New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] |
New Accounting Pronouncements | New Accounting Pronouncements Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. We consider the applicability and impact of all 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 statements and notes thereto. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU will replace previous lease accounting guidance in U.S. GAAP. The ASU requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. The ASU retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The following ASUs have been issued in 2018 with the same effective dates and transition requirements:
• | ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient, which provides a relief from certain land easements held before the effective date.
• | ASU 2018-10, Leases: Codification Improvements, which provides clarification for various areas of Topic 842.
• | ASU 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements, which provides clarification for several areas of Topic 842: comparative reporting requirements, an optional method of adoption (the transition method) and separating lease and non lease component for lessors.
• | ASU 2018-20, Leases: Narrow-Scope Improvement for Lessors, which provided clarification to lessors for sales taxes, variable payments and other costs.
The Company historically does not enter into numerous or material lease agreements to support its manufacturing operations. The Company typically enters into lease agreements that are less than a year and for leases on assets such as warehouse vehicles and office equipment. The Company assumed a multi-year facility lease in the WattMaster acquisition. The Company has completed the process of determining our contracts to which this new guidance applies. The Company does not expect this new guidance to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements due to the non-material monetary amount of the total leased assets under the new applicable guidance. Furthermore, we have elected to apply the short-term lease accounting policy election to all short-term leases under the applicable guidance. Under the policy election the lessee does not recognize a short-term lease liability or right-of-use asset on its balance sheet. The Company will elect the transition method, which becomes effective upon the date of adoption of ASU 2016-02 discussed above. The transition method allows entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (January 1, 2019) and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. We expect the cumulative-effect adjustments to the opening balance to be immaterial to the financial statements as a whole. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements: Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurements. The ASU includes additional disclosure requirements for unrealized gains and losses for Level 3 fair value measurement and significant observable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not expect ASU 2018-13 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. The ASU simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. We will be required to perform our annual goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. In the event the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, a goodwill impairment charge for the excess will be recorded (not exceeding the recorded amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill). The ASU is effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2020, and requires a prospective method of adoption, although early adoption is permitted for annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates on or after January 1, 2017. We adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2018.
