Transition from ASC 605 to ASC 606

On January 1, 2018 we adopted Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, or ASC 606, using the full retrospective method. As a result of adopting ASC 606, the following financial information has changed:

Revenue captions in the statements of operations
Under Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition, or ASC 605, we reported perpetual license, subscription, and software support and services revenue. Upon the adoption of ASC 606, we now report license, cloud services, and software support and services revenue.

• License revenue consists primarily of revenue from on-premises perpetual licenses and the license portion of on-premises subscriptions.
• Cloud services revenue includes sales of cloud-based solutions that allow customers to use hosted software over a contract period without taking possession of our software and is typically provided on a subscription or usage basis.
• Software support and services revenue consists of revenue from arrangements to provide software upgrades, updates and technical support to customers with perpetual software licenses and on-premises subscriptions, and professional services.

Revenue recognition and recurring revenue
The most significant impact to revenue from ASC 606 comes from the elimination of the requirement to have vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE, of fair value to separate and recognize revenue for products and services in a contract. The elimination of the VSOE requirement causes a significant change to the timing of revenue recognition for on-premises software term license revenue and other multiple-element arrangements with products or services that lacked VSOE of fair value. Our on-premises term license agreements include distinct software licenses and software update and support services. Under ASC 606, we recognize the software license revenue from on-premises subscriptions at the time of delivery and recognize the associated software update and support services revenue ratably over the term of subscription agreements. Under ASC 605, we recognized all revenue from those arrangements ratably over the term of the subscription agreements.  In addition, the concept of standalone selling price replaces VSOE in determining the value of each component of an arrangement. Because the values assigned to the components of an arrangement using standalone selling price may differ from the values assigned to components of an arrangement using VSOE, different amounts may be allocated to revenue recognized at a point-in-time versus revenue recognized over time.

For the reasons noted above, recurring revenue calculated under ASC 606 is different than recurring revenue calculated under ASC 605. Because under ASC 606 the license component of on-premises subscriptions is recognized upfront instead of ratably over the contract term as it was under ASC 605, recurring revenue reported under the new guidance may show more quarterly variability than it did previously. The year-over-year recurring revenue growth rate from Q4 2016 to Q4 2017 under the ASC 606 method was 12%, which is 3 percentage points lower than the 15% growth rate under ASC 605. For the full year of 2017, we reported a 15% recurring revenue growth rate under ASC 605 and under ASC 606, the growth rate was 14%.

Unearned revenue and customer arrangements with termination rights
Current and noncurrent deferred revenue has been replaced by current and noncurrent unearned revenue and customer arrangements with termination rights. Because some of our arrangements with customers contain termination rights, they do not meet the definition of a contract under ASC 606 and the balances are not recorded as unearned revenue and are instead recorded as "customer arrangements with termination rights" on our consolidated balance sheets. We recognize revenue from those arrangements, including the distinct licenses contained therein, as the termination rights expire which generally results in the arrangement being recognized ratably over the contract term.

Unbilled accounts receivable and DSOs
Under ASC 606 we began to report current and noncurrent unbilled accounts receivable. Unbilled accounts receivable are recorded, for example, when a customer commits to a multi-year subscription term for our on-premises licenses and pays for the subscription in annual installments. This is true even though the unbilled receivables have not yet been invoiced and are not yet due to us. In that example, we record upfront revenue for the license component of the transaction that is not fully billed and record unbilled accounts receivable for the difference between the license revenue recognized and the amount billed. DSOs are impacted because we now include the current portion of unbilled accounts receivable in accounts receivable.  Current unbilled accounts receivable included in accounts receivable at December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 was $2.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively. As a result of this change, DSO increased by 5 days at December 31, 2017 and 4 days at March 31, 2018.

Sales commissions
Under the new guidance we capitalize and amortize sales commissions to closely match the expense with the expected revenue recognition period.  Previously we expensed sales commissions as they were earned. Consequently, we recorded $17.4 million and $18.4 million of deferred commissions on our balance sheets as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.  For the restated periods we observed a general increase in commission expense in the first half of the year and a decrease in the second half of the year.
