Note 7 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) established Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize a lease liability and ROU asset on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.  The new standard was effective for the Company on the first day of fiscal year 2019, December 31, 2018, and it elected the optional transition method to apply the standard as of the effective date.  Consequently, financial information has not been updated and the disclosures required under the new standard have not been provided for dates and periods before December 31, 2018.  See Note 10 – Leases for additional discussion surrounding the adoption of Topic 842 as well as related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU No. 2016-13”).  ASU No. 2016-13 was issued to update the methodology used to measure current expected credit losses (“CECL”). The update applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases, and trade accounts receivable as well as certain off-balance sheet credit exposures, such as loan commitments. This ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology to reflect CECL and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to explain credit loss estimates.  ASU No. 2016-13 must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. The effective date relative to smaller reporting companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 to have an impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU No. 2017-04”).  This update simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test.  An entity will no longer perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment.  Instead, impairment will be measured at the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit, not to exceed the carrying value of the reporting unit goodwill.  The option remains for an entity to perform a qualitative assessment of a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.  ASU No. 2017-04 requires prospective adoption and is effective commencing in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have an impact on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU No. 2018-07”), in an effort to simplify the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees.  Under ASU No. 2018-07, most of the guidance on stock compensation payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees.  ASU No. 2018-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of fiscal year 2019, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU No. 2018-13”).  This update eliminates, modifies and adds a number of disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in connection with the FASB’s disclosure framework project, the objective of which is to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements.  ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. While the Company continues to assess the potential impact of ASU No. 2018-13, it does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on the notes to its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
