These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, investments, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, tax accruals and other liabilities. In addition, estimates are used in revenue recognition, income tax expense, performance and share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, litigation matters and other matters, as well as in the valuation of contingent consideration and noncontrolling interests resulting from business combination transactions.

The Company adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. However, these estimates may involve significant uncertainties and judgments and cannot be determined with precision. In addition, these estimates are based on management’s best judgment at a point in time and as such these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results. Changes in estimates resulting from weakness in the economic environment or other factors beyond the Company’s control could be material and would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements in future periods.</span></div>

ASU No. 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that will require the reflection of expected credit losses and will also require consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to determine credit loss estimates. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Targeted Transition Relief</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, which amends ASC Topic 326 to provide an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost. In November 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2019-11 to provide clarification guidance in a number of areas, including: (i) expected recoveries for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration, (ii) transition relief for troubled debt restructuring, (iii) disclosures related to accrued interest receivables, and (iv) financial assets secured by collateral maintenance provisions. For most financial instruments, the standard will require the use of a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses, which will generally result in the earlier recognition of credit losses on financial instruments. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-02, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments — Credit Losses </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">and</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;"> Leases</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, which includes amendments pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119. This standard will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:11px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">as part of the FASB’s broader disclosure framework project. ASU No. 2018-13 removes, modifies and adds certain disclosures providing greater focus on requirements that clearly communicate the most important information to the users of the financial statements with respect to fair value measurements. The standard is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, with early adoption permitted. Most of the disclosure requirements in ASU No. 2018-13 would need to be applied on a retrospective basis except for the guidance related to (i) unrealized gains and loss included in other comprehensive income, (ii) disclosure related to range and weighted average Level 3 unobservable inputs and (iii) narrative disclosure requirements on measurement uncertainty, which are required to be applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this standard, which relates to disclosure, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:8px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans — General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

ASU No. 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance also specifies that the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows presentation of capitalized implementation costs and the related amortization should align with the presentation of the hosting (service) element of the arrangement. The standard is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, with early adoption permitted. Entities have the option to apply the guidance prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption or retrospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. However, to the extent future costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement are capitalizable, the corresponding amortization will be included in “Direct operating expenses” or “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of operations, rather than “Depreciation and amortization.”</span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:8px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, </span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities</span><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">. ASU No. 2018-17 amends the variable interest entities (“VIE”) guidance to align the evaluation of a decision maker’s or service provider’s fee in assessing a variable interest with the guidance in the primary beneficiary test. Specifically, indirect interests held by a related party that is under common control will now be considered on a proportionate basis, rather than in their entirety, when assessing whether the fee qualifies as a variable interest. The proportionate basis approach is consistent with the treatment of indirect interests held by a related party under common control when evaluating the primary beneficiary of a VIE. This effectively means that when a decision maker or service provider has an interest in a related party, regardless of whether they are under common control, it will consider that related party’s interest in a VIE on a proportionate </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:8px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">basis throughout the VIE model, for both the assessment of a variable interest and the determination of a primary beneficiary.

The amount recorded as a reduction of the transaction price is measured using the grant-date fair value of the award and is classified in accordance with ASC Topic 718. Changes in the measurement of the share-based payments after the grant date that are due to the form of the consideration are not included in the transaction price and are recorded elsewhere in the statement of operations. The award is measured and classified under ASC Topic 718 for its entire life, unless the award is modified after it vests and the grantee is no longer a customer.
