New Accounting Guidance	3.NEW ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE Accounting Guidance Implemented Share-Based Compensation In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update to simplify the accounting for employee share-based payments, including the income tax impacts, the classification on the statement of cash flows, and forfeitures. The amendments are effective for fiscal year 2018, with early adoption permitted. As of the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, we have adopted this guidance. Share-Based Compensation In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted the standard effective October 1, 2017. The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Going Concern In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance regarding management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the issuance of the financial statements. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosures would be required. The Company adopted the standard effective October 1, 2017. This guidance did not have a significant impact on our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. New Accounting Guidance to be Implemented Net Periodic Pension Costs In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance which requires an entity to report the service cost component of pension expense in the same line item as other compensation costs. The other components of net (benefit) cost will be required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The components of the net (benefit) cost are shown in Note 15, “Retirement Benefits”. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. Derecognition of Non-financial Assets In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance which clarifies the scope of the derecognition of nonfinancial assets, the definition of in-substance financial assets, and impacts the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets by requiring full gain recognition upon the sale. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and permits the use of either retrospective or modified retrospective methods of adoption. In addition, an entity is required to apply the amendments in this update at the same time that it applies the amendments in the revenue recognition standard. The Company will adopt the standard effective October 1, 2018. The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance simplifying the test for goodwill impairment, which removes certain steps from the goodwill impairment test. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those periods, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company will adopt the standard effective October 1, 2017. The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Business Combinations In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance on the definition of a business in business combinations. The guidance clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company will adopt the standard effective October 1, 2018. The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance based on the principle that revenue is recognized in an amount expected to be collected and to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date by one year, while providing the option to early adopt the standard on the original effective date. In December 2016 there were further updates to the original guidance that did not revise the effective date. The guidance can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company will adopt the standard effective October 1, 2018. The standard could impact the amount and timing of revenue that we recognize. We are currently evaluating the adoption alternatives and impact that this standard and respective updates will have on our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the measurement of inventory recorded using either the FIFO or average cost basis by changing the subsequent measurement guidance from lower of cost or market to the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory measured using LIFO is not impacted. The guidance is effective for us beginning in fiscal year 2018 and will be applied prospectively, with early adoption permitted. This guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance which requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases, including operating leases, with a term in excess of 12 months. The guidance also expands the quantitative and qualitative disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective in fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently the lessee under various agreements for distribution equipment and vehicles that are currently accounted for as operating leases as discussed in Note 12, “Leases”. The new guidance requires the lessee to record operating leases on the balance sheet with a right-of-use asset and corresponding liability for future payment obligations. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash Flow Statement Classification In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance to reduce diversity in practice on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2019, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on our Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.
