Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, along with amendments issued in 2015 and 2016, which is codified in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018. ASC 606 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company has applied the modified retrospective approach to adoption whereby the standard is applied only to the current period.

Adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Certain costs previously included in selling and administrative expense and principally related to administrative fees paid to group purchasing organizations are required to be recorded as a reduction of revenue under the new standard. These costs amounted to $8.3 million, $8.2 million and $7.9 million for 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These costs are included as a reduction in net sales during 2018 and as selling and administrative expense during 2017 and 2016. There is no impact on net income or earnings per share as a result of this change.

The Company previously expensed as incurred commissions paid for the sale of extended warranty contracts to customers. Under the new guidance, the Company capitalizes these contract acquisition costs and realizes the expense in line with the related extended warranty contract revenue recognition. Upon adoption of the new standard, we recorded a cumulative adjustment of $0.4 million net of income taxes to beginning shareholders’ equity in order to capitalize costs incurred to obtain contracts with customers.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in total cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This new guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019, however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in conjunction with our annual impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2018.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 Compensation Retirement Benefits (ASC 715) - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.  This ASU requires companies to record the service component of net periodic pension cost in the same income statement line as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period.  The other components of net periodic pension cost would be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside the subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented.  The Company adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Based Compensation (ASC 718) - Scope of Modification Accounting. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions, or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive.  The Company adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). This ASU provides entities with the option to eliminate the stranded tax effects associated with the change in tax rates under Tax Reform through a reclassification of the stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Company adopted this guidance during the fourth quarter of 2018 and reclassified $5.9 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. The reclassification was primarily comprised of amounts relating to our pension plan and unrealized hedging gains and losses. The Company generally releases income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss once the reason for the tax effects ceases to exist.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU is intended to simplify aspects of share-based compensation issued to non-employees by making the guidance consistent with accounting for employee share-based compensation. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. We early adopted this update on October 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
    
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This guidance requires companies to determine if costs associated with hosted cloud computing services are capitalized or expensed depending on the nature of the cost and the project stage during which they are incurred. Generally, companies will only capitalize costs related to the development and implementation of the cloud computing arrangement. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted in any interim period. We early adopted this new guidance, on a prospective basis, effective July 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), along with amendments issued in 2017 and 2018. This ASU requires lessees to record leases on their balance sheets but recognize the expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current practice. ASU 2016-02 states that a lessee would recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term.

The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019, and is applying the modified retrospective approach along with the package of transition practical expedients. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which we plan to account for separately. For certain equipment leases, we expect to apply a portfolio approach to efficiently account for the operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities. We also plan to elect the short-term lease exemption and not recognize leases with terms less than one year on the balance sheet.

We have assessed the impact of adopting this ASU and performed a detailed review of our lease portfolio. As a result of the assessment, we expect to record right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, that were previously unrecorded under prior GAAP, in the range of $17 million to $19 million. We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our net income, earnings per share or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which requires instruments measured at amortized cost, including accounts receivable, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new model requires an entity to estimate credit losses based on historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2019 and early adoption is permissible during any interim period after December 31, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This ASU makes more financial and non-financial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. It is intended to more closely align hedge accounting with companies’ risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted this update on January 1, 2019 and we do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, which modifies the disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
