Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2019

NextGen Healthcare is a leading provider of ambulatory-focused healthcare software and services solutions. In pursuit of our mission to empower the transformation of ambulatory care, we provide innovative technology-based solutions that help our clients succeed while they are managing more complexity and assuming greater financial risk.

Our clients span the ambulatory care market from small single specialty practices to larger multi-specialty organizations. We have fully integrated our solutions so that our clients are able to provide their patients with comprehensive services utilizing a single platform. Our highly interoperable platform allows ambulatory practices to thrive especially in complex, heterogeneous healthcare communities where frictionless clinical data exchange is required to coordinate and optimize patient care.

NextGen Healthcare has historically enhanced our solutions through both organic and inorganic activities. In October 2015, we divested our former Hospital Solutions division to focus exclusively on the ambulatory marketplace. In January 2016, we acquired HealthFusion Holdings, Inc. and its cloud-based electronic health record and practice management solution. In April 2017, we acquired Entrada, Inc. and its cloud-based, mobile platform for clinical documentation and collaboration. In August 2017, we acquired EagleDream Health, Inc. and its cloud-based population health analytics solution. In January 2018, we acquired Inforth Technologies for its specialty-focused clinical content. The integration of these acquired technologies have made NextGen Healthcare’s solutions among the most comprehensive and powerful in the market.

The Company was incorporated in California in 1974. Previously named Quality Systems, Inc., the Company changed its corporate name to NextGen Healthcare, Inc. in September 2018. Our principal offices are located at 18111 Von Karman Ave., Suite 800, Irvine, California, 92612, and our principal website is www.nextgen.com. We operate on a fiscal year ending on March 31.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NextGen Healthcare, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Each of the terms “NextGen Healthcare,” “NextGen,” “we,” “us,” or “our” as used herein refers collectively to the Company, unless otherwise stated. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Business Segments

Business Segments. We determined that the Company operates in one segment as of June 30, 2017 and continues to operate in one segment through the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019. We made such determination by first identifying our Chief Executive Officer as our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and considering the measures used by our CODM to allocate resources. Our CODM utilizes consolidated revenue and consolidated operating results to assess performance and make decisions about allocation of resources.

Previously, through the end of fiscal year 2017, we operated under two reportable segments, consisting of the Software and Related Solutions segment and the RCM and Related Services segment, which was consistent with the disaggregated financial information used and evaluated by our CODM to assess performance and make decisions about the allocation of resources. However, as part of our reorganization efforts that were substantially complete as of the end of fiscal year 2017, our internal organizational structure whereby certain functions that formerly existed within each individual operating segment has continued to evolve. Our former Chief Operating Officer was previously responsible for leading the operations of our former RCM and Related Services business while our former Chief Client Officer led our client success organization, consisting of the Software and Related Solutions business and other functions, such as sales and marketing. Upon the resignation of our former Chief Operating Officer in April 2017 and concurrent appointment of our former Chief Client Officer as Chief Operating Officer, our entire portfolio of software and services were aligned under our new Chief Operating Officer in an effort to provide our clients with an even more simplified experience and more effectively deliver a consolidated financial solution to our clients, rather than components of a solution. As a result of such changes in our internal organization structure, the CODM now operates the Company as a single functional organization. The CODM measures company-wide performance by reviewing consolidated revenue and operating results and evaluates the impact of allocating resources to overall profit and margins on a consolidated basis.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. References to amounts in the consolidated financial statement sections are in thousands, except shares and per share data, unless otherwise specified.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and recording revenue and expenses during the period.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition. We adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (“ASC 606”) and all related amendments as of April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption. ASC 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Refer to Note 3, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" for additional information regarding our revenue recognition policies under ASC 606.

Adoption of ASC 606

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605 and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance provides a five-step process for determining the amount and timing of revenue recognition and establishes disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from contracts with customers. It also provides guidance on the accounting treatment for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract that would not have been incurred had the contract not been obtained.

