New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] | 3 . RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS New pronouncements pending adoption In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016 - 13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“Topic 326” ), which supersedes current guidance by requiring recognition of credit losses when it is probable that a loss has been incurred. The new standard requires the establishment of an allowance for estimated credit losses on financial assets including trade and other receivables at each reporting date. The new standard will result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses on trade and other receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019 - 10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326 ), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815 ) and Leases (Topic 842 ) , which extends the effective date of Topic 326 for certain companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The new standard will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year beginning October 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently reviewing this standard to assess the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018 - 7, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718 ), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018 - 7” ), which amends and expands Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The standard requires entities to measure nonemployee share-based payment transactions by estimating the fair value of the equity instrument it is obligated to issue, measure the equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards at the grant date, and consider the probability of satisfying performance conditions when accounting for nonemployee share based payment awards with such conditions. ASU 2018 - 7 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Accordingly, this guidance was effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2019. The Company does not anticipate that adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018 - 02, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220 ) . The amendments in this ASU allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Consequently, the amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and will improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. However, because the amendments only relate to the reclassification of the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. The amendments in this update also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Accordingly, this is effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2019. The Company expects that the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 02, Leases ( “ASC 842 ” ) , which issued new guidance related to leases that outlines a comprehensive lease accounting model and supersedes the current lease guidance. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets for all leases with lease terms of greater than 12 months. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for in a manner similar to the guidance for operating leases prior to the adoption of ASC 842. ASC 842 requires entities to recognize and measure leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented using a modified retrospective approach, with certain practical expedients available. In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated No. 2018 - 11 (“ASU 2018 - 11” ), which offers a practical expedient that allows entities the option to apply the provisions of ASC 842 by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment at the effective date of adoption without adjusting the prior comparative periods presented. In March 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2019 - 01 (“ASU 2019 - 01” ), which explicitly provides disclosure relief for interim periods during the year the standard is adopted. Under the new guidance, companies are not required to disclose the effect of such adoption in interim periods on certain financial statement items for periods retrospectively adjusted. The new guidance was effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASC 842 by applying modified retrospective transition approach. Under this method, financial information related to periods prior to adoption will be as originally reported under the then-current standard (ASC 840, Leases). The Company elected the following practical expedients:
| ● | The transitional practical expedients, which must be elected as a package and applied consistently to all leases. In electing this practical expedient package the Company is not required to:
| o | reassess whether an existing or expired contract is or contains a lease
| o | reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and
| o | reassess initial direct lease costs for all leases that commenced before the adoption
| ● | Short-term lease practical expedient in which the Company can elect not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases.
The most significant impact on our financial statements will be the recognition of a Right of Use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for our operating leases, primarily related to the Company’s facility lease described in Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies. In addition, a portion of our existing leases are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As a result, the associated lease liabilities will be remeasured using the current exchange rate in the applicable future reporting periods, which may result in foreign exchange gains or losses. The Company does not believe ASC 842 will materially impact our consolidated results of operations or cash flows. As a result of adopting ASC 842 effective October 1, 2019, the Company recorded an initial measurement of approximately $7.8 million of operating lease liabilities, and approximately $5.8 million of corresponding operating ROU assets, net of tenant improvement allowances. There was no cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as a result of the transition to ASC 842. New pronouncements adopted In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230 ), Restricted Cash, which amends Topic 230 to add or clarify guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The standard requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The provisions of this guidance are to be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. ASU No. 2016 - 18 was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016 - 18 effective January 1, 2018. For the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, restricted cash balances are due to a security deposit for the Company’s new facility lease, as described in Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies, and restricted cash held as collateral for notes payable, as described in Note 11, Debt. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, other than the impact discussed above. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718 ): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees. Among other things, under the new guidance, companies will no longer record excess tax benefits and certain tax deficiencies in additional paid-in-capital (“APIC”), but will instead record such items as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement, and APIC pools will be eliminated. Companies will apply this guidance prospectively. Another component of the new guidance allows companies to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards, whereby forfeitures can be estimated, as required today, or recognized when they occur. If elected, the change to recognize forfeitures when they occur needs to be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of $1.1 million of gross deferred tax assets related to the historical excess tax benefits from stock based compensation that was not previously included in deferred tax assets and a corresponding increase in the Company’s valuation allowance. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014 - 09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014 - 09” ), which 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. ASU 2014 - 09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles when it becomes effective. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the standard by an additional year; however, it provided companies the option to adopt one year earlier, commensurate with the original effective date. Accordingly, the standard was effective for the Company in the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018. Subsequently, the FASB issued additional guidance (ASUs 2015 - 14; 2016 - 08; 2016 - 10; 2016 - 12; 2016 - 13; 2016 - 20 ). The adoption of this guidance by the Company, effective October 1, 2018, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
