Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There were no significant changes to our Significant Accounting Policies as disclosed in the Annual Report. For more information regarding our Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates, see Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of our Annual Report.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Leases. In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-01,“Leases (Topic 842), Common Control Arrangements.”The amendments in the ASU applying to public business entities clarify the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, reducing diversity in practice and providing investors with financial information that will better reflect the economics of those transactions. In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-01 on a prospective basis to all new leasehold improvements. The adoption of ASU 2023-01 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures and would only have an impact to the extent that the Company has future common control leases.

Supplier Finance Programs. In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04,“Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50).” The ASU requires disclosure of the key terms of outstanding supply chain finance programs and a rollforward of the related amounts due to vendors participating in these programs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company adopted the portion of the ASU 2022-04 guidance requiring disclosure of key terms of supply chain finance programs. The portion of the ASU 2022-04 guidance requiring a rollforward of activity within supply chain finance programs will be adopted in the Company’s Annual Report for fiscal 2024 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as the standard only impacts financial statement footnote disclosures. For additional information, refer to Note 9, “Supply Chain Finance.”

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Codification Improvements. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-02,“Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements.”ASU 2024-02 removes references to various FASB Concepts Statements within the Codification. The guidance in ASU No. 2024-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and can be applied either prospectively to all new transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments or retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in which the amendments were first applied. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2024-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Stock Compensation. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01,“Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718).”The amendments in this ASU clarify how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), by adding illustrative guidance. The guidance in ASU No. 2024-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and can be applied either retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements or prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after the date at which the entity first applies the amendments. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2024-01 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. The Company expects that ASU 2024-01 would only be applicable to the Company to the extent that it issues profits interests or similar awards.

Income Taxes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09,“Income Taxes (Topic 740).”The amendments in this ASU improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. Additionally, this ASU improves the effectiveness and comparability of disclosures by adding disclosures of pretax income (or loss) and income tax expense (or benefit) to be consistent with SEC Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h) and by removing disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial or relevant. This guidance in ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Segment Reporting. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07,“Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.”This ASU expands disclosure of reportable segments by requiring more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how the Chief Operating Decision Maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The guidance in ASU No. 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. This guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Presentation and Disclosure Requirements. In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06,“Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.”The ASU amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB ASC. The ASU was issued in response to the SEC’s August 2018 final amendments in Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, that updated and simplified disclosure requirements that the SEC believed were duplicative, overlapping, or outdated. The guidance in ASU 2023-06 is intended to align GAAP requirements with those of the SEC and to facilitate the application of GAAP for all entities. The amendments introduced by ASU 2023-06 are effective if the SEC removes the related disclosure or presentation requirement from its existing regulations by June 30, 2027. If, by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirements from its existing regulations, the pending content of the associated amendment will be removed from the ASC and will not become effective for any entities. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2023-06 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

2. Revenue

Net sales consist of revenue associated with contracts with customers for the sale of goods and services in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company is entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services.

Deferred Revenue & Contract Liabilities

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the inventory. Amounts in deferred revenue at period-end reflect orders for which the inventory was not yet ready for physical transfer to customers.

Contract liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023 primarily consisted of deferred revenue as well as amounts in accrued expenses and other current liabilities related to the Pro Premier Rewards loyalty program and unredeemed gift cards. As of September 26, 2024, contract liabilities totaled $73.0 million and included $52.4 million of loyalty program liabilities, $12.5 million of deferred revenue, and $8.1 million of unredeemed gift cards. As of December 28, 2023, contract liabilities totaled $69.6 million and included $45.6 million of loyalty program liabilities, $11.3 million of deferred revenue, and $12.7 million of unredeemed gift cards. Of the contract liabilities outstanding as of December 28, 2023, approximately $17.3 million was recognized in revenue during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024.

Disaggregated Revenue

The Company hasone reportable segment. The following table presents the net sales of each major product category (dollars in thousands):

(1) Other includes delivery, sample, and other product revenue and adjustments for deferred revenue, sales returns reserves, and other revenue related adjustments that are not allocated on a product-category basis.

3. Debt

The following table summarizes the Company’s long-term debt as of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023:

(1) The applicable interest rate for the Term Loan Facility as presented herein does not include the effect of interest rate cap agreements. Refer to Note 8, “Fair Value Measurements” for additional details related to the Company’s interest rate cap agreements.

