In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in credit loss estimates. This guidance is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.



In the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30). This ASU requires companies to present, in the balance sheet, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In addition, the amortization of that debt discount is required to be presented as a component of interest expense. The Company applied this guidance retrospectively, effective January 1, 2016. Accordingly, the Company reclassified unamortized debt issuance costs of $5.8 million from Other Assets to Long-Term Debt,  less current maturities in its December 31, 2015 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and reclassified amortization of deferred debt issuance costs of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from Other income (expense), net to Interest Expense in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.



In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvement to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payments including: accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements. This guidance is to be adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.



In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), which eliminates the requirement that an entity retroactively adopt the equity method of accounting if an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership. Instead, an equity method investor adds the cost of acquiring the additional interest to the current basis of the previously held interest and adopts the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified as such. This guidance is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements.



In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic-842), which amends the existing guidance in ASC 840 Leases. This amendment requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases. Other significant provisions of the amendment include (i) defining the “lease term” to include the non-cancellable period together with periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease; (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheet to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance “fixed”; and (iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased asset’s economic benefits. This ASU is to be adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2019. Lessees and lessors are required to use a modified retrospective transition method for existing leases. Accordingly, they would apply the new accounting model for the earliest year presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements.



In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Subtopic 740-10). This ASU requires entities to present all deferred tax assets and all deferred tax liabilities as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. This ASU is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2017. The Company had $19.1 million of current deferred tax assets and $31.1 million of current deferred tax liabilities as of June 30 2016, which will be presented as noncurrent upon adoption of this ASU. 



In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which provides a single comprehensive accounting standard for revenue recognition for contracts with customers and supersedes current industry-specific guidance, including ASC 605-35. The new standard prescribes a five-step revenue recognition model that focuses on transfer of control and entitlement to consideration in determining the amount of revenue to be recognized. The guidance also significantly expands qualitative and quantitative disclosure requirements regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018. The adoption will result in retrospective application, either in the form of recasting all prior periods presented or a cumulative adjustment to equity in the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements.
