PART I

Item 1. Business

Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on June 20, 1979. It was formed to acquire an existing golf course and tennis club located in Pasco County, Florida, and develop it into a condominium resort and residential homes project named Saddlebrook Resort (the “Resort”). In November 1988, the Company transferred its real estate development division to its prior parent company and retained only its operation of the Resort.

The Company is currently owned by Saddlebrook Holdings, Inc., which is ultimately owned by Thomas L. Dempsey and his family. Mr. Dempsey acquired the Company from its prior parent company in November 1988.

Based on its numerous awards, the Resort has a reputation as a world-class facility that caters to corporate meeting planners and sports enthusiasts at all skill levels. As a destination resort, it offers luxury accommodations, convention facilities, restaurants, two golf courses, tennis courts, a spa and other recreational areas. An accredited preparatory school at the Resort and anon-site real estate sales office are operated by affiliates of the Company.

The Resort’s accommodations are condominium units that have been sold to third parties or to affiliates of the Company. The majority of the condominium units participate in a rental-pooling program (the “Rental Pool”) that provides its owners with a percentage distribution of related room revenues minus certain fees and expenses. The remainder of the condominium units participate in anon-pooling rental program, are owner-occupied or are designated as hospitality suites or housing for young athletes independent of the rental programs.

All of the Resort’s condominium units are governed by the Saddlebrook Resort Condominium Association, Inc. (the “Association”) in accordance with Florida statutes. The Board of Directors for the Association is elected by the condominium unit owners. The condominium unit owners also approve an annual budget of common expenses for the Association that determines the quarterly assessments that must be paid regardless of the units’ participation in rental programs.

A Resort condominium unit’s participation in a rental program also requires a club membership at the Resort with its separate initiation fees and quarterly dues. The club membership is directed by a Board of Governors appointed by the Company’s management.

The Company’s operation of the Resort is not considered to be dependent upon the availability of raw materials, nor the effect of the duration of patents, licenses, franchises or concessions held.

The Resort’s business is considered to be seasonal with a higher volume of sales during the winter and spring seasons.

Although the Resort’s reputation in the conference-hosting industry is excellent, the market for these services is extremely competitive. Consequently, the Resort aggressively competes against numerous resort hotels and convention facilities both in central Florida and nationwide.

At December 31, 2016,2017, there were approximately 545452 persons employed by the Company. The Company’s management relationship with its employees is excellent and there are no collective bargaining agreements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Not applicable.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 2. Properties

Saddlebrook Resort is located in Wesley Chapel, Florida, which is in south central Pasco County, immediately north of Tampa, Florida.

The Resort is inside the gated community of Saddlebrook. The Resort’s property includes approximately 480 acres of land that are owned by the Company and an affiliate. Located on the Resort’s property are convention facilities with over 95,000 square feet of meeting and function space, three restaurants, two18-hole golf courses, 45 tennis courts, a7,000-square foot luxury health spa, a7,500-square foot fitness center, three swimming pools, shops, and other operational and recreation areas.

A total of 556 condominium units are at the Resort comprised ofone-,two- and three-bedroom suites. Of these condominium units, 408 are designed for hotel occupancy and located in an area called the Walking Village. The remaining 148 are slightly larger, designed for longer-termed rental, and are located in an area called the Lakeside Village. At December 31, 2016,2017, there were 511509 hotel accommodations participating in the Rental Pool. The three-bedroom condominium units become hotel accommodations as atwo-bedroom suite with a separate adjoining hotel room. Sometwo-bedroom condominium units become hotel accommodations as aone-bedroom suite with a separate adjoining hotel room.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, insurance or indemnification from other third parties adequately covers these matters. The effect, if any, of these claims is considered immaterial to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

PART II

Item 5. Market for the Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

The Company’s stock is privately held and there is no established market for the stock.

The right to participate in a rental pool that accompanies the condominium units that were developed and sold by the Company is deemed to be a security. However, there is no market for such securities other than the normal real estate market.

Since the security is the participation right in a rental pool, no dividends have been paid or will be paid to condominium unit owners. However, the condominium unit owners participating in the Rental Pool receive a contractual distribution of rent from the Company quarterly.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

Not applicable.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The Company operates the Resort, which contains condominium units that have been sold to third parties or to affiliates of the Company. The majority of the condominium units are hotel accommodations that participate in the Rental Pool. Other resort facilities owned by the Company and its affiliates include golf courses, tennis courts, a spa, restaurants and a conference center.