The following table summarizes scheduled maturities of the Company’s debt as of September 26, 2024:

Components of interest expense are as follows for the periods presented:

(1)Total interest expense, net of interest income includes interest income related to the Company’s interest rate cap agreements. The Company recognizedno interest income related to interest rate cap agreements for the thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2024 compared to $1.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2023. The Company recognized interest income related to interest rate cap agreements of $1.9 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 compared to $3.7 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2023. Refer to Note 8, “Fair Value Measurements” for additional details related to the Company’s interest rate cap agreements.

Term Loan Facility

The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a rate equal to either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the “Prime Rate,” (2) the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (3) the one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.0%, or (b) Adjusted Term SOFR, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin (each term as defined in the Term Loan Facility credit agreement). The Applicable Margin for base rate loans will be between 1.00% and 1.25%, and the Applicable Margin for SOFR loans will be between 2.00% and 2.25% (subject to a floor of 0.00%), in each case, if the Company exceeds certain leverage ratio tests.

All obligations under the Term Loan Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in the collateral securing the ABL Facility.

ABL Facility

As of September 26, 2024, the Company’s ABL Facility had a maximum availability of $800.0 million with actual available borrowings limited to the sum, at the time of calculation, of (a) eligible credit card receivables multiplied by the credit card advance rate, plus (b) the cost of eligible inventory, net of inventory reserves, multiplied by the applicable appraisal percentage, plus (c)85% of eligible net trade receivables, plus (d) all eligible cash on hand, plus (e)100% of the amount for which any eligible letter of credit must be honored after giving effect to any draws, minus certain Availability Reserves (each component as defined in the ABL Facility). The ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit and contains a sublimit of $50.0 million for standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit combined. Available borrowings under the facility are reduced by the face amount of outstanding letters of credit. The Company’s ABL Facility allows for the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the facility by an additional amount up to $200.0 million.

All obligations under the ABL Facility are secured by (1) a first-priority security interest in the cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, and related assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the ABL Facility, with certain exceptions, and (2) a second-priority security interest in substantially all of the other property and assets of Outlets and the other guarantors under the Term Loan Facility.

Based on financial data as of September 26, 2024, net availability under the ABL Facility was $622.3 million as reduced by letters of credit of $37.1 million.

Covenants

The credit agreements governing the Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility contain customary restrictive covenants, which, among other things and with certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness and liens in connection with such indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments, (iii) effect mergers or consolidations, (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates, (v) sell or dispose of property or assets, and (vi) engage in unrelated lines of business. In addition, these credit agreements subject the Company to certain reporting obligations and require that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including, among other things, a requirement that if borrowings under the ABL Facility exceed 90% of availability, the Company will maintain a certain fixed charge coverage ratio (defined as Consolidated EBITDA less non-financed capital expenditures and income taxes paid to consolidated fixed charges, in each case as more fully defined in the ABL Facility).

The Term Loan Facility has no financial maintenance covenants. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreements.

Fair Value of Debt

Market risk associated with the Company’s long-term debt relates to the potential change in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from a change in interest rates. The aggregate fair value of debt is based primarily on the Company’s estimates of interest rates, maturities, credit risk, and underlying collateral. The estimated fair value and classification within the fair value hierarchy of the Term Loan Facility was as follows as of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023:

The Term Loan Facility fair value is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs significant to the valuation, including indicative pricing from counterparties and discounted cash flow methods. No amounts were outstanding under the ABL Facility as of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023.

4. Income Taxes

Effective tax rates for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023 were based on the Company’s forecasted annualized effective tax rates and were adjusted for discrete items that occurred within each period. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 21.8% and 21.1% for the thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, respectively, and 18.4% and 21.5% for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, respectively. For the thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2024, the effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes that were partially offset by tax deductions in excess of book expense related to stock-based compensation awards. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024, the effective income tax rate was lower than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to tax deductions in excess of book expense related to stock-based compensation awards. For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2023, the effective income tax rates were higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes that were partially offset by tax deductions in excess of book expense related to stock-based compensation awards.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The majority of the Company’s long-term operating lease agreements are for its retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office, which expire in various years through 2049. Most of these agreements are retail leases wherein both the land and building are leased. The Company also has ground leases in which only the land is leased. The initial lease terms for the Company's retail locations, distribution centers, and corporate office typically range from 10-20 years. The majority of the Company’s leases also include options to extend, which are factored into the recognition of their respective assets and liabilities when appropriate based on management’s assessment of the probability that the options will be exercised.

