to the same vesting and other terms and conditions as the corresponding unvested RSUs and PSUs. DERs are paid when the underlying shares of common stock are delivered.
Each share issued with respect to RSUs and PSUs granted under the 2015 Plan reduces the number of shares available for grant. RSUs and PSUs forfeited and shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations increase the number of shares available for grant. As of December 31, 2022, there were 5,962,075 remaining shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2015 Plan of which 3,295,205 remain available for future grants.

The Company’s potential dilutive securities for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 include RSUs and PSUs. PSUs vest based upon achievement of performance targets and are excluded from the diluted shares outstanding unless the performance targets have been met as of the end of the applicable reporting period regardless of whether such performance targets are probable of achievement. During both 2022 and 2021, the minimum performance target was achieved relating to certain PSUs and as a result, these PSUs have been included in diluted shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
The Company’s operating segments are based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) makes decisions about assessing performance and allocating resources. The Company has four reportable segments that are organized on the basis of product categories. These segments include Titleist golf balls, Titleist golf clubs, Titleist golf gear and FootJoy golf wear.
The CODM primarily evaluates performance using segment operating income (loss). Segment operating income (loss) includes directly attributable expenses and certain shared costs of corporate administration that are allocated to the reportable segments, but excludes interest expense, net; restructuring charges, the non-service cost component of net periodic benefit cost; transaction fees and other non-operating gains and losses as the Company does not allocate these to the reportable segments. The CODM does not evaluate a measure of assets when assessing performance.
Results shown for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily those which would be achieved if each segment was an unaffiliated business enterprise. There are no intersegment transactions.

Commitments and Contingencies Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Obligations
During the normal course of its business, the Company enters into agreements to purchase goods and services, including purchase commitments for advertising (including media placement and production costs), finished goods inventory, capital expenditures and endorsement arrangements with professional golfers.
The Company's purchase obligations as of December 31, 2022 were as follows:
 Payments Due by Period

Purchase obligations(1)
$258,304 $17,482 $5,477 $2,480 $2,489 $9,653 
(1)    The reported amounts exclude those liabilities included in accounts payable or accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
Contingencies
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Acushnet Company, Beam indemnified the Company for certain tax related obligations that relate to periods during which Fortune Brands, Inc. owned Acushnet Company. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized $9.9 million in other expense, net on the consolidated statement of operations related to the reduction of the indemnification receivable. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have an indemnification receivable related to periods prior to the Company’s acquisition of Acushnet Company (see Note 15).
Litigation
The Company and its subsidiaries are party to lawsuits associated with the normal conduct of their businesses and operations. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any litigation, it is possible that some of these actions could be decided unfavorably. Consequently, the Company is unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary loss, amounts covered by insurance or the financial impact that will result from such matters and has not recorded a liability related to potential losses.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Basis of PresentationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and less than wholly-owned subsidiaries, including a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate the potential impact of the current macroeconomic environment on its estimates and judgements. These impacts continue to evolve, and both the full impact and duration remain highly uncertain. Accordingly, the Company's business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows could be materially impacted in ways that the Company cannot currently predict.
Variable Interest Entities
Variable Interest Entities
VIEs are entities that, by design, either (i) lack sufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities independently, or (ii) have equity holders that do not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses, or the right to receive the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company consolidates a VIE when it is the primary beneficiary, which is the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive expected benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company consolidates the accounts of Acushnet Lionscore Limited, a VIE which is 40% owned by the Company. The sole purpose of the VIE is to manufacture the Company’s golf footwear and as such, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The Company has presented separately on its consolidated balance sheets, to the extent material, the assets of its consolidated VIE that can only be used to settle specific obligations of its consolidated VIE and the liabilities of its consolidated VIE for which creditors do not have recourse to its general credit. The general creditors of the VIE do not have
recourse to the Company. Certain directors of the VIE have guaranteed the credit lines of the VIE, for which there were no outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the VIE, the Company is not required to provide financial support to the VIE.
Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The ownership interests held by owners other than the Company in less than wholly-owned subsidiaries are classified as noncontrolling interests. The financial results and position of noncontrolling interests are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The value attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented on the consolidated balance sheets, separately from the equity attributable to the Company. Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.
On April 1, 2022, the Company acquired the outstanding equity interest in PG Golf LLC for $5.0 million, including cash consideration of $3.6 million and contingent consideration of $1.4 million, which was included in other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
Redeemable noncontrolling interests are those noncontrolling interests which are or may become redeemable at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date, at the option of the holder, or upon occurrence of an event. The Company initially records the redeemable noncontrolling interest at its acquisition date fair value. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is subsequently adjusted to the greater amount of either the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable noncontrolling interest's share of comprehensive income (loss) or the redemption value, assuming the noncontrolling interest is redeemable at the balance sheet date. This adjustment is recognized through retained earnings and is not reflected in net income (loss) or comprehensive income (loss). During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a $1.9 million redemption value adjustment to decrease the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $2.8 million redemption value adjustment to increase the carrying value of redeemable noncontrolling interests. The value attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests and any related loans to minority shareholders, which are recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interests, are presented in the consolidated balance sheets as temporary equity between liabilities and shareholders’ equity.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted CashCash held in Company checking accounts is included in cash. Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less which are readily convertible into cash. The Company classifies as restricted certain cash that is not available for use in its operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk Concentration of Credit RiskFinancial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentration of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Substantially all of the Company's cash deposits are maintained at large, creditworthy financial institutions. The Company's deposits, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. As part of its ongoing procedures, the Company monitors its concentration of deposits with various financial institutions in order to avoid any undue exposure. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $54.9 million and $65.7 million, respectively, in banks located outside the United States. The risk with respect to the Company's accounts receivable is managed by the Company through its policy of monitoring the creditworthiness of its customers to which it grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
Inventories
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Approximate cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The inventory balance, which includes material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs, is recorded net of an allowance for obsolete or slow moving inventory. The Company's allowance for obsolete or slow moving inventory contains
estimates regarding uncertainties. Such estimates are updated each reporting period and require the Company to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding a number of factors, including market conditions, selling environment, historical results and current inventory trends.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and amortizing intangible assets, are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, respectively. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, except for leasehold and tenant improvements which are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Gains or losses resulting from disposals are included in income from operations. Betterments and renewals, which improve and extend the life of an asset, are capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.
Estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment asset categories were as follows:
Buildings and improvements15-40 years
Machinery and equipment3-10 years
Furniture, fixtures and computer hardware3-10 years
Computer software1-10 years
Certain costs incurred in connection with the development of the Company's internal-use software are capitalized. Internal-use software development costs are primarily related to the Company's enterprise resource planning system. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Internal and external costs incurred in the application development phase, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing performed to ensure the product is ready for its intended use. Costs such as maintenance and training are expensed as incurred. The capitalized internal-use software costs are included in property, plant and equipment and once the software is placed into service are amortized over the estimated useful life which ranges from three to ten years.
Impairment
Impairment
A long-lived asset (including right of use assets) or asset group is tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group to the carrying amount of the asset or asset group. The cash flows are based on the best estimate of future cash flows derived from the most recent business projections. If the carrying value exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the asset's or asset group's carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted expected future cash flows on a market participant basis.
The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance may not be recoverable. These factors may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business plans, or changes in anticipated cash flows.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but instead are measured for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. The Company performs its annual impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.
Goodwill is assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. A reporting unit may be the same as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. For purposes of assessing potential impairment, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is considered not impaired. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company records a goodwill impairment loss in the amount of the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The fair value of the reporting units is determined using the income approach. The income approach uses a discounted cash flow analysis which involves applying appropriate discount rates to estimated future cash flows based on forecasts of sales, costs and capital requirements.
