(2)  Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, except as it relates to the adoption of new accounting standards during the first nine months of 2018 as discussed below.

 

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new U.S. GAAP standard "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" using a modified retrospective application method, recognizing an immaterial cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit. The Company applied the new guidance to (i) contracts not completed as of the date of adoption and (ii) all new revenue contracts entered into after January 1, 2018. Refer to Note 11 "Revenue” for additional details on this adoption and the Company’s updated revenue accounting policy and disclosures.

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted a U.S. GAAP standard update "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments" which clarifies the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The adoption of this new standard did not impact the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted a U.S. GAAP standard that aligns the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees. Under the new guidance, the existing employee guidance is applied to nonemployee share-based transactions. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new U.S. GAAP accounting standard which requires that all lessees recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet and disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its leasing arrangements. The Company will adopt the new guidance for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2019 and expects to use the modified retrospective transition method, which requires the Company to apply the standard as of the effective date and does not require restatement of prior periods. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a material impact on its Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss or Statement of Cash Flow, however the Company expects that adoption of this standard will result in the recognition of material right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

In August 2018, the SEC issued a final rule amending certain disclosure requirements including expanding the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders' equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the consolidated balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. This final rule will be effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the final rule on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued amendments that modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments become effective for our fiscal year, including interim periods, beginning January 1, 2020. Early adoption, of all the amendments or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the requirements, is permitted.  The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
