Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance requiring entities to apply a new model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers and the reporting of principal versus agent considerations. The guidance superseded the then-applicable revenue recognition guidance and requires entities to evaluate their revenue recognition arrangements using a five step model to determine when a customer obtains control of a transferred good or service. The new revenue standard Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue Recognition, (ASC 606), became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, and was adopted using the modified retrospective method. See note 4 for further discussion.

Accounting for Leases

The FASB issued guidance to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. In accordance with the updated guidance, lessees are required to recognize the right of use assets and lease liabilities arising from operating leases on the balance sheet. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within 2019. The Company has evaluated its leasing arrangements under the issued guidance and determined all leases are classified as operating leases and will be recognized as assets and future payments as liabilities on the balance sheet. Based on the Company's evaluation to date, the Company expects that the adoption of the new leasing standards will result in the recognition of material right-to-use assets and liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The adoption of the new leasing standards is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated statements of income. The Company elected to utilize the practical expedients when adopting the standard.

Accounting for Non-Employee Share Based Payment Arrangements

The FASB issued guidance to expand the scope of stock compensation guidance to include stock compensation granted to nonemployees. Previously, stock compensation granted to nonemployees was subject to vesting date, as opposed to grant date, fair value principles that required companies to re-measure fair value at each reporting period until settlement for equity classified awards. The guidance for non-employee stock compensation accounting for equity-classified awards was updated, and these awards are now subject to fixed grant date fair value principles which eliminates the variable mark-to-market accounting. The non-employee stock awards granted by the Company have a service condition but no performance condition, each of which is measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The guidance was adopted early and applied as of July 1, 2018 and reflected in the Company's financial statements. The impact upon adoption was not material and no cumulative adjustment was recorded.

Measuring Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

The FASB issued updated guidance on measuring credit losses on financial instruments. The guidance removes the thresholds that companies apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, receivables, and held-to-maturity debt securities. Prior to the updated guidance, credit losses are recognized when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The revised guidance removes all recognition thresholds and requires companies to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that a company expected to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact to its consolidated financial statements.
