Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] |
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (ASUs). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-09 to simplify several aspects of the accounting standard for employee share-based payment transactions, including the classification of excess tax benefits and deficiencies and the accounting for employee forfeitures. ITT elected to adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2017 which includes the following:
• | Excess tax benefits and deficiencies will no longer be recognized as a change in additional paid-in-capital in the equity section of the Balance Sheet. Instead they will be recognized on the Statements of Operations as a tax expense or benefit. On the Statement of Cash Flows, excess tax benefits and deficiencies will no longer be classified as a financing activity. Instead they will be classified as an operating activity. These provisions were adopted using a prospective method of transition. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1.2, on the Statement of Operations and classified this benefit on the Statement of Cash Flows as an operating activity. The income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was less than $0.1. The excess tax benefit of $3.4 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was recorded as a change in equity on the Balance Sheet and was classified as a financing activity on the Statement of Cash Flows.
Previously unrecognized tax benefits due to net operating loss carryforwards were recognized during the first quarter of 2017 using a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to increase retained earnings by $2.1 as of January 1, 2017. In addition, a corresponding deferred tax asset of $25.6 was partially offset by a valuation allowance of $23.5 during the first quarter of 2017 as the newly recognized net operating losses were not considered more likely than not realizable.
• | The impact of forfeitures will now be recognized as they occur as opposed to previously estimating future employee forfeitures. We adopted this provision utilizing a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment reducing retained earnings by $1.6 as of January 1, 2017.
• | The ASU also provides new guidance to other areas of the standard including minimum statutory tax withholding rules and the calculation of diluted common shares outstanding. The adoption of these provisions were reflected prospectively in the financial statements and did not have a material impact.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 which amends the Statement of Operations presentation for the components of net periodic benefit cost for entities that sponsor defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. Under the ASU, entities are now required to disaggregate the service cost component and present it with other current compensation costs for the related employees. All other components of net periodic benefit cost will no longer be classified as an operating expense. In addition, only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization on the balance sheet. The ASU requires a retrospective transition method to adopt the requirement to present service costs separately from the other components of net periodic benefit cost in the statements of operations and a prospective transition method to adopt the requirement that prohibits capitalization of all components of net periodic benefit cost on the balance sheet except service costs. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018, at which time we expect to adopt the new standard. We have yet to finalize the evaluation of the potential impact of this ASU on our financial statements; however, we do not expect these changes to have a material impact. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 impacting the accounting for leases intending to increase transparency and comparability of organizations by requiring balance sheet presentation of leased assets and increased financial statement disclosure of leasing arrangements. The revised standard will require entities to recognize a liability for their lease obligations and a corresponding asset representing the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term. Lease obligations are to be measured at the present value of lease payments and accounted for using the effective interest method. The accounting for the leased asset will differ slightly depending on whether the agreement is deemed to be a financing or operating lease. For finance leases, the leased asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis and recorded separately from the interest expense in the statements of operations, resulting in higher expense in the earlier part of the lease term. For operating leases, the depreciation and interest expense components are combined, recognized evenly over the term of the lease, and presented as a reduction to operating income. The ASU requires that assets and liabilities be presented or disclosed separately and classified appropriately as current and noncurrent. The ASU further requires additional disclosure of certain qualitative and quantitative information related to lease agreements. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter 2019, at which time we expect to adopt the new standard. We are currently assessing our existing lease agreements and related financial disclosures to evaluate the impact of these amendments on our financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 amending the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The amendments are based on the principle that revenue should be recognized 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 guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. We are still finalizing our assessment of the impact of the new standard, but we do not currently expect it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Based on the evaluation of our current contracts and revenue streams, most will be recorded consistently under both the current and new standard. However, the timing of revenue recognition of certain design and build contracts, currently recognized using the percentage of completion method, will be dependent on contract terms and therefore may vary. Additionally, certain advance payments that are currently presented as a reduction of inventory will be presented as a contract liability under the new guidance. The new guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of 2018. At this time, we expect to adopt the new standard using a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application.
