In March 2016, the FASB issued an update to their accounting guidance on stock compensation that intends to simplify and improve the accounting and statement of cash flow presentation for income taxes at settlement, forfeitures, and net settlements for withholding tax. The new standard is effective in the first quarter of 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this guidance as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2016. The primary impact was the recognition of a $15.8 million excess tax benefit in our provision for income taxes, rather than paid-in capital, in the first quarter of 2016. Also starting in the first quarter of 2016, the Company changed its earnings per share calculation to exclude excess tax benefits previously assumed under the treasury stock method, which had a minimal impact on diluted shares. The Company has elected to continue its existing practice of estimating expected forfeitures in determining compensation cost. VF did not have any awards that were subject to the amendment regarding employee shares eligible for tax withholding, and no changes were required related to the classification of employee taxes paid for withheld shares on the statement of cash flows since VF has historically classified these within financing cash flows. The Company began to present excess tax benefits as an operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2016 as required by the updated guidance, and elected to retrospectively adjust its first quarter of 2015 operating and financing cash flows, as follows:
In thousands Statement of Cash Flows |  | First Quarter 2015 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (As Previously Reported) |  |  | Reclassification of Tax Benefits of Stock-based Compensation Increase (Decrease) |  |  | First Quarter 2015 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Reclassified) |
Cash used by operating activities |  | $ | (430,624 | ) |  | $ | 29,678 |  |  | $ | (400,946 | )
Cash provided by financing activities |  |  | 205,094 |  |  |  | (29,678 | ) |  |  | 175,416 |
