ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments"June 2016The standard required a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The standard was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. First Quarter Fiscal 2021

Standards that have not yet been adopted
ASU 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740)"December 2019The standard provides final guidance that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance in ASC 740 related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance simplifies accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted.N/AWe are in the process of evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
