NOTE I – RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes—Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” which requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Prior to the issuance of the standard, deferred tax liabilities and assets were required to be separately classified into a current amount and a noncurrent amount in the balance sheet. The new accounting guidance represents a change in accounting principle and the standard is required to be adopted in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and the Company elected to early adopt this guidance as of March 31, 2016 and to apply the guidance retrospectively to all periods presented. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2015, the Company reclassified the prior period amount of $8.6 million related to its deferred tax assets and $.2 million related to its deferred tax liabilities from current to noncurrent, resulting in an increase of $7.4 million to its noncurrent deferred tax assets and a decrease of $1.0 million to its noncurrent deferred income tax liabilities. Because the application of this guidance affects classification only, such reclassifications did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of its operations.
