B. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2015-03 “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (ASU 2015-03). ASU 2015-03 changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Upon adoption of ASU 2015-03, debt issuance costs will be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 retrospectively during the quarter ended December 26, 2015.  As a result, $8.3 million and $9.3 million of debt issuance costs were recorded as a reduction of total debt at June 25, 2016 and September 26, 2015, respectively.



In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2015-17 “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” (ASU 2015-17). ASU 2015-17 requires entities to present deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. ASU 2015-07 simplifies current guidance, which requires entities to separately present deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. The Company adopted ASU 2015-17 retrospectively during the quarter ended December 26, 2015.  As a result, $7.3 million of deferred tax assets were recorded as a reduction of the caption “Deferred Income Taxes” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 25, 2016 and September 26, 2015.
