[1] | As of January 1, 2016, we have adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 with retrospective application. This resulted in a reclassification from other non-current assets to long-term debt, less current portion for debt issuance costs. Refer to Note 2, “Recently Issued Accounting Standards” of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.
