Newly Issued Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments – Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” replaces the current incurred loss impairment method with a method that reflects expected credit losses. We plan to adopt the new standard on its revised effective date for our fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2022, by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of Retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes – Issued in December 2019, ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is designed to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. ASU No. 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; this ASU allows for early adoption in any interim period after issuance of the update. The Company is currently assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Debt with Conversion and Other Options, and Derivatives and Hedging on Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity – Issued in August 2020, ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the EPS calculation in certain areas. ASU No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years; this ASU allows for early adoption at the beginning of the fiscal year. The Company is currently assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
