(2) Recently Issued Accounting Standards. In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment - Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." ASU 2014-08 changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The ASU also expands the disclosure requirements for transactions that meet the definition of a discontinued operation and requires entities to disclose information about individually significant components that are disposed of or held for sale and do not qualify as discontinued operations. This new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. Effective immediately, the Company will apply the new guidance, as applicable, to future disposals of components or classifications as held for sale.
