Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. These changes became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018 and have been reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements (See “Note 4 – Revenue”).

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” This update amends the requirements for assets and liabilities recognized for all leases longer than twelve months. Lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability measured on a discounted basis, which is the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. This standard will be effective for financial statements issued by public companies for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which clarifies eight specific cash flow issues in an effort to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. These changes became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018 and have been reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Retrospective adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact to the Company’s presentation of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Restricted Cash,” which amends ASC 230 to provide clarifying guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Additional disclosure is required to reconcile between the statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows when the statement of financial position includes more than one line item for cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. These changes became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018 and included $2,228 and $2,000 of restricted cash in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. A reconciliation of restricted cash for each period is included within this footnote.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805),” which provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. These changes became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact to these condensed consolidated financial statements. This standard will be applied to all future business acquisition and disposal transactions.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting.”  This update clarifies which changes to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification account if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification as an equity or liability instrument are the same before and after the modification. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. These changes became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018. This standard will be applied to all future modifications of share-based payment awards.
