11. ASC 750-80 No. 2011-09 September 2011 (Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Multiemployer Plans) (Continued) Significant Changes Enhance disclosures to included the financial health of all significant plans and assist a financial statement user with accessing additional information on the plan

17. Priority Projects Leases Revenue Recognition Other Projects Financial statement presentation Disclosures about Risk/Uncertainties and Liquidation Basis of Accounting (Going Concern) Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Equity Loss Contingencies

18. Leases Timeline Exposure draft issued August 17, 2010 Comment period initially through December 14, 2010 Re-release of exposure draft expected Q4 2011

19. Leases (Continued) Goals Of The Project Improve information available to investors about the financial effects of lease contracts Provide relevant information about a company’s rights and obligations Remove the ‘bright-line’ distinction between capital and operating leases

20. Leases (Continued) Goals Of The Project (Continued) Provide more timely information about various lease options to financial statement users Simplify financial metrics

21. Leases (Continued) Changes From Current Methodology All leases will be recorded on the balance sheet Exception for short term leases (12 months, including all options to renew) Lease term Non-cancellable periods plus renewal periods with significant economic incentive …... To renew, or... To not exercise an option to terminate

22. Leases (Continued) Changes From Current Methodology (Continued) Applies to existing and new leases Initial recognition Record liability to make lease payments (including residual value guarantees) at NPV of payment stream Record “a right to use” asset on the balance sheet for the same amount Variable lease payments

23. Leases (Continued) Changes From Current Methodology (Continued) Subsequent recognition Liability Measure using effective interest rate method ‹Rate stated in the lease ‹Incremental borrowing rate Lease Amortization Systematic basis reflecting the pattern of consumption of expected future economic benefits

24. Leases (Continued) Changes From Current Methodology (Continued) Disclosures Reconciliation of beginning/ending right-of-use assets - by class Reconciliation of beginning/ending liability - in total Maturity schedule (same as currently required for debt) Detail of lease related expenses - in tabular format Amortization of the asset Interest expense Incremental variable lease payments Lease expense on short term leases (scope exception) Principal and interest paid

25. Leases (Continued) Impact/Considerations Will affect most every company’s balance sheet and its financial ratios EBITDA: Rent expense replace with interest and depreciation Cannot report interest expense + amortization expense as rent/lease expense Could affect debt covenants

26. Revenue Recognition Goal is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and IFRS Proposed guidance would replace most of the guidance in ASC 605

27. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Also contains guidance for accounting for contract costs Application of Principle Identification of contract Identification of performance obligations Determination of transaction price Allocation of transaction price to performance obligations Recognition of revenue on satisfaction of each performance obligation

28. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Presentation Separate Disclosure of Contract Assets / Liabilities Don’t have to use those exact titles, but must be able to distinguish between contract assets and receivables Liabilities for onerous performance obligations must be presented separate from contract liabilities

29. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Presentation (Continued) Disaggregation of Revenue Revenue should be disaggregated on face of statements or in footnotes Disaggregation criteria will be disclosed, based on entity accounting policy - example categories: Type of good or service (e.g., major product lines) Geography Customer or contract type

30. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Disclosure of Remaining Performance Obligations Disclose the amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracts that have both of the following: A) An original expected contract duration of more than one year, and B) Terms and conditions that result in the entity, in practice, being required to apply each step of the revenue model in order to recognize revenue Disclose when amounts are expected to be recognized, either in quantitative time bands or by using both quantitative and qualitative information

31. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Disclosures about Assets from Contract Acquisition or Fulfillment Costs Rollforward disclosure from beginning to end of period, including: Additions Amortization Impairments Disclose accounting policy for amortization of costs

32. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Implications Debt covenants and other GAAP-based agreements May impact IT systems, in order to collect data required for additional financial statement disclosures Processes and controls may change to capture appropriate accounting data / estimates May impact how budgets are developed and updated Don’t forget to consider tax implications of any changes Possible retrospective application could require dual sets of books

33. Revenue Recognition (Continued) Implementation date is to be determined Public entities: No earlier than annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015 Nonpublic entities: At least one year after public entities.

36. Private Company Financial Reporting - Blue Ribbon Panel (Continued) Board’s mission - “establish exceptions and modifications to US GAAP for private companies while ensuring that such exceptions and modifications provide decision-useful information to lenders and other users of private company financial reports” Assumption is that lenders constitute the largest user base of private company financial reports The new board would have authority to modify existing and future GAAP for private entities
