Accounting Changes

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU No. 2014-09”), which introduced new guidance that established how an entity should measure revenue in connection with its sale of goods and services to a customer based on the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for each of those goods and services. On October 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2014-09 using the modified retrospective transition method. Additionally, in connection with the adoption, we designed changes to our internal control procedures and updated processes to ensure appropriate recognition and presentation of financial information. This adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or on our internal controls over financial reporting. We do not believe that the adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements on an ongoing basis. The comparative periods continue to be presented under the accounting standards in effect during those periods.

In connection with the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09, we now present our sales returns allowance on a gross basis rather than a net liability basis. As such, we recognize a return asset from the right to recover merchandise from customers (included in other current assets) and a return liability from the amount to be returned to the customer (included in accrued liabilities) within our consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, we now recognize revenue for our gift cards not expected to be redeemed (“gift card breakage”) within revenue in our consolidated statements of earnings.

The following tables set forth the impact of adopting this standard on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019 and our condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019 (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which will require most leases to be reported on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Under the new guidance, the lease liability must be measured initially based on the present value of future lease payments, subject to certain conditions. The right-of-use asset must be measured initially based on the amount of the liability, plus certain initial direct costs. The new guidance further requires that leases be classified at inception as either (a) operating leases or (b) finance leases. For operating leases, periodic expense will generally be flat (straight-line) throughout the life of the lease. For finance leases, periodic expense will decline (similar to capital leases under prior rules) over the life of the lease. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method, but companies can adopt using the effective date method or the comparative method. For public companies, this standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt this pronouncement on October 1, 2019 using the effective date method.

We have completed a preliminary assessment of the potential impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2019, adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 would have resulted in recognition of a right-of-use asset in the estimated amount of approximately $525.0 million and a lease liability for a similar amount on our consolidated balance sheet. We are currently in the final stages of implementing changes to our processes, controls and systems and expect to be compliant upon required adoption of the new standard. We do not believe adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. The amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability we ultimately recognize may materially differ from this preliminary estimate, including as a result of future organic growth in our business, changes in interest rates, and potential acquisitions.
