Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forestar Group Inc., all subsidiaries, ventures and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. We account for our investment in other entities in which we have significant influence over operations and financial policies using the equity method. We eliminate all material intercompany accounts and transactions. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated pass-through entities are recognized before income taxes. We prepare our unaudited interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. As a result, they do not include all the information and disclosures required for complete financial statements. However, in our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items unless otherwise noted. We make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate. These interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. For further information, please read the financial statements included in our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We divested substantially all of our oil and gas working interest properties in 2016, and as a result we have reported the results of operations as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . There was no significant activity related to these operations during the three months ended March 31, 2018 . The transactions included in our net income in the consolidated statements of operations are the same as those that would be presented in other comprehensive income. Thus, our net income equates to other comprehensive income. On October 5, 2017, we became a majority-owned subsidiary of D.R. Horton, Inc. ("D.R. Horton") by virtue of a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of D.R. Horton (the "Merger"). Immediately following the Merger, D.R. Horton owned approximately 75 percent of our outstanding common stock. In connection with the Merger, we entered into certain agreements with D.R. Horton including a Stockholder’s Agreement, a Master Supply Agreement, and a Shared Services Agreement. For a discussion of the terms of the Merger and for additional information regarding these agreements, see "Business - D.R. Horton Merger" in Part I, Item 1 of our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. D.R. Horton is considered a related party of Forestar under U.S. GAAP. We are evaluating the impact of any potential changes in our accounting policies and related party transactions with D.R. Horton post-merger and will update our disclosures accordingly in future periods. Reclassifications Certain items have been reclassified from other operating expenses to cost of real estate sales and other in the prior year financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications had no effect on our consolidated operating results or balance sheet. Change in Fiscal Year As a result of the Merger, we changed our fiscal year-end from December 31 to September 30, effective January 1, 2018. This change aligns our fiscal year-end reporting calendar with D.R. Horton. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements | New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements Pending Accounting Standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The updated standard becomes effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). We currently anticipate adopting the standard using the cumulative catch-up transition method. We anticipate this standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. While we are continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we expect revenue related to residential lot and tract sales to remain substantially unchanged. Due to the complexity of certain of our real estate sale transactions, the revenue recognition treatment required under the standard will be dependent on contract-specific terms, and may vary in some instances from recognition at the time of the sale closing. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner that is similar to today's accounting. This guidance also eliminates today's real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. This guidance is effective for us October 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. We are currently evaluating the effect the updated standard will have on our financial position and disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) , to address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). This ASU requires that a statement of cash flow explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash investments. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 will modify our current disclosures and reclassifications relating to the consolidated statements of cash flows, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), to provide guidance about which changes to terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we began managing our operations through two business segments, real estate and other. Historically, we managed our operations through our real estate segment, mineral resources segment (previously referred to as oil and gas) and other segment (previously referred to as other natural resources). Our real estate segment is our core business and acquires land and developed lots, secures entitlements and develops infrastructure on our lands for single-family residential and mixed-use communities. Our other segment consists of non-core water interests in 1.5 million acres, including a 45% nonparticipating royalty interest in groundwater produced or withdrawn for commercial purposes or sold from 1.4 million acres in Texas, Louisiana, Georgia and Alabama that are classified as assets held for sale at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , and 20,000 acres of groundwater leases in central Texas. We divested substantially all of our oil and gas working interest properties in 2016 and sold all of our remaining owned mineral assets and related entities in 2017. We have reclassified the results of operations from our mineral resources segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 to our other segment. There was no significant activity for these operations during three months ended March 31, 2018 . The accounting policies of the reporting segments are described throughout Note 1 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 . Total assets allocated by segment are as follows: March 31, December 31, (In thousands) Real estate $ 291,307 $ 386,222 Other 3,331 3,346 Assets not allocated to segments (a) 486,460 372,344 $ 781,098 $ 761,912 _________________________ (a) Assets not allocated to segments at March 31, 2018 principally consist of cash and cash equivalents of $436,401,000 and restricted cash of $40,013,000 . Assets not allocated to segments at December 31, 2017 principally consist of cash and cash equivalents of $321,783,000 and restricted cash of $40,017,000 . We evaluate performance based on segment earnings (loss) before unallocated items and income taxes. Segment earnings (loss) consist of operating income, equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated ventures, gain on sales of assets, interest income and net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Items not allocated to our business segments consist of general and administrative expense, share-based and long-term incentive compensation, interest expense, and other corporate interest and other income. Our revenues are derived from our U.S. operations and all of our assets are located in the U.S. Segment revenues and earnings are as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 2017 (In thousands) Revenues: Real estate $ 22,575 $ 20,752 Other 24 1,553 Total revenues $ 22,599 $ 22,305 Segment earnings (loss): Real estate $ 9,703 $ 10,473 Other (553 ) 37,429 Total segment earnings 9,150 47,902 Items not allocated to segments (4,550 ) (6,904 ) Income from continuing operations before taxes attributable to Forestar Group Inc. $ 4,600 $ 40,998 In the three months ended March 31, 2017 , we sold all of our remaining owned mineral assets for approximately $85,700,000 which resulted in the recognition of a gain on the sale of these assets of $74,215,000 which is reflected within other segment earnings. As a result of this sale we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $37,900,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2017 which is reflected within other segment earnings. Items not allocated to segments consist of: Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 2017 (In thousands) General and administrative expense $ (3,653 ) $ (4,028 ) Share-based and long-term incentive compensation expense (136 ) (895 ) Interest expense (2,136 ) (2,235 ) Other corporate interest and other income 1,375 254 $ (4,550 ) $ (6,904 ) |

("Starwood") to sell 24 legacy projects for $232,000,000 . This strategic asset sale included projects owned both directly and indirectly through ventures and consisted of approximately 750 developed and under development residential lots, over 4,000 future undeveloped residential lots (including all real estate associated with the Cibolo Canyons mixed-use development), 730 unentitled acres in California, an interest in one multifamily operating property and a multifamily development site. The agreement contains representations, warranties and indemnities customary for a real estate industry asset sale and includes certain adjustment provisions to the purchase price. The total net proceeds after certain purchase price adjustments, closing costs and other costs associated with selling these assets was $217,506,000 . The net proceeds are classified as investing activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows due to the strategic nature of the transaction and bulk sale of primarily undeveloped future residential lots to a strategic buyer which is not in the normal course of our business operations of developing and selling residential lots to homebuilders. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of assets of $716,000 and is included in our consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures | Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures We have participated in real estate ventures for the purpose of acquiring and developing residential, multifamily and mixed-use communities in which we may or may not have a controlling financial interest. U.S. GAAP requires consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb the VIE losses and right to receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. We examine specific criteria and use judgment when determining whether a venture is a VIE and whether we are the primary beneficiary. We perform this review initially at the time we enter into venture agreements and reassess upon reconsideration events. On February 8, 2018, we sold our ownership interest in 8 of our unconsolidated ventures to Starwood as part of a strategic asset sale. (See Note 4 —Held for Sale ). During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we also sold our interest in a venture, generating $11,049,000 in net proceeds and recognizing gain of $2,030,000 which is included in gain on sale of assets. At March 31, 2018 , we had ownership interests in 6 ventures that we accounted for using the equity method, none of which were a VIE. Combined summarized balance sheet information for our ventures accounted for using the equity method follows: March 31, December 31, (In thousands) Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 6,359 $ 13,119 Real estate 88,805 168,914 Other assets 1,353 21,721 Total assets $ 96,517 $ 203,754 Liabilities and Equity: Accounts payable and other liabilities $ 5,208 $ 13,101 Debt (a) 45,761 85,133 Equity 45,548 105,520 Total liabilities and equity $ 96,517 $ 203,754 Forestar's investment in unconsolidated ventures $ 17,284 $ 64,579 Combined summarized income statement information for our ventures accounted for using the equity method follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 2017 (In thousands) Revenues $ 3,381 $ 22,301 Earnings $ 4,280 $ 12,221 Forestar's equity in earnings of unconsolidated ventures $ 1,529 $ 6,362 _________________________ (a) As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, total debt outstanding includes $4,576,000 and $4,584,000 which is recourse to us. |

