2.	New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2017, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that requires employers to report the service cost component separate from the other components of net benefit pension and postretirement costs. The employer is required to report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside the subtotal of income from operations. Only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and requires retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March, April, and May of 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. The amendments clarify the guidance for identifying performance obligations, licensing arrangements and principal versus agent considerations. The amendments additionally provide clarification on how to assess collectability, present sales tax, treat noncash consideration, and account for completed and modified contracts at the time of transition. The guidance is effective for annual periods, including interim reporting periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and allows companies to apply the requirements retrospectively, either to all prior periods presented or through a cumulative adjustment in the year of adoption. The new standard will be effective for the Company at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2018. The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new lease accounting guidance, requiring lessees to recognize right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases previously classified as operating leases, with a term greater than a year. The new guidance also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and requires a modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of the guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

There have been no other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the Company which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
