Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-04, (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.  ASU No. 2014-04 provides additional guidance to clarify when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized.  ASU No. 2014-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, (Topic 606):  Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  ASU No. 2014-09 provides guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount equal to the consideration the entity receives or expects to receive.  ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, (Subtopic 860-10): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures.  ASU No. 2014-11 makes limited amendments to the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 860, Transfers and Servicing, on accounting for certain repurchase agreements (repos). ASU No. 2014-1 (1) requires entities to account for repurchase-to-maturity transactions as secured borrowings (rather than as sales with forward repurchase agreements), (2) eliminates accounting guidance on linked repurchase financing transactions, and (3) expands disclosure requirements related to certain transfers of financial assets that are accounted for as sales and certain transfers (specifically, repos, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions) accounted for as secured borrowings. ASU 2014-11 also amends FASB ASC 860 to clarify that repos and securities lending transactions that do not meet all of the derecognition criteria should be accounted for as secured borrowings. In addition, ASU No. 2014-11provides examples of repurchase and securities lending arrangements that illustrate whether a transferor has maintained effective control over the transferred financial assets.  ASU No. 2014-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning the first interim or annual period after December 15, 2014.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.
