Basis Of Presentation [Abstract] |
Basis Of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation ﻿ Overview ﻿ The accompanying summary consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CryoLife, Inc. and subsidiaries (“CryoLife,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Summary Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016 has been derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited summary consolidated financial statements as of, and for the three and six months ended, June 30, 2017 and 2016 have been prepared in accordance with (i) accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information and (ii) the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for a complete presentation of financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those of a normal, recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. These summary consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CryoLife’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on February 16, 2017. ﻿ Change in Accounting for Employee Share-Based Payments ﻿ As of January 1, 2017 we made an entity-wide accounting policy election in accordance with ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, (“ASU 2016-09”) to change our accounting policy to account for stock compensation forfeitures in the period awards are forfeited rather than estimating the effect of forfeitures. We elected to make this accounting policy change to simplify the accounting for share-based compensation and believe this method provides a more accurate reflection of periodic share-based compensation cost from the grant date forward. We used the modified retrospective transition method to record a net $238,000 cumulative-effect adjustment decrease to retained earnings for the accounting policy change, which included a $379,000 increase to additional paid in capital and a $141,000 increase in deferred tax assets. ﻿ Additionally, as of January 1, 2017 and in accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-09, we made a change to account for excess tax benefits and deficiencies resulting from the settlement or vesting of share-based awards in income tax expense on our Summary Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income, instead of accounting for these effects through additional paid in capital on our Summary Consolidated Balance Sheets. We applied this amendment prospectively and prior periods have not been adjusted. ﻿
