The Company And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
NOTE 1-THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of GSI Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“GSI” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These interim financial statements contain all adjustments (which consist of only normal, recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the interim financial information included therein. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. However, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. Significant accounting policies The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Recent accounting pronouncements In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-09, “ Scope of Modification Accounting ”. ASU 2017-09 amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements and provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. This guidance clarifies that an entity will not apply modification accounting to a share-based payment award if all of the following are the same immediately before and after the change: (i) the fair value of the award, (ii) the vesting conditions of the award, and (iii) the classification of the award as an equity instrument or liability instrument. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, including adoption in any interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, " Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment". The standard eliminates the second step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “ Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash” . ASU 2016-18 requires entities to include in their cash and cash-equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows those amounts that are deemed to be restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. As a result, companies will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “ Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory .” ASU 2016-16 requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs and eliminates the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory . The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. ASU 2016-16 is applied on a modified retrospective basis in the period of adoption. The adoption of this guidance resulted in a derecognition of a prepaid tax asset of $595,000 related to a prior period intra-entity asset transfer, with an offsetting reduction to retained earnings. Because of the Company’s valuation allowance in the United States, there was no change to the Company’s net deferred tax assets. The derecognition of the prepaid tax asset as of April 1, 2017 decreased the Company’s income tax expense by $11,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and is projected to decrease the Company’s fiscal 2018 tax expense by $43,000. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “ Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. ASU 2016-15 adds or clarifies guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in the update provide guidance on eight specific cash flow issues, and are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments to the guidance should be applied using a retrospective transition method for each period presented and, if it is impracticable to apply all of the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 , “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans, and other financial instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted beginning April 1, 2019. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions , including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The Company has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures as part of the compensation cost of equity awards. ASU 2016-09 is applied prospectively to all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies resulting from settlements after the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 resulted in an increase to the net operating loss carryforward deferred tax asset and a corresponding increase in the valuation allowance of $654,000 attributable to excess tax benefits not previously recognized as they did not reduce income taxes payable. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842) .” The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, “ Elements of Financial Statements ,” and, therefore, recognition of those lease assets and lease liabilities represents a change of previous GAAP, which did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous GAAP. Although the Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, the Company expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “ Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income and simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. The accounting standard update also updates certain presentation and disclosure requirements. This accounting standard update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “ Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This standard update intends to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory, excluding inventory accounted for under the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory methods. The update replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost and net realizable value test. Under the current guidance, market could be replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Implementation of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers .” The new accounting standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU No. 2014-09 provides for one of two methods of transition: retrospective application to each prior period presented; or recognition of the cumulative effect of retrospective application of the new standard in the period of initial application. The Company presently expects to select the modified retrospective transition method. Assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met, it is likely that the new guidance would require the Company to recognize revenue and cost relating to distributor sales upon product delivery, subject to estimated allowance for distributor price adjustments and rights of return . In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this additional guidance is expected to have upon adoption.

Goodwill.
NOTE 4-GOODWILL.	NOTE 4—GOODWILL Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The Company tests for goodwill impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset is more likely than not impaired. The Company has one reporting unit. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on the last day of February in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year. The Company had a goodwill balance of $8.0 million as of both March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017. The goodwill resulted from the acquisition of MikaMonu Group Ltd. (“MikaMonu”) in fiscal 2016. The Company utilized a two-step quantitative analysis to complete its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 and concluded that there was no impairment, as the fair value of its sole reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. The Company determined that the second step of the impairment test was not necessary. No triggering event took place subsequent to the fiscal 2017 annual assessment that necessitated a quantitative impairment analysis for the Company’s one reporting unit.

INCOME TAXES
NOTE 5-INCOME TAXES	NOTE 5—INCOME TAXES The current portion of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits was $0 at both June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017. The long-term portion at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 was $247,000 and $244,000, respectively, of which the timing of the resolution is uncertain. As of June 30, 2017, $2.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits had been recorded as a reduction to net deferred tax assets. As of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company’s net deferred tax assets of $10.4 million and $8.9 million, respectively, were subject to a full valuation allowance. Management believes that within the next twelve months the Company will have no reduction in uncertain tax benefits, including interest and penalties, related to positions taken with respect to credits and loss carryforwards on previously filed tax returns. The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Fiscal years 2013 through 2017 remain open to examination by federal tax authorities, and fiscal years 2011 through 2017 remain open to examination by California tax authorities. The Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate was approximately (9.9%) and (7.0%) as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The annual effective tax rates as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 vary from the United States statutory income tax rate primarily due to valuation allowances in the United States, whereby pre-tax losses do not result in the recognition of corresponding income tax benefits and expenses, and the foreign tax differential.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
NOTE 6-FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS	NOTE 6—FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value measurements Authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and related disclosures. The guidance applies to all financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis. The guidance requires fair value measurement to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1: Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The fair value of available-for-sale securities included in the Level 1 category is based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market. As of June 30, 2017, the Level 1 category included money market funds of $3.7 million, which were included in cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Level 2: Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of available-for-sale securities included in the Level 2 category is based on the market values obtained from an independent pricing service that were evaluated using pricing models that vary by asset class and may incorporate available trade, bid and other market information and price quotes from well-established independent pricing vendors and broker-dealers. As of June 30, 2017, the Level 2 category included short-term investments $17.2 million and long-term investments of $14.1 million, which were comprised of certificates of deposit, corporate debt securities and government and agency securities.

