The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements and expected impact on our financial statements:

Recently adopted:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) 2016-13, June 2016, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

 

This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates.

 

This ASU also applies to how the Company evaluates impairments of any available-for-sale debt securities and any non-operating lease receivables arising from leases classified as sales-type or direct finance leases.

 

January 2020

 

The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of this standard, which resulted in changes in evaluating impairment of its available-for-sale debt securities.  Declines in fair value below amortized cost resulting from credit related factors will be reflected in earnings, within Net investment income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.  Changes in value from market related factors continue to be recognized in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

 

The Company’s investments in available-for-sale debt securities are invested in investment grade quality holdings or U.S. government backed securities, and are well diversified.  During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company did not recognize any allowance for credit loss.

 

Additionally, the Company’s non-operating lease receivables experienced no credit losses during the year ended December 31, 2020, and the Company has no other financial instruments, such as lease receivables arising from sales-type or direct finance leases, subject to this ASU.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ASU 2018-19, November 2018: Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

 

This ASU clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20.  Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases.

 

January 2020

 

The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of this standard with no additional changes in its accounting for operating leases and related receivables.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ASU 2018-13, August 2018: Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement

 

This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements within the scope of Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, including the removal and modification of certain existing disclosures, and the additional of new disclosures.

 

January 2020

 

The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of this new standard.  The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured to fair value requiring modified disclosures at December 31, 2020.  See note 11 for fair value disclosures

ASU 2018-15, August 2018, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract

 

The amendments in this ASU align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The ASU provides further clarification of the appropriate presentation of capitalized costs, the period over which to recognize the expense, the presentation within the Statements of Operations and Statements of Cash Flows, and the disclosure requirements.

 

January 2020

 

The Company has completed its evaluation and adoption of this standard.  Qualifying implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract are no longer expensed as incurred but rather are deferred within Other assets and amortized to earnings, within General and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, over the term of the arrangement.  Cash flows attributable to the service arrangements, including implementation thereof, are reflected as Operating cash flows within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting

 

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives, and other contracts.   The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur.

 

March 2020 through December 31, 2022

 

The Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives.  Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation.  As additional index changes in the market occur, the Company will evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable.

ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes

 

The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740, Income Taxes, and also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.  

 

Notable changes of potential impact include income-based franchise taxes and interim period recognition of enacted changes in tax laws or rates.

 

January 2021

 

The Company has evaluated this update and determined it will not have a material impact to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or related footnote disclosures.
