Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software.  ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted.   The Company adopted this pronouncement during the year ended  December 31, 2018 on a prospective basis.  The impact on the financial statements are immaterial.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework – Changes to Disclosure for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements.  ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company adopted this pronouncement during the year ended December 31, 2018 on a prospective basis.  The impact on the financial statements are immaterial.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods and services to customers.  The standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.  We will adopt the new guidance in 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. We have determined that the new guidance will result in a change to the timing of revenue recognition for certain of our products from a “point in time” upon physical delivery to an “over time” model. We are in the process of finalizing the new accounting policies, processes, and internal controls necessary to support the requirements of Topic 606 and are still evaluating the full impact the standard will have on our financial reporting.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.  The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.  The Company has not yet selected a transition method, nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
