An event or transaction is presumed to be an ordinary and usual activity of the reporting entity unless evidence clearly supports its classification as an extraordinary item. ASU 2015–01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Thus, for example, holding companies with a calendar year fiscal year must begin to apply the ASU in their FR Y–9C for March 31, 2016.6 After a holding company adopts ASU 2015–01, any event or transaction that would have met the criteria for extraordinary classification before the adoption of the ASU should be reported in Schedule HI, item 5(l), ‘‘Other noninterest income,’’ or item 7(d), ‘‘Other noninterest expense,’’ as appropriate, unless the event or transaction would otherwise be reportable in another item of Schedule HI. Consistent with the elimination of the concept of extraordinary items in ASU 2015–01, the Federal Reserve proposed to revise the instructions for Schedule HI, item 11, and remove the term ‘‘extraordinary items’’ and revise the captions for Schedule HI, item 8, ‘‘Income (loss) before income taxes and extraordinary items and other adjustments,’’ item 10, ‘‘Income (loss) before extraordinary items and other adjustments’’ and item 11, ‘‘Extraordinary items and other adjustment, net of income taxes effective March 31, 2016. After the concept of extraordinary items has been eliminated and such items would no longer be reportable in Schedule HI, item 11, only the results of discontinued operations would be reportable in item 11. Accordingly, effective March 31, 2016, the revised captions for Schedule HI, items 8, 10 and 11 would become ‘‘Income (loss) before income taxes and discontinued operations,’’ ‘‘Income (loss) before discontinued operations,’’ and ‘‘discontinued operations, net of applicable income taxes’’ respectively. The captions for Schedule HI, memorandum items 2 and 8, and items 8 and 11 on the Predecessor Financial Items and applicable Glossary references would also be revised to eliminate the concept of extraordinary items. No comments were received on the planned changes related to extraordinary items. Accordingly, effective September 30, 2016, the captions for Schedule HI, items 8, 10, 6 Early adoption of ASU 2015–01 is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:34 Sep 07, 2016 Jkt 238001 and 11, would be revised to say ‘‘Income (loss) before income taxes and discontinued operations,’’ ‘‘Income (loss) before discontinued operations,’’ and ‘‘Discontinued operations, net of applicable income taxes,’’ respectively. Similarly, the captions for Schedule HI, memorandum items 2 and 8, and items 8 and 11 on the Predecessor Financial Items and applicable Glossary references would also be revised to eliminate the concept of extraordinary items. Additional Comments One commenter requested clarification on why the proposed change to the Call Report regarding trading revenues due to changes in credit and debit valuation adjustments was not proposed on the FR Y–9C report. The Federal Reserve reviewed this information and determined that the proposed changes are not necessary for the FR Y–9C and that the current information is adequate to meet the Federal Reserve’s supervisory needs.
