Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). The following ASUs were adopted by the Company in 2019:
Standard
Description
Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)

ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements

ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements

ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases

ASU 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842
Issued on February 5, 2016, ASU 2016-02 amends the accounting guidance for leases and sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a lease agreement (i.e., lessees and lessors).
The Company adopted ASC 842 during the first quarter of 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method with a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit. Refer to Lease Accounting section above for details.
ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes
The amendments in this update permit use of the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815 in addition to the UST, the LIBOR swap rate, the OIS rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate, and the SIFMA Municipal Swap Rate.The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2019 using the prospective approach. The adoption did not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements since LIBOR is still in use, however, this is expected to have an impact in later periods once SOFR is adopted.
ASU 2018-02, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive IncomeThe amendments in this update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Consequently, the amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and will improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. However, because the amendments only relate to the reclassification of the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. The amendments in this Update also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2019 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