We adopted ASC 606 and all related amendments as of April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption. Results for reporting periods beginning after April 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period comparative information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those prior periods. We have also implemented changes to our processes, policies, and internal controls over financial reporting to address the impacts of the new revenue recognition standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recurring revenues consists of subscription services, support and maintenance, managed services, and EDI and data services. Software, hardware, and other non-recurring consists of revenue from sales of software license and hardware and certain non-recurring services, such as implementation, training, and consulting performed for clients who use our products.

Generally, we recognize revenue under ASC 606 for our most significant performance obligations as follows:

Subscription services. Performance obligations involving subscription services, which include annual licenses, are satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services throughout the contract period. We recognize revenue related to these services ratably over the respective noncancelable contract term.

Support and maintenance. Performance obligations involving support and maintenance are satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the maintenance services provided. Our support and maintenance services may consist of separate performance obligations, such as unspecified upgrades or enhancements and technical support, which are considered stand-ready in nature and can be offered at various points during the service period. Since the efforts associated with the combined support and maintenance services are rendered concurrently and provided evenly throughout the service period, we consider the series of support and maintenance services to be a single performance obligation. Therefore, we recognize revenue related to these services ratably over the respective noncancelable contract term.

Managed services. Managed services consist primarily of RCM and related services, but also includes transcription services and certain other recurring services. Performance obligations associated with RCM services are satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services executed throughout the contract period. The majority of service fees under our RCM arrangements are variable consideration contingent upon collections by our clients. We estimate the variable consideration which we expect to be entitled to over the noncancelable contract term associated with our RCM service arrangements. The estimate of variable consideration included in the transaction price typically involves estimating the amounts we will ultimately collect on behalf of our clients and the relative fee we charge that is generally calculated as a percentage of those collections. Inputs to these estimates include, but are not limited to, historical service fees and collections amounts, timing of historical collections relative to the timing of when claims are submitted by our clients to their respective payers, macroeconomic trends, and anticipated changes in the number of providers. Significant judgement is required when estimating the total transaction price based on the variable consideration. We may apply certain constraints, when appropriate and permitted under ASC 606, to our estimates around our variable consideration in order to ensure that our estimates do not pose a risk of significantly misstating our revenue in any reporting period. RCM and related services may not be rendered evenly over the contract period as the timing of services are based on customer collections, which may vary throughout the service period. We recognize revenue for RCM based on the amount of collections received throughout the contract term as it most closely depicts our efforts to transfer our service obligations to the customer. Performance obligations related to the transcription services and other recurring services are generally satisfied as the corresponding services are provided and revenue is recognized as such services are rendered.

Electronic data interchange and data services. Performance obligations related to EDI and other transaction processing services are satisfied at the point in time the services are rendered. The transfer of control occurs when the transaction processing services are delivered and the customer receives the benefits from the services provided.

Software license and hardware. Software license and hardware are considered point-in-time performance obligations as control is transferred to customers upon the delivery of the software license and hardware. Our software licenses are considered functional licenses, and revenue recognition generally occurs on the date of contract execution as the customer is provided with immediate access to the license. We generally determine the amount of consideration allocated to the software license performance obligation using the residual approach, except for certain RCM arrangements where the amount allocated to the software license performance obligation is determined based on estimated relative standalone selling prices. For hardware, we recognize revenue upon transfer of such hardware or devices to the customer.

Other non-recurring services. Performance obligations related to other non-recurring services, including implementation, training, and consulting services, are generally satisfied as the corresponding services are provided. Once the services have been provided to the customer, the transfer of control has occurred. Therefore, we recognize revenue as such services are rendered.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and money market funds with original maturities of less than 90 days. At March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $33,079 and $28,845, respectively. We also had cash deposits held at United States banks and financial institutions at March 31, 2019 of which $32,746 was in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of $250 per owner. Our cash deposits are exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits in the event of nonperformance by the institutions; however, we do not anticipate nonperformance by these institutions.

Money market funds in which we hold a portion of our excess cash are invested in very high grade commercial and governmental instruments, and therefore bear low market risk.

