The following table provides a brief description of newly adopted accounting pronouncements and their effect on our consolidated financial statements:



Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting	This update clarifies guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting.	January 1, 2018	The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will apply the guidance to any future modifications of share-based compensation awards.
ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20)	This update amends existing guidance in order to provide consistency in accounting for the derecognition of a nonfinancial asset.	January 1, 2018	We did not record any cumulative adjustment in connection with the adoption of the new pronouncement. We determined that these changes did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350)	This update amends existing guidance in order to simplify impairment testing for goodwill. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2021, but early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2018	We elected to adopt this standard as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230); ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)	These updates address the presentation of eight specific cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows, as well as clarify the classification and presentation of restricted cash on the statement of cash flows.	January 1, 2018	We adopted these ASUs by applying a retrospective transition method which requires a restatement of our consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented.
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)	This update outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it also applies to certain other transactions such as the sale of real estate or equipment. Expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures are also required for contracts subject to ASU 2014-09.	January 1, 2018	Our revenue-producing contracts are primarily leases that are not within the scope of this standard. As a result, the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our rental or reimbursement revenue. However, the standard does apply to a majority of our fees and management income. We have evaluated the impact of this standard on our fees and management income; it did not have a material impact on our revenue recognition, but we have provided additional disclosures around fees and management revenue. We adopted this guidance on a modified retrospective basis.

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements:



Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)	This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project. Early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2020	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of these standards will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting	The amendments in this update expand the scope of Topic 718: Compensation—Stock Compensation to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees, except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost (that is, the period of time over which share-based payment awards vest and the pattern of cost recognition over that period). This update is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2019	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments	The amendments in this update replace 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 update is effective for public entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted after December 15, 2018.	January 1, 2020	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and

These updates amend existing guidance by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date.

January 1, 2019

We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of these standards will have on our consolidated financial statements. We have identified areas within our accounting policies we believe could be impacted by the new standard. This standard impacts the lessor’s ability to capitalize certain costs related to leasing, which will result in a reduction in the amount of execution costs currently being capitalized in connection with leasing activities and an increase to our Property Operating expenses. The standard will also require new disclosures within the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.

We expect to adopt the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. By adopting these practical expedients, we will not be required to reassess (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for existing leases; and (iii) whether the costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. This allows us to continue to account for our leases where we are the lessee as operating leases, however, any new or renewed leases may be classified as financing leases. We currently have fewer than 50 leases of this type. We also expect to recognize right of use assets and lease liability on our consolidated balance sheets related to certain leases where we are the lessee.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11. The update allows lessors to use a practical expedient to account for non-lease components and related lease components as a single lease component instead of accounting for them separately, if certain conditions are met. We expect to utilize this practical expedient.

We will continue to evaluate the effect the adoption of these ASUs will have on our consolidated financial statements. However, we currently believe that the adoption will not have a material impact for operating leases where we are a lessor and will continue to record revenues from rental properties for our operating leases on a straight-line basis. We are still evaluating the impact for leases where we are the lessee.
