While the Company is considering a full range of financing options, we cannot provide any assurance that financing will be available to us in the future on acceptable terms. In April 2015, FASB issued an accounting standards update for “Interest Imputation of Interest,” which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. This accounting standard update requires that debt issuance cost related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The new update is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 (and interim periods within those fiscal years). The adoption of this new accounting standard update resulted in a reclassification of debt issuance costs from Other assets to Line of Credit, net and Long term debt, net. See Note 5 - Long-Term Debt for disclosure of debt issuance costs. Adoption of this accounting standard update did not impact our statements of operations or cash flows. |