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents. Restricted cash and cash equivalents consist of cash that is being held by the Company acting as an agent for the disbursement of certain state social and care services programs. We record an offsetting liability when we initially receive such cash from the programs. We relieve both restricted cash and cash equivalents and the related liability when amounts are disbursed. We earn an administrative fee based on a percentage of the funds disbursed on behalf of the government social and care service programs.

Accounts Receivable Reserves

Accounts Receivable Reserves. We maintain reserves for potential sales returns and uncollectible accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are reported net of uncollectible accounts receivable on our consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 606 as of April 1, 2018, sales return reserves are classified as other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

Our standard contracts generally do not contain provisions for clients to return products or services. However, we historically have accepted sales returns under certain circumstances. Accordingly, we estimate sales return reserves, including reserves for returns and other credits, based upon our review of customer-specific facts and circumstances, including aged receivable balances, and recognize revenue, net of an allowance for sales returns. If we are unable to estimate the returns, revenue recognition may be delayed until the rights of return period lapses, provided also, that all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met. If we experience changes in practices related to sales returns or changes in actual return rates that deviate from the historical data on which our reserves had been established, our revenues may be adversely affected.

Allowances for doubtful accounts and other uncollectible accounts receivable related to estimated losses resulting from our clients’ inability to make required payments are established based on our historical experience of bad debt expense and the aging of our accounts receivable balances, net of deferred revenue and specifically reserved accounts. Specific reserves are based on our estimate of the probability of collection for certain troubled accounts. Accounts are written off as uncollectible only after we have expended extensive collection efforts.

Our allowances for doubtful accounts are based on our assessment of the collectability of client accounts. We regularly review the adequacy of these allowances by considering internal factors such as historical experience, credit quality and age of the client receivable balances as well as external factors such as economic conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay and review of major third-party credit-rating agencies, as needed.

Inventory

Inventory. Inventory consists of hardware for specific client orders and spare parts and are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) and net realizable value. Our provision for inventory obsolescence reduces our inventory to net realizable value.

Equipment and Improvements

Equipment and Improvements. Equipment and improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Repair and maintenance costs that do not improve service potential or extend economic life are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and amortization of equipment and improvements are recorded over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or the related lease terms if shorter, by the straight-line method. Useful lives generally have the following ranges:

•

Computer equipment - 3 to 5 years

•

Furniture and fixtures - 3 to 7 years

•

Leasehold improvements - lesser of lease term or estimated useful life of asset

Depreciation expense related to our equipment and improvements was $10,298, $10,498, and $10,080 for the years ended March 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively.

Capitalized Software Costs

Capitalized Software Costs. Software development costs, consisting primarily of employee salaries and benefits and certain third party costs, incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products for external sale are expensed as incurred, and reported as net research and development costs in the consolidated statements of net income and comprehensive income, until technological feasibility has been established. After technological feasibility is established, additional external-sale software development costs are capitalized. Amortization of capitalized software is recorded using the greater of the ratio of current revenues to the total of current and expected revenues of the related product or the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the related product, which is typically three years. The total of capitalized software costs incurred in the development of products for external sale are reported as capitalized software costs within our consolidated balance sheets.

We also incur costs to develop software applications for our internal-use and costs for the development of software-as-a-service ("SaaS") based products sold to our clients. The development costs of our SaaS-based products are considered internal-use for accounting purposes. Our internal-use capitalized costs are stated at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is typically three years. Application development stage costs generally include costs associated with internal-use software configuration, coding, installation and testing. Costs related to the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. Costs of significant upgrades and enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized, whereas costs incurred for maintenance and minor upgrades and enhancements are expensed as incurred. Capitalized software costs for developing SaaS-based products are reported as capitalized software costs within our consolidated balance sheets and capitalized software costs for developing our internal-use software applications are reported as equipment and improvements within our consolidated balance sheets.

