| ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-18 that requires amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents 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 new standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the retrospective transition method. Its adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as “lessees”, to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual years, and early application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers, that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. It also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. In July 2015, the FASB approved the deferral of the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 3 for additional information.
