Every technology and life science company will potentially be affected by the new revenue recognition requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification® Topic 606.

The standard takes effect for private companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. It introduces concepts that don’t exist under the current revenue model and can significantly affect an organization’s operations by requiring them to disclose information that isn’t being currently captured.

Please join us to learn how the new standard will potentially impact your company and additional lessons learned from public companies who’ve filed since the new standard was implemented.