Recent Accounting and Reporting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in financial statements. The new standard required management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and became effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Under the provisions of ASU2014-15, an entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. These disclosures are included in Note 3, under the heading Management’s Plans Regarding Liquidity and Capital Resources, and are substantially unchanged from the Company’s historical disclosures.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2015-03, Interest - Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU requires debt issuance costs to be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt rather than as an asset. In 2016, the Company retrospectively adopted this update, as required, and the amounts reclassified from other assets to long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These reclassifications did not impact net income.

In May 2015,2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which creates a new Topic, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goodgoods 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. This standard isIn August 2015, the FASB issued ASU2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU2014-09for the Companyall entities by one year, until years beginning in 2017 and allows for2018, with early adoption permitted but not before 2017. Entities may adopt ASU2014-09 using either a full retrospective adoptionapproach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of adoption. Management believes the majority of the Company’s revenue will not be significantly impacted by this guidance and does not anticipate any significant changes to the manner or timing of the Company’s revenue recognition. The Company is currently evaluatingintends to implement the impactstandard using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect, if any, recognized in retained earnings at the date of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on its financial statements.application.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), intendingLeases. The new standard establishes aright-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. This ASU affects all companiesrecord a ROU asset and other organizations thata lease assets such as real estate, airplanes, and manufacturing equipment. The ASU will require organizations that lease assets referred to as “Lessees” to recognizeliability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. An organization is to provide disclosures designed to enable userspattern of financial statements to understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements concerning additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Under the new guidance, a lesseeexpense recognition. Similarly, lessors will be required to recognize assetsclassify leases as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and liabilities for leases with lease termslessors will be based on an assessment of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurementwhether risks and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising fromrewards as well as substantive control have been transferred through a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a capital or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet thecontract. The new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized. The FASB lessee accounting model will continue to account for both types of leases. The capital lease will be accounted for

in substantially the same manner as capital leases are accounted for under existing GAAP. The operating lease will be accounted for in a manner similar to operating leases under existing GAAP, except that lessees will recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all of the leases. The leasing standard will beis effective for calendar year end public companiesfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this update.

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU2016-18), which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in cash and cash equivalents when reconcilingbeginning-of-period andend-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This standard is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect thatwill implement this guidance in the first quarter of 2018 and will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.adjust corresponding prior periods to conform with the required presentation.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following accounting policies are considered critical by the Company’s management. These and other accounting policies require that estimates be made based on assumptions and judgment that affect revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingencies in the Company’s financial statements. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from these estimates due to different conditions.

Asset Impairments - The Company’s management periodically evaluates whether there has been a permanent impairment of long-lived assets. The Company’s management believes that the accounting estimates related to asset impairments are critical estimates for the following reasons: (1) the ongoing changes in management’s expectations regarding future utilization of assets; and (2) the impact of an impairment on reported assets and earnings could be material. During the years ended December 31, 20162017 and 2015,2016, the Company’s management evaluated assets for impairment and concluded that the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows (excluding interest charges) from its assets exceeded their then current carrying values. Accordingly, the Company did not recognize an impairment charge.

Depreciation Expense - The Company provides for depreciation using the straight-line method at annual rates that amortize the original costs, net of salvage values, of the depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives. Management’s estimation of assets’ useful lives are critical estimates for the following reasons: (1) forecasting the salvage value for long-lived assets over a long period of time is subjective; (2) changes may take place that could render an asset obsolete or uneconomical; and (3) a change in the useful life of a long-lived asset could have a material impact on reported results of operations and reported asset values. The Company’s management believes the estimated useful life corresponds to the anticipated physical life for most assets. Although it is difficult to predict values far into the future, the Company has a long history of actual costs and values that are considered in reaching a conclusion as to the appropriate useful life of an asset.

Revenue Recognition – The Company’s revenues are derived from a variety of sources including, but not limited to, hotel operations, food and beverage operations, retail sales and golf course greens fees, and are recognized as products are delivered or services are performed. Revenues from membership initiation fees are recognized over the average life of the memberships, which management has estimated to be approximately 12 years.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable based upon factors surrounding specific customers, historical trends and other information.

Loss Contingencies – The Company estimates loss contingencies in accordance with FASB ASC450-20Loss Contingencies, which states that a loss contingency shall be accrued by a charge to income if both of the following conditions are met: (a) information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued indicates that it is probable that a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and (b) the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of our litigation matters will have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. As such, there have been no adjustments for loss contingencies to the accompanying financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.2017.