The LC Facility is secured by $30,000,000 in cash deposited with the administrative agent. In addition, we have $10,000,000 on deposit with a participating lender. These deposits are classified as restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2018 , $21,003,000 was outstanding under the LC Facility. Public Unsecured Debt On October 5, 2017 , we had $120,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2020 ("Convertible Notes"). The completion of the Merger constituted a fundamental change in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes and, as a result, we offered to purchase all or any part of every holder’s Convertible Notes for a price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. As a result, we purchased $1,077,000 of the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes in November 2017. Also, prior to the Merger, upon conversion of the Convertible Notes each holder was entitled to receive 40.8351 shares of former Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. In connection with the Merger, the conversion ratio was adjusted in accordance with the indenture governing the Convertible Notes such that each holder is now entitled to receive $579.77062 in cash and 8.17192 shares of new Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. At March 31, 2018 , the principal amount of the Convertible Notes was $118,923,000 and the unamortized debt discount was $8,657,000 . The effective interest rate on the liability component was 8% and the carrying amount of the equity component was $16,847,000 . We intend to settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion, with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of our common stock. Deferred Fees At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , we had $939,000 and $1,058,000 in unamortized deferred financing fees which were deducted from our debt. Amortization of deferred financing fees was $119,000 and $330,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and was included in interest expense. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Fair Value Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. In arriving at a fair value measurement, we use a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable. The three levels of inputs used to establish fair value are the following: • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and • Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. We elected not to use the fair value option for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, other assets, debt, accounts payable and other liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature or variable interest rates. We determine the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments using quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets. Information about our fixed rate financial instruments not measured at fair value follows: March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Valuation Technique (In thousands) Fixed rate debt (110,266 ) (112,514 ) (109,197 ) (109,114 ) Level 2 Non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include real estate assets, assets held for sale, and intangible assets, which are measured for impairment.

Therefore, only the amount in excess of the par value of the Convertible Notes will be included in our calculation of diluted net income per share using the treasury stock method. As such, the Convertible Notes have no impact on diluted net income per share until the price of our common stock exceeds the conversion price of the Convertible Notes of $51.42 . The price of our common stock did not exceed the conversion price so the Convertible Notes had no impact on diluted net income per share in the three months ended March 31, 2018 . |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was one percent in the three months ended March 31, 2018 , which includes the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") and a tax benefit from the release of a portion of our valuation allowance as the result of the realization of certain deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was 40 percent in the three months ended March 31, 2017 , which included a tax benefit from the release of a portion of our valuation allowance as the result of the realization of certain deferred tax assets and a tax expense associated with a non-cash impairment related to goodwill associated with our owned mineral assets which were sold in the three months ended March 31, 2017 . Our effective tax rate for both periods also includes the effect of state income taxes, nondeductible items and benefits from noncontrolling interests. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $39,911,000 and $41,606,000 , offset by a valuation allowance of $38,544,000 and $39,578,000 for the portion of the deferred tax assets that we have determined is more likely than not to be unrealizable. In determining our valuation allowance, we assessed available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax asset. A significant piece of objective evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended March 31, 2018 , principally driven by impairments of oil and gas and real estate properties in prior years. Such evidence limits our ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projected future taxable income. The amount of deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence, such as our projected future taxable income. The Tax Act, which was enacted on December 22, 2017 , reduced the federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent for all corporations effective January 1, 2018 . ASC 740 requires companies to reflect the effects of a tax law change in the period in which the law is enacted. Accordingly, we remeasured our deferred tax assets and liabilities along with the corresponding valuation allowance as of the 2017 enactment date. This remeasurement resulted in no additional tax expense or benefit except for the release of a portion of the valuation allowance for AMT Credits which became refundable as a result of the tax law change. The initial remeasurement was our best estimate based on the information available at the time and may change as additional information, such as regulatory guidance, becomes available. Any required adjustment will be reflected as a discrete expense or benefit in the quarter that it is identified, as allowed by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 , no adjustments to the remeasurement of our deferred tax accounts were recognized. On October 5, 2017 , D.R. Horton acquired 75 percent of our common stock resulting in an ownership change under Section 382. Section 382 limits our ability to use certain tax attributes and built-in losses and deductions in a given year. Any tax attributes or built-in losses and deductions that were limited in 2017 or are limited in 2018 are expected to be fully utilized in future years. Our unrecognized tax benefits totaled $441,000 at March 31, 2018 , all of which would affect our effective tax rate, if recognized. |

