Description |  | Expected Adoption Date & Application Method |  | Financial Statement Effect and Other Information
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments |  | January 1, 2020 - Modified Retrospective |  | The guidance replaces the current incurred loss impairment model, which reflects credit events, with a current expected credit loss model, which recognizes an allowance for credit losses based on an entity’s estimate of contractual cash flows not expected to be collected. The Company has determined that its available-for-sale debt securities, guarantees, mortgage and other notes receivable and receivables within the scope of ASC 606 fall under the scope of this standard. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement |  | January 1, 2020 - Prospective |  | The guidance eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but public companies will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
ASU 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract |  | January 1, 2020 - Prospective |  | The guidance addresses diversity in practice in accounting for the costs of implementation activities in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. Under the guidance, the Company is to follow Subtopic 350-40 on internal-use software to determine which implementation costs to capitalize and which to expense. The guidance also requires an entity to expense capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement and include that expense in the same line item as the fees associated with the service element of the arrangement. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform |  |  | On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting , which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions as of March 31, 2020, but will continue to evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period as circumstances evolve.
Lease Modification Q&A |  |  | In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance related to lease concessions provided as a result of COVID-19. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under Topic 842, Leases . Instead, an entity that elects not to evaluate whether a concession directly related to COVID-19 is a modification can then elect whether to apply the modification guidance (i.e. assume the relief was always contemplated by the contract or assume the relief was not contemplated by the contract). Both lessees and lessors may make this election. The Company is evaluating its election on a disaggregated basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The future impact of the Lease Modification Q&A is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of COVID-19 in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering into such concessions. The Company is evaluating the impact that this update may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets | Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates its real estate assets and investment in unconsolidated affiliates for impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that recoverability of its investment in the asset is not reasonably assured. Furthermore, this evaluation is conducted no less frequently than quarterly, irrespective of changes in circumstances. The prolonged outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in sustained closure of the Company’s properties, as well as the cessation of the operations of certain of its tenants, which will likely result in a reduction in the revenues and cash flows of many of its properties due to the adverse financial impacts on its tenants, as well as reductions in other sources of income generated by its properties. In addition to reduced revenues, the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financing for such properties may be impaired as well as its ability to lease or re-lease properties as a result of worsening market and economic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s evaluation of impairment considered its estimate of cash flow declines caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but its other assumptions, including estimated hold period, were generally unchanged given the highly uncertain environment. The worsening of estimated future cash flows due to a change in the Company’s plans, policies, or views of market and economic conditions as it relates to one or more of its properties adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic could result in the recognition of substantial impairment charges on its assets, which could adversely impact its financial results. For the period ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded $133,644 of impairment charges for two of its malls and six other properties had impairment indicators; however, based on the Company’s plans with respect to those properties and the economic environment as of March 31, 2020, no additional impairment charges were recorded.
