SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act). Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) requires that the company recognize the effects of changes in tax laws or tax rates in the financial statements for the period in which such changes were enacted. Among other things, changes in tax laws or tax rates can affect the amount of taxes payable for the current period, as well as the amount and timing of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets. The Company is a fiscal year reporting company, because the 2017 Tax Act became law in December 2017, and as such would be required to account for the impacts related to the 2017 Tax Act in the financial statements included in their annual report on Form 10-K for August 31, 2018 due in November 2018. The Company has elected to take advantage of the extended measurement period provided by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, and will report the effect of the changes from the 2017 Tax Act when the calculations are complete, or reasonable estimates can be determined. The Company has begun the process of analysis of the 2017 Tax Act and will recognize the effect of the changes in tax laws or rates in the period that the process has been completed.
