⁽¹⁾

Adjustments to other current assets and other current liabilities for $2,525 relates to the presentation as a receivable the component of the allowance for sales returns representing the federal excise tax refunds expected for future returned product as a receivable in other current assets, which was previously presented as a reduction to the allowance for sales returns liability in other current liabilities.


⁽²⁾	Adjustments of $4,514 to accounts receivable and $3,139 to other current liabilities relate to commission receivables and commissions payable from the Real Estate commercial leasing contracts for which the performance obligation has been satisfied, have extended payment terms and are expected to be received and paid in the next twelve-months.


⁽³⁾	Adjustments of $623 to other current assets and $3,740 to other assets represents the current and noncurrent portions, respectively, of deferred contract costs relating to direct fulfillment costs incurred in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations for Development Marketing arrangements.


⁽⁴⁾	Adjustments of $4,667 to other current liabilities and $27,983 to other liabilities relate to the current and long term portions, respectively, of contract liabilities representing payments received from customers in advance of the performance obligations being satisfied under contracts for Real Estate development marketing.


⁽⁵⁾	Adjustment reflects the tax effect of the adoption of Topic 606 which was estimated to result in a decrease in net deferred income tax liability of $5,217 based on a recalculation of the income tax provision using the Company’s deferred rate of approximately 27.26%.


⁽⁶⁾	The allocation of the net impact of the adoption of Topic 606 between accumulated deficit and non-controlling interest is based on relative ownership interest of 70.59% and 29.41%, respectively.

⁽¹⁾

The impact to revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was an increase of $2,525 primarily due to $8,428 in revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied in the current period for a significant number of property sale closings that occurred in the Real Estate Development Marketing business, offset by $5,454 in advance commission and reimbursable services payments received in the current period that are deferred since they do not constitute satisfied performance obligations under Topic 606. Commission payments for these businesses would have been previously recognized as revenue upon receipt. Additionally, certain incentive payments to customers of the Tobacco business, approximating $574 for the period, that were previously classified as operating, selling, administrative and general expenses are now classified as a reduction in revenue under Topic 606. Also, the change in federal excise tax receivable component of the sales returns reserve, approximating $100 for the period, that was previously presented as a net impact to cost of sales of the Tobacco business is now presented on a gross basis as an adjustment to revenue.


⁽²⁾	The impact to cost of sales was an increase of $1,669 primarily related to the reclassification of $1,639 of Tobacco shipping and handling costs from operating, selling, administrative and general expenses to costs of sales as a result of adopting Topic 606.


⁽³⁾	The impact to operating, selling, administrative and general expenses was a decrease of $2,384 primarily due to:


•	The reclassification of $1,639 Tobacco shipping and handling costs to cost of sales,


•	The reclassification of $574 incentive payments to customers to revenue for the Tobacco business,


⁽⁴⁾	The net impact of the adoption of Topic 606 was estimated to result in an increase in income taxes of $946 based on a recalculation of the income tax provision using the estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 35.49% and the Company’s deferred rate approximately 27.26%.

⁽¹⁾

The impact to revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was a decrease of $5,987 primarily due to $3,973 of commission revenue payments received in the current period for the Real Estate Commercial Leasing business relating to performance obligations satisfied and accrued for in prior periods under Topic 606, and $15,551 in advance commission and reimbursable services payments received in the current period for the Real Estate Development Marketing business that are deferred since they do not constitute satisfied performance obligations under Topic 606. These decreases were offset by $14,697 in revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied in the current period. Commission payments for these businesses would have been previously recognized as revenue upon receipt. Additionally, certain incentive payments to customers of the Tobacco business, approximating $1,594 for the period, that were previously classified as operating, selling, administrative and general expenses are now classified as a reduction in revenue under Topic 606. Also, the change in federal excise tax receivable component of the sales returns reserve, approximating $436 for the period, that was previously presented as a net impact to cost of sales of the Tobacco business is now presented on a gross basis as an adjustment to revenue.

⁽²⁾

The impact to cost of sales was an increase of $2,901 primarily related to the reclassification of $4,309 of Tobacco shipping and handling costs from operating, selling, administrative and general expenses to costs of sales as a result of adopting Topic 606, offset by a $1,844 decrease from the Real Estate business related primarily to commission expense payments made in the current period that relate to performance obligations satisfied and accrued for in prior periods or deferred until the performance obligation is satisfied.


⁽³⁾	The impact to operating, selling, administrative and general expenses was a decrease of $7,033 primarily due to:


•	The reclassification of $4,309 Tobacco shipping and handling costs to cost of sales,


•	The reclassification of $1,594 incentive payments to customers to revenue for the Tobacco business,


•	The deferral of $2,547 of direct costs in the Real Estate Development Marketing business related to performance obligations not satisfied as discussed above, offset by the amortization of previously deferred contract costs of $998.


•	The reclassification of $419 of reimbursable service payments to revenue related to the Real Estate Development Marketing business.


⁽⁴⁾	The net impact of the adoption of Topic 606 was estimated to result in an increase in income taxes of $465 based on a recalculation of the income tax provision using the estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 35.49% and the Company’s deferred rate approximately 27.26%.