Available-for-sale debt securities with maturities greater than twelve months are classified as long-term investments when they are not intended for use in current operations. Investments in available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value with unrecognized gains (losses), net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company had money market funds of $3.7 million and $6.3 million at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively, included in cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company monitors its investments for impairment periodically and records appropriate reductions in carrying values when declines are determined to be other-than-temporary.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES.
NOTE 7-COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	NOTE 7—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Indemnification obligations The Company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise in the context of contracts entered into by the Company, under which the Company agrees to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations and covenants related to such matters as title to assets sold and certain intellectual property rights. In each of these circumstances, payment by the Company’s is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other party’s claims. Further, the Company’s obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by it under these agreements. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments that may be required under these or similar agreements due to the conditional nature of the Company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the Company under these agreements have not had a material effect on its business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. Product warranties The Company warrants its products to be free of defects generally for a period of three years. The Company estimates its warranty costs based on historical warranty claim experience and includes such costs in cost of revenues. Warranty costs and the accrued warranty liability were not material as of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 and for the three months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016.

The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and revises the original estimates, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. No tax benefit related to stock-based compensation was recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2017 or June 30, 2016 due to a full valuation allowance. There were no windfall tax benefits realized from exercised stock options in either of these periods. Compensation cost capitalized within inventory at June 30, 2017 was immaterial. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s total unrecognized compensation cost was $3.2 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.23 years.

The Company And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation	Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of GSI Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“GSI” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These interim financial statements contain all adjustments (which consist of only normal, recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the interim financial information included therein. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. However, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
Significant accounting policies	Significant accounting policies The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Recent accounting pronouncements	Recent accounting pronouncements In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2017-09, “ Scope of Modification Accounting ”. ASU 2017-09 amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements and provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. This guidance clarifies that an entity will not apply modification accounting to a share-based payment award if all of the following are the same immediately before and after the change: (i) the fair value of the award, (ii) the vesting conditions of the award, and (iii) the classification of the award as an equity instrument or liability instrument. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, including adoption in any interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, " Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment". The standard eliminates the second step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “ Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash” . ASU 2016-18 requires entities to include in their cash and cash-equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows those amounts that are deemed to be restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. As a result, companies will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “ Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory .” ASU 2016-16 requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs and eliminates the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory . The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. ASU 2016-16 is applied on a modified retrospective basis in the period of adoption. The adoption of this guidance resulted in a derecognition of a prepaid tax asset of $595,000 related to a prior period intra-entity asset transfer, with an offsetting reduction to retained earnings. Because of the Company’s valuation allowance in the United States, there was no change to the Company’s net deferred tax assets. The derecognition of the prepaid tax asset as of April 1, 2017 decreased the Company’s income tax expense by $11,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017 and is projected to decrease the Company’s fiscal 2018 tax expense by $43,000. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “ Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. ASU 2016-15 adds or clarifies guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in the update provide guidance on eight specific cash flow issues, and are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments to the guidance should be applied using a retrospective transition method for each period presented and, if it is impracticable to apply all of the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new guidance will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 , “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans, and other financial instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted beginning April 1, 2019. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions , including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The Company has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures as part of the compensation cost of equity awards. ASU 2016-09 is applied prospectively to all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies resulting from settlements after the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 resulted in an increase to the net operating loss carryforward deferred tax asset and a corresponding increase in the valuation allowance of $654,000 attributable to excess tax benefits not previously recognized as they did not reduce income taxes payable. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842) .” The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. All leases create an asset and a liability for the lessee in accordance with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, “ Elements of Financial Statements ,” and, therefore, recognition of those lease assets and lease liabilities represents a change of previous GAAP, which did not require lease assets and lease liabilities to be recognized for most leases. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous GAAP. Although the Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, the Company expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “ Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income and simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. The accounting standard update also updates certain presentation and disclosure requirements. This accounting standard update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “ Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This standard update intends to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory, excluding inventory accounted for under the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory methods. The update replaces the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost and net realizable value test. Under the current guidance, market could be replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted ASU 2015-11 in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Implementation of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers .” The new accounting standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU No. 2014-09 provides for one of two methods of transition: retrospective application to each prior period presented; or recognition of the cumulative effect of retrospective application of the new standard in the period of initial application. The Company presently expects to select the modified retrospective transition method. Assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met, it is likely that the new guidance would require the Company to recognize revenue and cost relating to distributor sales upon product delivery, subject to estimated allowance for distributor price adjustments and rights of return . In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this additional guidance is expected to have upon adoption.
