REVISION OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
As previously disclosed in note
2
to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the
2017
Form
10
-K, the Company changed its accounting for the capitalization of certain internal labor and related costs associated with construction and customer installation activities commencing in the
first
quarter of
2017.
The Company initially classified the entire change as a change in accounting estimate. During the
fourth
quarter of
2017,
the Company determined that a portion of what had previously been reflected as a change in estimate should have been categorized as a change in accounting principle, a portion was determined to be the correction of an error and a portion remained a change in estimate. The changes determined to be a change in estimate or change in accounting principle were applied prospectively for all of
2017.
The Company estimates that the change in principle resulted in a decrease in operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) of approximately
$3.8
million and
$3.9
million, a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately
$0.1
million and
$0.1
million and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of
$0.2
million and
$0.7
million for the
three
months ended March
31,
2017
and March
31,
2018,
respectively, compared to the results under the prior principle. Although the Company determined the error to be immaterial to its previously issued financial statements, the cumulative effect of the error would have been material if corrected in
2017.
Therefore, as disclosed in the
2017
Form
10
-K, the Company revised its historical financial statements to properly reflect the impact of the labor capitalization, including the related impact to depreciation expense and income taxes. In connection with this revision, the Company also corrected for other previously identified immaterial errors. The financial statements for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2017
included in this Quarterly Report on Form
10
-Q have been similarly revised to reflect the correction of these errors and should be read in conjunction with note
2
and note
17
in the
2017
Form
10
-K.
