The new guidance also requires additional disclosures for discontinued operations to provide more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014 for all new disposals, or new classifications as held for sale, of components of an entity that occur within those years and all businesses that are classified as held for sale that occur within those years. Early application is permitted only for disposals, or classifications as held for sale, that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. Mattel is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-08 on its operating results and financial position.</font></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> <font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman" size="2">In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, <i>Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),</i> which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, <i>Revenue Recognition,</i> and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised 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. The new guidance establishes a five-step model to achieve that core principle and also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted.

ASU 2014-12 will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted.
