Accounting Standards Adopted in Fiscal 2018 and Recently Issued Accounting Standards Applicable to Future Years

Accounting Standards Adopted in Fiscal 2019

In February 2016, the FASB issued revised lease accounting guidance. The guidance requires companies to record substantially all leases, including operating leases, as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. For these leases, we are required to recognize (1) an operating lease asset which will represent our right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for a lease term and (2) a lease liability equal to our obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis. The guidance was adopted on the first day of the First Quarter of Fiscal 2019 using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach allows us to apply the standard and related disclosures to the financial statements for the period of adoption and apply the previous guidance in the prior year comparative periods. The adoption of the new guidance had a material impact on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as a result of the non-cash recognition of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities, but did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. We elected the transition relief package practical expedients by applying previous accounting conclusions to all leases that existed prior to the adoption date. Therefore, we have not reassessed (1) whether existing or expired contracts contain a lease, (2) lease classification for existing or expired leases, or (3) the accounting for initial direct costs that were previously capitalized. We did not elect the practical expedient to use hindsight for leases existing at the adoption date. Refer to Note 5 for additional disclosures and information about accounting for leases.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Applicable to Future Periods

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance, as amended, on the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. This guidance amends the impairment model by requiring that companies use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain financial instruments, including trade receivables. This guidance will be effective in Fiscal 2020 with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements pending adoption not discussed above are either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
