Recently Adopted Accounting Standard Updates

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, Subtopic 835-30 (Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-03). ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by ASU 2015-03. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, applying it retrospectively. The consolidated balance sheet as of January 30, 2016 reflects the reclassification of debt issuance costs of $266,000 from other assets to long term credit facilities. The amount of debt issuance costs included in long term credit facilities as of April 30, 2016 was $1.6 million. In August 2015, the FASB issued Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements, Subtopic 835-30 (ASU No. 2015-15), which clarifies that absent authoritative guidance in ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the revolving line of credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the revolving line of credit arrangement. As of January 30, 2016, debt issuance costs of $694,000 related to our PNC Credit Agreement, revolving line of credit were included within other assets. We continue to include these costs within other assets, amortizing them over the term of the PNC Credit Agreement.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606 (ASU No. 2014-09), which provides a framework for the recognition of revenue, with the objective that recognized revenues properly reflect amounts an entity is entitled to receive in exchange for goods and services. The guidance, also includes additional disclosure requirements regarding revenue, cash flows and obligations related to contracts with customers. In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved a one year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09. The standard will now become effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, Topic 330 (ASU No. 2015-11). ASU 2015-11 changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost or net realizable value. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2015-11 on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, Topic 740 (ASU No. 2015-17). ASU 2015-17 requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as non-current on the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted and applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2015-17 on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Leases, Topic 842 (ASU No. 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective retrospectively for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Compensation-Stock Compensation, Topic 718 (ASU No. 2016-09). This standard makes several modifications to Topic 718 related to the accounting for forfeitures, employer tax withholding on share-based compensation and the financial statement presentation of excess tax benefits or deficiencies. In addition, the ASU also clarifies the statement of cash flows presentation for certain components of share-based awards. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
