SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	Note 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Consolidation Policy and Basis of Presentation have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Fiscal Year Use of Estimates Inventories September 25, 2015 December 31, 2014 Raw materials $ 10,285 $ 6,457 Finished goods 14,656 14,714 Inventory reserves (705 ) (618 ) LIFO reserve (4,054 ) (4,672 ) $ 20,182 $ 15,881 At September 25, 2015 and December 31, 2014, approximately 71% and 78%, respectively, of Katy’s inventories were accounted for using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method of costing, while the remaining inventories were accounted for using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Current cost, as determined using the FIFO method, exceeded LIFO cost by $4.1 million and $4.7 million at September 25, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Share-Based Payment Compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The components of compensation expense are as follows (amounts in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 25, 2015 September 26, 2014 September 25, 2015 September 26, 2014 Stock appreciation right expense $ 13 $ 15 $ 76 $ 50 The fair value of stock options is estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. As the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a basis for estimating the expected term, the Company uses the simplified method for estimating the expected term by averaging the minimum and maximum lives expected for each award. In addition, the Company estimated volatility by considering its historical stock volatility over a term comparable to the remaining expected life of each award. The risk-free interest rate is the current yield available on U.S. treasury issues with a remaining term equal to each award. The Company estimates forfeitures using historical results. Its estimates of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from their estimate. There were no stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 25, 2015 and September 26, 2014. The fair value of SARs, a liability award, was estimated at September 25, 2015 and September 26, 2014 using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company estimated the expected term by averaging the minimum and maximum lives expected for each award. In addition, the Company estimated volatility by considering its historical stock volatility over a term comparable to the remaining expected life of each award. The risk-free interest rate is the current yield available on U.S. treasury issues with a remaining term equal to each award. The Company estimates forfeitures using historical results. Its estimates of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from their estimate. The assumptions for expected term, volatility and risk-free rate are presented in the table below: September 25, 2015 September 26, 2014 Expected term (years) 0.9 - 4.8 1.9 - 4.8 Volatility 133.1% - 313.7% 244.2% - 353.4% Risk-free interest rate 0.3% - 1.4% 0.6% - 1.7% Accumulated Comprehensive Loss 0.9 0.7 0.8 Change in Estimate Segment Reporting

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS [Abstract]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	Note 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU” or “Update”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. On July 9, 2015 the FASB voted to defer the effective date of this standard by one year to December 15, 2017 for the interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. Companies may use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU. We are currently evaluating which transition approach to use and the full impact this ASU will have on our future financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, to communicate amendments to FASB Account Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” The ASU requires management to evaluate relevant conditions, events and certain management plans that are known or reasonably knowable as of the evaluation date when determining whether substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. Management will be required to make this evaluation for both annual and interim reporting periods. Management will have to make certain disclosures if it concludes that substantial doubt exists or when it plans to alleviate substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and for interim reporting periods starting in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We currently believe there will be no impact on our financial statement disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “ Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU requires companies to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability. ASU 2015-03 does not impact the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. Accordingly, we will adopt this ASU on January 1, 2016. Companies are required to use a retrospective approach and we are currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330),” authoritative guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory. Under this new standard, an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments in this guidance should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements. In September 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805),” which eliminates the requirement that an acquirer in a business combination account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The acquirer still must disclose the amounts and reasons for adjustments to the provisional amounts. The acquirer also must disclose, by line item, the amount of the adjustment reflected in the current-period income statement that would have been recognized in previous periods if the adjustment to provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. Alternatively, an acquirer may present those amounts separately on the face of the income statement. Public business entities must apply the new requirements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods with those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements.

(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE [Abstract]
(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE	Note 3. (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE The consolidated financial statements include basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share. Diluted per share information is calculated by considering the impact of potential common stock on the weighted average shares outstanding. Potential common stock consists of (a) incremental shares that would be available for issuance upon the assumed exercise of stock options “in the money” based on the average stock price for the respective period and (b) convertible preferred shares, owned by Kohlberg & Co. LLC (see Note 8), accounted for using the “if converted” basis, which assumes their conversion to common stock at a ratio of 16.6:1. The basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations are as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 25, 2015 September 26, 2014 September 25, 2015 September 26, 2014 Net (loss) income $ (1,605 ) $ 1,350 $ (4,421 ) $ 3,058 Average common shares outstanding - Basic 7,951 7,951 7,951 7,951 Dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock - 18,859 - 18,859 Average common shares outstanding - Diluted 7,951 26,810 7,951 26,810 Per share amount - Basic: $ (0.20 ) $ 0.17 $ (0.56 ) $ 0.38 Per share amount - Diluted: $ (0.20 ) $ 0.05 $ (0.56 ) $ 0.11 As of September 25, 2015, all options had expired. As of September 26, 2014, no options were in the money and 6,000 options were out of the money. At September 25, 2015 and September 26, 2014, 1,131,551 convertible preferred shares were outstanding, which are in total, convertible into 18,859,183 shares of the Company’s common stock. Convertible preferred shares were not included in the calculation of diluted (loss) earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2015 because of their anti-dilutive impact as a result of the Company’s net loss position.