We periodically reassess the estimated economic life and the recoverability of our capitalized software costs. If a determination is made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based on the estimated net cash flows to be generated from sales of the applicable software product, the amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs of a software product exceed the net realizable value is written off as a charge to earnings. The net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from that product reduced by the estimated future costs of completing and disposing of that product, including the costs of performing maintenance and client support required to satisfy our responsibility at the time of sale. In addition to the assessment of net realizable value, we routinely review and adjust, if necessary, the remaining estimated lives of our capitalized software costs. Additionally, we perform a periodic review of our clients’ usage of our software products and dispose of fully amortized capitalized software costs after such products are determined to be no longer used by our clients.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations. In accordance with the accounting for business combinations, we allocate the purchase price of the acquired business to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of acquired assets and liabilities assumed represent our best estimate of fair value. The estimated fair value of the acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed were determined using multiple valuation approaches depending on the type and nature of tangible or intangible asset acquired, including but not limited to the income approach, the excess earnings method and the relief from royalty method approach. The purchase price allocation methodology contains uncertainties as it requires us make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, intangible assets, goodwill, deferred revenue, and contingent consideration liabilities. We estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities based on our projection of expected results, as needed. Unanticipated events or circumstances may occur which could affect the accuracy of our fair value estimates, including assumptions regarding industry economic factors and business strategies. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but not later than one year following the acquisition date. Any adjustments to fair value subsequent to the measurement period are reflected in the consolidated statements of net income and comprehensive income.

Goodwill

Goodwill. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is measured as the excess of the purchase price, or consideration transferred, over the net acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized as it has been determined to have an indefinite useful life.

We test goodwill for impairment annually during our first fiscal quarter, referred to as the annual test date. We will also test for impairment between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired.

As part of our annual goodwill impairment test, we first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we conclude that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we conduct a two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair values of the applicable reporting units with their carrying values. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, we perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test. The second step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the affected reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying value of that goodwill. The amount by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, if any, is recognized as an impairment loss.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade names and contracts, and software technology. These intangible assets are recorded at fair value and are reported net of accumulated amortization. We currently amortize the intangible assets over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years using a method that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed. We assess the recoverability of intangible assets at least annually or whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. If the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the related assets are less than the carrying value of such assets, impairment is deemed to have occurred and a loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the intangible assets to fair value, which is determined by discounting estimated future cash flows. In addition to the impairment assessment, we routinely review the remaining estimated lives of our intangible assets and record adjustments, if deemed necessary.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets. We assess our long-lived assets for potential impairment periodically or whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. If necessary, recoverability of the assets is evaluated based on the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the related assets compared to the carrying value of such assets. If impairment is deemed to have occurred, a loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the long-lived assets to fair value, which is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows. In addition to the impairment assessment, we routinely review the remaining estimated lives of our long-lived assets and record adjustments, if deemed necessary.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes. Income taxes are provided based on current taxable income and the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred income tax assets and liabilities represent the future state and federal tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred income taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that are available to offset future income taxes. At each reporting period, we assess the realizable value of deferred tax assets based on, among other things, estimates of future taxable income and adjust the related valuation allowance as necessary. We make a number of assumptions and estimates in determining the appropriate amount of expense to record for income taxes. The assumptions and estimates consider the taxing jurisdiction in which we operate as well as current tax regulations. Accruals are established for estimates of tax effects for certain transactions and future projected profitability based on our interpretation of existing facts and circumstances.

Advertising Costs

Advertising Costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. We do not have any direct-response advertising. Advertising costs, which include trade shows and conventions, were approximately $8,226, $9,073, and $7,111 for the years ended March 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively, and were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of net income and comprehensive income.

Earnings per Share

Earnings per Share. We provide a dual presentation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share (“EPS”). Shares below are in thousands.

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,
	2019		2018		2017
Earnings per share — Basic:
Net income	$	24,494	$	2,420	$	18,241
Weighted-average shares outstanding — Basic		64,417		63,435		61,818
Net income per common share — Basic	$	0.38	$	0.04	$	0.30

Earnings per share — Diluted:
Net income	$	24,494	$	2,420	$	18,241
Weighted-average shares outstanding		64,417		63,435		61,818
Effect of potentially dilutive securities		183		5		192
Weighted-average shares outstanding — Diluted		64,600		63,440		62,010
Net income per common share — Diluted	$	0.38	$	0.04	$	0.29

