Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements

Significant Accounting Policies

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial position in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended January 3, 2016 under the caption “Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and New Accounting Pronouncements” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” set forth in Part II, Item 7, a discussion of the Company’s most significant accounting policies, which are those most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

The Company did not make changes in any significant accounting policies during the first three quarters of 2016. Any changes in significant accounting policies and estimates are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company during the quarter in which a change is made.

 

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which addresses presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows, with the objective to reduce diversity in practice. The amendment applicable to the Company addresses contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and states (i) cash payments made soon after an acquisition’s consummation date should be classified as cash outflows for investing activities; (ii) cash payments made thereafter should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities up to the amount of the original contingent consideration; and (iii) cash payments made in excess of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified as cash outflows for operating activities. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, however if an entity elects to early adopt one amendment, it must adopt all amendments included in the guidance. The Company adopted the new pronouncements in the third quarter of 2016 and there was no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03 “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires all cost incurred to issue debt be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying value of the debt. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015‑15 “Presentation And Subsequent Measurement Of Debt Issuance Costs Associated With Line-Of-Credit Arrangements, Amendments To SEC Paragraphs Pursuant To Staff Announcement At June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting.” ASU 2015-15 clarified that an entity can present debt issuance costs of a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The new guidance was effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The standard was retrospectively adopted by the Company on January 4, 2016, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At January 3, 2016, $3.1 million and $1.1 million of debt issuance costs were reclassified to long-term debt from other assets and prepaid expenses and other current assets, respectively. At September 27, 2015, $0.4 million and $1.0 million of debt issuance costs were reclassified to long-term debt from other assets and prepaid expenses and other current assets, respectively.

 

Recently Issued Pronouncements

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 “Improvements to Employees Share Based Payment Accounting,” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee-share based transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases.” The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases (other than leases meeting the definition of a short-term lease).

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The new guidance revises the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes in financial liabilities measured at fair value. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The new guidance requires an entity to measure most inventory “at lower of cost and net realizable value” thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” which specifies the responsibility an entity’s management has to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014‑09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance was to be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Deferral of the Effective Date”, which deferred the effective date to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In March 2016, April 2016 and May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 “Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net”), ASU 2016-11 “Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16, Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting” and ASU 2016-12 “Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” respectively. The new guidance that amends certain aspects of the May 2014 new guidance. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
