General | General | |
The Cooper Companies, Inc. (Cooper, we or the Company) is a global medical device company publicly traded on the NYSE Euronext (NYSE: COO). Cooper is dedicated to being A Quality of Life CompanyTM with a focus on delivering shareholder value. Cooper operates through our business units, CooperVision and CooperSurgical. | ||
• | CooperVision develops, manufactures and markets a broad range of soft contact lenses for the worldwide vision correction market. | |
• | CooperSurgical develops, manufactures and markets medical devices and procedure solutions to improve healthcare delivery to women. | |
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements presented in this report contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly Cooper’s consolidated condensed financial position at April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014, the consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 and its consolidated condensed cash flows for the six months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014. Most of these adjustments are normal and recurring. However, certain adjustments associated with acquisitions and insurance proceeds are of a nonrecurring nature. Readers should not assume that the results reported here either indicate or guarantee future performance. | ||
During interim periods, we follow the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014. Please refer to this when reviewing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. | ||
Management estimates and judgments are an integral part of financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We believe that the critical accounting policies listed below address the more significant estimates required of Management when preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We consider an accounting estimate critical if changes in the estimate may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We believe that the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustment to these balances in future periods. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are: | ||
•Revenue recognition | ||
•Net realizable value of inventory | ||
•Valuation of goodwill | ||
•Business combinations | ||
•Income taxes | ||
•Share-based compensation | ||
During the fiscal first half of 2015, there were no significant changes in our estimates and critical accounting policies. Please refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014, for a more complete discussion of our estimates and critical accounting policies. | ||
Accounting Pronouncements Issued Not Yet Adopted | ||
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interests (Subtopic 835-30) Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. We do not anticipate the adoption of these amendments, which are effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2016, will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. | ||
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 sets forth a new revenue recognition model that requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. The amendments in the ASU can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the update recognized at the date of the initial application along with additional disclosures. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09, which is effective for the Company in our fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2017. | ||
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted | ||
On November 1, 2014, we adopted ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. When a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available, or the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. |

Sauflon Acquisition | |||||||
On August 6, 2014, which we refer to as the Sauflon acquisition date, we completed the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of Sauflon Pharmaceuticals Limited (Sauflon), a privately-owned European manufacturer and distributor of soft contact lenses and solutions, based in Twickenham, United Kingdom. The fair value of the consideration transferred for Sauflon was approximately $1,073.2 million in cash, $1,063.1 million net of cash acquired, and approximately $58.0 million in the form of loan notes issued by Cooper. The loan notes were denominated in British pounds and redeemed and paid in our fiscal second quarter of 2015. | |||||||
The Sauflon acquisition was intended to accelerate the growth in sales of our single-use products by enabling a multi-tier, single-use strategy with a full suite of hydrogel and silicone hydrogel product offerings in the major product categories of sphere, toric and multifocal lenses. This acquisition was also intended to provide for enhanced relationships with key European retailers and opportunities for operational synergies. | |||||||
The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, and the related assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value. While the acquisition was completed on August 6, 2014, we accounted for the acquisition as of August 1, 2014, and have included the operating results of Sauflon in our CooperVision business segment from that date. The impact of Sauflon's results of operations for the period August 1, 2014 through August 5, 2014 on our CooperVision business segment results of operations was de minimis. Similarly, we have determined that any difference in the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed with respect to Sauflon between August 1, 2014 and August 6, 2014 was de minimis. | |||||||
The following table summarizes our consideration paid for Sauflon and the preliminary allocation of purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized on August 1, 2014. We repaid substantially all of the acquired debt concurrently with the acquisition with our available funds. | |||||||

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition of Sauflon was ascribed to our CooperVision business segment and is not amortized. This goodwill includes the following: | |||||||
▪ | The expected synergies and other benefits that we believe will result from combining the operations of Sauflon with the operations of CooperVision; | ||||||
▪ | Any intangible assets that did not qualify for separate recognition, as well as future, yet unidentified projects and products; and | ||||||
▪ | The value of the going-concern element of Sauflon's existing businesses (the higher rate of return on the assembled collection of net assets versus if CooperVision had acquired all of the net assets separately). | ||||||
Management determined fair values of the identifiable intangible assets through a combination of income approaches including relief from royalty, with-and-without, multi-period excess earnings and disaggregated methods. The valuation models were based on estimates of future operating projections of the acquired business and rights to sell products as well as judgments on the discount rates used and other variables. We determined the forecasts based on a number of factors, including our best estimate of near-term net sales expectations and long-term projections, which include review of internal and independent market analyses. The discount rate used was representative of the weighted average cost of capital. | |||||||
The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based upon preliminary valuations, and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change as the valuations are finalized, within the measurement period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. We are currently in the process of verifying data and finalizing information related to the Sauflon valuation and income taxes along with the corresponding effect on goodwill. | |||||||
The unaudited pro forma financial results presented below for the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, include the effects of pro forma adjustments as if the acquisition occurred on November 1, 2012. The pro forma results were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and combine the historical results of Cooper and Sauflon for the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, including the effects of the business combination, primarily amortization expense related to the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired, and interest expense associated with the financing obtained by Cooper in connection with the acquisition. The pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the earliest period presented, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results. | |||||||

