In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new guidance is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new lease guidance is effective for UNIFI’s fiscal 2020.

Upon adoption, UNIFI expects to make an accounting policy election to not reflect leases with an initial term of 12 months or less in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, recognizing those respective lease payments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. UNIFI also plans to elect the package of transition practical expedients which would allow UNIFI to carry forward prior conclusions related to: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are leases or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases. UNIFI does not expect to elect the hindsight practical expedient.

UNIFI continues to assess the effect the guidance will have on its existing accounting policies and the Consolidated Financial Statements, and upon adoption, expects there will be approximately a 1% increase in total assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities.

Under the guidance in the SEC Staff Announcement on July 20, 2017 relating to the transition to ASU No. 2016-02, due to its status as a significant subsidiary of Unifi, Inc., PAL expects to adopt the new lease guidance in its fiscal 2020. PAL is currently evaluating the impact of the new lease guidance.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Subsequent ASUs were issued to provide clarity and defer the effective date of the new guidance. The new revenue recognition guidance (the “New Revenue Recognition Guidance”) eliminated the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under previous GAAP and replaced it with a principles-based approach.

Upon adoption in fiscal 2019, UNIFI determined that the impact of the New Revenue Recognition Guidance is immaterial. Accordingly, UNIFI utilized the modified retrospective method of adoption and recorded the impact of open contracts as of June 24, 2018 as an adjustment to the opening balance of fiscal 2019 retained earnings, and prior period balances are not adjusted. Details of the fiscal 2019 adjustment follow. See Note 4, “Revenue Recognition,” for further detail regarding adoption and additional disclosures.

Revenue earned in fourth quarter fiscal 2018 related to contracts open at June 24, 2018	$	8,593
Less associated cost of sales		7,992
Less associated income tax		142
Adjustment to retained earnings for contracts open at June 24, 2018	$	459

Under the guidance in the SEC Staff Announcement on July 20, 2017 relating to the transition to ASU No. 2014-09, due to its status as a significant subsidiary of Unifi, Inc., PAL expects to adopt the New Revenue Recognition Guidance in its fiscal 2019. PAL is currently evaluating the impact of the New Revenue Recognition Guidance.

Based on UNIFI’s review of ASUs issued since the filing of the 2018 Form 10-K, there have been no other newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have had, or are expected to have, a significant impact on UNIFI’s consolidated financial statements.
