你以前听过, “每笔交易都是不同的,” and that’s no different when it comes to companies reporting their lease liabilities. 1月1日生效, 2022, companies are required to adopt Topic 842 – Leases (“Topic 842”), which significantly changes the presentation of a company’s leasing transactions.
我们可能会看到M的采用&A transactions treated differently – differently in their adoption in past accounting presentations and treatment in the structure of the deal.
Typically, 在资产债务中, 买卖双方进入无现金交易, 无债一身轻的事务, which the buyer purchases the company and its assets on the basis that the seller will pay off all debt and extract all excess cash prior to completion of the transaction. The debt items to be paid off are not typically stated in the letter of intent (“LOI”) and negotiated. Lease obligations are typically treated as debt-like items, 但在842号课题通过之前, operating leases weren’t considered as part the buyer’s assessment of debt-like items.
Comparability and consistency are important in many aspects of a deal. Changes that resulted from the adoption of Topic 842 need to be factored into various aspects of the deal, like the calculation of EBITDA and working capital trends and projections. Buyers and sellers should understand the impact from the new accounting adoption because financial information will look different, 这很可能会影响到交易.
