Business, Basis of Presentation, and Accounting Policies | Business, Basis of Presentation, and Accounting Policies Rocket Companies, Inc. (the "Company", and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "Rocket Companies", "we", "us", "our") was incorporated in Delaware on February 26, 2020 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Rock Holdings Inc. ("RHI") for the purpose of facilitating an initial public offering ("IPO") of its Class A common stock and other related transactions in order to carry on the business of RKT Holdings, LLC ("Holdings") and its wholly owned subsidiaries. We are a Detroit-based company consisting of tech-driven real estate, mortgage and financial service businesses. Our flagship business, Rocket Mortgage, almost exclusively offers Government Sponsored Enterprise ("GSE") conforming, and government insured mortgage loan products, which are marketed in all 50 states through the internet, national television and other marketing channels. In addition to our mortgage business, we have expanded into complementary industries, such as real estate, personal lending, and auto sales. Our ecosystem is a series of connected businesses centered on delivering better solutions to our clients through our technology and scale. Rocket Companies, Inc. is a holding company. Its primary material asset is the equity interest in Holdings which, through its direct and indirect subsidiaries, conducts all of the Company's operations. Holdings is a Michigan limited liability company and wholly owns Quicken Loans, LLC, Amrock Holdco, LLC (“Amrock”), LMB HoldCo LLC (“Core Digital Media”), RCRA Holdings LLC (“Rock Connections” and “Rocket Auto”), Rocket Homes Real Estate LLC (“Rocket Homes”), RockLoans Holdings LLC (“Rocket Loans”), Rock Central LLC, EFB Holdings Inc. (“Edison Financial”), Lendesk Canada Holdings Inc., RockTech Canada Inc., Nexsys Technologies LLC (“Nexsys”), and Woodward Capital Management LLC. Because Rocket Companies, Inc. is the managing member of Holdings, Rocket Companies, Inc. indirectly operates and controls all of the business affairs of Holdings and its subsidiaries. As used herein, “Rocket Mortgage” refers to either the Rocket Mortgage brand or platform, or the Quicken Loans business, as the context allows. Initial Public Offering On August 10, 2020 we completed the IPO of our common stock pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-239726), which closed on August 10, 2020. In the IPO, we sold an aggregate of 115,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, including 15,000,000 shares of Class A common stock purchased by the underwriters on September 9, 2020 pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. Rocket Companies, Inc. received net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $2,023,000 after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, all of which was used to purchase 115,000,000 non-voting membership units of Holdings (the “Holdings Units”) and shares of Class D common stock from RHI. Prior to the completion of the offering, RHI, Holdings and its subsidiaries consummated an internal reorganization. As a result of the IPO and the reorganization: • Rocket Companies, Inc. is the sole managing member of Holdings, which owns direct interests in (a) Rocket Mortgage and (b) various other former direct subsidiaries of RHI. • Dan Gilbert, our founder and Chairman (our "Chairman"), RHI, and Rocket Companies, Inc. are members of Holdings. • The certificate of incorporation of Rocket Companies, Inc. was amended to, among other things, authorize the Company to issue four classes of common stock: Class A common stock, Class B common stock, Class C common stock and Class D common stock. The Class A common stock and Class C common stock each provide holders with one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, and the Class B common stock and Class D common stock each provide holders with 10 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of Class C common stock and Class D common stock do not have any of the economic rights (including rights to dividends and distributions upon liquidation) provided to holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock. • Holdings is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, is itself generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax under current U.S. tax laws. Each member of Holdings will be required to take into account for U.S. federal income tax purposes its distributive share of the items of income, gain, loss and deduction of Holdings. In connection with the reorganization, we entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) with RHI and our Chairman that will obligate us to make payments to RHI and our Chairman generally equal to 90% of the applicable cash savings that we actually realize as a result of the tax attributes generated by (i) certain increases in our allocable share of the tax basis in Holdings’ assets resulting from (a) the purchases of Holdings Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class D common stock or Class C common stock) from RHI and our Chairman (or their transferees of Holdings Units or other assignees) using the net proceeds from our initial public offering or in any future offering, (b) exchanges by RHI and our Chairman (or their transferees of Holdings Units or other assignees) of Holdings Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class D common stock or Class C common stock) for cash or shares of our Class B common stock or Class A common stock, as applicable, or (c) payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement; (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed arising as a result of payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement and (iii) disproportionate allocations (if any) of tax benefits to Holdings as a result of section 704(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that relate to the reorganization transactions. We will retain the remaining 10% benefit of these tax savings. As the reorganization is considered transactions between entities under common control, the financial statements for the periods prior to the IPO and reorganization have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation. Prior to the reorganization, Rocket Companies, Inc. had no operations. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation Prior to the completion of our reorganization and IPO, as defined above and in our registration statement on form S-1, RKT Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries operated as part of RHI and not as a stand-alone entity. Income from RKT Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries prior to the reorganization and IPO have been accounted for as a non-controlling interest in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity presents the accumulated net income prior to the reorganization and IPO in net parent investment as the financial statements prior to the reorganization and IPO reflect combined subsidiaries operating as part of RHI. As part of our reorganization, we reorganized the legal structure of our entities, so they are all under a single parent entity, RKT Holdings, LLC. As the sole managing member of Holdings, the Company operates and controls all of the business and affairs of Holdings, and through Holdings and its subsidiaries, conducts its business. Because we manage and operate the business and control the strategic decisions and day-to-day operations of Holdings and also have a substantial financial interest in Holdings, we consolidate the financial results of Holdings, and a portion of our net income is allocated to the non-controlling interests. RKT Holdings, LLC is considered a variable interest entity, or VIE. In addition, because RKT Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries are under the common control of RHI, we account for the reorganization as a reorganization of entities under common control and will initially measure the interests of RHI in the assets and liabilities of Holdings at their carrying amounts as of the date of the completion of the reorganization. The net parent investment as a result of the common control transaction with Rocket Companies, Inc. was allocated between non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital based on the ownership of RKT Holdings, LLC. Prior to the reorganization and IPO, all revenues and expenses as well as assets and liabilities that are either legally attributable to us or directly associated with our business activities are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Net parent investment represents RHI’s interest in the recorded net assets of the Company. All significant transactions between the Company and RHI have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and are reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity as “Net transfers to/from parent” and in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within “Net parent investment.” In conjunction with the reorganization and IPO, we reclassified RHI's historical net parent investment in us to additional paid-in-capital. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts between the businesses comprising the Company have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All transactions and accounts between RHI and the Company have a history of settlement or will be settled for cash, and are reflected as related party transactions. For further details of the Company’s related party transactions refer to Note 6 Transactions with Related Parties. Our condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and presented in U.S. dollars. They have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019 has been derived from our audited combined financial statements at that date. Our condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our combined financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019, which include a complete set of footnote disclosures, including our significant accounting policies. Our condensed consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the reorganization and IPO have been derived from our combined financial statements, which combined the subsidiaries that historically operated as part of RHI and were included in the IPO registration statement, with further adjustments only to comply with the presentation requirements for consolidated financial statements purposes and to reflect retrospectively the Amrock Title Insurance Company ("ATI") common control acquisition as discussed further below in the Acquisition Agreement section. Amounts for the period from July 1, 2020 through August 5, 2020, from January 1, 2020 through August 5, 2020, as of December 31, 2019, and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements herein represent the historical operations of the Company including those of ATI. These amounts are prepared on a basis materially consistent, including intercompany eliminations, with the amounts as of September 30, 2020 and for the period from August 6, 2020 through September 30, 2020, reflecting the consolidated operations of the Company including ATI. The December 31, 2019 balance sheet of the Company is immaterially different from the audited financial statements as a result of the ATI common control transaction. We believe the assumptions underlying the condensed consolidated financial statements, including the assumptions regarding allocation of expenses from RHI are reasonable. Prior to the reorganization and IPO, the executive management compensation expense has been allocated based on time incurred for services provided to Holdings and its subsidiaries. Total costs allocated to us for these services were $8,042 and $11,596 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $94,776 and $33,526 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts were included in salaries, commissions and team member benefits in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In our opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. However, our results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year or for any other future period. Acquisition Agreement On August 5, 2020, Rocket Companies, Inc. entered into an acquisition agreement with RHI and its direct subsidiary Amrock Holdings Inc. pursuant to which we acquired Amrock Title Insurance Company ("ATI"), a title insurance underwriting business, for total aggregate consideration of $14,400 that consisted of 800,000 Holdings Units and shares of Rocket Companies, Inc. Class D common stock valued at the price to the public in the initial public offering of $18.00 per share (the number of shares issued equals the purchase price divided by the price to the public in our initial public offering). ATI's net income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $4,700. The ATI acquisition closed on August 14, 2020, and the Company issued the 800,000 Class D shares and Holding Units to RHI. Because the Acquisition was a transaction between commonly controlled entities, U.S. GAAP requires the retrospective combination of the entities for all periods presented as if the combination had been in effect since the inception of common control. Accordingly, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, including for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and as of December 31, 2019, reflect the retrospective combination of the entities as if the combination had been in effect since inception of common control. Management 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, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management is not currently aware of any factors that would significantly change its estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates. Subsequent Events In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Refer to Note 5, Borrowings for disclosures on changes to the Company’s debt agreements that occurred subsequent to September 30, 2020, w hich includes additional details on the 5.75% Senior Notes with an $1,250,000 balance as of September 30, 2020 that were redeemed in October 2020. Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company sold MSRs relating to certain single-family mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $20,000,000 as of September 30, 2020. The sale represented approximately 5.0% of the Company’s total single-family mortgage servicing portfolio as of September 30, 2020. At the time of issuance of this report, the direct and indirect impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic and recent market volatility may have on the Company’s financial statements are uncertain. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the magnitude of the impact these events may ultimately have on its results of operations, liquidity or financial position. However, management of the Company is unaware of any known adverse material risk or event that should be recognized in the financial statements at this time. Share Repurchase Authorization The Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program effective November 10, 2020. The share repurchase program authorizes the Company to repurchase outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, of any Class, in an aggregate value, not to exceed $1 billion dollars, from time to time, in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. The share repurchase program will remain in effect for a two-year period. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases at any specific time. The timing and extent to which the Company repurchases its shares will depend upon, among other things, market conditions, share price, liquidity targets, regulatory requirements and other factors. Revenue Recognition The following revenue streams fall within the scope of ASC Topic 606—Revenue from Contracts with Customers and are disaggregated hereunder: Core Digital Media lead generation revenue —Online consumer acquisition revenue, net of intercompany eliminations, were $5,755 and $9,847 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $18,819 and $31,138 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Professional service fees —Professional service fee revenues were $3,528 and $2,399 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $7,155 and $6,286 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and were rendered entirely to related parties. Rocket Homes real estate network referral fees —Real estate network referral fees were $13,633 and $13,286 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $33,459 and $31,853 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Rock Connections contact center revenue —Contact center revenue was $6,246 and $6,456 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $19,403 and $19,701 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Amrock closing fees —Closing fees were $122,735 and $53,672 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $302,260 and $126,995 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Amrock appraisal revenue, net —Appraisal revenue, net was $20,655 and $20,408 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $59,054 and $56,591 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Restricted cash as of September 30, 2020 and 2019 consisted of cash on deposit for a repurchase facility and client application deposits, title premiums collected from the insured that are due to the underwritten insurance company and a $25,000 bond. September 30, 2020 2020 2019 Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,485,137 $ 818,328 Restricted cash 85,351 65,586 Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the statement of cash flows $ 3,570,488 $ 883,914 Loans subject to repurchase right from Ginnie Mae For certain loans sold to Ginnie Mae, the Company as the servicer has the unilateral right to repurchase any individual loan in a Ginnie Mae securitization pool if that loan meets defined criteria, including being delinquent more than 90 days. Once the Company has the unilateral right to repurchase the delinquent loan, the Company has effectively regained control over the loan and must re-recognize the loan on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and establish a corresponding finance liability regardless of the Company's intention to repurchase the loan. Non-controlling interests As noted above, we are the sole managing member of Holdings and consolidate the financial results of Holdings. Therefore, we report a non-controlling interest based on the Holdings Units of Holdings held by our Chairman and RHI (the "non-controlling interest holders") on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income or loss is attributed to the non-controlling interests based on the weighted average Holdings Units outstanding during the period and is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Refer to Note 14, Non-controlling Interests for more information. Stock-based Compensation In connection with the IPO, equity-based awards were issued under the Rocket Companies, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan including restricted stock units and stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price equal to the price to the public in the initial public offering. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded as a component of salaries, commissions and team member benefits. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant, refer to Note 15, Stock-based Compensation for additional information. Income taxes Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes predominantly in the United States and Canada. These tax laws are often complex and may be subject to different interpretations. To determine the financial statement impact of accounting for income taxes, the Company must make assumptions and judgements about how to interpret and apply these complex tax laws to numerous transactions and business events, as well as make judgements regarding the timing of when certain items may affect taxable income in the United States and Canada. In calculating the provision for interim income taxes, in accordance with ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes, we apply an estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date ordinary income. At the end of each interim period, we estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. Tax-effects of significant, unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenue and expense. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise we consider all available positive and negative evidence including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, we begin with historical results and changes in accounting policies and incorporate assumptions including the amount of future state, federal, and foreign pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. If it is determined that a deferred tax asset is not realizable, a valuation allowance is established. The valuation allowance may be reversed in a subsequent reporting period if the Company determines that based on revised estimates of future taxable income or changes in tax planning strategies, it is more likely than not that all or part of the deferred tax asset will become realizable. Our interpretations of tax laws are subject to review and examination by various taxing authorities and jurisdictions where the Company operates, and disputes may occur regarding its view on a tax position. These disputes over interpretations with the various tax authorities may be settled by audit, administrative appeals or adjudication in the court systems of the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates. We regularly review whether we may be assessed additional income taxes as a result of the resolution of these matters, and the Company records additional reserves as appropriate. In addition, the Company may revise its estimate of income taxes due to changes in income tax laws, legal interpretations, and business strategies. We recognize the financial statement effects of uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. Also, we recognize accrued interest and penalties related to liabilities for uncertain income tax positions in income tax expense. For additional information regarding our provision for income taxes refer to Note 8, Income Taxe s. Tax Receivable Agreement In connection with the reorganization, we entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement with RHI and our Chairman that will obligate us to make payments to RHI and our Chairman generally equal to 90% of the applicable cash savings that we actually realize as a result of the tax attributes generated by (i) certain increases in our allocable share of the tax basis in Holdings’ assets resulting from (a) the purchases of Holdings Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class D common stock or Class C common stock) from RHI and our Chairman (or their transferees of Holdings Units or other assignees) using the net proceeds from our initial public offering or in any future offering, (b) exchanges by RHI and our Chairman (or their transferees of Holdings Units or other assignees) of Holdings Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class D common stock or Class C common stock) for cash or shares of our Class B common stock or Class A common stock, as applicable, or (c) payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement; (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed arising as a result of payments made under the Tax Receivable Agreement and (iii) disproportionate allocations (if any) of tax benefits to Holdings as a result of section 704(c) of the Code that relate to the reorganization transactions. We will retain the benefit of the remaining 10% of these tax savings. Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share The Company applies the two-class method for calculating and presenting earnings per share by separately presenting earnings per share for Class A common stock and Class B common stock. In applying the two-class method, the Company allocates undistributed earnings equally on a per share basis between Class A and Class B common stock. According to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, the holders of the Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to participate in earnings equally on a per-share basis, as if all shares of common stock were of a single class, and in such dividends as may be declared by the board of directors. Holders of the Class A and Class B common stock also have equal priority in liquidation. Shares of Class C and Class D common stock do not participate in earnings of Rocket Companies, Inc. As a result, the shares of Class C and Class D common stock are not considered participating securities and are not included in the weighted-average shares outstanding for purposes of earnings per share. Restricted stock units awarded as part of the Company’s compensation program, described in Note 15, Stock-based Compensation , are included in the weighted-average Class A shares outstanding in the calculation of basic EPS once the units are fully vested. Refer to Note 16, Earnings Per Share for more information. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ,” which introduced an expected credit loss model for the impairment of financial assets, measured at amortized cost. The model replaces the probable, incurred loss model for those assets and broadens the information an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured at amortized cost. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance under ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, “Topic 326”) with no material impact to our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Based upon management’s scoping analysis, the Company determined that money market funds, notes, other receivables, and Ginnie Mae early buyout loans are within the scope of ASU 2016-13. For the Ginnie Mae early buyout loans, the Company determined that the guarantee from the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) or Veterans Affairs (“VA”) limits the Company’s exposure to potential credit-related losses to an immaterial amount. For other assets, primarily money market funds, the Company determined that these are short-term in nature (less than one year) and of high credit quality, and the estimated credit-related losses over the life of these receivables are also immaterial. For each of the aforementioned financial instruments carried at amortized cost, the Company enhanced its processes to consider and include the requirements of ASU 2016-13, as applicable, into the determination of credit-related losses. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments (“ASU 2020-03”). ASU 2020-03 improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics to increase shareholder awareness and make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The Company adopted ASU 2020-03 upon issuance, with no material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments to Topic 740 include the removal of certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740 in such areas as intraperiod tax allocation, year to date losses in interim periods and deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences. Amendments also include simplification in other areas such as interim recognition of enactment of tax laws or rate changes and accounting for a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income. This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2021. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. If an entity chooses to early adopt, it must adopt all changes as a result of the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . Subject to meeting certain criteria, the new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to applying contract modification accounting under existing U.S. GAAP, to address the expected phase out of the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) by the end of 2021. This guidance is effective upon issuance and allows application to contract changes as early as January 1, 2020. The Company is in the process of reviewing its funding facilities and financing facilities that utilize LIBOR as the reference rate and is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The amendments in this update change how entities account for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The standard simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments, amends guidance on derivative scope exceptions for contracts in an entity's own equity, and modifies the guidance on diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculations as a result of these changes. This standard |