When readily determinable, the rate implicit in the lease is used to discount lease payments to present value; however, substantially all of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses a third party to assist in the determination of a secured incremental borrowing rate, determined on a collateralized basis, to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The secured incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on yields obtained from Bloomberg for U.S. consumers with a BB credit rating and is adjusted for collateralization as well as inflation. As of September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, the Company’s weighted average discount rate was 5.8% and 5.7%, respectively. As of both September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term of the Company’s leases was approximately 12 years.

Lease Costs

The table below presents components of lease expense for operating leases.

(1) Includes variable costs for common area maintenance, property taxes, and insurance on leased real estate.

(2) Excludes short-term lease costs, which were immaterial for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023.

Undiscounted Cash Flows

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of September 26, 2024 were as follows:

(1) Future lease payments exclude approximately $449.9 million of legally binding minimum lease payments for operating leases signed but not yet commenced.

(2) Operating lease payments include $255.0 million related to options to extend lease terms that are reasonably certain of being exercised.

For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $157.8 million and $141.7 million, respectively.

Litigation

On November 15, 2021, the Company was added as a defendant in a wrongful death lawsuit, Nguyen v. Inspections Now, Inc., No. 21-DCV-287142, pending in the 434th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas. Bestview International Company and Bestview (Fuzhou) Import & Export Co. LTD are also named as defendants in the case; former defendants Inspections Now, Inc. and Jason Post Homes, LLC have been dismissed. Plaintiff’s petition alleges that “wood paneling” allegedly purchased from the Company was installed in the vicinity of plaintiff’s fireplace and caught fire while the fireplace was lit. The fire consumed plaintiff’s home and resulted in injuries to plaintiff and another occupant and the death of plaintiff’s three children and mother. Plaintiff alleges product defect and failure to warn claims against the Company and product defect, failure to warn, and strict liability claims against the Bestview entities. Plaintiff’s petition seeks damages in excess of $1.0 million for property damage, personal injury, and wrongful death. The petition also seeks exemplary damages. Plaintiff’s ex-husband, brother, and the additional occupant have since intervened as plaintiffs in the lawsuit. Intervenors allege the same claims against the Company and the Bestview entities and collectively seek damages in excess of $11.0 million for property damage, personal injury (as to the other occupant), wrongful death, and exemplary damages. The Company has answered all petitions, denying the allegations. The case is currently set for trial in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

The Company maintains insurance that may cover any liability arising out of the above-referenced litigation up to the policy limits and subject to meeting certain deductibles and to other terms and conditions thereof. Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation proceedings is inherently difficult, particularly where the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages and are in the stages of the proceedings where key factual and legal issues have not been resolved. For these reasons, the Company is currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible losses resulting from the above-referenced litigation.

On June 18, 2020, an alleged stockholder filed a putative derivative complaint, Lincolnshire Police Pension Fund v. Taylor, et al., No. 2020-0487-JTL, in the Delaware Court of Chancery, purportedly on behalf of the Company against certain of the Company’s officers, directors, and stockholders. An amended complaint was filed on September 14, 2022. The Company along with the other defendants filed a motion to dismiss on October 31, 2022. The plaintiffs then filed a second amended complaint on December 22, 2022. On February 6, 2023, the Company, along with the other defendants, filed a motion to dismiss the operative complaint. On December 5, 2023, the Court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss, and the case proceeded to discovery. The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment. The factual allegations underlying these claims are similar to the factual allegations made in the previously dismissed In re Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and restitution for the Company from the individual defendants and the payment of costs and attorneys’ fees. On September 17, 2024, the defendants entered into a Stipulation of Compromise and Settlement (the “Stipulation”) with the plaintiffs, which was filed with the Court on September 17, 2024, setting forth the terms and conditions of a proposed settlement. The settlement provides, among other things, for a full release of the claims that the plaintiffs or any other Company stockholder asserted or could have asserted in the litigation against any of the defendants in exchange for (1) an $8.0 million payment to the Company, net of payment of the fees and expenses of plaintiffs’ counsel, and (2) the Company’s agreement to implement and/or maintain certain corporate governance measures, as more fully described in the Stipulation. The settlement is subject to Court approval, the Court hearing for which is scheduled in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The settlement, if finally approved, will cause the dismissal with prejudice of this litigation.

The Company is also subject to various other legal actions, claims, and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which may include claims related to general liability, workers’ compensation, product liability, intellectual property, and employment-related matters resulting from its business activities. As with most actions such as these, an estimation of any possible and/or ultimate liability cannot always be determined. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. These various other ordinary course proceedings are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, cash flows, or results of operations. Regardless of the outcome, however, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

6. Stock-based Compensation

In accordance with ASC 718, the Company measures compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognizes compensation expense, net of forfeitures, using the straight-line method over the requisite service period of awards expected to vest, which for each of the awards is the service vesting period.

