Significant Accounting Policies

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Significant Accounting Policies:  The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1, Significant Accounting Policies, in the 2018 Form 10-K and are supplemented by the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2018 Form 10-K. Refer to Note 11, Leases, for the updated policies related to the implementation of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).

 

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements: From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU"). Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and has subsequently issued several supplemental and/or clarifying ASUs (collectively known as “ASC 842”). The guidance requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with terms of more than 12 months. ASC 842 also requires disclosures designed to give financial statement users information on the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative information. The Company adopted ASC 842 and applicable amendments on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. The Company elected certain practical expedients and established internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption.

The adoption of the standard had an effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets but did not have an effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated income statements. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. Please refer to Note 11 for additional discussion.

Cumulative Effect of Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:

Fair Value Measurements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. ASU 2018-13 is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Financial Instruments. In June 2016, The FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). This ASU changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements.
