Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its variable interest entity ("VIE"). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. For a more complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and business practices, refer to the consolidated annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2019. The results of operations for three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full fiscal year. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, and condensed consolidated statement of equity as of March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018. All such adjustments represent normal recurring items.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Leases. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) as modified by subsequently issued ASUs 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11 and 2018-20. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019. We have elected to apply the current period transition approach as introduced by ASU 2018-11 for our transition at January 1, 2019 and we have elected to apply several of the practical expedients in conjunction with accounting policy elections.

Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract based on a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) that requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements (CCAs) to be deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement, if those costs would be capitalized by the customer in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software”. The ASU does not affect the accounting by cloud service providers, other software vendors or customers’ accounting for software licensing arrangements. The ASU will require companies to recognize deferred implementation costs to expense over the ‘term of the hosting arrangement’. Under the ASU, the term of the hosting arrangement comprises the noncancellable period of the CCA plus any optional renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or for which exercise of the option is controlled by the vendor. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and we will continue to assess the standard and make a determination later.

Fair Value Measurement. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13: Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of its disclosure framework project. Entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but public companies will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, but entities are permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the disclosure requirements. The new standard will not have an impact on our results of operations, but it will significantly modify our disclosures around fair value measurements.

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current US GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The update is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the guidance will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Leases

LEASES

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) which was modified by subsequently issued ASUs 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11 and 2018-20. The update requires organizations that lease assets ("lessees") to recognize the assets and liabilities of the rights and obligations created by leases with terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee remains dependent on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The criteria for determining whether a lease is a finance or operating lease was not significantly changed by this ASU. The ASU also requires additional disclosure of the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. This pronouncement was effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements (Topic 842). ASU 2018-11 provided additional relief in the comparative reporting requirements for initial adoption of ASC 842. Prior to ASU 2018-11, a modified retrospective transition was required for financing or operating leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. ASU 2018-11 provided an additional transition method to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption without adjustment to the financial statements for periods prior to adoption.

The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019. We elected to apply the current period transition approach as introduced by ASU 2018-11 for our transition at January 1, 2019 and we elected to apply the following practical expedients and accounting policy decisions.

We elected a package of transition expedients that allowed us to forgo reassessing certain conclusions reached under ASC 840 which must be elected together. All expedients in this package were applied together for all leases that commenced before the effective date, January 1, 2019, of ASC 842. As a result, in transitioning to ASC 842, for existing leases as of 1/1/2019, we continued to use judgments made under ASC 840 related to embedded leases, lease classification and accounting for initial direct costs. We generally have four classes of leased assets : Real Estate related properties (such as office space, warehouses, distribution centers and land), Automobiles, Office Equipment and Manufacturing Equipment and do not utilize finance leases.

In addition, we have chosen, as an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset, not to separate nonlease components from the associated lease for all of our leased asset classes, except for Real Estate related leases. As a result, for classes of Automobiles, Office Equipment and Manufacturing Equipment, we account for each separate lease component and the nonlease components associated with that lease as a single lease component.

For short-term leases as defined under ASC 842, we elected the short-term lease exception pursuant to ASC 842 to all classes of our leased assets. We do not recognize a lease liability or a right of use asset on our consolidated balance sheets for our leased assets with an original lease term of twelve months or less. Instead, we recognize the lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred and disclose in the notes to the consolidated financial statements our short-term lease expense.

The new standard did have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets related to recording right-of-use assets and the corresponding lease liabilities for our inventory of operating leases. In January 2019, we recorded a ROU Asset and total lease liability obligations of approximately $72 million, each. The new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations and had no impact on cash flows.

We lease office space, warehouses, land, automobiles, and office and manufacturing equipment. All of our leases are classified as operating leases.

Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 month to 12 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 14 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Our lease agreements do not include options to purchase the leased property.
