Newly Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 supersedes the existing lease guidance in Topic 840. According to the new guidance, all leases, with limited scope exceptions, will be recorded on the balance sheet in the form of a liability to make lease payments (lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The guidance was effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018.
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using a modified retrospective adoption method at January 1, 2019. Under this method of adoption, there is no impact to the comparative Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also determined that there was no cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company will continue to report periods prior to January 1, 2019 in its financial statements under prior guidance as outlined in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 840, “Leases”. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed the Company to carry forward its historical lease classification. The Company also elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of right of use assets and offsetting lease liabilities of $105 as of January 1, 2019.
In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2018-02: Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) (“ASU 2018-02”). ASU 2018-02 was issued in response to the United States tax reform legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Reform”), enacted in December 2017. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the new tax legislation. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 as of January 1, 2019 and it did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Newly Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 820): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," (“ASU 2016-13”). 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. New disclosures are also required with this standard. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting this standard.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15: Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted and an entity can elect to apply the new guidance on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting this standard.
