Recent Accounting Pronouncements



Adopted accounting pronouncements



In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement". This ASU provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses.  If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract.  The ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  Early adoption is permitted.  The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method.  The Company adopted ASU 2015-05 during the quarter ended April 1, 2017 and the adoption of the standard did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory".  For entities that do not measure inventory using the last-in, first-out or retail inventory method, ASU 2015-11 changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value, where net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.  The ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.    The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 during the quarter ended April 1, 2017 and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 



Issued accounting pronouncements



In May 2014, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).  ASU 2014-09 includes a five-step process by which entities will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The standard also will require enhanced disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In July 2015, the FASB announced a decision to defer the effective date of this ASU. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.    The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period (full retrospective) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application (modified retrospective).  The Company plans to adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and apply the modified retrospective approach.



The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this ASU on the specific areas that apply to the Company and their potential impact to its processes, accounting, financial reporting, disclosures, and controls.  At this point, the Company has determined that the overall impact of adopting this ASU will not be material.  This ASU will primarily involve updating revenue related internal control documentation and expanding revenue disclosures in our periodic filings.  In addition to the documentation updates, the Company is considering a change in the methodology for deferring revenue on undelivered orders, which would not change the total amount of revenue recognized, but would accelerate the timing of when revenue is recognized. None of these changes are expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.



In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).  ASU 2016-02 is intended 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.  Additionally, the ASU will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements.  The update requires lessees to apply a modified retrospective approach for recognition and disclosure, beginning with the earliest period presented.  The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.



 In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash". The ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-18 will have a material impact on its statement of cash flows.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.”  ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by eliminating the Step 2 requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill.  Instead, the under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount.  An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting units fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.  The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
