New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new revenue recognition guidance under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 that will supersede the existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The new standard focuses on creating a single source of revenue guidance for revenue arising from contracts with customers for all industries. The objective of the new standard is for companies to recognize revenue when it transfers the promised goods or services to its customers at an amount that represents what the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year. This ASU will now be effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 requiring management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, which is currently performed by the external auditors. Management will be required to perform this assessment for both interim and annual reporting periods and must make certain disclosures if it concludes that substantial doubt exists. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03 amending current guidance for debt issuance costs. The new guidance requires debt issuance costs to be presented as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability rather than as an asset. In August 2015, ASU 2015-15 was issued to further clarify that line-of-credit arrangements may be presented as an asset and amortized over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These ASUs are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning on or after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17 which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendment requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities must all be classified as noncurrent. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. We have elected to early adopt this standard effective January 3, 2016 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard resulted in a reclassification of our net current deferred tax asset to a net noncurrent deferred tax asset and our net current deferred tax liability to a net noncurrent deferred tax liability.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 amending the current guidance for how entities measure certain equity investments, the accounting for financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements relating to financial instruments. The new guidance requires entities to use fair value measurement for equity investments in unconsolidated entities, excluding equity method investments, and to recognize the changes in fair value in net income at the end of each reporting period. Under the new standard, for any financial liabilities in which the fair value option has been elected, the changes in fair value due to instrument-specific credit risk must be recognized separately in other comprehensive income. Presentation and disclosure requirements under the new guidance require public business entities to use the exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost. In addition, financial assets and liabilities must now be presented separately in the notes to the financial statements and grouped by measurement category and form of financial asset. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is only permitted for the financial liability provision. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Management has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
