SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding unaudited interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest and Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year due to seasonality and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2015 contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2016. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 included Lindblad Expeditions Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Natural Habitat’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2016 and results of operations for the period beginning May 5, 2016 and ending September 30, 2016 are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications Certain items in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reclassified to conform to the 2016 classification. The reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and also affect the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each period. Actual results could differ from those which result from using such estimates. Management utilizes various estimates, including but not limited to determining the estimated lives of long-lived assets, determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the fair value of the Company’s common stock and related warrants, the valuation of securities underlying stock-based compensation, income tax expense, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the value of contingent consideration, and to assess its litigation, other legal claims and contingencies. The results of any changes in accounting estimates are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period in which the changes become evident. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Revenue Recognition Tour revenues consist of guest ticket revenues recognized from the sale of guest tickets and other tour revenues from the sale of pre- and post-expedition excursions, hotel accommodations, land-based expeditions, air transportation to and from the ships, goods and services rendered onboard that are not included in guest ticket prices, trip insurance, and cancellation fees. Revenues from the sale of guest tickets and other tour revenues are recognized gross, as the Company has the primary obligation in the arrangement, has discretion in supplier selection and is involved in the determination of the service specifications. The Company’s tour guests remit deposits in advance of tour embarkation. Guest tour deposits consist of guest ticket revenues as well as revenues from the sale of pre- and post-expedition excursions, hotel accommodations, land-based expeditions, air transportation to and from the ships, and trip insurance. Guest tour deposits represent unearned revenues and are initially included in unearned passenger revenues in the condensed consolidated balance sheet when received. Guest deposits are subsequently recognized as tour revenues on the date of embarkation. Tour expeditions average ten days in duration. For tours of owned vessels in excess of ten days, where the tour days span a quarter, the Company recognizes revenue based upon expedition days earned. Guest cancellation fees are recognized as tour revenues at the time of the cancellation. Revenues from the sale of additional goods and services rendered onboard are recognized upon purchase. Earnings per Common Share Earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the dilutive incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options (if such option is an equity instrument, using the treasury stock method). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company determined, using the treasury method, there were 764,814 and 690,272 dilutive common shares, respectively, related to stock options. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company determined, using the treasury method, there were 1,451,922 and 730,028 dilutive common shares, respectively, related to stock options. As of September 30, 2016, there were 202,091 unvested restricted shares and restricted share units granted to non-employee directors and employees at a weighted-average value of $9.90 per share. The Company determined these shares were anti-dilutive and were not considered in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding. As of September 30, 2016, 12,040,937 warrants to purchase common stock at a price of $11.50 per share were outstanding. The Company determined these warrants were anti-dilutive and were not considered in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding. On July 8, 2015, as a result of the mergers, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-40-45 and related to the reverse merger treatment and recapitalization, all historical weighted average common shares were adjusted by the exchange ratios established by the merger agreement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company calculated earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 and 805-40-45 as follows: (In thousands, except share and per share data) For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 2016 2015 Net income attributable to Lindblad for basic and diluted earnings per share $ 7,418 $ 4,416 $ 13,539 $ 20,184 Weighted average shares outstanding: Total weighted average shares outstanding, basic 45,776,443 45,004,393 45,639,608 44,814,354 Effect of dilutive securities: Assumed exercise of stock options, treasury method 764,814 1,451,922 690,272 730,028 Total weighted average shares outstanding, diluted 46,541,257 46,456,315 46,329,880 45,544,382 Weighted average shares outstanding Basic 45,776,443 45,004,393 45,639,608 44,814,354 Diluted 46,541,257 46,456,315 46,329,880 45,544,382 Earnings per share attributable to Lindblad Basic $ 0.16 $ 0.10 $ 0.30 $ 0.45 Diluted $ 0.16 $ 0.10 $ 0.29 $ 0.44 As of September 30, 2016, there were 45,968,480 shares outstanding. The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001. The Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders approved a 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), which includes the authority to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of Lindblad’s common stock under the 2015 Plan. As of September 30, 2016, options to purchase an aggregate of 2,130,848 shares of the Company’s common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $2.57 per share were outstanding (including options assumed in the mergers) and 2,066,188 common shares were available for award under the 2015 Plan. In 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders approved a new equity incentive plan (the “2016 CEO Share Allocation Plan”), which includes the authority to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Lindblad’s common stock that are contributed to the Company by its CEO under the 2016 CEO Share Allocation Plan. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less, as well as deposits in financial institutions, to be cash and cash equivalents. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains cash in several financial institutions in the U.S. and other countries which, at times, may exceed the federally insured limits. Accounts held in the U.S. are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to certain limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s cash held in financial institutions outside of the U.S. amounted to $6.