The proceeds of the Company’s initial borrowing under the BMO Credit Agreement were used to repay the PrivateBank Loan and Security Agreement (the “PB Loan Agreement”), finance the acquisition of FTW (as defined in Note 10), and pay certain fees and expenses related to the negotiation and consummation of the BMO Credit Agreement. All extensions of credit under the BMO Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest in and lien upon substantially all present and future assets and properties of the Company. First Lien Credit Agreement On April 7, 2015, in conjunction with the acquisition described below, Katy Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), Continental Commercial Products, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, 2155735 Ontario Inc., an Ontario corporation, CCP Canada Inc., an Ontario corporation, FTW Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Fort Wayne Plastics, Inc., an Indiana corporation, wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company (the foregoing, including the Company, the “Borrowers”), and BMO Harris Bank N.A., as lender (“BMO”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to Credit and Security Agreement, dated April 7, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), among the Borrowers and BMO (“Amendment No. 1”) to amend that certain Credit and Security Agreement, dated February 19, 2014 (the “Original BMO Credit Agreement”), among the Borrowers and BMO (the Original Credit Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 1, the “BMO Credit Agreement”) and to obtain the consent of BMO to the acquisition described below. Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, the revolving credit facility under the Original BMO Credit Agreement was increased from an amount not to exceed $27.0 million to an amount not to exceed $33.0 million. The revolving credit facility under the BMO Credit Agreement continues to include a $3.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The proceeds advanced under the BMO Credit Agreement on the Closing Date were used to pay certain fees and expenses related to the negotiation and consummation of Amendment No. 1 and the acquisition of our Tiffin, Ohio manufacturing facility (as described in Note 10). Subject to the terms of an Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement, dated as of April 7, 2015 (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), between BMO and the SL Agent (as defined below), all extensions of credit under the BMO Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest in and lien upon substantially all present and future assets and properties of the Borrowers. The Original BMO Credit Agreement was further amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to extend the maturity date of the credit facility from February 17, 2017 to April 7, 2018. The borrowing base continues to be determined by eligible inventory, accounts receivable, machinery and equipment and owned real estate amounting to $32.6 million at September 25, 2015. The borrowing base under the BMO Credit Agreement is reduced by the outstanding amount of standby and commercial letters of credit. Currently, the Company’s largest letters of credit relate to its casualty insurance programs. Total outstanding letters of credit were $1.1 million at September 25, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Borrowings under the BMO Credit Agreement continue to bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Borrower’s option, (a) the Base Rate plus applicable Base Rate Margin, which varies from 0.50% to 1.00% based on average excess availability, or (b) reserve adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin, which varies from 1.50% to 2.00% based on average excess availability. The Base Rate is the greatest of (i) BMO Harris’ prime commercial rate as in effect on such day, (ii) the sum of the Fed Funds rate for such day plus 0.5%, and (iii) the Eurodollar Rate for one month plus 1.50%. The Eurodollar Rate is the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate, as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source) with a term equivalent to the applicable one, two, three or six month interest period. An unused commitment fee of 25 basis points per annum is payable quarterly on the average unused amount under the BMO Credit Agreement. Amendment No. 1 amended the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio under the Original BMO Credit Agreement and added a maximum annual capital expenditures, minimum consolidated EBITDA, minimum availability and a leverage ratio covenant. Amendment No. 1 also amended the Original BMO Credit Agreement to permit the secured second lien credit facility described below. The BMO Credit Agreement continues to require a lockbox agreement which provides receipts (subject to certain exceptions) to be swept daily to reduce borrowings outstanding. This provision in the BMO Credit Agreement causes the BMO Credit Agreement to be classified as a current liability, per guidance in the Accounting Standards Codification established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The Company does not expect to repay, or be required to repay, within one year, the balance of the BMO Credit Agreement, which will be classified as a current liability. The BMO Credit Agreement does not expire or have a maturity date within one year, but rather has a final maturity date of April 7, 2018. Second Lien Credit Facility On April 7, 2015, the Company, Continental Commercial Products, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, FTW Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Fort Wayne Plastics, Inc., an Indiana corporation, as borrowers (the “SL Borrowers”) and 2155735 Ontario Inc., an Ontario corporation, and CCP Canada Inc., an Ontario corporation, as guarantors (the “Guarantors,” together with the SL Borrowers, the “SL Obligors”) entered into a Second Lien Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of April 7, 2015, among the SL Obligors, Victory Park Management, LLC, as Agent (the “SL Agent”), and the lenders party thereto (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement”). The Second Lien Credit Agreement provides the SL Borrowers with a $24.0 million term loan. The proceeds of the term loan were used to pay certain fees and expenses related to the negotiation and consummation of the credit facility and the acquisition of our Tiffin, Ohio manufacturing facility (see note 10). Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, all extensions of credit under the Second Lien Credit Agreement are collateralized by a second priority security interest in and lien upon substantially all present and future assets and properties of the SL Obligors. The term loan under the Second Lien Credit Agreement bears interest (i) at a cash interest rate of the LIBOR (One Month) Rate then in effect plus 9.5% per annum and (ii) a Payment in Kind “PIK” interest rate equal to 4.00% per annum. The maturity date of the credit facility under the Second Lien Credit Agreement is April 6, 2019. Pursuant to the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the SL Borrowers are to make quarterly amortization payments and annual excess cash flow prepayments equal to 25% of annual excess cash flow as defined in the agreement. The Second Lien Credit Agreement includes the following financial covenants: a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum annual capital expenditures, a minimum consolidated EBITDA, a minimum availability under the BMO Credit Agreement and a leverage ratio. All of the debt under the BMO Credit Agreement and Second Lien Credit Facility are re-priced to current rates at frequent intervals. Therefore, its fair value approximates their carrying value at September 25, 2015. For the three and nine months ended September 25, 2015, the Company had amortization of debt issuance costs, included within interest expense, of $ 180,000 458,000 56,000 272,000 The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants at September 25, 2015.

RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS [Abstract]
RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS	Note 5. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS Certain subsidiaries have pension plans covering substantially all of their employees. These plans are noncontributory, defined benefit pension plans. The benefits to be paid under these plans are generally based on employees’ retirement age and years of service. The Company’s funding policies, subject to the minimum funding requirements of employee benefit and tax laws, are to contribute such amounts as determined on an actuarial basis to provide the plans with assets sufficient to meet the benefit obligations. Plan assets consist primarily of fixed income investments, corporate equities and government securities. The Company also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for some of its retired employees. The postretirement health plans are unfunded.

INCOME TAXES	Note 7. INCOME TAXES The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. As a result of the acquisition of Ft. Wayne Holdings Inc. (“FTW”), the Company recorded deferred tax liabilities of $2.4 million which reduced its net deferred tax assets. The reduction in deferred tax assets caused a release of a valuation allowance of $2.3 million . As of September 25, 2015 the Company had deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, of $ 80.5 80.6 78.9 79.0 63.7 62.1 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes During the three and nine months ended September 25, 2015, we recorded a reduction in the tax provision for income taxes of $0.1 million due to the reversal of uncertain tax position as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	Note 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES General Environmental Claims The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions are involved in remedial activities at certain present and former locations and have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), state environmental agencies and private parties as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at a number of hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”) or equivalent state laws and, as such, may be liable for the cost of cleanup and other remedial activities at these sites. Responsibility for cleanup and other remedial activities at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula. Under the federal Superfund statute, parties could be held jointly and severally liable, thus subjecting them to potential individual liability for the entire cost of cleanup at the site. Based on its estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs, the probability that other PRPs, many of whom are large, solvent, public companies, will fully pay the costs apportioned to them, currently available information concerning the scope of contamination, estimated remediation costs, estimated legal fees and other factors, the Company has recorded and accrued for environmental liabilities in amounts that it deems reasonable and believes that any liability with respect to these matters in excess of the accruals will not be material. The ultimate costs will depend on a number of factors and the amount currently accrued represents management’s best current estimate on an undiscounted basis of the total costs to be incurred. The Company expects this amount to be substantially paid over the next five to ten years. Other Claims There are a number of product liability, asbestos and workers’ compensation claims pending against the Company and its subsidiaries. Many of these claims are proceeding through the litigation process and the final outcome will not be known until a settlement is reached with the claimant or the case is adjudicated. The Company estimates that it can take up to ten years from the date of the injury to reach a final outcome on certain claims. With respect to the product liability, asbestos and workers’ compensation claims, the Company has provided for its share of expected losses beyond the applicable insurance coverage, including those incurred but not reported to the Company or its insurance providers, which are developed using actuarial techniques. Such accruals are developed using currently available claim information, and represent management’s best estimates, including estimated legal fees, on an undiscounted basis. The ultimate cost of any individual claim can vary based upon, among other factors, the nature of the injury, the duration of the disability period, the length of the claim period, the jurisdiction of the claim and the nature of the final outcome. Although management believes that the actions specified above in this section individually and in the aggregate are not likely to have outcomes that will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow, further costs could be significant and will be recorded as a charge to operations when, and if, current information dictates a change in management’s estimates.