See the Notes to the Financial Statements for Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc. in Item 8 hereof for additional accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Impact of Current Economic Conditions

The Company continues to experience increased occupancy rates, whenexperienced a minor decrease in revenue for the year ending December 31, 2017 compared to prior periods. Ancillary service revenue is now beginning to show increases whenthe previous year. The Company believes this trend will improve during 2018. The increase in expenses for the year ending December 31, 2017 as compared to the prior periods as well. The Company believes that businesses have begun to alter their spending patterns and that thisyear is a result of a turnaroundincreased efforts in the economy.

In response to this trend,its sales programs and upgrades of its golf training program and its two 18 hole golf courses. The investment in these areas will position the Company has increased its sales force to focus more inas one of the area of corporate meetings. top training facilities and golf courses.

The Company continues its marketing efforts toward the social clientele by developing packages designed to target more social guests, including families. These social packages are being promoted through the Company’s website as well as through travel wholesalers and with emphasis one-commerce sites. Management has implemented programs and measures to help the Company get back to positive operating income. These programs and measures include cost control programs, consolidation of restaurant operations and efforts to increase brand awareness and recognition of the Resort.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net loss for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2016 was $1,235,000. Excludingnon-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization of $1,961,000, the Company’s actual operating cash flow was $726,000.

Future operating costs and planned expenditures for minor capital additions and improvements are expected to be adequately funded by the Company and its affiliates’ current cash reserves and cash generated by the Resort’s operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2017 the Company had a deficiency in net working capital with current liabilities exceeding current assets by approximately $12.9 million. The Company’s ultimate shareholder has the financial ability and intent to continue to fund operations through affiliated companies that are 100% owned by the Company’s ultimate shareholder to the extent required to support the Company’s operations. The Company has loans outstanding due to the affiliated companies of approximately $10.9$11.9 million and $10.1$10.9 million as of December 31, 20162017 and 2015,2016, respectively. In addition to the shareholder’s financial ability, these affiliated companies are expected to continue to generate positive cash flows during fiscal year 20172018 should additional funding be required to support the Company’s operations.

The Company’s operation of the Resort is not considered to be dependent on any individual or small group of customers, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 1515(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be reported in the Company’s SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of December 31, 2016,2017, under the direction of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

In addition, management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control framework and processes are designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States.

As of December 31, 2016,2017, management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tread way Commission. Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2016,2017, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must be considered relative to its cost. Because of the inherent limitation in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within the Company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2016,2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

December 31, 20162017 and 20152016

Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc. (the “Company” or “SRI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Saddlebrook Holdings, Inc. (“SHI” or the “Parent Company”), was incorporated in the State of Florida in June 1979 at which time it purchased a golf course and tennis complex, as well as certain undeveloped land, located in Pasco County, Florida, which was developed as a resort-condominium and residential homes project. Property improvements for the resort include condominiums, most of which were sold to outside parties. The majority of the condominium units sold are provided as hotel accommodations by their owners under a Rental Pool and Agency Appointment Agreement (the “Rental Pool”). Other resort facilities include two18-hole golf courses, 45 tennis courts, three swimming pools, three restaurants, a convention facility with approximately 95,000 square feet of meeting and function space, a health spa, a fitness center, shops, and other facilities necessary for the operation of a resort.

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies are as follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Escrowed Cash

All short-term highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less is considered to be cash equivalents.

The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions in the United States. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) covers $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts. The Company from time to time may have amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits. As of December 31, 2016,2017, the Company had approximately $948,000$466,000 of cash and cash equivalents which exceeded these insured limits.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities in accordance with GAAP which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

GAAP defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. GAAP describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2016 and 2015

Level 3 – Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

There were no assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis on December 31, 2016 or 2015.

The fair value of all of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature or market rates of interest associated with long-term obligations.

Accounts Receivable

Substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable is due from direct billings to companies or individuals who hold conferences or large group stays at the resort. Other receivables include quarterly membership fees and credit card charges. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding specific customers, historical trends and other information. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable, although advance deposits may be required in certain circumstances.

Resort Inventory and Supplies

Inventory includes operating materials and supplies, principally food and beverage, golf and tennis merchandise, and is accounted for at the lower offirst-in,first-out, average cost or market.

Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2017 and 2016

Property, Buildings and Equipment

Property, buildings and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets on a straight-line basis.

Certain expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property, buildings and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed, the cost of the assets and related accumulated depreciation amounts are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are reflected in operations.

Asset Impairments

The Company’s management periodically evaluates whether there has been a permanent impairment of long-lived assets (property, buildings and equipment), in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. During the years ended December 31, 20162017 and 2015,2016, the Company’s management evaluated assets for impairment and concluded that the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows (excluding interest charges) from its assets exceeded their then current carrying values. Accordingly, the Company did not recognize an impairment loss during the years ended December 31, 20162017 or 2015.2016.

