ASU No. 2016-02
Leases (Topic 842)
 
The standard requires lessees to recognize most leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, but record expenses on the statement of operations in a manner similar to current accounting. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The standard also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for existing leases, whereby the standard will be applied to the earliest year presented. The provisions of the standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.

 
The Company has adopted this standard using the modified retrospective approach and elected the transition method to initially apply the new leases standard to all leases that exist at January 1, 2019. Under this transition method, the Company initially applied Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019, and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment which increased the Company's beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2019 by approximately $1.6 million. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new leases standard, which among other things, permitted the Company to carry forward its historical lease classification for leases in place prior to January 1, 2019. The comparative period information has not been restated and continues to be reported and presented under the accounting standards in effect for that period. The standard did not materially impact the Company's consolidated net earnings and had no impact on cash flows.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)
 
The objective of this standard is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit, including trade receivables, held by an entity at each reporting date. 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 to inform credit loss estimates. The provisions of this standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. An entity will apply the amendments in this update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective, that is, a modified-retrospective approach.

 
The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of this standard. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
