2.  Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This ASU will be effective commencing with our quarter ending March 31, 2020. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which allows companies to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Reform”), from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to retained earnings. This ASU was effective commencing with our quarter ended March 31, 2019 and we have elected not to reclassify the immaterial stranded tax effects from AOCI to retained earnings. We adopted the policy that future income tax effects which are stranded in AOCI will be released under the item-by-item approach.

Effect of adopting Topic 842

The core principle of Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize operating leases as right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet as described below. Prior to adoption of Topic 842, we recognized operating lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term on our consolidated statements of operations and did not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

We adopted Topic 842 using a modified retrospective transition approach with no prior-period retrospective adjustments, recognizing a net cumulative decrease to retained earnings and added ROU assets, short and long term lease liabilities of approximately $0.5 million, $72.2 million, $14.9 million and $60.4 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2019.

We applied Topic 842 to all noncancelable operating leases outstanding as of January 1, 2019 except those related to quarry properties and those that at lease commencement have an actual and intended lease term shorter than twelve months.

We elected to apply optional practical expedients which allowed us to forego reassessments of 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; 2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and 3) the initial direct costs for any existing leases.

In connection with the adoption of Topic 842, we implemented the following accounting policy:

ROU Assets and Liabilities: A lease contract conveys the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. At inception, we determine whether a contract contains a lease by determining if there is an identified asset and if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset in exchange for consideration over a period of time.

At lease commencement, we measure and record a lease liability equal to the present value of the remaining lease payments, generally discounted using the borrowing rate on our secured debt as the implicit rate is not readily determinable on many of our leases. We use a single maturity discount rate if it is not materially different than the discount rates applied to each of the leases in the portfolio.

On the lease commencement date, the amount of the ROU assets consist of the following:

 

the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;

 

any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received; and

 

any initial direct costs incurred.

Most of our lease contracts do not have the option to extend or renew. We assess the option for individual leases, and we generally consider the base term to be the term of lease contracts.

On a quarterly basis, we determine if subcontractor, vendor or service provider agreements contain embedded leases by assessing if an asset is explicitly or implicitly specified in the agreement and the counterparty has the right to substitute the asset.
