Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation

During the first quarter of 2016, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09). As a result of adoption, we recognized $18 million of excess tax benefits related to share-based payments in our provision for income taxes for the nine months ended October 29, 2016. These items were historically recorded in additional paid-in capital. In addition, for each period presented, cash flows related to excess tax benefits are classified as an operating activity along with other income tax cash flows. Cash paid on employees' behalf related to shares withheld for tax purposes is classified as a financing activity. Retrospective application of the cash flow presentation resulted in increases to both net cash provided by operations and net cash required for financing activities of $79 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2015. Compensation expense each period continues to reflect estimated forfeitures.
