New Accounting Standards and Updates from the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
 
In
June 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
326
).
The new standard amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities. This ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019,
including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does
not
expect the adoption of ASU
2016
-
13
to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In
August 2018
the SEC issued the final rule on Disclosures About Changes in Stockholders’ Equity For filings on Form
10
-Q, which extends to interim periods the annual requirement in SEC Regulation S-
X,
Rule
3
-
04
to disclose (
1
) changes in stockholders’ equity and (
2
) the amount of dividends per share for each class of shares (as opposed to common stock only, as previously required). Pursuant to the final rule, registrants must now analyze changes in stockholders’ equity, in the form of a reconciliation, for “the current and comparative year-to-date [interim] periods, with subtotals for each interim period,” i.e., a reconciliation covering each period for which an income statement is presented. Rule
3
-
04
permits the disclosure of changes in stockholders’ equity (including dividend-per-share amounts) to be made either in a separate financial statement or in the notes to the financial statements. The final rule is effective for all filings made on or after
November 5, 2018.
The staff of the SEC has indicated it would
not
object if the filer’s
first
presentation of the changes in shareholders’ equity is included in its Form
10
-Q for the quarter that begins after the effective date of the amendments. The Company adopted the final rule in its Form
10Q
for the quarter ending
March 30, 2019.
There was
no
material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
 
In
February 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
02,
Leases (Topic
842
),
in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU
2016
-
02
requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU
2016
-
02
is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2018 (
including interim periods within those periods) using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU
2016
-
02
in the
first
quarter of
2019.
A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application.  An entity
may
choose to use either (
1
) its effective date or (
2
) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application.  If an entity chooses the
second
option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered between the date of initial application and the effective date.  The Company adopted the new standard on
December 30, 2018
and chose the effective date of initial application.  Consequently, financial information will
not
be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will
not
be provided for dates and periods before
December 30, 2018.
