In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (“ASU 2015-17”), which requires management to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets by jurisdiction as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts.  The standard is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2018 and can be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented.  Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of any interim or annual reporting period.  The adoption of ASU 2015-05 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or financial statement disclosures.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).  ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance.  The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The new standard will require the Company to separate performance obligations within a contract, determine total transaction costs, and ultimately allocate the transaction costs across the established performance obligations.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year.  As a result, ASU 2014-09 will become effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2019 under either full or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted as of the original effective date of ASU 2014-09.  The Company is currently assessing the potential effects of these changes on the Company’s net income, financial position, cash flows and disclosures.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements.  Under ASU 2015-03, an entity will present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset.  Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense.  In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15 - Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (“ASU 2015-15”), which incorporates the SEC staff’s announcement that clarifies the exclusion of line-of-credit arrangements from the scope of ASU 2015-03.  The ASU clarifies that debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements can continue to be deferred and presented as an asset that is subsequently amortized over the time of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement.  ASU 2015-03 is effective retrospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015.  The Company expects to adopt ASU 2015-03 effective for its fiscal second quarter ending March 26, 2016 and the adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or financial statement disclosures.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11 - Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11”)  that changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost or net realizable value.  The amendments in this guidance do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method; rather, the amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out or average cost.  Within the scope of this new guidance, an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value.  Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation, which is consistent with existing GAAP.  ASU 2015-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  The Company expects to adopt ASU 2015-11 beginning in its third quarter of fiscal 2016.  The adoption of ASU 2015-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s net income, financial position, cash flows or disclosures.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05 - Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (an update to Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software ) (“ASU 2015-05”), which provides guidance on accounting for cloud computing fees.  If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the license element of the arrangement consistent within the acquisition of other software licenses.  If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the arrangement should be accounted for as a service contract.  ASU 2015-05 is effective for arrangements entered into, or materially modified, in interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015.  Retrospective application is permitted but not required.  The adoption of ASU 2015-05 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s net income, financial position, cash flows or disclosures.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which requires management to assess whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statements are issued.  If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosures are required.  ASU 2014-15 will be effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2017.  The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures.
