3. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted accounting standards (“ASU”) update No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash”. The Company now includes restricted cash as part of cash and cash equivalents. The Company adopted this policy on a retrospective basis.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The updated guidance, and subsequent clarifications, collectively referred to as accounting standards codification (“ASC”) 606, require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the guidance requires the disclosure of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted this standard, utilizing the modified retrospective approach, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard recognized in deficit. Accordingly, comparative prior period information has not been restated and continues to be reported under that accounting standard. The adoption of ASC 606 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2018.

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock CompensationTopic 718Scope of Modification Accounting (ASU 2017-09) to provide clarity and reduce both the (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when changing the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards. Under ASU 2017-09, modification accounting is required to be applied unless all of the following are the same immediately before and after the change:

1.

The award’s fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value if those measurement methods are used).

2.

The award’s vesting conditions.

3.

The award’s classification as an equity or liability instrument.

 
The adoption of this pronouncement had no impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2018.