Purchased intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined to be indefinite. Certain of the Company's trademarks have been assigned an indefinite life as the Company currently anticipates that these trademarks will contribute to its cash flows indefinitely. Indefinite-lived trademarks are reviewed for impairment annually and may be reviewed more frequently if indicators of impairment are present. Impairment losses are recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value. The Company measures the fair value of its trademarks using the relief-from-royalty method, which estimates the present value of royalty income that could be hypothetically earned by licensing the brand name to a third party over the remaining useful life.
Leases
Leases
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company's assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether the Company obtained the right to substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
All leases are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842 and are classified as either operating or finance leases. A lease is classified as a finance lease if any one of the following criteria are met: the lease transfers ownership of the asset by the end of the lease term, the lease contains an option to purchase the asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised, the lease term is for a major part of the remaining useful life of the asset, the present value of the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the asset, or the leased asset is of a highly specialized nature. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not meet any one of these criteria.
The Company recognizes operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the present value of the lease payments under the lease. Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: the fixed non-cancelable lease payments, payments for optional renewal periods where it is reasonably certain the renewal period will be exercised, and payments for early termination options unless it is reasonably certain the lease will not be terminated early. The discount rate implicit within the Company's leases is generally not determinable and therefore the Company determines the discount rate based on its incremental collateralized borrowing rate applicable to the location where the lease is held. The incremental borrowing rate for each of the Company's leases is determined based on the lease term and currency in which such lease payments are made.
The lease classification affects the expense recognition in the consolidated statements of operations. Operating lease expense consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statements of operations. Finance lease charges are split, where amortization of the right-of-use asset is recorded as depreciation expense and an implied interest component is recorded in interest expense, net. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred and include maintenance costs, real estate taxes and property insurance.
The Company has elected to not separate non-lease components within its lease portfolio and has also elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.
Debt Issuance Costs Debt Issuance CostsThe Company defers costs directly associated with acquiring third-party financing. These debt issuance costs are amortized as interest expense over the term of the related indebtedness. Debt issuance costs associated with the revolving credit facilities are included in other assets and debt issuance costs associated with all other indebtedness are netted against long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.
The Company’s derivative instrument assets and liabilities are carried at fair value determined according to the fair value hierarchy described above (Note 12 and 13). The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The carrying value of the Company's variable interest rate debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of the interest rate.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company provides U.S. and foreign defined benefit and defined contribution plans to certain eligible employees and postretirement benefits to certain retirees, including pensions, postretirement healthcare benefits and other postretirement benefits.
Plan assets and obligations are measured using various actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, rate of compensation increase, mortality rates, turnover rates and health care cost trend rates, as determined at each year end measurement date. The measurement of net periodic benefit cost is based on various actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, expected return on plan assets and rate of compensation increase, which are determined as of the prior year measurement date. The determination of the discount rate is generally based on an index created from a hypothetical bond portfolio consisting of high-quality fixed income securities with durations that match the timing of expected benefit payments. The expected return on plan assets is determined based on several factors, including adjusted historical returns, historical risk premiums for various asset classes and target asset allocations within the portfolio. Adjustments made to the historical returns are based on recent return experience in the equity and fixed income markets and the belief that deviations from historical returns are likely over the relevant investment horizon. Actual cost is also dependent on various other factors related to the employees covered by these plans. The effects of actuarial deviations from assumptions are generally accumulated and, if over a specified corridor, amortized over the remaining service period of the employees. The cost or benefit of plan changes, such as increasing or decreasing benefits for prior employee service (prior service cost), is deferred and included in expense on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of the related employees. The Company's actuarial assumptions are reviewed on an annual basis and modified when appropriate.
To calculate the U.S. pension and postretirement benefit plan expense in 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company applied the individual spot rates along the yield curve that correspond with the timing of each future cash outflow for the benefit payments in order to calculate interest cost and service cost.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis amounts at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that such assets will not be realized. Potential for recovery of deferred tax assets is evaluated by estimating the future taxable profits expected and considering prudent and feasible tax planning strategies.
