Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Standards:

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) "Leases." Topic 842 supersedes the lease requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 840, "Leases." Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and provide enhanced disclosures. Leases will continue to be classified as either finance or operating. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (ASC 842): Targeted Improvements,” which provides companies an optional adoption method to ASU 2016-02 whereby a company does not have to adjust comparative period financial statements for the new standard.  

 

The reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 reflect the application of ASC 842, while the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the related lease accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of this update represents a change in accounting principle and resulted in the recognition of right-of-use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities. We elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs incurred. We also elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components when determining the ROU asset and lease liability, as well as the practical expedient to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. The primary effect of adopting this standard relates to the recognition of our operating leases on our Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) and providing additional disclosures about our leasing activities.

 

The Company is a lessee in several noncancellable operating leases, primarily for office and warehouse space, as well as office equipment.

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. The Company recognizes a ROU asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The operating lease liability is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date.

 

Key estimates and judgments include how the Company determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the unpaid lease payments to present value, (2) lease term and (3) lease payments.

 

ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company cannot determine the interest rate implicit in the lease because it does not have access to the lessor’s estimated residual value or the amount of the lessor’s deferred initial direct costs. Therefore, at the date of adoption, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at January 1, 2019.

 

The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the noncancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.

 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise of fixed payments based on the terms of the lease. Certain arrangements have free rent periods or escalating rent payment provisions. We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including any periods of free rent.

 

 

ROU assets are initially and subsequently measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received.  

 

The ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

ROU assets for operating leases are periodically reviewed for impairment losses. The Company uses the long-lived assets impairment guidance in ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment – Overall, to determine whether a ROU asset is impaired, and if so, the amount of the impairment loss to recognize.

 

The Company monitors for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of one of its leases. When a reassessment results in the remeasurement of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding ROU asset unless doing so would reduce the carrying amount of the ROU asset to an amount less than zero.

 

Operating lease ROU assets are presented as operating lease right of use assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The current portion of operating lease liabilities and the long-term portion are presented separately as current and long term operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
