CHALLENGES

First Challenge:

SUCCEED WITH

ASC 606

The Clock is Ticking Louder For Public Companies

INSERT STORY HEADLINES

The buzz is only just beginning …

The window for public companies to prepare is

closing soon

Private companies only have one more year

This will become even bigger news after the

deadline passes

Audits and restatements will be reported on …

Expect extensions and earnings delays

We will read about those who were not prepared

“Hopefully, fear is what

you’re feeling now”

--- Josh Paul, Director of

Accounting, Alphabet Inc.

We Understand The Pressure You Feel

Consider Sarbanes Oxley

• Restatements peaked after the rules were introduced

• The #1 reason was Revenue Recognition Errors

• Valuation drops for 50 days after a restatement ~6%

• Reputations with investors take years to repair

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

Three things you need to know

Lesson #1

● Recast planning playbook

● Automate the process of recasting

● Review contracts under both old and new

guidance in parallel

Lesson #2

revenue-aware

reporting under the new guidelines

THE CHALLENGE: HOW WE UNIQUELY HELP

IT SYSTEMS READINESS

● Automatically augment and enrich your upstream

data for accurate revenue recognition

● Configurable data validation engine that

automatically gives you visibility into data issues

● Pre-built APIs to feed your reporting systems to

report under the new guidelines

Lesson #3

The nuances of interpreting ASC 606 e.g.:

● Contract Modification & Policies

● Identifying performance obligations

● Variable Consideration

● Contract Assets/Liabilities

● Accounting for contract expenses

● Unique ASC 606 reporting requirements

THE CHALLENGE: HOW WE UNIQUELY HELP

Your Second Challenge:

MAKE FINANCE THE

PICTURE OF AGILITY

IT’S EVEN HARDER TODAY

THAN A DECADE AGO

10 YEARS AGO

IT WAS SEEN AS

THE “DR. NO” OF THE BUSINESS

TODAY

WITH THE CLOUD

IT

HAS BECOME

AGILE AND RESPONSIVE

FINANCE

IS AT RISK OF BECOMING

THE NEW

“DR. NO”

Workloads are increasing and teams are understaffed

• 62% are understaffed• 25% hire temp workers to help• Accounting needs are growing 4% faster than average

Can’t continue to just throw people at the problem: • 2016=9% had more than 10,000 GL accounts• 2017=17% had more than 10,000 GL accounts
