New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASC 606"). This standard update, along with related subsequently issued updates, clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for GAAP. The standard update also amends current guidance for the recognition of costs to obtain and fulfill contracts with customers such that incremental costs of obtaining and direct costs of fulfilling contracts with customers will be deferred and amortized consistent with the transfer of the related good or service. ASC 606 intends to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets; and provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. Following the adoption of this guidance, the revenue recognition for our sales arrangements remained materially consistent with our historical practice. For more information, see Note 3, "Revenues." In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which states that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Earlier adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2019. The Company’s adoption process of the new standard is ongoing, including evaluating and quantifying the impact on its consolidated financial statements, identifying the population of leases (and embedded leases), implementing a selected technology solution and collecting and validating lease data. Additionally, the Company is in the process of assessing any potential impacts on the internal controls and process related to both the implementation and ongoing compliance of the new guidance. While the Company is continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, it currently believes the most significant impact relates to the recognition on the Company’s balance sheet of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all operating leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification. For income statement purposes, operating leases will result in a straight-line expense while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern. The new lease standard provides entities two options for applying the modified retrospective approach (1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative-effect adjustment recognized at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or (2) retrospectively at the beginning of the period of adoption (January 1, 2019) through a cumulative-effect adjustment recognized then. The Company plans to adopt the standard by recognizing and measuring leases at the adoption date with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently planning on electing the package of practical expedients to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs and is evaluating the other practical expedients available under the guidance. On August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force. The new guidance is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. On January 2017, the FASB issued final guidance that revises the definition of a business, ASU No. 2017-01: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805). The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting (e.g., acquisitions, disposals, goodwill impairment, or consolidation). The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements. The guidance may have an impact on the Company as it pursues its strategy to develop its business. On May 2017, the FASB issued guidance ASU No. 2017-09: Scope of Modification Accounting (Topic 718), to clarify when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements.