FinanceDebt Issuance Costs

Finance costs represent costs incurred in connection with the refinancing of the Company’s long-term debt. Amortization expense for finance costs, included in interest expense on the accompanying statements of operations, amounted to approximately $20,100$28,400 for the year ended December 31, 20162017 and $14,000$20,100 for 2015.2016.

Deferred Income

Deferred income includes deferred liabilities related to the sale of gift certificates, prepaid dues, and deferred income of membership initiation fees. Revenue from gift certificates is recorded when the certificate is redeemed. Revenue from dues is recorded over the annual membership period, and the deferred membership initiation fees are recognized over the historical average life of a membership which approximates 12 years.

Resort Revenues

Resort revenues are recognized as services are performed or products are delivered with the exception of initiation fee revenue, which is recognized over the average life of the memberships. Resort revenues also include rental revenues for condominium units owned by third parties participating in the Rental Pool. If these rental units were owned by the Company, normal costs associated with ownership such as depreciation, real estate taxes, unit maintenance and other costs would have been incurred. Instead, operating costs of the resort for the years ended December 31, 20162017 and 20152016 include rental pool distributions to participants and the maintenance escrow fund approximating $3,000,000$3,200,000 and $3,100,000, respectively.

Advertising

The Company charges costs of advertising to sales and marketing as incurred. The Company incurred advertising costs of approximately $349,000$356,000 and $256,000$349,000 during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company is currently a Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiary. Accordingly, no income tax expense was reflected in the Company’s operating results as the tax is assessed to the shareholders of its parent company.

Management has determined that the Company had no uncertain income tax positions that could have a significant effect on the financial statements at December 31, 20162017 and 2015.2016. The parent company’s federal income tax returns for 2013, 2014, 2015 and 20152016 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, generally for a period of three years after the federal income tax returns were filed.

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan (the “Plan”), which provides retirement benefits for all eligible employees who have elected to participate. Employees must fulfill a one year service requirement to be eligible. The Company indefinitely suspended matching contributions effective with the year ended December 31, 2009 and has continued the suspension through 2016.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in financial statements. The new standard required management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going

concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and became effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Under the provisions of ASU2014-15, an entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. These disclosures are included in Note 3, under the heading Management’s Plans Regarding Liquidity and Capital Resources, and are substantially unchanged from the Company’s historical disclosures.

These disclosures are included in Note 1, under the heading “Liquidity and Management’s Plans,” and are substantially unchanged from the Company’s historical disclosures.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2015-03, Interest - Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU requires debt issuance costs to be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt rather than as an asset. In 2016, the Company retrospectively adopted this update, as required, and the amounts reclassified from other assets to long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These reclassifications did not impact net income.

In May 2015,2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which creates a new Topic, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goodgoods 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. This standard isIn August 2015, the FASB issued ASU2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU2014-09for the Companyall entities by one year, until years beginning in 2017 and allows for2018, with early adoption permitted but not before 2017. Entities may adopt ASU2014-09 using either a full retrospective adoptionapproach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of adoption. Management believes the majority of the Company’s revenue will not be significantly impacted by this guidance and does not anticipate any significant changes to the manner or timing of the Company’s revenue recognition. The Company is currently evaluatingintends to implement the impactstandard using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect, if any, recognized in retained earnings at the date of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on its financial statements.application.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), intendingLeases. The new standard establishes aright-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. This ASU affects all companiesrecord a ROU asset and other organizations thata lease assets such as real estate, airplanes, and manufacturing equipment. The ASU will require organizations that lease assets referred to as “Lessees” to recognizeliability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. An organization is to provide disclosures designed to enable userspattern of financial statements to understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements concerning additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Under the new guidance, a lesseeexpense recognition. Similarly, lessors will be required to recognize assetsclassify leases as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and liabilities for leases with lease termslessors will be based on an assessment of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurementwhether risks and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising fromrewards as well as substantive control have been transferred through a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a capital or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet thecontract. The new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized. The FASB lessee accounting model will continue to account for both types of leases. The capital lease will be accounted for in substantially the same manner as capital leases are accounted for under existing GAAP. The operating lease will be accounted for in a manner similar to operating leases under existing GAAP, except that lessees will recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all of the leases. The leasing standard will beis effective for calendar year end public companiesfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this update.

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU2016-18), which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in cash and cash equivalents when reconcilingbeginning-of-period andend-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This standard is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018 and early adoption is permitted.
