NOTE 12 — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Although some of the accounting standards issued or effective in the current fiscal year may be applicable to it, the Company believes that none of the new standards have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, except as discussed below. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standards on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which amends the guidance in former ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. This standard contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The entity will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2014‑09 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2017, and is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements.
