Changes in Accounting Policies

 

In February 2016, the accounting guidance was modified to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The new guidance was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2019. The Company implemented the new leasing guidance using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the period of adoption with a cumulative-effect adjustment to its accumulated deficit. Refer to Note 4, Leases, for additional information.

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company voluntarily changed the date of its annual broadcasting license and goodwill impairment test dates from April 1 to December 1. This change represents a change in method of applying an accounting principle. Refer to Note 5, Intangible Assets And Goodwill, for additional information.