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS	Note 10. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS On February 19, 2014, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of FTW, the parent company of Ft. Wayne Plastics, Inc. (“FWP”), a leading manufacturer of medium- to large- sized molded plastic components, specializing in low pressure, multi-nozzle structural plastic and gas assist solutions, for $11.0 million in cash, less $200,000 in subsequent working capital adjustments. The acquisition of FWP’s premiere manufacturing capabilities and dedication to customer service are highly complementary with the Company. The accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2014, do not include any revenues or expenses related to the acquisition prior to the closing date. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is presented as if the FTW acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. In addition, this unaudited pro forma financial information is provided for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of the historical results that would have been obtained if the acquisition had actually occurred during those periods, or the results that may be obtained in the future as a result of the acquisition.

(the “Company”), completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and business operations related to the plastics shelving and cabinet business of Centrex Plastics, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Centrex”) and T.R. Plastics, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“TR Plastics”) for $23.9 million in cash at closing, plus certain post-closing earnout payments of not less than $2.0 million over three years, as described in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated April 7, 2015 (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and between CCP, Centrex, TR Plastics, and Terrence L. Reinhart, the majority member of Centrex and the sole member of TR Plastics. The acquisition of the Tiffin, Ohio manufacturing facility brings a breadth of shelving and storage cabinet solutions to the Katy consumer storage product line which we believe are highly complementary to our current products. The Company recorded the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition as outlined in the table below. As of the filing date of this Form 10-Q, the Company is still finalizing the allocation of the purchase price, primarily related to goodwill and intangibles .

As the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a basis for estimating the expected term, the Company uses the simplified method for estimating the expected term by averaging the minimum and maximum lives expected for each award. In addition, the Company estimated volatility by considering its historical stock volatility over a term comparable to the remaining expected life of each award. The risk-free interest rate is the current yield available on U.S. treasury issues with a remaining term equal to each award. The Company estimates forfeitures using historical results. Its estimates of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from their estimate. There were no stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 25, 2015 and September 26, 2014. The fair value of SARs, a liability award, was estimated at September 25, 2015 and September 26, 2014 using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS [Abstract]
RRECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU” or “Update”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. On July 9, 2015 the FASB voted to defer the effective date of this standard by one year to December 15, 2017 for the interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date and permitted early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. Companies may use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU. We are currently evaluating which transition approach to use and the full impact this ASU will have on our future financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, to communicate amendments to FASB Account Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” The ASU requires management to evaluate relevant conditions, events and certain management plans that are known or reasonably knowable as of the evaluation date when determining whether substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. Management will be required to make this evaluation for both annual and interim reporting periods. Management will have to make certain disclosures if it concludes that substantial doubt exists or when it plans to alleviate substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and for interim reporting periods starting in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We currently believe there will be no impact on our financial statement disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “ Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This ASU requires companies to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of that debt liability. ASU 2015-03 does not impact the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. Accordingly, we will adopt this ASU on January 1, 2016. Companies are required to use a retrospective approach and we are currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330),” authoritative guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory. Under this new standard, an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments in this guidance should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements. In September 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805),” which eliminates the requirement that an acquirer in a business combination account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Instead, acquirers must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The acquirer still must disclose the amounts and reasons for adjustments to the provisional amounts. The acquirer also must disclose, by line item, the amount of the adjustment reflected in the current-period income statement that would have been recognized in previous periods if the adjustment to provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. Alternatively, an acquirer may present those amounts separately on the face of the income statement. Public business entities must apply the new requirements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods with those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to our future financial statements.