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Restricted Cash and Marketable Securities Included in “Restricted cash and marketable securities” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets are restricted cash and marketable securities, consisting of six-month certificates of deposit and short-term investments. Restricted cash and marketable securities consist of the following: As of September 30, December 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 Restricted cash and marketable securities: Credit negotiation and credit card processor reserves $ 5,030 $ 5,030 Federal Maritime Commission escrow 3,911 2,233 Certificates of deposit and other restricted securities 1,426 1,197 Total restricted cash and marketable securities $ 10,367 $ 8,460 The amounts held in restricted cash and marketable securities represent principally funds required to be held in certificates of deposit by certain vendors and regulatory agencies and are classified as restricted assets since such amounts cannot be used by the Company until the restrictions are removed by those vendors and regulatory agencies. Interest income is recognized when earned. The Company has classified marketable securities, principally money market funds, as trading securities which are recorded at market value. Unrealized gains and losses are included in current operations. Gains and losses on the disposition of securities are recognized by the specific identification method in the period in which they occur. In order to operate guest tour expedition vessels from U.S. ports, the Company is required to post a performance bond with the Federal Maritime Commission or escrow all unearned guest deposits plus an additional 10% in restricted accounts. To satisfy this requirement, the Company entered into an agreement with a financial institution to escrow all unearned guest revenues collected for sailings from U.S. ports. A $5.0 million cash reserve as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is required for credit card deposits by third-party credit card processors. The above arrangements are included in restricted cash and marketable securities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts in the escrow accounts include cash, certificates of deposit and marketable securities. Cost of these short-term investments approximates fair value. Inventories and Marine Operating Supplies Inventories consist primarily of gift shop merchandise and other items for resale and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Marine operating supplies consist primarily of fuel, provisions, spare parts, items required for maintenance, and supplies used in the operation of marine expeditions. Marine operating supplies are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out method. Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization were computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Years Vessels and vessel improvements 15-25 Furniture, vehicles and equipment 5 Computer hardware and software 5 Leasehold improvements, including expedition sites and port facilities Shorter of lease term or related asset life The ship-based tour and expedition industry is very capital intensive and as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company owned and operated six vessels and has two new coastal vessels under construction and one purchased vessel under renovation. Therefore, the Company has a capital program that it develops for the improvement of its vessels, expedition sites and for asset replacements in order to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of its operations; comply with, or exceed all relevant legal and statutory requirements related to health, environment, safety, security and sustainability; and gain strategic benefits or provide newer improved product innovations to its guests. Vessel and site improvement costs that add value to the Company’s vessels and expedition sites, such as those discussed above, are capitalized to the vessels and site improvements and depreciated over the shorter of the improvements or the vessel’s estimated remaining useful life, while costs of repairs and maintenance, including minor improvement costs and drydock expenses, are charged to expense as incurred and included in other vessels operating expenses. Drydock costs primarily represent planned major maintenance activities that are incurred when a vessel is taken out of service for scheduled maintenance. For U.S. flagged ships, the statutory requirement is an annual docking and U.S. Coast Guard inspections, normally conducted in drydock. Internationally flagged ships have scheduled dockings approximately every 12 months, for a period of up to three to six weeks. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company had $50.6 million in capital expenditures, which includes capitalized interest, added to property and equipment, net which included $26.9 million for the purchase and renovation of its National Geographic Endeavour II Via Australis National Geographic Endeavour II Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill and other intangible assets include the cost of the acquired business in excess of the fair value of the tangible net assets recorded in connection with the acquisition of Natural Habitat (see Note 1 – Business). SFAS No. 142, “ Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets The Company has recorded book goodwill for which there is no tax basis and is therefore not tax deductible. Other intangible assets include tradenames and customer lists. Tradenames are words, symbols, or other devices used in trade or business to indicate the source of products and to distinguish it from other products and are registered with government agencies and are protected legally by continuous use in commerce. Customer lists are established relationships with existing customers that resulted in repeat purchases and customer loyalty. Based on the Company’s analysis, amortization of the tradenames and customer lists was computed using the estimated useful lives of 15 and 5 years, respectively. Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, the assessment of possible impairment of the Company’s other intangible assets is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its asset, which is determined by using the asset’s estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If these estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized for the excess, if any, of the asset’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating the future cash flows and fair values of its tradenames and customer lists. As of September 30, 2016, goodwill and other intangible assets, net of amortization, consisted of $22.1 million in goodwill, $3.0 million in customer lists and $2.8 million in tradenames. Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, principally its vessels and operating rights, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, the assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its asset, which is determined by using the asset’s estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If these estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized for the excess, if any, of the asset’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating the future cash flows and fair values of its vessels and operating rights. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was no triggering event and the Company did not record an impairment of its long-lived assets. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company reviewed the remaining useful life of the National Geographic Endeavour National Geographic Endeavour II National Geographic Endeavour’s National Geographic Endeavour Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure The Company applies ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which expands disclosures for assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 Quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at measurement date. Level 2 Quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities that cannot be corroborated by market data. Fair value is determined by the reporting entity’s own assumptions utilizing the best information available, and includes situations where there is little market activity for the investment. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value given that the terms of the agreement were comparable to the market as of September 30, 2016. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had no other liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 3 financial liabilities consist of obligations for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate. Income Taxes The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and the non-U.S. jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant management judgement is required in projecting ordinary income to determine the Company’s estimated effective tax rate. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which it recognizes deferred income taxes for the tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, as well as for tax loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recoverable or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if, based upon the weight of available evidence, the Company does not believe it is “more-likely-than-not” that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company will continue to evaluate the deferred tax asset valuation allowance balances in all of our foreign and U.S. companies to determine the appropriate level of valuation allowances. The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and the non-U.S. jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company regularly assesses the potential outcome of current and future examinations in each of the taxing jurisdictions when determining the adequacy of the provision for income taxes. The Company has only recorded financial statement benefits for tax positions which it believes reflect the “more-likely-than-not” criteria of FASB’s authoritative guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, and it has established income tax reserves in accordance with this guidance where necessary. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $0.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, which was included in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The Company is subject to tax audits in all jurisdictions for which it files tax returns. Tax audits by their very nature are often complex and can require several years to complete. Currently, there are no U.S. federal, state or foreign jurisdiction tax audits pending. The Company’s corporate U.S. federal and state tax returns from 2013 to 2015 remain subject to examination by tax authorities and the Company’s foreign tax returns from 2011 to 2014 remain subject to examination by tax authorities. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees, non-employee directors or other service providers in accordance with accounting guidance that requires that awards are recorded at their fair value on the date of grant and are amortized over the service period of the award. The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the equity instrument issued. To the extent that an equity award later becomes eligible to be put back to the Company, then the fair value of that award or those exercised shares are transferred out of additional paid-in-capital to a liability account and is thereafter marked-to-market annually to fair value. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest The Company, in connection with the acquistion of Natural Habitat, recognized a noncontrolling interest and measured it at fair value on the acquisition date according to ASC 805-20-30-1. The Company recognized the noncontrolling interest as a redeemable noncontrolling interest to the extent that the risks and rewards of ownership substantially remain with the noncontrolling interest. Mr. Bressler’s “noncontrolling interest” in the remaining 19.9% interest in Natural Habitat not owned by the Company is subject to a put/call arrangement. The arrangement between the Company and Mr. Bressler was established in order to provide a formal exit opportunity for Mr. Bressler and a path to 100% ownership for the Company. Mr. Bressler has a put option under certain conditions, subject to providing notice by October 31, 2020, that enables him, but does not obligate him, to sell his remaining interest in Natural Habitat on December 31, 2020. The Company has a call option, but not an obligation, with an expiration of December 31, 2025, for which it can buy Mr. Bressler’s remaining interest at a similar fair value measure as Mr. Bressler’s put option. These rights to purchase or sell the noncontrolling interest may be at a fixed or variable price, or at fair value, and may be exercisable on a fixed date or any time at some point in the future. The existence of these rights impacts (1) whether separate assets or liabilities should be recognized for these rights, (2) the classification of any minority ownership as a liability, equity or redeemable noncontrolling interest, and (3) the amount of earnings recognized in the financial statements. As the purchase prices indicated similar fair value measures, the put/call arrangement had been struck at fair value and each party is in agreement that the valuation is indicative of fair value, the asset and liability position would be netted and it is expected that the resulting value would be immaterial given the structure of the arrangement. As Mr. Bressler is responsible for the management of Natural Habitat, the risks and rewards of ownership substantially remain with the noncontrolling interest. The existence of the put/call arrangement does not indicate a separate obligation or liability for either party. Based on the existence of redemptive rights by Mr. Bressler, and the existence of risks and rewards of ownership, the noncontrolling interest was recorded separately as a redeemable noncontrolling interest. The put right is not redeemable unless notice is provided as per the requirements of the agreement. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In October 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory”. The amendment was issued to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. FASB decided that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. Consequently, the amendments in this Update eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. Public business entities should apply the guidance to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the effects, if any, that adoption of this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (Topic 230). ASU No. 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, this ASU is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, provided that all of the amendments are adopted in the same period. The guidance requires application using a retrospective transition method. The Company adopted this ASU in the third quarter of 2016 and its adoption did not have a material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” (Topic 606). ASU No. 2016-12 addresses matters raised by the FASB-International Accounting Standards Board Joint Transition Resource Group for Revenue Recognition regarding an entity’s implementation of and transition to Topic 606. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. Instead, the FASB provides clarification regarding specific issues, as follows: (1) satisfying the collectability and other criteria for identifying a contract, (2) presentation of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers, (3) noncash consideration, and (4) transitional guidance regarding modified contracts, completed contracts and accounting change disclosures. Public business entities should apply the guidance similar to Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company will evaluate the effects, if any, that adoption of this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (Topic 606). The amendments clarify two aspects of ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” by providing (1) guidance for identifying performance obligations and (2) licensing implementation guidance. Public business entities should apply the guidance similar to Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company will evaluate the effects, if any, that adoption of this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (Topic 718). The amendments in this ASU are to significantly reduce the complexity and cost of accounting for excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to employee share-based payment transactions, which include restricted stock and stock options. Also, ASU No. 2016-09 requires an entity to run excess tax benefits and deficiencies through its income statement, which in effect eliminates the concept of additional paid-in capital. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company will evaluate the effects, if any, that adoption of this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Gross versus Net)” (Topic 606). The amendments clarify implementation guidance of ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” by improving the operability and understandability of principal versus agent considerations. Public business entities should apply the guidance similar to Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reportin |
