Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 Acushnet Holdings Corp. (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.
Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. GAAP. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements; however, the accompanying interim notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022, nor were those of the comparable 2021 periods representative of those actually experienced for the full year ended December 31, 2021. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed 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 COVID-19 pandemic on its consolidated financial statements. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and both the full impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic 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 unaudited condensed 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 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
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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The value attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented on the unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 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 recorded 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a redemption value adjustment of $1.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The value attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest and the related loan to minority shareholders, which is recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interest, is presented in the unaudited condensed 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount of restricted cash included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was $1.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.2 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $15.0 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). Management determined that recently issued ASUs are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

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.
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 unaudited condensed 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 three and nine months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Second Amended Credit Agreement.
As of September 30, 2022, there were $405.6 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of 4.28%. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had available borrowings under its revolving credit facility of $537.3 million after giving effect to $7.1 million of outstanding letters of credit.
Other Short-Term Borrowings
The Company has certain unsecured local credit facilities available through its subsidiaries. There were $27.5 million and $0.1 million in outstanding borrowings under the Company's local credit facilities as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The weighted average interest rate applicable to the outstanding borrowings was 0.49% and 2.57% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had available borrowings remaining under these local credit facilities of $32.1 million.
Letters of Credit
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were outstanding letters of credit related to agreements, including the Company's Second Amended Credit Facility, totaling $9.9 million and $17.3 million, respectively, of which $7.5 million and $14.3 million, respectively, was secured. These agreements provided a maximum commitment for letters of credit of $57.5 million as of September 30, 2022.

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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $220.8 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. There were no outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts not designated under hedge accounting as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included a gain of $1.2 million related to undesignated foreign exchange forward derivative instruments.
Interest Rate Derivative Instruments
The Company enters 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no interest rate swap contracts outstanding.

Gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax at the time the forecasted hedged transaction impacts the statements of operations or at the time the hedge is determined to be ineffective. Based on the current valuation, during the next 12 months the Company expects to reclassify a net gain of $14.2 million related to foreign exchange derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, into cost of goods sold. For further information related to amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, see Note 12.

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.

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.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 were as follows:

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 6). 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.

Share Repurchase Program
On July 26, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $100.0 million of its issued and outstanding common stock, bringing the total authorization up to $450.0 million as of September 30, 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 Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Magnus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fila Holdings Corp., 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 $41.6 million for 869,368 shares of common stock, which was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and treasury stock on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022.

(1)    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 September 30, 2022, the Company had $208.4 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.

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. As of September 30, 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.

Net income per common share attributable to Acushnet Holdings Corp. was calculated using the treasury stock method.
The Company’s potential dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 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 three and nine months ended September 30, 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 three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily those which would be achieved if each segment was an unaffiliated business enterprise. There are no intersegment transactions.
Information by reportable segment and a reconciliation to reported amounts are as follows:

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)

Sep. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 Acushnet Holdings Corp. (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.
Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. GAAP. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements; however, the accompanying interim notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022, nor were those of the comparable 2021 periods representative of those actually experienced for the full year ended December 31, 2021. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed 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 COVID-19 pandemic on its consolidated financial statements. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and both the full impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic 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 unaudited condensed 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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 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 Interest
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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The value attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented on the unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 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 recorded 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a redemption value adjustment of $1.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The value attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest and the related loan to minority shareholders, which is recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interest, is presented in the unaudited condensed 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.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign Currency Transactions
Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.2 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Foreign currency transaction losses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were $15.0 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). Management determined that recently issued ASUs are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
