Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements [Text Block]	Note 1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements A. Description of the Business Triton, through its subsidiaries, leases intermodal transportation equipment, primarily maritime containers, and provides maritime container management services through a worldwide network of service subsidiaries, third-party depots and other facilities. The Company operates in both international and U.S. markets. The majority of Triton’s business is derived from leasing its containers to shipping line customers through a variety of long-term and short-term contractual lease arrangements. Triton also sells its own containers and containers purchased from third parties and enters into management agreements with third party container owners under which the Company manages the leasing and selling of containers on behalf of the third party owners for a fee. The Company's registered office is located at 22 Victoria Street, Hamilton HM12, Bermuda. B. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements of Triton presented herein reflect, for each period presented below that follows the completion of the mergers, the consolidated results of operations of TAL and TCIL. The consolidated financial statements of Triton presented herein represent the historical financial statements of TCIL, the accounting acquirer, and also reflect the results of operations of TAL after July 12, 2016, the date of the acquisition. In addition, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form S-4 filed with the SEC, on May 6, 2016 and our other reports filed with the SEC through the current date pursuant to the Exchange Act. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates include our estimates in connection with purchase accounting, residual value, depreciable lives, values of assets held for sale, and estimates related to the bankruptcy of a lessee (including amounts for recoveries under insurance policies as described below) among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the accompanying prior period financial statements and notes to conform to the current year's presentation. C. Impact from Lessee Bankruptcy On August 31, 2016, Hanjin Shipping Co. ("Hanjin"), a lessee of the Company, filed for court protection and immediately began a liquidation process. At that time, we had approximately 87,000 container units on lease to Hanjin with a net book value of $243.3 million . The Company maintains credit insurance to cover the value of such containers that are unrecoverable, costs incurred to recover containers and a portion of lost lease revenue, (limited up to six months or until a container is recovered, repaired, and available for re-lease) all subject to a deductible. In connection with the Hanjin bankruptcy, the Company has recorded a charge to bad debt expense in the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2016 of $23.4 million , and an accrual for additional costs not expected to be recovered under our insurance policies due to the deductible limits of $6.5 million . Upon the announcement of the Hanjin bankruptcy, the Company ceased recognizing revenue from the customer which amounted to $6.3 million during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2016. A portion of this lost revenue has been applied towards the deductible under the policies. The Company has recorded a receivable under one insurance policy of approximately $0.6 million since the deductible has been achieved. At the present time, the Company believes the anticipated losses as a result of Hanjin will be recoverable under the insurance policies, subject to the deductible limits. The Company estimates that a large portion of its equipment will ultimately be recovered, and this estimate has been considered into the estimated loss described above. Note 1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements (continued) D. New Accounting Pronouncements In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08 ("ASU No. 2016-08"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), amending previous updates regarding this topic. The effective date is interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the transition method that will be elected and the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-08. In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 ("ASU No. 2014-15"), Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern . This standard requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that financial statements are issued and to disclose those conditions if management has concluded that substantial doubt exists. Subsequent to adoption, this guidance will need to be applied by management at the end of each annual period and interim period therein to determine what, if any, impact there will be on the Consolidated Financial Statements in a given reporting period. These changes become effective for the Company for the 2016 annual period. Management has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements as this standard is disclosure only. In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03 ("ASU No. 2015-03"), Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which was updated in August 2015 by Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-15 ("ASU No. 2015-15"), Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Agreements. These standards change the presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements but do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. Generally, the ASU specifies that debt issuance costs related to debt shall be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and that amortization of debt issuance costs also shall be reported as interest expense. These changes became effective for the Company as of December 31, 2015. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-15 in conjunction with ASU No. 2015-03, with no impact on its results of operations or cash flows and no material impact on its financial position. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 ("ASU No. 2016-02"), Leases (Topic 842) that replaces existing lease guidance. The accounting applied by lessors under Topic 842 is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. The new lease guidance will become effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not expect any material impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 ("ASU No. 2016-09"), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The updated guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Triton, the holders of Triton common shares will be entitled to share equally in any of the assets available for distribution after Triton has paid in full all of its debts. Triton common shares issued upon the completion of the mergers on July 12, 2016 were validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (meaning that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders of such shares in connection with the issue of such shares). Holders of Triton common shares will not be entitled to preemptive rights. Triton common shares will not be convertible into shares of any other class of common shares.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisition [Table Text Block]	Note 3—Acquisition On November 9, 2015, TCIL and TAL announced that they entered into a definitive agreement, under which the companies agreed to combine in an all-stock merger, pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, dated as of November 9, 2015 (the "Transaction Agreement"), by and among TAL, Triton International Limited ("Triton" or the "Company"), TCIL, Ocean Delaware Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Triton, and Ocean Bermuda Sub Limited, a Bermuda exempted company and direct wholly owned subsidiary of Triton. On July 12, 2016, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement (the "mergers") were approved by the stockholders of TAL and became effective. Immediately following the completion of the mergers, former TCIL shareholders owned approximately 55% of the outstanding equity of the Company and former TAL stockholders owned approximately 45% of the outstanding equity of the Company. The Company has accounted for the mergers described above under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Topic No. 805, Business Combinations (“ASC No. 805”). Triton has been treated as the acquirer in the mergers for accounting purposes. In making the determination of the accounting acquirer, Triton considered all pertinent information and facts related to the combined entity as identified by ASC No. 805-10-55-12 to 15, which included relative voting rights, presence of a large minority interest, composition of the Board of Directors and senior management, terms of the exchange of equity interests, and relative size. In the aggregate, it was concluded that factors, such as the former Triton shareholders’ 55% voting rights in the combined entity, after considering certain voting limitations, the presence of a large minority voting interest concentrated within the former Company shareholders and the relative size of Triton in relation to TAL, indicated that Triton should be the accounting acquirer. The consideration for the transaction was paid in common shares of Triton with TAL stockholders receiving one common share of Triton in exchange for each share of TAL common shares of 33.4 million and TCIL’s shareholders received approximately 0.80 of Triton common shares for each of TCIL's common shares. The fair value of the consideration, or the purchase price in the following preliminary purchase price allocation is approximately $510.2 million . This amount was derived based on the fair value of the shares issued to former TAL shareholders. Triton has allocated the purchase price to the fair value of the TAL assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates. The preliminary purchase price allocation below has been developed based on preliminary estimates of fair value using the historical financial statements of TAL as of July 12, 2016. In addition, the allocation of the purchase price to acquired tangible and intangible assets is based on preliminary fair value estimates and is subject to final management analysis, with the assistance of third-party valuation advisers. Since the date of acquisition, total leasing revenues and net loss attributable to shareholders include TAL's results of $94.6 million and $22.6 million , respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Note 4—Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, equipment purchases payable, and accounts payable approximated their fair value as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 . Fair value represents the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes the following fair value hierarchy when selecting inputs for its valuation techniques, with the highest priority given to Level 1: • Level 1—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets (unadjusted). • Level 2—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on observable inputs such as (i) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or (iii) model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. • Level 3—Financial assets and liabilities whose values are derived from valuation techniques based on one or more significant unobservable inputs. The Company does not record debt at fair value in its consolidated balance sheets. The fair value, which was measured using Level 2 inputs, and the carrying value of the Company's debt is listed in the table below as of the dates indicated (in thousands): September 30, December 31, Liabilities Total debt(1) - carrying value $ 6,312,145 $ 3,185,927 Total debt(1) - estimated fair value $ 6,409,767 $ 3,256,284 ______________________________________________________________________________ (1) Excludes unamortized deferred financing costs of $20.5 million and $19.0 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. The Company estimated the fair value of its debt instruments based on the net present value of its future payments, using a discount rate which reflects the Company's estimate of current market interest rates and spreads as of the balance sheet date.

