Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. This ASU was further amended in August 2015, March 2016, April 2016, May 2016 and December 2016 by ASU No. 2015-14, No. 2016-08, No. 2016-10, No. 2016-12 and No. 2016-20, respectively.  The guidance provides a five-step approach to be applied to all contracts with customers and also requires expanded disclosures about revenue recognition.  On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting guidance for all contracts using the retrospective approach.    The adoption of this new guidance did not result in any changes to previously reported revenue amounts.  Please see Note 3 for more information.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02Leases (Topic 842). In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard regarding leases. Lessees will be required to recognize virtually all of their leases on the balance sheet, by recording a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Public business entities are required to adopt the new leasing standard for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For calendar year-end public entities, this means an adoption date of January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company anticipates adopting the new guidance effective January 1, 2019.

 

The Company has begun its assessment of the new guidance and the impact it will have on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures and expects to complete its analysis in 2018. Management is still completing its assessment of the impacts; however, based on preliminary findings, the Company expects that the majority of its identified leases will be required to be reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Based on the preliminary assessment, the Company expects there will be minimal impacts to the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company expects to have an update to the impacts of the standard in the third quarter of 2018.

 

Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718):  Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). In June 2018, the FASB issued new guidance regarding accounting for stock compensation.  The new guidance expands the scope of Topic 718 to include all share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. ASU 2018-07 specifies that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which the grantor acquires goods and services to be used or consumed in its own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under ASC 606. ASU 2018-07 is effective for public entities beginning December 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, but no earlier than the adoption of ASC 606. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
