Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with (i) United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and (ii) the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of our management, our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes (the “Financial Statements”) include all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for the fair statement of the interim periods presented. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2018 (“Annual Report”). Unless otherwise indicated, all references to years are to our fiscal year, which ends on October 31. Discontinued Operations Following the sale of our Security business in 2015, we record all costs associated with this former business in discontinued operations. Such costs generally relate to litigation we retained and insurance reserves. Prior Year Reclassifications Effective November 1, 2018, we have modified the presentation of inter-segment revenues, which are recorded at cost with no associated intercompany profit or loss and are eliminated in consolidation. Our prior period segment data in Note 11, “Segment Information,” has been reclassified to conform with our fiscal 2019 presentation. These changes had no impact on our previously reported consolidated financial statements. Rounding We round amounts in the Financial Statements to millions and calculate all percentages and per-share data from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot, or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding. Management Reimbursement Revenue by Segment We operate certain parking facilities under managed location arrangements. Under these arrangements, we manage the parking facility for a management fee and pass through the revenue and expenses associated with the facility to the owner. See Note 3, “Revenue,” for further details regarding managed location arrangement considerations under the new revenue standards. These revenues and expenses are reported in equal amounts as costs reimbursed from our managed locations:

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies,” in our Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended April 30, 2019, other than those described below. Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and subsequently issued several ASUs further updating Topic 606. Additionally, in May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-10, Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853): Determining the Customer of the Operation Services, to clarify how operating entities should determine the customer of operation services for transactions within the scope of this guidance, which U.S. GAAP did not address prior to this ASU. The amendment eliminates diversity in practice by clarifying that the grantor is the customer of the operation services in all cases for those arrangements. We determined that revenue we generate from service concession arrangements, primarily from certain parking arrangements, will be accounted for under this guidance. We adopted the amendments in this update in conjunction with the adoption of Topic 606, as discussed below. Collectively these ASUs introduce a new principles-based framework for revenue recognition and disclosure. The core principle of the standard is when an entity transfers goods or services to customers it will recognize revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to for those goods or services. The standard also expands the required disclosures to include the disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. We adopted Topic 606 and Topic 853 on November 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of 2019; prior period financial statements are not adjusted. We applied the standards to contracts that had not been completed at November 1, 2018 and did not apply them to contracts that were modified before the beginning of the earliest reporting period presented. See Note 3, “Revenue,” for further details. Other Recently Adopted Accounting Standards During the first quarter of 2019, we adopted the following ASUs with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements:
ASU |  | Topic |  | Method of Adoption
2016-01 |  | Financial Instruments |  | Modified retrospective
2016-15 |  | Statement of Cash Flows — Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments |  | Retrospective
2016-16 |  | Income Taxes — Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory |  | Modified retrospective
2016-18 |  | Statement of Cash Flows — Restricted Cash |  | Retrospective
2017-07 |  | Compensation — Retirement Benefits |  | Retrospective
2017-09 |  | Compensation — Stock Compensation |  | Prospective
2018-02 |  | Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income: Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income |  | Early adopted; we elected not to reclassify any stranded tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) due to the insignificance of the amount remaining in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).
2018-04 |  | Investments — Debt Securities |  | Adopted in conjunction with ASU 2016-01
Additionally, in August 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) published Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements that have become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated, or superseded in light of other SEC disclosure requirements, U.S. GAAP, or changes in the information environment, effective for all filings of periods beginning after November 5, 2018. While most of the amendments in this release eliminate outdated or duplicative disclosure requirements, the final rule amends the interim financial statement requirements to include a reconciliation of changes in stockholders’ equity in the notes or as a separate statement for each period for which an income statement is required to be filed. We have provided this required information herein as a separate statement. The eliminated or amended disclosures did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which replaces existing lease accounting guidance. The new standard is intended to provide enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The new guidance will require us to continue to classify leases as either operating or financing, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of comprehensive income. The FASB issued several updates to ASU 2016-02, including: ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which provides an additional transition method to adopt Topic 842; and ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements, which addresses, among other issues, determination of the fair value of the underlying asset by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers and clarifies interim period transition disclosure requirements. We have established an implementation team to comprehensively evaluate the impact of adopting this guidance, which includes: reviewing our lease portfolio; implementing new system tools to help us meet reporting requirements; and assessing the impact to business processes, internal control over financial reporting, and the related disclosure requirements. While our evaluation is ongoing, we believe the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheets due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. Refer to Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies,” in our 2018 Annual Report for information about our lease obligations. This standard will become effective for us on November 1, 2019. We plan to adopt using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases that exist in the period of adoption, and therefore we will not restate the prior comparative periods. No other recently issued standards are expected to have a significant impact on our fiscal 2020 consolidated financial statements.
