(1) We adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" using the full retrospective transition method and recast results from 2016 and 2017 including all interim periods therein. Results from periods prior to 2016 have not been recast for the adoption of this standard. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," and Note 2, "Revenue Recognition," of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
