Accounting Standards Adopted in Fiscal 2019

Accounting Standards adopted in Fiscal 2019

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases,” which, together with its related clarifying ASUs, provides revised guidance for lease accounting and related disclosure requirements and establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Under the guidance, leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. We adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method which was applied to leases that existed or were entered into on or after January 1, 2019.  The Company elected to utilize the package of practical expedients that allows us to 1) not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, 2) retain the existing classification of lease contracts as of the date of adoption, and 3) not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. We also elected to not separate lease and non-lease components, for all leases. The adoption of this standard had a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet due to the recognition of ROU assets and liabilities for our operating leases totaling $13.3 million, as well as an adjustment to beginning equity of $4.6 million, net of tax, related to prior sales lease back transaction. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our statement of income or liquidity. See Note 12 – Leases for disclosures related to the amended guidance.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” This guidance expands an entity’s ability to apply hedge accounting for nonfinancial and financial risk components and allows for a simplified approach for fair value hedging of interest rate risk. Additionally, this ASU eliminates the need to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2019 and applied the modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to retained earnings as of the effective date. The impact of the adoption of this ASU was not material.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans,” that makes minor changes to the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension and/or other postretirement benefit plans. The new guidance eliminates requirements for certain disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial and requires new ones that the FASB considers pertinent. ASU 2018-14 is effective for the Company January 1, 2021. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-14 on its consolidated financial statements.
