In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. ASU 2017-07 requires companies to present the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line items in which they report compensation cost. Companies will present all other components of net benefit cost outside operating income, if this subtotal is presented. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has determined the Standard will impact the operating subtotal as reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of income with a reduction to operating income of $4.7 million and a corresponding increase in other non-operating income for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Revision to Lease Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 842, Leases. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Standard will have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet. The most significant impact will be the recognition of Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases. The Company is still assessing the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. The new standard will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2014-09 may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented in the financial statements (full retrospective approach) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the date of adoption (modified retrospective approach). We will adopt the new revenue standard on January 1, 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective approach. We have spent significant time evaluating, analyzing and documenting the expected impact of ASU 2014-09 on our financial statements. We have performed a detailed review of key contracts representative of our different businesses and product lines, reviewing various industry publications, and comparing our current accounting policies to the principles and requirements outlined in the new Standard. Our assessment at this stage is that we do not expect the new revenue recognition standard will have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.
