Revenue from contracts with customers

The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 effective as of January 1, 2018 and adjusted prior period consolidated financial statements to reflect full retrospective adoption.  In adopting ASU 2014-09, the Company has made the following significant changes in accounting principles:

 

(i)

Timing of revenue recognition for term license sales. Under ASU 2014-09, the Company now recognizes product licenses revenue from term licenses upon delivery of the software.  Previously, this revenue was recognized over the term of the arrangement.

 

(ii)

Timing of revenue recognition for sales to channel partners.  Under ASU 2014-09, the Company now recognizes revenue from sales made to OEMs when control of the products transfers to the OEM, less adjustments for returns or price protection.  Previously, this revenue was not recognized until the product was sold by the OEM to the end user. Revenue from sales made to resellers continues to be recognized when control of the product has transferred to the end user.

 

(iii)

Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.  Under ASU 2014-09, the Company allocates the transaction price to the various performance obligations in the contract based on their relative SSP.  Except for SSP of product support, the Company’s methodologies for estimating SSP of its various performance obligations are generally consistent with the Company’s previous methodologies used to establish vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value on multiple element arrangements.  Whereas VSOE of product support was previously based on the optional stated renewal fee within the contract, SSP of product support under ASU 2014-09 is established as a range within each geographic region as discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements.  The impact from SSP-based allocations was not material to the Company’s prior or current period financial statements and is not expected to be material in future periods.

 

(iv)

Material rights. The Company’s contracts with customers may include options to acquire additional goods and services at a discount.  Under ASU 2014-09, certain of these options may be considered material rights if sold below SSP and would be treated as separate performance obligations and included in the allocation of the transaction price. Previously, none of the Company’s options were considered material rights. The impact from material rights was not material to the Company’s prior or current period financial statements and is not expected to be material in future periods.

 

(v)

Presentation of accounts receivable, contract assets, and contract liabilities (deferred revenue). Under ASU 2014-09, the Company’s rights to consideration are presented separately depending on whether those rights are conditional (“contract assets”) or unconditional (“accounts receivable”). See Note 5, Contract Balances, to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on balance sheet presentation.  Under ASU 2014-09, the Company cannot net accounts receivable with contract liabilities (“deferred revenue”) and the Company no longer offsets its accounts receivable and deferred revenue balances for unpaid items that are included in the deferred revenue balance. Previously, this offsetting of accounts receivable and deferred revenue balances for unpaid amounts was applied in the Company’s prior period financial statements.

 

(vi)

Deferral of incremental direct costs to obtaining a contract with a customer.  Under ASU 2014-09, the Company now capitalizes certain variable compensation payable to its sales force and subsequently amortizes the capitalized costs over a period of time that is consistent with the transfer of the related good or service to the customer, which the Company has determined to be three years. Previously, the Company elected to expense these incremental direct costs as incurred.

Upon adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Company recorded a cumulative $13.0 million increase to its 2016 beginning retained earnings balance, offset by a $12.9 million decrease in gross deferred revenues, a $5.2 million decrease in deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, a $4.4 million increase in other non-current assets, and a $0.9 million increase in other current assets.

The following line items as of December 31, 2017 and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 have been adjusted in the consolidated financial statements to reflect the adoption of ASU 2014-09:

Intra-entity asset transfers

In October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (“ASU 2016-16”), to improve the accounting for income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. Under ASU 2016-16, the deferral of the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory is eliminated. Entities will be required to recognize the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfers occur. The standard requires a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption using a modified retrospective approach. The Company adopted this guidance effective as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. No cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings was made.

 

Lease accounting

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lease assets and lease liabilities be recognized for all leases, in addition to the disclosure of key information to enable users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from an entity’s leasing arrangements.  ASU 2016-02 defines a lease as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys both (i) the right to obtain economic benefits from and (ii) direct the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.  Under ASU 2016-02, leases are classified as either finance or operating leases. For finance leases, a lessee shall recognize in profit or loss the amortization of the lease asset and interest on the lease liability.  For operating leases, a lessee shall recognize in profit or loss a single lease cost, calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term, generally on a straight-line basis.  

 

The Company will adopt this guidance and its subsequent amendments effective as of January 1, 2019. The Company has elected the transition option to apply the new lease requirements as of the adoption date without restating comparative periods presented in its financial statements and will record a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the first quarter of 2019 as needed.  The Company has substantially completed the implementation of key system changes and changes to internal controls over financial reporting to allow the Company to timely compile the information needed to account for transactions under this new guidance and to adjust the 2019 beginning balances in its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

The Company has substantially completed its review of contracts for potential embedded leases and compiled an inventory of current leases.  The Company’s current leases are primarily related to office space in the United States and foreign locations and are classified as operating leases under GAAP.  The Company plans to elect the package of practical expedients described in ASU 2016-02, which includes not reassessing the following: (i) lease classification of existing leases, (ii) whether expired or existing contracts contain leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for existing leases.  The Company also plans to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components for leases related to office space, which is the Company’s only material underlying asset class.

 

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, cash flows and disclosures, but will not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations. Upon adopting ASU 2016-02, the Company will recognize new right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for operating leases and provide key quantitative and qualitative information relating to these leases. The Company will present the amortization of its operating ROU assets and the change in its operating lease liabilities within the operating activities section of its consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company does not have any material leases that will be classified as finance leases.

 

The Company estimates the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the recognition of additional ROU assets and lease liabilities of approximately $88.0 million and $117.0 million, respectively, and a reduction in deferred rent of approximately $29.0 million in the Company’s 2019 beginning balances. The Company does not expect a material change in its 2019 beginning retained earnings balance, as the Company does not have material unamortized initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company will provide quantitative and qualitative disclosures in order to meet the overall disclosure objective of ASU 2016-02, which is to enable financial statement users to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company will also retain prior year disclosures for comparative periods as prior periods will not be restated.

 

Cloud computing arrangements

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 requires customers in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow existing internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize and which costs to expense. Under this model, customers would need to determine the nature of the implementation costs and the project stage in which they are incurred to determine which costs to capitalize or expense.  Customers would be required to amortize the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement, which might extend beyond the noncancelable period if there are options to extend or terminate. ASU 2018-15 specifies the financial statement presentation of capitalized implementation costs and related amortization in addition to required disclosures for material capitalized implementation costs related to hosting arrangements that are service contracts. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2020.  Early adoption is permitted.  Entities can choose to adopt this guidance prospectively to eligible costs incurred on or after the date the guidance is first applied, or to adopt the guidance retrospectively.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
