Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentration of Credit Risks
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash investments, accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in short-term instruments with high quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure in any one financial instrument. The Company pursues amounts and incentives due from vendors in the normal course of business and is often allowed to deduct these amounts and incentives from payments made to vendors.
A credit review is completed for new customers and ongoing credit evaluations of each customer’s financial condition are performed periodically, with reserves maintained for potential credit losses. Credit limits given to customers are based on a risk assessment of their ability to pay and other factors. Accounts receivable are typically not collateralized, but the Company may require prepayments or other guarantees whenever deemed necessary.
Recent Accounting Standards or Updates Not Yet Effective
Recent Accounting Standards or Updates Not Yet Effective
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (“ASU 2014-09”), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. On April 29, 2015, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would defer the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard by one year. The FASB also proposed permitting early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date which is for annual reports beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its financial statements.
On June 19, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period: Topic 718 (“ASU 2014-12”). The standard states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition. This standard is effective for the Company beginning in 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-12 on its financial statements.
On April 7, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs: Subtopic 835-30 (“ASU 2015-03”). In order to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs, ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs to be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than an asset.  ASU 2015-03 is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The guidance also requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-03 on its financial statements.