The Company records liabilities for uncertain income tax positions based on the two-step process. The first step is recognition, where an individual tax position is evaluated as to whether it has a likelihood of greater than 50% of being sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. For tax positions that are currently estimated to have a less than 50% likelihood of being sustained, no tax benefit is recorded. For tax positions that have met the recognition threshold in the first step, the Company performs the second step of measuring the benefit to be recorded. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized on ultimate settlement. The actual benefits ultimately realized may differ from the estimates. In future periods, changes in facts, circumstances, and new information may require the Company to change the recognition and measurement estimates with regard to individual tax positions. Changes in recognition and measurement estimates are recorded in income tax expense and liability in the period in which such changes occur. The Company recognizes
accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations.
Beam indemnified certain tax obligations that relate to periods during which Fortune Brands, Inc. owned Acushnet Company (Note 22). These estimated tax obligations were recorded in accrued taxes and other noncurrent liabilities, and the related indemnification receivable were recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Any changes in the value of these specifically identified tax obligations were recorded in the period identified in income tax expense and the related change in the indemnification asset was recorded in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 15 for additional information.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the 2017 Tax Act. The 2017 Tax Act contains a new law that subjects the Company to a tax on Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), beginning in 2018. GILTI is a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of related foreign corporations. Companies subject to GILTI have the option to account for the GILTI tax as a period cost if and when incurred, or to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences, including outside basis differences, expected to reverse as GILTI. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period cost.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold includes all costs to make products salable, such as inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs and transfer costs. In addition, all depreciation expense associated with assets used to manufacture products and make them salable is included in cost of goods sold.
Product Warranty Product WarrantyThe Company has defined warranties generally ranging from one to two years. Products covered by the defined warranty policies primarily include all Titleist golf products, FootJoy golf shoes, and FootJoy golf outerwear. These product warranties generally obligate the Company to pay for the cost of replacement products, including the cost of shipping replacement products to its customers. The estimated cost of satisfying future warranty claims is accrued at the time the sale is recorded. In estimating future warranty obligations, the Company considers various factors, including its warranty policies and practices, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair products under warranty.
Advertising and Promotion Advertising and PromotionAdvertising and promotional costs are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations and include product endorsement arrangements with members of the various professional golf tours, media placement and production costs (television, print and internet), tour support expenses and point-of-sale materials. Advertising production costs are expensed as incurred. Media placement costs are expensed in the month the advertising first appears. Product endorsement arrangements are expensed based upon the specific provisions of player contracts.
Selling SellingSelling expenses including field sales, sales administration, shipping and handling costs and commissions paid on certain retail sales are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Research and Development
Research and Development
Research and development is expensed as incurred and includes product development costs, product improvement costs, product engineering costs and process improvement costs.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Foreign Currency Translation and TransactionsAssets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the actual rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange for the reporting period. The related translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Transactions denominated in a currency other than functional currency are re-measured into functional currency with the resulting transaction gain or loss recorded as selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative Financial InstrumentsAll derivative instruments are measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. If the derivative instrument is designated as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss resulting from changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments and of the hedged item are immediately recognized in the statements of operations. If the derivative instrument is designated as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss is initially recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. The gain or loss is subsequently reclassified into the statements of operations at the time the forecasted transaction impacts the statements of operations or at the time the hedge is deemed to be ineffective. Cash flows from derivative financial instruments and the related hedged transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities.
Share-based Compensation Share-based CompensationThe Company has an equity incentive plan for members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company. All awards granted under the plan are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The estimated fair value is determined based on the closing price of the Company's common stock, generally on the award date, multiplied by the number of shares per the stock award. The Company issues share-based awards with service-based vesting conditions and performance-based vesting conditions. Awards with service-based vesting conditions are amortized as expense over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the measurement of the expense is based on the Company’s performance against specified metrics as defined in the applicable award agreements. The Company accounts for forfeitures in share based compensation expense when they occur.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Income Taxes
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes". The amendments in this update simplified the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improved consistent application and simplified U.S. GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU's. Management determined that recently issued ASU's are not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
