New Accounting Standards
New Accounting Standards
In September, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments to simplify the accounting for measurement-period adjustments. This ASU was issued in response to stakeholder feedback that restatements of prior periods to reflect adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination increase the cost and complexity of financial reporting but do not significantly improve the usefulness of the information. Under the ASU, in a business combination, an acquirer must recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The ASU also requires acquirers to present separately on the face of the income statement, or disclose in the notes, the portion of the amount recorded in current period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The Company is required to apply these new requirements prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the application of this update will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated With Line-of-Credit Arrangements — Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting to clarify the SEC staff's position on presenting and measuring debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line-of-credit arrangements given the absence of authoritative guidance on this topic in ASU 2015-03. The SEC staff has announced that it would "not object to any entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement". The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements
In July, 2015, the FASB released ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. Under this ASU, companies are required to measure inventory using the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This ASU impacts companies who use the first-in, first-out method (FIFO), the average costing method, or methods of inventory measurement other than the last-in, first-out (LIFO) and retail inventory methods, which have been excluded from the scope of this ASU due to the substantial cost and burden of transitioning these methods. The Company is required to apply these new requirements prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including the interim periods therein. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In April, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investment in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share ("NAV") (or its Equivalent). This ASU removes from the fair value hierarchy, investments for which the practical expedient is used to measure fair value at NAV. Instead, an entity is required to include those investments as a reconciling line item so that the total fair value amount of investments in the disclosure is consistent with the amount on the balance sheet. Further, entities must provide the disclosure only for investments for which they elect to use the NAV practical expedient to determine fair value. For public companies, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In April, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-04, Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer's Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets, which permits a reporting entity with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a month-end to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month-end that is closest to the entity's fiscal year-end and apply that practical expedient consistently from year to year. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance should be applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In April, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance will be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. This update requires the Company to recognize revenue at amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services at the time of transfer. In doing so, the Company will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under today’s guidance. Such estimates include identifying performance obligations in the contracts, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The Company can either apply a full retrospective adoption or a modified retrospective adoption. The Company is required to adopt the new requirements in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new requirements to its consolidated financial statements.