The computation of diluted net income per share does not include 1,963, 2,984 and 2,999 options for the years ended March 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively, because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation. The following table shows total share-based compensation expense included in the consolidated statements of net income and comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017:

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,
	2019			2018			2017
Costs and expenses:
Cost of revenue	$	1,252		$	938		$	514
Research and development costs		2,919			2,038			973
Selling, general and administrative		11,931			9,220			6,111
Total share-based compensation		16,102			12,196			7,598
Income tax benefit		(3,859	)		(4,125	)		(2,637	)
Decrease in net income	$	12,243		$	8,071		$	4,961

Recent Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements are discussed below or in the notes, where applicable.

In March 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-05, Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, to add various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to Accounting Standards Codification 740. SAB 118 was issued by the SEC in December 2017 to provide immediate guidance for accounting implications of the United States Tax Reform under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”). We have evaluated the potential impacts of SAB 118 and have applied this guidance to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures (see Note 11).

In May 2017, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-09, Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting ("ASU 2017-09"). ASU 2017-09 clarifies the changes to terms or conditions of a share-based payment award that require an entity to apply modification accounting. ASU 2017-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted and prospective application is required. ASU 2017-09 was effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted in two scenarios as identified in the new standard. ASU 2017-01 was effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 provides guidance on the classification of restricted cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Although it does not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents, it states that amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of this new standard resulted in a decrease to net cash provided by operating activities of $930 and $2,543 for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 is intended to add and clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows to eliminate diversity in practice related to how such cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2016-15 was effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB, along with the International Accounting Standards Board, issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 ("ASC 606"), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”). We adopted ASC 606 and all related amendments as of April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption (see Note 3).

Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted. Recent accounting pronouncements requiring implementation in current or future periods are discussed below or in the notes, where applicable.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles–Goodwill and Other–Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). ASU 2018-15 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2018-15 is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this updated authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework–Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2018-13 is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and we currently do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles–Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 removes the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of Step two of the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted on goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. ASU 2017-04 is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and we currently do not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The new guidance will require lessees to recognize on their balance sheets the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases and to disclose key information about the leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2016-02 is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

We are currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this updated authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements. We expect to implement the new lease guidance, including all related updates, when it becomes effective for us on April 1, 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method, which is the additional transition method described within ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, issued by the FASB in July 2018. We are currently in the process of implementing changes to our policies, processes, and internal controls over financial reporting to meet the requirements under the new guidance related to identifying and measuring right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, including related disclosures. In addition to evaluating each of our existing facility lease arrangements, we have also reviewed other contractual arrangements to determine if any other leases exist within the scope of the new lease guidance or whether our arrangements contain any embedded leases. While we continue to assess the impact of the new lease guidance on our consolidated financial statements, we currently expect to record right-of-use assets of approximately $39 million and lease liabilities of approximately $51 million and a reduction to other current and noncurrent liabilities of approximately $12 million as a result of the adoption of the new lease guidance. We also currently do not expect the adoption of the new lease guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if adopted, would have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition and Performance Obligations

We generate revenue from sales of licensing rights and subscriptions to our software solutions, hardware and third-party software products, support and maintenance, managed services (formerly referred to as revenue cycle management and related services), EDI, and other non-recurring services, including implementation, training, and consulting services. Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations that consist of various combinations of our software solutions and related services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

The total transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation within an arrangement based on estimated standalone selling prices. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers, except for certain software licenses that are based on the residual approach because their standalone selling prices are highly variable and certain maintenance customers that are based on substantive renewal rates. In instances where standalone selling price is not observable, such as software licenses included in our RCM arrangements, we estimate standalone selling price utilizing an expected cost plus a margin approach. When standalone selling prices are not observable, significant judgment is required in estimating the standalone selling price for each performance obligation.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We expect that the new revenue guidance in ASC 606 will result in additional complexity to our revenue recognition, including the use of an increased amount of significant judgments and estimates, particularly as it relates to our RCM services revenue.

We exclude sales tax from the measurement of the transaction price and record revenue net of taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
