3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies, which are disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the notes thereto are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2019.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of costs and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases estimates and assumptions on historical experience when available and on various factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 and its related amendments (collectively known as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842) using the prospective method, effective on January 1, 2019. See Note 5 “Leases” for the required disclosures related to the impact of adopting this standard and a discussion of the Company’s updated policies related to leases. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, and it did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated balance sheet, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss or condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