2014 Sauflon Integration Plan | ||||||||||||||||
During the fiscal fourth quarter of 2014, in connection with the Sauflon acquisition, our CooperVision business unit initiated restructuring and integration activities to optimize operational synergies of the combined companies. These activities include workforce reductions, consolidation of duplicative facilities and product rationalization. We estimate that the total restructuring costs under this plan will be $62.0 million. These costs include about $40.0 million associated with assets, including product rationalization and related equipment disposals and accelerated depreciation, and about $22.0 million associated with employee termination costs and facility lease termination costs. We expect these activities to be completed by our fiscal first quarter of 2016. | ||||||||||||||||
In the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2015, we recorded in cost of sales $5.2 million and $13.9 million of expense, respectively, arising from production-related asset disposals and accelerated depreciation on equipment, primarily related to our hydrogel lenses, based on our review of products, materials and manufacturing processes of Sauflon. In the current three month period, we reduced the accrued employee termination costs in selling, general and administrative expense by $4.5 million based on current estimates of the expected costs and the results of voluntary terminations. We recorded in research and development expense $0.2 million and $0.3 million of employee termination costs in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, respectively. In addition, Coopervision incurred $8.0 million and $14.1 million of integration costs in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, respectively, recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. | ||||||||||||||||
In fiscal 2014, we recorded restructuring charges of $20.3 million for employee termination costs; $15.3 million for product rationalization, including inventory write-offs and production-related asset disposals, primarily related to our Avaira Toric contact lenses, based on our review of products, materials and manufacturing processes of Sauflon; and $0.5 million of lease termination costs for facility closures. In addition, CooperVision incurred $2.8 million of integration costs recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. | ||||||||||||||||
Of the employee termination costs, $19.7 million were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense and $0.6 million in research and development expense. The product rationalization costs were recorded in cost of sales. The lease termination costs and other related costs were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. | ||||||||||||||||

