FASB ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, was issued in August 2014. The amendments in this update provide guidance in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items, was issued in January, 2015. This update eliminates from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles the concept of extraordinary items, which required that an entity separately classify, present and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. Eliminating the concept of extraordinary items will save time and reduce costs for preparers because they will not have to assess whether a particular event or transaction is extraordinary. It will also alleviate uncertainty for preparers, auditors, and regulators because auditors and regulators will no longer need to evaluate whether the preparer treated an unusual item appropriately. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. A reporting entity also may apply the amendments retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, was issued in April, 2015. The amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debit liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued, and the amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-04, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Subtopic 715), Practical Expedient for the Measurement of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets, was issued in April, 2015. A reporting entity with a fiscal year end that does not coincide with a month end may incur more costs than other entities when measuring the fair value of plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other post-retirement benefit. For an entity with a fiscal year end that does not coincide with a month end, the amendments in this Update provide a practical expedient that permits the entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year end and apply that practical expedient consistently from year to year. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years. Early application is permitted, and the amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements was issued in June, 2015. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to entities. The amendments in this Update that require transition guidance are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. All other amendments will be effective upon the issuance of this update. The adoption of the amendments that required transition guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the other amendments in this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (Topic 606), Deferral of the effective date, was issued in August 2015. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 was originally effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. In August 2015, the FASB issued 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date and requires either a retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements and related notes, as well as the available transition methods.

FASB ASU 2015-15, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements was issued in August, 2015. The amendments in this Update address line-of-credit arrangements. In that, given the absence of authoritative guidance within Update 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the terms of the line-of-credit arrangement. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued, and the amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments was issued in September 2015. The amendments in this Update 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 amendments in this Update require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments–Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities was issued in January 2016. The amendments in this Update make targeted improvements to generally accepted accounting principles, and address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial statements. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Except as specifically stated, early adoption of the amendments in this Update are not permitted. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), Section A- Leases, Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Section B – Conforming Amendments Related to Leases: Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, and Section C – Background Information and Basis for Conclusions was issued in February 2016. The amendments in this Update are designed to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this Update include disclosures that are required by lessees and lessors to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the amendments in this Update is permitted. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-04, Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20), was issued in March 2016. The amendments in this Update apply to entities that offer certain prepaid stored-value products, including prepaid gift cards, prepaid telecommunication cards, and travelers checks. The amendments in this Update contain specific guidance for the derecognition of pre-paid stored value product liabilities and are an improvement to GAAP because they specify how pre-paid stored-value product liabilities with the Update’s scope should be derecognized. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing was issued in April 2016. The core principle of the guidance in Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in this Update clarify the following two aspects in Topic 606, identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, was issued in May 2016. The amendments in this update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, but rather clarify certain narrow aspects. The amendments in this update clarify the objective of collectibility and determine whether a contract is valid based on if the customer has the ability and intention to pay, and also to clarify when revenue would be recognized for a contract that fails collectibility. The amendments in this Update affect the guidance in Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, defers the effective date of Update 2014-09 by one year. This standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, was issued in June 2016. The main objective of this Update is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this Update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal year. Early adoption of the amendments in this Update are allowed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity will apply the amendments in this Update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach). A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. The effect of a prospective transition approach is to maintain the same amortized cost basis before and after the effective date of this Update. The Company is studying the implications of this update, including following evolving regulatory and industry guidance, and gathering additional detailed historical data. The effect of this Update on the Company’s financial statements is not known at this time.

FASB ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, was issued in August 2016. The amendments in this Update provide guidance on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This Update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. This amendments in this Update are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
