Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]  
Revision of Consolidated Financial Statements for Correction of Immaterial Misstatement Revision of Consolidated Financial Statements for Correction of Immaterial Misstatement
During the preparation of the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended November 2, 2024, the Company identified an issue related to delivery expenses, a component of cost of sales, in one of its accrual accounts. The Company consequently initiated an independent investigation. As a result of the independent investigation and forensic analysis, the Company identified that a single employee with responsibility for small package delivery expense accounting intentionally made erroneous accounting accrual entries and falsified underlying documentation to hide approximately $151 million of cumulative delivery expenses from the fourth quarter of 2021 through the third quarter of 2024. The Company concluded that revisions should be made to its historical consolidated financial statements that were impacted by these misstatements to properly reflect delivery expense, the related accrual and tax effects. The total misstatement to delivery expense for the first half of fiscal 2024 amounted to approximately $9 million, which was adjusted in total during the third quarter of 2024.

In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality, and SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, the Company evaluated the errors and determined that the related impact was not material to results of operations or financial position for any historical annual or interim period. Specifically, the errors identified did not impact net sales which the Company believes is a key financial metric of the users of the financial statements and do not impact trends in profitability or key financial statement operating metrics. The errors also did not impact the company’s cash management activities or vendor payments, net cash flows from operating activities or the Company’s compliance with its debt covenants. Based on this assessment and the consideration of both quantitative and qualitative factors, management determined that the errors are not material to any prior period. However, the Company is correcting such errors in the financial statements of this Form 10-Q by adjusting prior period financial statements. As a result, the Company has revised, within this Form 10-Q, its consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the quarterly and year-to-date periods as shown below. Additionally, Note 2 – Earnings Per Share, has been adjusted to reflect the correction of the immaterial errors.