Equity [Abstract]
Capital Stock and Stock Options	Note 6—Restricted Shares, Share Options and Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) The Company accounts for compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation . The cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity award) on a straight-line basis. Unvested restricted shares of approximately 538,000 as of September 30, 2016 were considered anti-dilutive due to net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 . TCIL Share Options Effective May 23, 2011, TCIL adopted a share-based compensation plan (the “Option Plan”) for the benefit of certain executives of TCIL and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Option Plan allows for the issuance of service-based and market-based options. On November 9, 2015, TCIL entered into option transaction agreements (the “Option Transaction Agreements”) with option holders in anticipation of the closing of the merger with TAL. In accordance with the terms of the Option Transaction Agreements, TCIL settled and cancelled all vested and unvested market-based options as of November 9, 2015 in exchange for 865,157 fully vested Class A common shares at $14.51 per share, of which approximately 371,000 were redeemed to satisfy tax withholding obligations in respect of the settlement. On July 8, 2016, TCIL settled and cancelled all vested and unvested service-based options in exchange for approximately 647,000 fully vested Class A common shares at $10.94 per share, of which approximately 291,000 were redeemed to satisfy tax withholding obligations in respect of the settlement. Restricted Shares On July 8, 2016, approximately 143,000 restricted Class A common shares were issued to Option Plan participants after approval and authorization by the Board of Directors. The shares were granted at $10.94 , which will be amortized on a straight line basis over an approximately 30 -month vesting period. On July 12, 2016, the 143,000 restricted Class A common shares were converted to approximately 114,000 common shares of the Company under the terms of the mergers pursuant to which TCIL shareholders received approximately 0.80 common shares of the Company for each of TCIL's common shares. Non-Employee Director Equity Plan On May 19, 2016, TCIL entered into equity repurchase and cash bonus agreements with certain management shareholders and non-employee directors whereby TCIL agreed to repurchase approximately 30,700 restricted Class A common shares at a fair market value redemption price of $12.26 per share. On July 12, 2016, these restricted Class A common shares became fully vested and converted as a result of the mergers. Note 6—Restricted Shares, Share Options and Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) (continued) TAL TAL Stock Based Compensation Plan TAL’s previously existing stock-based compensation plans consisted of the 2005 Management Omnibus Incentive Plan and the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. The TAL restricted shares granted in 2014 and 2015 vested on July 12, 2016 upon the closing of the mergers. A total of 140,000 restricted shares granted in January 2016 were converted to Triton restricted shares and will vest in approximately 2.25 years in accordance with their original terms. Unearned compensation expense of $1.4 million will be amortized to Administrative expenses on a straight line basis over the remaining vesting period. Triton 2016 Triton Plan On September 7, 2016, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved the grants of restricted shares to various executives, certain employees and directors. Under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan the total number of restricted shares granted to executives and employees was approximately 418,000 at a fair value of $14.55 per share and will vest over 3 years . Additional shares may be granted based upon performance. There were approximately 47,000 shares granted at $14.55 per share to directors and these shares vested immediately on September 7, 2016. Total unrecognized compensation costs of approximately $6.8 million as of September 30, 2016 related to the September 2016 grants of restricted shares will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of approximately 2.9 years.

