RECENT AND PENDING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently Adopted
Revenue - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2014-09 creates a five-step model that requires companies to exercise judgment when considering all relevant facts and circumstances in the determination of when and how revenue is recognized and requires entities to recognize revenues when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. As a result, our beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 was $6.4 million greater than what was reported at December 31, 2017. This was due to a $4.2 million decrease in deferred revenue, a $0.2 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income related to translation adjustments, an increase in unbilled receivables of $1.3 million and an increase of $0.7 million in prepaid commissions that resulted from the adoption of ASC 606. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under ASC 605. For additional details refer to Note 4, "Significant Accounting Policies Update" and Note 5, "Revenues".
Pending Adoption
Leases - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right of use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as either financing or operating with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
ASU No. 2016-02 will be effective beginning on January 1, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year, and early adoption
is permitted at any time. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered
into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with certain practical expedients available. While we are still evaluating the impact of the potential new standard on our consolidated Financial Statements, we expect that upon adoption we will recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities and that the amounts could be material.
