RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On January 30, 2017, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting". Upon adoption of this update, all excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to share-based payment awards are recognized in the provision for income taxes in the period in which they occur. Previously these amounts were reflected in paid-in capital. In addition, upon adoption these amounts are classified as an operating activity in the consolidated statements of cash flows in the period in which they occur. Previously, these amounts were reflected as a financing activity. Cash paid by the Company to tax authorities when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes will continue to be classified as a financing activity in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Stock-based compensation expense will continue to reflect estimated forfeitures of share-based awards. The Company has adopted the applicable provisions of ASU No. 2016-09 prospectively.

As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09, the Company recognized $20 million and $85 million of excess tax benefits related to share-based payment awards in its provision for income taxes during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2017, respectively. The recognition of these benefits contributed $0.02 and $0.07 to Diluted Earnings per Share for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2017, respectively.
