ASU 2016-02 - Leases.
Issued February 2016
|
- New lease accounting model for lessors and lessees. For lessees, virtually all leases will be required to be recognized on the balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Subsequent accounting for leases varies depending on whether the lease is classified as an operating lease or a finance lease.
- Accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the existing guidance.
- Requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures with the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.
|
- Effective for the fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2018, with early application permitted.
- Management intends to adopt the guidance on January 1, 2019, and has formed a working group comprised of associates from different disciplines, including Procurement, Real Estate, and Credit Administration, to evaluate the impact of the standard where Huntington is a lessee or lessor, as well as any impact to borrower’s financial statements.
- Management is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on Huntington's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including working with associates engaged in the procurement of goods and services used in the entity’s operations, and reviewing contractual arrangements for embedded leases in an effort to identify Huntington’s full lease population.
- Huntington will recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for virtually all of its operating lease commitments. The amounts of right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities recorded upon adoption will be based, primarily, on the present value of unpaid future minimum lease payments as of January 1, 2019. Those amounts will also be impacted by assumptions around renewals and/or extensions, and the interest rate used to discount those future lease obligations. As of December 31, 2017, the Company reported approximately $315 million in minimum lease payments due under such agreements January 1, 2019 forward. While these leases represent a majority of the leases within the scope of the standard, the lease portfolio is subject to change as a result of the execution of new leases and termination of existing leases prior to the effective date, as well as the identification of potential embedded and other leases.

ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.
Issued June 2016
|
- Eliminates the probable recognition threshold for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost.
- Requires those financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected (i.e., net of expected credit losses).
- Measurement of expected credit losses should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount.
|
- Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.
- Adoption will be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.
- Management intends to adopt the guidance on January 1, 2020 and has formed a working group comprised of teams from different disciplines including credit, finance, and risk management to evaluate the requirements of the new standard and the impact it will have on our processes.
- Huntington is currently in the process of developing credit models as well as accounting, reporting, and governance processes to comply with the new credit reserve requirements.
