13.	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09,

Revenue

from Contracts with Customers,

which requires companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to delay the effective date of this standard by one year. This deferral resulted in ASU 2014-09 being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. However, early adoption is permitted so that ASU 2014-09 would become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company intends to adopt the standard early so that it will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The new standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method on adoption. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, including which transition method it will adopt,

but does not anticipate a material impact

In August

2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15,

Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,

which states management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise a substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and likely to occur at the date that the financial statements are issued. The standard update will be effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter, however, early application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-15 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, but does not anticipate a material impact.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03 S

implifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

, which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the standard, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. However, for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, such costs can be deferred and presented as an asset and subsequently amortized ratably over the term of the arrangement. The standard will be effective for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2015-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company incurred de minimis costs associated with changes to its line of credit in fiscal 2015 and expensed those costs.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05(ASU 2015-05),

. This standard clarifies the circumstances under which a cloud computing customer would account for the arrangement as a license of internal-use software under ASC 350-40. ASU 2015-05 is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods therein beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may adopt the guidance either retrospectively or prospectively to arrangements entered into, or materially modified after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have on its consolidated financial statements, but does not anticipate a material impact.

In September 2015, The FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805):

Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments

. With the issuance of ASU 2015-16, the current guidance under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 805 eliminates the requirement that an acquirer retrospectively adjust provisional amounts recognized in a business combination during the measurement period. The measurement period is one year from the date of the acquisition. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The financial statements should contain the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization or other income effects calculated as if the accounting had been completed at acquisition date. The financial statements should also separately present on the face of the income statement, or disclose in the footnotes, the amount of adjustments recorded in the current period, by line item, that would have been recorded in prior periods had the adjustment been made at the date of acquisition. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in ASU 2015-16 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted ASU 2015-16 in fiscal 2015 and it did not have any impact on its financial statements.

In November 2015, The FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740):

Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.

The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. As a result, each jurisdiction will now only have one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. Importantly, the guidance does not change the existing requirement that only permits offsetting within a jurisdiction – that is, companies are still prohibited from offsetting deferred tax liabilities from one jurisdiction against deferred tax assets of another jurisdiction. The new guidance will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those years (i.e., in the first quarter of 2017 for calendar year-end companies). For entities other than public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The guidance may be applied either prospectively, for all deferred tax assets and liabilities, or retrospectively (i.e., by reclassifying the comparative balance sheet). If applied prospectively, entities are required to include a statement that prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted. If applied retrospectively, entities are also required to include quantitative information about the effects of the change on prior periods. The Company has adopted ASU 2015-17 for its balance sheet as presented on January 2, 2016.
