ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
As result of the early adoption of ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes during the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, WGL Holdings, Inc. (WGL) and Washington Gas Light Company (Washington Gas) are recasting certain information with respect to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015 (the “2015 Form 10-K”) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as of November 19, 2015. ASU 2015-17 amends the requirements to separately classify deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts on a classified balance sheet and requires all deferred income tax liabilities and assets to be offset by taxing jurisdiction and classified as noncurrent. WGL and Washington Gas applied ASU 2015-17 retrospectively. As a result of the retrospective adoption, $32.8 million and $24.7 million were reclassified from "Current Assets-Deferred income taxes" to "Deferred Credits-Deferred income taxes" on WGL's and Washington Gas' September 30, 2015 balance sheets, respectively, and $26.7 million and $22.9 million were reclassified from "Current Assets-Deferred income taxes" to "Deferred Credits-Deferred income taxes" on WGL's and Washington Gas' September 30, 2014 balance sheets, respectively. The Items in the 2015 Form 10-K that have been recast to reflect these reclassifications are presented in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Form 8-K.
The information included in this Form 8-K and related exhibits is presented for informational purposes in connection with the reporting changes described above and does not represent an amendment or restatement of previously issued financial statements. This Form 8-K and the related exhibits do not modify or update the disclosures in the 2015 Form 10-K in any way, nor do they reflect any subsequent information or events, other than as described above. This Form 8-K and the related exhibits should be read in conjunction with the 2015 Form 10-K and any documents filed by WGL or Washington Gas with the SEC subsequent to the 2015 Form 10-K, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on February 5, 2016.