Credit Agreement | ||||||||
On May 31, 2012, Cooper entered into an amendment to our Credit Agreement, dated as of January 12, 2011, by and among the Company, CooperVision International Holding Company, LP, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement, as amended, provides for a multicurrency revolving credit facility in an aggregate commitment amount of $1.0 billion and the aggregate commitment amount under the revolving facility may be increased, upon written request by Cooper, by $500.0 million. The amended Credit Agreement has a termination date of May 31, 2017. | ||||||||
In connection with the Sauflon acquisition, on June 30, 2014, we entered into an amendment (Credit Agreement Amendment) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of January 12, 2011, as amended, by and among (i) the Company, (ii) CooperVision International Holding Company, LP, an indirect subsidiary of the Company, (iii) the lenders from time to time party thereto and (iv) Keybank National Association, as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement Amendment modifies certain provisions of the Credit Agreement to, among other things, amend certain restrictive covenants and related definitions to allow for certain indebtedness, investments, guaranty obligations, acquisitions, intercompany loans, capital distributions and dispositions of assets made or to be made in connection with the acquisition. | ||||||||
The commitment fee rate ranges between 0.100% and 0.275% of the unused portion of the revolving facility based on a pricing grid tied to our Total Leverage Ratio (as defined below and in the Credit Agreement). The applicable margin rates on loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement will bear interest based, at our option, on either the base rate or the adjusted Eurodollar rate (currently referred to as LIBOR) or adjusted foreign currency rate (each as defined in the amended Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin of between 0.00% and 0.75% in respect of base rate loans and between 1.00% and 1.75% in respect of adjusted Eurodollar rate or adjusted foreign currency rate loans, in each case in accordance with a pricing grid tied to our Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. In addition to the annual commitment fee, we are also required to pay certain letter of credit and related fronting fees and other administrative fees pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. | ||||||||
The Credit Agreement is not secured by any of the Company's, or any of its subsidiaries’, assets. All obligations under the Credit Agreement will be guaranteed by each of our existing and future direct and indirect material domestic subsidiaries. | ||||||||
Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the term loans discussed below, we are also required to maintain specified financial ratios: | ||||||||
• | The ratio of Consolidated Proforma EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense (as defined, Interest Coverage Ratio) be at least 3.00 to 1.00 at all times. | |||||||
• | The ratio of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to Consolidated Proforma EBITDA (as defined, Total Leverage Ratio) be no higher than 3.75 to 1.00. | |||||||
At April 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the Interest Coverage Ratio at 42.37 to 1.00 and the Total Leverage Ratio at 2.37 to 1.00. | ||||||||
At April 30, 2015, we had $894.8 million available under the Credit Agreement. | ||||||||
Uncommitted Revolving Lines of Credit on March 24, 2015 | ||||||||
On March 24, 2015, we entered into uncommitted line of credit agreements with TD Bank, N.A. and Santander Bank, N.A. These lines of credit have a termination date of March 24, 2016, and each provide revolving loan amounts to Cooper of up to $100.0 million, at the lender's option, with maturity dates of up to ninety days from the loan origination date. Amounts outstanding under these agreements will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR for the period plus, 0.90%, payable in arrears on the last day of the period, as defined in the agreements. | ||||||||
On March 31, 2015, we borrowed revolving amounts of $100.0 million from TD Bank and $100.0 million from Santander Bank. At April 30, 2015, we had $200.0 million outstanding under these agreements. | ||||||||
$300.0 million Term Loan on September 12, 2013 | ||||||||
On September 12, 2013, the Company entered into a five-year, $300.0 million, senior unsecured term loan agreement by and among the Company; the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent. This syndicated credit facility, as subsequently amended, will mature on September 12, 2018, and will be subject to amortization of principal of 5% per annum payable quarterly beginning October 31, 2016, with the balance payable at maturity. | ||||||||
Amounts outstanding under this term loan agreement will bear interest, at the Company's option, at either the base rate, which is a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) KeyBank's prime rate, (b) 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate and (c) 1% in excess of the adjusted Eurodollar rate (currently referred to as LIBOR) for a one-month interest period on such day, or the adjusted Eurodollar rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margins will be determined quarterly by reference to a grid based upon the Company's Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the term loan agreement, and consistent with the revolving Credit Agreement discussed above. | ||||||||
This term loan agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, as well as financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a certain Total Leverage Ratio and Interest Coverage Ratio, each as defined in the agreement, consistent with the revolving Credit Agreement discussed above. The agreement also contains customary events of default, the occurrence of which would permit the Administrative Agent to declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Company under the agreement to be immediately due and payable. | ||||||||
In connection with the Sauflon acquisition, on June 30, 2014, we entered into an amendment to this term loan agreement, dated as of September 12, 2013, by and among (i) the Company, (ii) the lenders from time to time party thereto and (iii) KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent.

The term loan amendment modifies certain provisions of the term loan agreement to remove the call premium related to prepayments and/or refinancing of the term loan agreement, effective August 4, 2014. | ||||||||
At April 30, 2015, we had $300.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan. | ||||||||
$700.0 million Term Loan on August 4, 2014 | ||||||||
On August 4, 2014, we entered into a three-year, $700.0 million, senior unsecured term loan agreement by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association as administrative agent.

There is no amortization of principal and we may prepay loan balances from time to time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. | ||||||||
Amounts outstanding under this term loan agreement will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either the base rate, which is a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) KeyBank’s prime rate, (b) 0.5% in excess of the federal funds effective rate and (c) 1% in excess of the adjusted Eurodollar rate (currently referred to as LIBOR) for a one-month interest period on such day, or the adjusted Eurodollar rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin.

Components of Income Tax Expense (Benefit), Continuing Operations [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes |
Our effective tax rate (ETR) (provision for income taxes divided by pretax income) for the fiscal first half of 2015 was 8.6%. Our year-to-date results reflect the projected fiscal year ETR, plus any discrete items. The ETR used to record the provision for income taxes for the fiscal first half of 2014 was 9.2%. The ETR is below the United States statutory rate as a majority of our taxable income is earned in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates. | |
We recognize the benefit from a tax position only if it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon audit based solely on the technical merits of the tax position. At November 1, 2014, Cooper had unrecognized tax benefits of which, if recognized, $32.0 million would impact our ETR. For the six-month period ended April 30, 2015, there were no material changes to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits. | |
Interest and penalties of $4.1 million have been reflected as a component of the total liability at November 1, 2014. It is the Company’s policy to recognize the items of interest and penalties directly related to income taxes as additional income tax expense. | |
Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at November 1, 2014, is $10.2 million related to tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts could significantly change during the next twelve months. This amount represents a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to expiring statutes in various jurisdictions worldwide and relates primarily to transfer pricing matters. | |
At April 30, 2015, the tax years for which Cooper remains subject to United States Federal income tax assessment upon examination are 2011 through 2014. Cooper remains subject to income tax examinations in other significant tax jurisdictions including the United Kingdom, Japan, France and Australia for the tax years 2011 through 2014. |

