NOTE 3: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	NOTE 3: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and in July 2018 FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. The amendments in this Update revise the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. The Update became effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Adoption of the standard required the use of a modified retrospective transition approach for all periods presented at the time of adoption. Based on the Company’s leases outstanding at December 31, 2018, which totaled less than 20 leased properties and no significant leased equipment, the adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of financial condition or our consolidated statements of income, although an increase to assets and liabilities occurred at the time of adoption. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset for all leases of $9.5 million based on the lease portfolio at that time. Subsequent to December 31, 2018, the Company’s lease terminations, new leases and lease modifications and renewals will impact the amount of lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset recognized. The Company’s leases are currently all “operating leases” as defined in the Update; therefore, no material change in the income statement presentation of lease expense occurred in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company’s lease activities are discussed further in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The Update amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. This Update affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. For public companies, the update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption will be permitted beginning after December 15, 2018. An entity will apply the amendments in this update on a modified retrospective basis, through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company previously formed a cross-functional committee to oversee the system, data, reporting and other considerations for purposes of meeting the requirements of this standard. Data and system needs were assessed. As a result, third-party software was acquired and implemented to manage the data. We have completed the upload of the necessary historical loan data to the software that will be used in meeting certain requirements of this standard. Our loss data covers multiple credit cycles back to 2003. Parallel testing of the new methodology compared to the current methodology commenced in 2019 and the Company continues to evaluate the impact of adopting the new guidance. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective for us (the three-month period ending March 31, 2020), but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment, or the overall impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles: Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350). To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test should be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and an impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the qualitative impairment test is necessary. The nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle should be disclosed upon transition. The amendments in this update should be adopted for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance, including consideration of early adoption, on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact. 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 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, modify/clarify the specific requirements of certain disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-13 is effective for period beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for certain removed and modified disclosures, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