Related Party Transactions Disclosure [Text Block] | Related Party Transactions On October 6, 2017 , we entered into a Shared Services Agreement with D.R. Horton whereby D.R. Horton will provide us with certain administrative, compliance, operational and procurement services. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we paid D.R. Horton $262,000 for these shared services and $417,000 for the cost of health insurance and other employee benefits. These expenses are included within other operating expenses and general and administrative in our consolidated statement of operations. Under the terms of the Master Supply Agreement with D.R. Horton, both companies are proactively identifying land development opportunities to expand our portfolio of assets. At March 31, 2018 , we owned or controlled through land and lot option purchase contracts 13,600 residential lots, of which 3,300 are under contract to sell to D.R. Horton. Additionally, D.R. Horton has the right of first offer on 5,400 of these residential lots based on executed purchase and sale agreements. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , we had earnest money deposit liabilities of $21,418,000 and $1,201,000 related to earnest money deposits made by D.R. Horton in respect of land and lot option purchase contracts for lots to be sold to D.R. Horton. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we sold 183 residential lots to D.R. Horton for $8,498,000 generating segment earnings of $1,821,000 . During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we reimbursed D.R. Horton approximately $11,752,000 for previously paid earnest money and $5,892,000 for pre-acquisition and other due diligence costs related to land purchase contracts whereby D.R. Horton assigned their rights under these land purchase contracts to us. At March 31, 2018 , other accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet included $1,567,000 owed to D.R. Horton for any accrued and unpaid shared services, due diligence cost reimbursements and other development cost reimbursements. We had no material amounts due to or from D.R. Horton as of December 31, 2017 . |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forestar Group Inc., all subsidiaries, ventures and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. We account for our investment in other entities in which we have significant influence over operations and financial policies using the equity method. We eliminate all material intercompany accounts and transactions. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated pass-through entities are recognized before income taxes. We prepare our unaudited interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. As a result, they do not include all the information and disclosures required for complete financial statements. However, in our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items unless otherwise noted. We make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate. These interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. For further information, please read the financial statements included in our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We divested substantially all of our oil and gas working interest properties in 2016, and as a result we have reported the results of operations as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . There was no significant activity related to these operations during the three months ended March 31, 2018 . The transactions included in our net income in the consolidated statements of operations are the same as those that would be presented in other comprehensive income. Thus, our net income equates to other comprehensive income. |
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications Certain items have been reclassified from other operating expenses to cost of real estate sales and other in the prior year financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Pending Accounting Standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The updated standard becomes effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). We currently anticipate adopting the standard using the cumulative catch-up transition method. We anticipate this standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. While we are continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we expect revenue related to residential lot and tract sales to remain substantially unchanged. Due to the complexity of certain of our real estate sale transactions, the revenue recognition treatment required under the standard will be dependent on contract-specific terms, and may vary in some instances from recognition at the time of the sale closing. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner that is similar to today's accounting. This guidance also eliminates today's real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. This guidance is effective for us October 1, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. We are currently evaluating the effect the updated standard will have on our financial position and disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) , to address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). This ASU requires that a statement of cash flow explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash investments. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 will modify our current disclosures and reclassifications relating to the consolidated statements of cash flows, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), to provide guidance about which changes to terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for us beginning October 1, 2018. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures, but we do not expect it to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. |
