“Leases (Topic
842
),” a new standard related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the amendments is the recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. Under the new standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard requires a modified retrospective transition for capital or operating leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, but it does
not
require transition accounting for leases that expire prior to the date of initial application. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after
December 15, 2018,
with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this new standard on
January 1, 2019
resulted in assets of
$9.7
million recorded as Operating Right of Use Assets, net, and additional lease liabilities of
$9.8
million.  The Company also recorded an adjustment to retained earnings resulting from the cumulative effect of the change in accounting of (
$0.1
) million.  See Note
9
for further information.

eliminates the
second
step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value,
not
to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard, which should be applied prospectively, is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning on or after
December 15, 2019.
Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard could have on our consolidated financial statements.

Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. The standard requires a financial asset (including trade receivables) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Thus, the income statement will reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly-recognized financial assets as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2019
with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard could have on our consolidated financial statements.
