New Accounting Pronouncements

(a) Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income," which allows companies to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings, any stranded tax effects resulting from complying with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation passed in December 2017. ASU 2018-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company implemented the provisions of this ASU effective January 1, 2019, with no impact to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as due to the Company's valuation allowance, there is no net tax effect stranded within accumulated other comprehensive loss.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, "Codification Improvements," which made clarifications, correction of errors and minor improvements to ASC 220, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Overall," ASC 470-50, "Debt Modifications and Extinguishments," ASC 480-10, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity -Overall," ASC 718-740, "Compensation - Stock Compensation - Income Taxes," ASC 805-740, "Business Combinations - Income Taxes," ASC 815-10, "Derivatives and Hedging - Overall," ASC 820-10, "Fair Value Measurement - Overall," ASC 940-405, "Financial Services - Brokers and Dealers - Liabilities," and ASC 962-325, "Plan Accounting - Defined Contribution to Pension Plans - Investments - Other." The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019, with no significant impact to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as the transactions it conducts that qualify under ASU 2018-09 are only impacted by the amendments to ASC 718-740.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-16, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes." The amendments in this standard permit use of the Overnight Index Swap rate based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under ASC

815. ASU 2018-16 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019, with no impact to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as the benchmark interest rate on its existing debt facility and interest rate swap is LIBOR.

In January 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, "Leases (Topic 842) - Codification Improvements." The amendments in this standard provide implementation guidance with regards to determining the fair value of an underlying leased asset by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, presentation of cash received from leases by lessors in sales-type or direct financing leases on the statement of cash flows and transition disclosures related to ASC 250, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections." The amendments in this standard are effective January 1, 2020, except for those related to transition disclosures that are effective immediately on January 1, 2019. Early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019 with no impact to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as the Company does not have any leases for which lessor accounting is applied under ASC 842.

(b) Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," which introduces a new impairment model for financial instruments that is based on expected credit losses rather than incurred credit losses. The new impairment model applies to most financial assets, including trade accounts receivable and lease receivables. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses," which clarified that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of ASC 326-20, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses-Measured at Amortized Cost," and should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 842. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments," which clarified certain amendments related to ASU 2016-13. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief," which clarifies certain aspects of the amendments in ASU 2016-13. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815, and Leases (Topic 842) and ASU 2019-11 Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses.

The Company adopted these new standards effective January 1, 2020. The Company is finalizing its assessment related to its trade accounts receivable based on a risk assessed portfolio approach, incorporating current and forecasted economic conditions as of January 1, 2020. The Company continues to finalize its estimated credit losses and establish processes and internal controls that may be required to comply with the new credit loss standard and related disclosure requirements. The Company does not expect the adoption of these standards to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." This standard removed, modified and added disclosure requirements from ASC 820. ASU 2018-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, as this standard primarily addresses disclosure requirements for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company does not currently have or anticipate having Level 3 fair value instruments.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract." The amendments in this standard aligned 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). ASU 2018-15 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606." The amendments in this standard clarified that certain

transactions should be accounted for under ASC 606 if one of the collaborative arrangement participants meets the definition of a customer and that transactions between collaborative participants not directly related to sales to third parties should not be recognized as revenue under Topic 606, if one of the collaborative arrangement participants is not a customer. ASU 2018-18 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-07, "Codification Updates to SEC Sections—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, and Nos. 33-10231 and 33-10442, Investment Company Reporting Modernization, and Miscellaneous Updates (SEC Update)". The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-08, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Codification Improvements - Share-Based Consideration Payable to a Customer". ASU 2019-08 expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to provide guidance for share-based payment awards granted to a customer in conjunction with selling goods or services accounted for under Topic 606. For entities that have adopted the amendments in ASU 2018-07, the amendments in ASU 2019-08 are effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity may early adopt the amendments in ASU 2019-08, but not before it adopts the amendments in ASU 2018-07. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on its consolidated and combined financial statements, as the Company has only issued shares to employees or nonemployee directors and has previously recognized its nonemployee directors share-based payments in line with its recognition of share-based payments to employees, using the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued, amortized over the requisite service period.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect ASU 2019-12 to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures.