The table below presents components of stock-based compensation expense within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income:

Stock Options

The table below summarizes stock option activity for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024:

Restricted Stock Units

The Company periodically grants restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that represent an unfunded, unsecured right to receive a share of the Company’s Class A common stock upon vesting. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees, executive officers, and non-employee directors comprised of service-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs. Service-based RSUs vest based on the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. The performance-based RSUs cliff vest based on (i) the Company’s achievement of predetermined financial metrics at the end of athree-year performance period and (ii) the grantee’s continued service through the vesting date. Depending on the extent to which the relevant performance goals are achieved, the number of common shares earned upon vesting may range from 0% to 200% of the award granted. The Company assesses the probability of achieving all performance goals on a quarterly basis. The service period for RSUs granted during the period varies by grantee and isone year from the grant date for non-employee directors and ranges betweentwo tofour years from the grant date for employees and executive officers.

The following table summarizes restricted stock unit activity during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024:

The aggregate fair value for all restricted stock units granted during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 was $33.9 million. The grant-date fair value of service-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant.

Restricted Stock Awards

The following table summarizes restricted stock award activity during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024:

(1) The performance-based and total shareholder return restricted stock awards that vested during the period were issued at 100% of target based on achievement of the predetermined performance and total shareholder return criteria as specified in the underlying grant agreements.

7. Earnings Per Share

Net Income per Common Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards using the treasury stock method.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented:

The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of their anti-dilutive effect:

8. Fair Value Measurements

As of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023, the Company had certain financial assets and liabilities on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. The estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their respective carrying values as reported within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 3, “Debt” for discussion of the fair value of the Company’s debt.

Contingent Earn-out Liabilities

As of September 26, 2024, the contingent earn-out liabilities had an aggregate estimated fair value of $4.5 million, of which $3.4 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $1.1 million is included in other liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s contingent earn-out liabilities are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs that are significant to their respective valuations. The table below summarizes changes in contingent earn-out liabilities during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024:

The $0.9 million net decrease in the fair value of contingent earn-out liabilities during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 was recognized in general and administrative expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Interest Rate Cap Contracts

Changes in interest rates impact the Company’s results of operations. In an effort to manage exposure to this risk, the Company enters into derivative contracts and may adjust its derivative portfolio as market conditions change.

As of September 26, 2024, the Company’s outstanding interest rate cap contract was designated as a cash flow hedge. The contract has a notional value of $150.0 million and effectively caps SOFR-based interest payments on a portion of the Company’s Term Loan Facility at 5.50% beginning in May 2024 and will continue until the agreement expires in April 2026. The Company’stwo interest cap agreements outstanding at December 28, 2023, each with a notional value of $75.0 million, expired in April 2024. The effective portion of the gain or loss on effective cash flow hedges is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The effective portion of the derivative represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in fair value of the hedged item. To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company’s outstanding interest rate cap contracts as of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023 were valued primarily using Level 2 inputs based on data readily observable in public markets. The Company’s interest rate cap contracts were negotiated with counterparties without going through a public exchange. Accordingly, the Company’s fair value assessments for these derivative contracts gave consideration to the risk of counterparty default as well as the Company’s own credit risk. As of September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023, the total fair value of the Company’s interest rate cap contracts was approximately $0.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively, which are presented as a component of AOCI within stockholders’ equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of tax of $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. No interest income was reclassified from AOCI into earnings related to the interest rate cap contracts during the thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2024 compared to $1.4 million of interest income reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2023. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2024 and September 28, 2023, the Company reclassified $1.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively, of interest income from AOCI into earnings related to the interest rate cap contracts.

9. Supply Chain Finance

The Company facilitates supply chain finance programs through financial intermediaries, which provide certain suppliers the option to be paid by the financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. When a supplier utilizes one of the supply chain finance programs and receives an early payment from a financial intermediary, the supplier takes a discount on the invoice. The Company then pays the financial intermediary the full amount of the invoice on the original due date. The Company does not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur for participation in the program. Supplier participation is voluntary, and there are no assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees provided for the committed payment to the financial intermediaries. As a result, all amounts owed to the financial intermediaries are presented as trade accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts due to the financial intermediaries reflected intrade accounts payable at September 26, 2024 and December 28, 2023 were $168.1 million and $114.0 million, respectively.
