Note H – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases – (Topic 842). This update will require lessees to recognize all leases with terms greater than 12 months on their balance sheet as lease liabilities with a corresponding right-of-use asset. This update maintains the dual model for lease accounting, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance, with lease classification determined in a manner similar to existing lease guidance. The basic principle is that leases of all types convey the right to direct the use and obtain substantially all the economic benefits of an identified asset, meaning they create an asset and liability for lessees. Lessees will classify leases as either finance leases (comparable to current capital leases) or operating leases (comparable to current operating leases). Costs for a finance lease will be split between amortization and interest expense, with a single lease expense reported for operating leases. This update also will require both qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company has determined that the provisions of ASU 2016-02 may result in an increase in assets to recognize the present value of the lease obligations with a corresponding increase in liabilities for leases in the future however the Company was not a lessee on any lease agreements at December 31, 2018. During the first quarter 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02. See Note M – Right of Use Leased Asset and Lease Liability for discussion of the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this ASU replace the current incurred loss impairment methodology 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. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. During the first quarter 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The objective of ASU 2017-12 is to expand hedge accounting for both financial (interest rate) and commodity risks and create more transparency around how economic results are presented, both on the face of the financial statements and in the footnotes. ASU 2017-12 will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods in the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for any interim or annual period. During the first quarter 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2017-12 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
