Significant Accounting Policies

2. Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company’s fiscal 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

(a) Recent Accounting Pronouncements –

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which simplifies the financial statement presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that deferred income tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent within a classified statement of financial position. Adoption and implementation of the guidance is not required by the Company until issuance of fiscal 2018 first quarter financial statements. However, in light of early adoption being permitted and believing the required presentation results in more useful and comparable information related to our net deferred income tax assets, the Company has chosen to adopt the guidance as of December 31, 2015 and retrospectively apply the guidance to the prior period presented. This retrospective application results in $3,431 of deferred income tax assets being reclassified from current assets to non-current assets in the September 30, 2015 balance sheet included herein. Adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

Issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

(b) Reclassifications –

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current fiscal period presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net earnings or shareholders’ equity.
