New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 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 and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the effective date for implementation was extended to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, our fiscal 2019. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our financial statements.

We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant effect on our financial statements.