Net investment in finance lease receivables is generally charged off after an analysis is completed which indicates that collection of the full balance is remote. In order to estimate its allowance for losses contained in the gross finance lease receivables, the Company categorizes the credit worthiness of the receivables in the portfolio based on internal customer credit ratings, which are reviewed and updated, as appropriate, on an ongoing basis. The internal customer credit ratings are developed based on a review of the financial performance and condition, operating environment, geographical location and trade routes of our customers. The following table represents the activity of the Company's allowance on gross finance lease receivables for the periods presented (in thousands): Beginning Balance Additions/ (Reversals) Ending Balance Finance Lease— Allowance for doubtful accounts: For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 $ 526 $ 1 $ 527

The Company economically hedges the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate borrowings by entering into interest rate swap agreements that convert a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. As of September 30, 2016 , the Company had interest rate swaps in place with a notional amount of $1.6 billion to fix the floating interest rates on a portion of its floating rate debt obligations. The Company is subject to certain financial covenants under its debt facilities, and as of September 30, 2016 , was in compliance with all such covenants. Asset Backed Securitization Term Notes On April 8, 2016, TCF-III and the holders of the TCF-III Series 2009-1 Notes restructured the TCF-III Series 2009-1 Notes from a warehouse facility to a five-year amortizing term loan. Effective April 8, 2016, TCF-III was no longer able to borrow under the TCF-III Series 2009-1 Notes. The outstanding principal balance of the TCF-III Series 2009-1 Notes at closing was $316.7 million . The contractual interest rate of the TCF-III Series 2009‑1 Notes was modified from (i) one-month LIBOR, or the commercial paper rate, plus an applicable margin of 1.60% , to (ii) one-month LIBOR, or the commercial paper rate, plus an applicable margin of 2.00 %. Between May 31, 2016 and June 1, 2016, TCF-III entered into three interest rate swap agreements in order to fix the interest rate on a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the TCF-III Series 2009-1 Notes. These interest rate swaps have fixed interest rates ranging between 1.11% and 1.12% per year and termination dates through April 2021 and had a total notional amount of $229.1 million at September 30, 2016. TCIL Credit Facility On April 15, 2016, TCIL and a group of commercial banks entered into an amendment and restatement of the TCIL Credit Facility providing for the extension of the facility termination date from November 4, 2016 to April 15, 2021, and the reduction of the aggregate commitment amount thereunder from $600.0 million (which was shared under the prior TCIL Credit Facility with the TCI Credit Facility) to an aggregate commitment, available to TCIL only, of $300.0 million . An accordion feature provided for up to $300.0 million of increased and/or additive commitments for TCIL (for a total of up to $600.0 million of aggregate commitments). No changes were made to the borrowing base or to the pricing of the TCIL Credit Facility. On May 23, 2016, the aggregate commitments under the TCIL Credit Facility were increased to $555.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature. On August 31, 2016, the aggregate commitments under the TCIL Credit Facility were increased to $600.0 million .

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments	Note 9—Derivative Instruments Interest Rate Swaps The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure. Interest rate swap agreements utilized by the Company effectively modify the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of its floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. Such agreements involve the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the lives of the agreements without an exchange of the underlying principal amounts. The counterparties to the Company's interest rate swap agreements are highly rated financial institutions. In the unlikely event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company's exposure is limited to the interest rate differential on the notional amount at each monthly settlement period over the life of the agreements. The Company does not anticipate any non-performance by the counterparties. Substantially all of the assets of certain indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company have been pledged as collateral for the underlying indebtedness and the amounts payable under the interest rate swap agreements for each of these entities. In addition, certain assets of the Company's subsidiaries are pledged as collateral for various credit facilities and the amounts payable under certain interest rate swap agreements. As of September 30, 2016 , the Company had interest rate swap agreements in place to fix the floating interest rates on a portion of the borrowings under its debt facilities as summarized below: Derivatives Net Notional Amount Weighted Average Cap Rate Weighted Average Interest rate swaps $1.6 Billion 1.73% —% 5.0 years Interest rate caps $92.1 Million —% 4.0% 1.0 year Fair Value of Derivative Instruments Under the criteria established by ASC 820, the Company has elected to use the income approach to value its interest rate swap agreements, using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount (discounted) assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact. The Level 2 inputs for the interest rate swap and forward valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates, basis swap adjustments and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals).

