2. New Accounting Standards:
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to amend either presentation or disclosure requirements related to fourteen subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, that are currently in the SEC Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. The new guidance was issued in response to the SEC’s ruling on disclosure simplification. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements, the effective date of each amendment of the topics will be the date that the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. The guidance must be applied prospectively, with no early adoption permitted for entities subject to those existing SEC disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance as it pertains to the fourteen subtopics that would impact the business and will apply prospectively once in effect.
In August 2023, the FASB issued guidance for entities that meet the definition of a joint venture or a corporate joint venture, to adopt a new basis of accounting upon the formation of the joint venture. The new guidance requires the initial measurement of contributed net assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date, recognition of goodwill for the difference between the fair value of the joint venture’s equity and net assets, and disclosures about the nature and financial impact of the transaction. The new guidance requires prospective application and is effective for all joint ventures that are formed on or after January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. Joint ventures that formed before January 1, 2025 may elect to retrospectively apply the new guidance. The Company will apply the guidance to any new joint ventures formed after the effective date.
In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued guidance to address certain accounting consequences from the anticipated transition from the use of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The new guidance contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. The time period through which the practical expedients provided in the guidance is available was set to expire on December 31, 2022, but was extended through December 31, 2024 by the FASB in December 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index of the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. In February 2023, the Company amended the 2021 Term Loan Facility (as defined below), the ABL Facility (as defined below) and all existing interest rate caps agreements to replace LIBOR with a secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) as the benchmark interest rate. See Note 11 and Note 12 to these condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. The Company utilized the practical expedients under the guidance with respect to the transition of its debt facilities and interest rate hedging arrangements to SOFR, with no impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued guidance that requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with revenue recognition guidance. Under current GAAP, contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination are recorded by the acquirer at fair value. The new guidance creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principles related to business combinations, and is expected to result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree. The new guidance is effective for business combinations occurring during fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2023 as required, and will apply the guidance prospectively to business combinations that occur after the adoption date.