Fair_Value_Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | ||||||||
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements | |||||||
At April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, lines of credit, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments and the ability to obtain financing on similar terms. | ||||||||
Assets and liabilities are measured and reported at fair value per related accounting standards that define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. An asset’s or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are valued and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the valuation hierarchy: | ||||||||
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | ||||||||
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. | ||||||||
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions. | ||||||||
We believe that the balances of our revolving debt and term loans approximated their fair values as of April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014 and are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. | ||||||||
The Company has derivative assets and liabilities that may include interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and foreign currency forward contracts. The impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when in an asset position and Cooper’s creditworthiness when in a liability position has also been factored into the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments. Both the counterparty and Cooper are expected to continue to perform under the contractual terms of the instruments. | ||||||||
We may use interest rate swaps to maintain our desired mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. The swaps exchange fixed and variable rate payments without exchanging the notional principal amount of the debt. We generally have elected to use the income approach to value the derivatives using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated but not compelled to transact. Level 2 inputs are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, specifically Eurodollar futures contracts up to three years, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability - specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals. Mid-market pricing may be used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements. | ||||||||
We may use foreign exchange forward contracts to minimize, to the extent reasonable and practical, our exposure to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. We have elected to use the income approach to value the derivatives using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated but not compelled to transact. Level 2 inputs for the 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 rates, credit risk at commonly quoted intervals, foreign exchange spot rates and forward points. Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements. | ||||||||
The following table sets forth our financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs during the fiscal first half of 2015, within the fair value hierarchy at April 30, 2015, and fiscal year 2014, within the fair value hierarchy at October 31, 2014: | ||||||||

Cooper’s Retirement Income Plan (Plan), a defined benefit plan, covers substantially all full-time United States employees. Our contributions are designed to fund normal cost on a current basis and to fund the estimated prior service cost of benefit improvements. The unit credit actuarial cost method is used to determine the annual cost. Cooper pays the entire cost of the Plan and funds such costs as they accrue. Virtually all of the assets of the Plan are comprised of equities and participation in equity and fixed income funds. | ||||||||||||||||

On or about November 11, 2014, Johnson & Johnson Vision Care (JJVC) filed an action in the district court of Dusseldorf, Germany, against CooperVision GmbH and CooperVision, Inc. (collectively “CooperVision”) for patent infringement. In the action, JJVC alleges that certain CooperVision products infringe JJVC’s European Patent No. EP 1 754 728 B1, and is seeking damages and to enjoin these products from selling in Germany. CooperVision is challenging the validity of the patent before the European Patent Office. | |
The European Patent Office has set its matter on the issue of validity of the JJVC patent for hearing to begin on July 14, 2015. The German district court has set its matter on CooperVision’s alleged infringement of the JJVC patent for trial on August 18, 2015. | |
CooperVision denies JJVC’s allegations of infringement and intends to defend the action vigorously and to continue its challenge to the patent before the European Patent Office. We are not in a position to assess whether any loss or adverse effect on our financial condition is probable or remote or to estimate the range of potential loss, if any. | |
During the period from March 2015 through May 2015, over 50 putative class action complaints were filed by contact lens consumers alleging that contact lens manufacturers, in conjunction with their respective Unilateral Pricing Policy (UPP), conspired to reach agreements between each other and certain distributors and retailers regarding the prices at which certain contact lenses could be sold to consumers. The plaintiffs are seeking damages against CooperVision, Inc., other contact lens manufacturers, distributors and retailers, in various courts around the United States. Motions to consolidate the cases are pending. CooperVision denies the allegations and intends to defend the actions vigorously. We are not in a position to assess whether any loss or adverse effect on our financial condition is probable or remote or to estimate the range of potential loss, if any. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Accounting Pronouncements Issued Not Yet Adopted and Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted | Accounting Pronouncements Issued Not Yet Adopted |
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interests (Subtopic 835-30) Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. We do not anticipate the adoption of these amendments, which are effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2016, will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. | |
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 sets forth a new revenue recognition model that requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. The amendments in the ASU can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the update recognized at the date of the initial application along with additional disclosures. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09, which is effective for the Company in our fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2017. | |
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted | |
On November 1, 2014, we adopted ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. When a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available, or the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. |