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment and Geographic Information	Note 10—Segment and Geographic Information Industry Segment Information The Company conducts its business activities in one industry, intermodal transportation equipment, and has two reporting segments: • Equipment leasing—the Company owns, leases and ultimately disposes of containers and chassis from its lease fleet, as well as manages leasing activities for containers owned by third parties. • Equipment trading—the Company purchases containers from shipping line customers, and other sellers of containers, and resells these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage or one-way shipment. Included in the Equipment trading segment revenues are leasing revenues from equipment purchased for resale that is currently on lease until the containers are dropped off. Triton acquired the Equipment trading segment as part of the acquisition on July 12, 2016 and had no such reporting segment prior to that time. The purchase price allocation and goodwill are preliminary estimates as of September 30, 2016 , and therefore, the goodwill allocated to the equipment trading segment is also preliminary. The following tables show segment information for the periods indicated and the consolidated totals reported (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 2015 Equipment Equipment Totals Equipment Equipment Totals Total leasing revenues $ 247,154 $ 778 $ 247,932 $ 175,719 $ — $ 175,719 Trading margin — 232 232 — — — Net (loss) on sale of leasing equipment (12,319 ) — (12,319 ) (3,254 ) — (3,254 ) Depreciation and amortization expense 112,134 175 112,309 77,176 — 77,176 Interest and debt expense 55,124 313 55,437 35,426 — 35,426 Realized loss on derivative instruments, net 864 — 864 1,386 — 1,386 (Loss) Income before income taxes (52,869 ) (3,979 ) (56,848 ) 26,092 — 26,092 _______________________________________________________________________________ (1) Segment income before income taxes excludes unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps and the write-off of deferred financing costs.

Unrealized losses on interest rate swaps were $5.2 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Write-offs of deferred financing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $0.1 million and there were no such write-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 . (2) Represents cash disbursements for purchases of leasing equipment and investments in finance leases as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods indicated, but excludes cash flows associated with the purchase of equipment held for resale. There are no intercompany revenues or expenses between segments. Additionally, certain administrative expenses have been allocated between segments based on an estimate of services provided to each segment. A portion of the Company's equipment purchased for resale was purchased through certain sale-leaseback transactions with our shipping line customers. Due to the expected longer term nature of these transactions, these purchases are reflected as leasing equipment as opposed to equipment held for sale and the cash flows associated with these transactions are reflected as purchases of leasing equipment and proceeds from the sale of equipment in investing activities in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. Geographic Segment Information The Company earns most of its leasing revenues from international containers which are deployed by its customers in a wide variety of global trade routes. Substantially all of the Company's leasing related revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars.

Income Taxes	Note 12—Income Taxes The consolidated income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, was determined primarily based upon estimates of the Company's consolidated effective income tax rates for the year ending December 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 . The difference between the consolidated effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate is primarily attributable to state income taxes, foreign income taxes, and the effect of certain permanent tax differences. The effective tax rate change from 2015 to 2016 is directly attributable to the acquisition.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements	New Accounting Pronouncements In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08 ("ASU No. 2016-08"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), amending previous updates regarding this topic. The effective date is interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is evaluating the transition method that will be elected and the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU No. 2016-08. In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 ("ASU No. 2014-15"), Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern . This standard requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that financial statements are issued and to disclose those conditions if management has concluded that substantial doubt exists. Subsequent to adoption, this guidance will need to be applied by management at the end of each annual period and interim period therein to determine what, if any, impact there will be on the Consolidated Financial Statements in a given reporting period. These changes become effective for the Company for the 2016 annual period. Management has determined that the adoption of these changes will not have an impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements as this standard is disclosure only. In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03 ("ASU No. 2015-03"), Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs , which was updated in August 2015 by Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-15 ("ASU No. 2015-15"), Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Agreements. These standards change the presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements but do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. Generally, the ASU specifies that debt issuance costs related to debt shall be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and that amortization of debt issuance costs also shall be reported as interest expense. These changes became effective for the Company as of December 31, 2015. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-15 in conjunction with ASU No. 2015-03, with no impact on its results of operations or cash flows and no material impact on its financial position. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 ("ASU No. 2016-02"), Leases (Topic 842) that replaces existing lease guidance. The accounting applied by lessors under Topic 842 is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. The new lease guidance will become effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not expect any material impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 ("ASU No. 2016-09"), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The updated guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The update to the standard is effective for the Company for periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
