Several amendments were issued subsequent to the standard to clarify the guidance. The core principle of the guidance is to recognize revenue in an amount that an entity is entitled to receive in exchange for goods and services. The guidance also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and the related cash flows arising from contracts with customers. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">We intend to adopt this standard for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018, as required, and plan to use the modified retrospective method of adoption. If applicable, this method requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to be recorded on the balance sheet as of the beginning of 2018, as if the standard had always been in effect. If applicable, disclosures in 2018 will include a reconciliation of results under the new revenue guidance compared with what would have been reported in 2018 under the old revenue recognition guidance in order to help facilitate comparability with the prior periods. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">We are currently reviewing our contracts with customers and related financial disclosures to evaluate the impact of the amended guidance on our existing&#160;revenue recognition policies and procedures. We consider tariff sales at our regulated utilities, excluding the revenue component related to alternative revenue programs, to be in the scope of the new standard. We have evaluated the nature of these revenues and do not expect that there will be a significant shift in the timing or pattern of revenue recognition for such sales. However, in our evaluation, we are also monitoring unresolved implementation issues for our industry, including the impacts of the new guidance on our ability to recognize revenue for certain contracts where collectability is uncertain. The final resolution of these issues could impact our current accounting policies and revenue recognition.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Recognition and Measurement of Financial Instruments</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and will be recorded with a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the guidance is effective. This guidance requires equity investments, including other ownership interests such as partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures, and limited liability companies, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. It also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values and amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. This ASU does not apply to investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting. We are currently assessing the effects this guidance may have on our financial statements. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Leases</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and will be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The main provision of this ASU is that lessees will be required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most leases, including those classified as operating leases under GAAP.&#160; We are currently assessing the effects this guidance may have on our financial statements.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Financial Instruments Credit Losses</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;">In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. This ASU introduces a new impairment model known as the current expected credit loss model. The ASU requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Previously, recognition of the full amount of credit losses was generally delayed until the loss was probable of occurring.

This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and will be applied using a retrospective transition method.

This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Under this ASU, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-the period and end-of-the period total amounts shown on the statements of cash flows.

This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Under this ASU, an employer is required to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of the net benefit cost. The amendments provide explicit guidance on how to present the service cost component and the other components of the net benefit cost in the income statement and allow only the service cost component of the net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. The amendments should be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of the net benefit cost in the income statement, and prospectively for the capitalization of the service cost component in assets. We are currently assessing the effects this guidance may have on our financial statements.</font></div></div>
