Application of New Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the accounting guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This standard requires management to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the accounting guidance in ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” This standard eliminated the requirement for organizations to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations are now required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. Implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company applied this standard retrospectively and, therefore, prior periods presented were adjusted.
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the accounting guidance in ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This standard simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance requires excess tax benefits and deficiencies to be recognized in the income statement rather than in additional paid-in capital. As a result of applying this change, the Company recognized $0.1 million of excess tax benefit in the provision for incomes taxes during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The Company applied this standard prospectively, where applicable, and, therefore, prior periods presented were not adjusted.
New Accounting Requirements and Disclosures
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The ASU will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition requirements in U.S. GAAP and will require entities to recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The new standard also requires significantly expanded disclosures regarding the qualitative and quantitative information of an entity’s nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date by one year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, which improves the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, which clarifies identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-11, which rescinds certain SEC Staff Observer comments that are codified in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, effective upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, and ASU No. 2016-12, which reduces the potential for diversity in practice at initial application and reduces the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-20, which provides technical corrections and improvements to the original guidance issued. The Company intends to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The Company has identified key contract types representative of its business for comparing historical accounting policies and practices to the new standard and is continuing to evaluate the impact these pronouncements will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This standard requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. The pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period and should be applied using a modified retrospective transition approach, with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This standard replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. 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 pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” This standard addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” This standard provides additional guidance on whether an integrated set of assets and activities constitutes a business. The pronouncement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, with early adoption permitted in specific instances. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” This standard eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. An entity will now recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
