SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:	NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF LEASES STANDARD The Company has adopted FASB ASC 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019, applying the transition approach which permits it to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, the financial statements for prior periods were not modified. At the date of adoption, the Company assessed that the adoption of the new leases standard resulted in the recognition of right of use assets and lease obligations of approximately $1,115.9 million, which was recorded in the Company’s balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. During 2018, the Company developed an implementation plan with a cross-functional team, which performed a completeness assessment over the lease contracts of the Company, established new policies, procedures and internal controls related to the new standard. As result of its analysis, the Company has concluded that all of its existing lease contracts at January 1, 2019, have been classified as operating lease contracts. Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease recognition exemption (short-term lease practical expedient) by class of underlying asset (which results in off-balance-sheet accounting for the lease). The new standard had a material impact on the Company’s balance sheet, but did not have a material impact on its income statement and had no impact on cash flows.

Leases - The Company adopted FASB ASC 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019. The Company determined if a contract is or contained a lease at its inception. The Company evaluated if a contract gave the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of an identified asset and the right to direct the use of the asset, in order to determine if a contract contained a lease. All of the Company’s existing lease contracts are operating lease contracts. For these leases, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and the corresponding operating lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation by the Company to make lease payments which arise from the lease. Lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the inception date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease contracts do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the inception date in order to determine the present value of lease payments. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, in the cost of sales and operating expenses.

Leases -

The Company adopted FASB ASC 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019. The Company determined if a contract is or contained a lease at its inception.

All of the Company’s existing lease contracts are operating lease contracts. For these leases, the Company recognized right-of-use assets and the corresponding operating lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation by the Company to make lease payments which arise from the lease.
