This standard provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues including:&#160; debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, distributions from equity method investees and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle.&#160; The new standard is effective for us beginning with the first quarter of 2018.&#160; We have elected to adopt this ASU with this Annual Report without any material effect on the presentation of cash flows in our previously issued Consolidated Financial Statements.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:4.54%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, <font style="font-style:italic;">Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash</font>.&nbsp;&nbsp;This standard provides guidance on the cash flow classification of changes in restricted cash and additional disclosure requirements regarding the nature of restrictions on cash.&nbsp;&nbsp;The new standard is effective for us beginning with the first quarter of 2018.&nbsp;&nbsp;We have elected to adopt this ASU retrospectively beginning with this Annual Report and accordingly we have presented all changes in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the statement of cash flows and provided additional disclosure regarding the composition and classification of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and related Footnotes.&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result, net cash used in investing activities increased from $55.1 million to $73.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, and increased from $57.0 million to $54.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, and the negative effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents increased from $9.4 million to $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, and increased from $8.4 million to $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

This standard replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, which in many cases was tailored for specific industries, with a uniform accounting standard applicable to all industries and transactions.&#160; The new standard, as amended, is currently effective for us beginning with the first quarter of 2018.&#160; Entities may elect to adopt ASU No. 2014-09 retrospectively for all periods for all contracts and transactions which occurred during the period (with a few exceptions for practical expediency) or retrospectively with a cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption.&#160; ASU No. 2014-09 is a fundamental rewriting of existing GAAP with respect to revenue recognition, and we are still evaluating the effect the Standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.&#160; We currently expect to adopt the standard in the first quarter of 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to adoption.&nbsp;&nbsp;Generally sales within our Chemicals and Component Products Segments involve single performance obligations to ship goods pursuant to customer purchase orders without further underlying contracts, and as such we expect adoption of this standard will have a minimal effect on revenues from these segments.&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenues from our Waste Management and Real Estate Management and Development Segments are generally under long-term contract and we are in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on the revenues of these two segments.&nbsp;&nbsp;We are in the process of evaluating the additional disclosure requirements across all segments. </p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:4.54%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, <font style="font-style:italic;">Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10):&nbsp;&nbsp;Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities</font>, which addresses certain aspects related to the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments.&nbsp;&nbsp;The ASU requires equity investments (except for those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in the consolidation of the investee) to generally be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.&nbsp;&nbsp;The amendment also requires a number of other changes, including among others:&nbsp;&nbsp;simplifying the impairment assessment for equity instruments without readily determinable fair values; eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose methods and assumptions used to determine fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost; requiring an exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; and requiring separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of asset.&nbsp;&nbsp;The changes indicated above will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2018, with prospective application required, and early adoption is not permitted.&nbsp;&nbsp;The most significant aspect of adopting this ASU will be the requirement to recognize changes in fair value of our available-for-sale marketable equity securities in net income (currently changes in fair value of such securities are recognized in other comprehensive income). </p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:4.54%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, <font style="font-style:italic;">Leases (Topic 842)</font>, which is a comprehensive rewriting of the lease accounting guidance which aims to increase comparability and transparency with regard to lease transactions.&#160;&#160; The primary change will be the recognition of lease assets for the right-of&#8211;use of the underlying asset and lease liabilities for the obligation to make payments by lessees on the balance sheet for leases currently classified as operating leases.&#160;&#160; The ASU also requires increased qualitative disclosure about leases in addition to quantitative disclosures currently required.&#160; Companies are required to use a modified retrospective approach to adoption with a practical expedient which will allow companies to continue to account for existing leases under the prior guidance unless a lease is modified, other than the requirement to recognize the right-of-use asset and lease liability for all operating leases. The changes indicated above will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2019, with early adoption is permitted.&#160; We are currently in the process of assessing all of our current leases across all of our segments.&nbsp;&nbsp;We have not yet evaluated the effect this ASU will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements, but given the material amount of our future minimum payments under non-cancellable operating leases at December 31, 2016 discussed in Note 18, we expect to recognize a material right-of-use lease asset and lease liability upon adoption of the ASU.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;margin-top:8pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">&nbsp;</p></div>
