Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs providing further revenue recognition guidance (collectively, “Topic 606”). Topic 606 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenues and costs related to obtaining and fulfilling customer contracts, with the objective of improving financial reporting. The core principle of Topic 606 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Topic 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle, and more judgment and estimates may be required under Topic 606 than are currently required under generally accepted accounting principles. The two permitted transition methods under Topic 606 are (i) the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of adoption. The Company intends to use the modified retrospective transition method upon adoption. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the required adoption date until May 1, 2018 for the Company, although an earlier adoption is permitted. The Company does not intend to early adopt Topic 606.

The Company has established an implementation team to evaluate the impact of Topic 606 on the Company’s accounting policies, processes and system requirements, as well as its consolidated financial statements. Depending on the results of the evaluation, there could be changes to the timing of recognition of revenues and related costs. The Company continues its evaluation of the impact of Topic 606. As of January 31, 2018, the Company had not determined a reasonable estimate of the impact of these new ASUs on its consolidated financial statements, including the effect on the Company’s operating results, if any. The implementation team has reported the progress and status of its evaluation to the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.
