Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”), which provides new comprehensive lease accounting guidance that supersedes previous lease guidance. The objective of this ASU is to establish the principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. Criteria for distinguishing between finance and operating leases are substantially similar to criteria for distinguishing between capital and operating leases in previous lease guidance. Lease agreements that are 12 months or less are permitted to be excluded from the balance sheet. In addition, this ASU expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 on August 4, 2019, the effective and initial application date, using the additional transition method under ASU 2018-11, which allows for a cumulative effect adjustment within retained earnings in the period of adoption. In addition, the Company elected the “package of three” practical expedients which allows companies to not reassess whether arrangements contain leases, the classification of leases, and the capitalization of initial direct costs. The impact of the adoption to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets includes the recognition of operating lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets of approximately the same amount based on the present value of the remaining lease payments for existing operating leases. The difference between the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities recognized is primarily related to adjustments to prepaid rent, deferred rent, lease intangible assets/liabilities, and closed property reserves. In addition, the adoption of the standard resulted in the derecognition of existing property and equipment for certain properties that did not previously qualify for sale accounting because the Company was determined to be the accounting owner during the construction phase and did not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting upon completion of the construction. At the transition date, the Company was constructing one facility, which was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company exercised a purchase option for the facility in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, which resulted in the Company continuing to account for the facility as its accounting owner. For properties where the Company was deemed the accounting owner during construction for which construction has been completed, the difference between the assets and liabilities derecognized, net of the deferred tax impact, was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. Lessor accounting guidance remained largely unchanged from previous guidance. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company has revised its accounting policies, processes and controls, and systems as applicable to comply with the provisions and disclosure requirements of the standard.

The effects of the changes, including those discussed above, made to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 3, 2019 for the adoption of the new lease guidance were as follows (in thousands):

In October 2018, the FASB issued authoritative guidance under ASU No. 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. This ASU adds the Overnight Index Swap (OIS) rate based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as a benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes. This ASU is effective for public companies with interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, which for the Company was the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 with no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as LIBOR is still being used as a benchmark interest rate.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The adoption of this ASU had no impact to Accumulated other comprehensive loss or Retained earnings.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825. This ASU clarifies the accounting treatment for the measurement of credit losses under ASC 236 and provides further clarification on previously issued updates including ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities and ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Since the Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, the amendments in ASU 2019-04 related to clarifications on Accounting for Hedging Activities have been adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company adopted the relevant portions of this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 with no impact to Accumulated other comprehensive loss or Retained earnings for fiscal 2020, as the Company did not have separately measured ineffectiveness related to its cash flow hedges. The remaining amendments within ASU 2019-04 pertaining to ASC 326 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, which for the Company is the first quarter of fiscal 2021 (see Topic 326 below).

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference rate reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The Company adopted this ASU in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, which is effective on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Optional expedients elected from Topic 848 are effective until superseded by subsequent documentation or December 31, 2022, whichever occurs first.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software: Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-05 requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements (i.e., hosting arrangements) to be capitalized under the same premises of authoritative guidance for internal-use software, and deferred over the noncancellable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any option renewal periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or for which the exercise is controlled by the service provider. The Company is required to adopt this new guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The Company has outstanding cloud computing arrangements and continues to incur costs that it believes would be required to be capitalized under ASU 2018-05. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard. Adopting the standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General: Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 eliminates requirements for certain disclosures and requires additional disclosures under defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. The Company is required to adopt this guidance in fiscal 2021. The Company is currently reviewing the provisions of the new standard and evaluating its impact on the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, and ASU 2019-11 (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, guarantees and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that will replace the current “incurred loss” model and generally will result in the earlier recognition of credit losses. The Company is required to adopt this new guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 on a modified-retrospective basis as required by the standard by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the statements of financial position and stockholders’ equity as of the effective date. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard; established revised processes and controls to estimate expected losses for trade and other receivables, guarantees and other instruments. Adopting the standard will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 eliminates certain exceptions to Topic 740’s general principles. The amendments also improve consistent application and simplifies its application. The Company is required to adopt this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company is currently reviewing the provisions of the new standard and evaluating its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
