New Accounting Pronouncements And Changes In Accounting Principles [Abstract] |
Accounting Standards | (3) Accounting Standards Recently Adopted Lease Accounting Standard In February 2016, an accounting standards update was issued that requires an entity to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for all leases. Classification of leases as either a finance or operating lease determines the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses. This accounting standards update also required certain quantitative and qualitative disclosures about leasing arrangements. The new standard was effective for us in first quarter 2019 and we adopted the new standard using a modified retrospective approach, with the date of initial application effective on January 1, 2019. Consequently, upon transition, we recognized a ROU asset (or operating lease right-of-use asset) and a lease liability with no retained earnings impact. We are applying the following practical expedients as provided in the standards update which provide elections to:
| • | not apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases (a lease that at commencement date has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not contain a purchase option); |
| • | not reassess whether a contract contains a lease, lease classification and initial direct costs; and |
| • | not reassess certain land easements in existence prior to January 1, 2019. |
Through our implementation process, we evaluated each of our lease arrangements and enhanced our systems to track and calculate additional information required upon adoption of this standards update. Our adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019, with the primary impact relating to the recognition of ROU assets and operating lease liabilities for operating leases which represents approximately a 1% change to total assets and total liabilities. The impact of adoption of this new standards update was as follows (in thousands):
| January 1, 2019 |  |
|  | Adoption |  |  |  | Reclassification (1) |  |  |  | Total Adjustment |
Balance Sheet: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Operating lease right-of-use assets | $ | 59,300 |  |  | $ | (7,925 | ) |  | $ | 51,375 |
Accrued liabilities – current | $ | (14,811 | ) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (14,811 | )
Operating lease liabilities – long-term | $ | (44,489 | ) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (44,489 | )
Asset retirement obligations and other liabilities | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7,925 |  |  | $ | 7,925 |
| (1) | As of December 31, 2018, we had $7.9 million of operating lease liabilities recorded as part of purchase price accounting for building leases acquired because we did not expect to occupy the space or receive payments from our subleases. Lease incentives related to other buildings were also included. Upon adoption of the new standards update, these leases were included as part of our adoption. The ROU asset is reduced because we do not expect to use the asset.
Adoption of the new standard did not impact our consolidated statements of operations, cash flows or stockholders’ equity. Leases acquired to explore for or use minerals, oil or natural gas resources, including the right to explore for those natural resources and rights to use the land in which those natural resources are contained, are not within the scope of the standards update. Pension Accounting Standard In March 2017, an accounting standards update was issued which provides additional guidance on the presentation of net benefit cost in the statement of operations. Employers are to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same consolidated results of operations line item as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. This new standards update was effective for annual reporting periods in first quarter 2018 and must be applied retrospectively. We adopted this standards update in first quarter 2018. The adoption did not impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows or disclosures. We had no service cost recorded prior to 2018 due to the implementation of our post retirement benefit plan at the end of 2017. In 2019 and 2018, our service cost is recorded in general and administrative expense. Modification of Share – Based Awards In May 2017, an accounting standards update was issued which clarifies what constitutes a modification of a share-based award. This standards update was intended to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. We adopted this standards update in first quarter 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows or disclosures. Revenue Recognition Standard In May 2014, an accounting standards update was issued that superseded the existing revenue recognition requirements. This standard included a five-step revenue recognition model to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Among other things, the standard also eliminated industry-specific revenue guidance, required enhanced disclosures about revenue, provided guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively and improved guidance for multiple-element arrangements. This standard was effective for us in first quarter 2018 and we adopted the new standards update using the modified retrospective method to all open contracts as of January 1, 2018. Our implementation of this standard did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment on date of adoption; however, our financial statement presentation related to revenue received from certain gas processing contracts changed. Based on previous accounting guidance, certain of our gas processing contracts were reported in revenue at a net price (net of processing costs) we receive. Upon adoption of this accounting standards update, these contracts are now reported as a gross price received at a delivery point and separate transportation, marketing and processing expense. Not Yet Adopted Financial Instruments – Credit Losses In June 2016, an accounting standards update was issued that changes the impairment model for trade receivables, net investments in leases, debt securities, loans and certain other instruments. The standards update requires the use of a forward-looking “expected loss” model as opposed to the current “incurred loss” model. This standards update is effective for us in first quarter 2020 and will be adopted on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the adoption period. We have evaluated the provisions of this accounting standards update and are assessing the impact, if any, it may have on our consolidated results of operations, financial position and financial disclosures. From the evaluation of our current credit portfolio, which includes receivables for commodity sales, joint interest billings due from partners and other receivables, historical credit losses have been de minimis and we believe that our expected future credit losses would not be significant. As such, we do not believe adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our financial statements. Fair Value Measurement In August 2018, an accounting standards update was issued which provides additional disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This new standards update eliminates the requirement to disclose transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and provides for additional disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements. This new standards update is effective for us in first quarter 2020 and will be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis depending on the changes that apply. We do not believe adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our financial disclosures.
