| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | In the opinion of management, the financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods specified. These adjustments consist only of normal recurring accruals except as disclosed herein. Because of seasonal and other factors, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, outsourcing assets, marketable software, goodwill and other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, indemnifications, and assumptions used in the calculation for systems integration projects, income taxes and retirement and other post-employment benefits, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. The company’s accounting policies are set forth in detail in note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such Annual Report also contains a discussion of the company’s critical accounting policies. The company believes that these critical accounting policies affect its more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of the company’s consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes in the company’s critical accounting policies from those disclosed in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. |

| Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
| Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Due to its foreign operations, the company is exposed to the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the U.S. dollar, principally related to intercompany account balances. The company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates on such balances. The company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts, generally having maturities of three months or less, which have not been designated as hedging instruments. At March 31, 2017 and 2016, the notional amount of these contracts was $477.1 million and $406.3 million, respectively. At March 31, 2017 and 2016, the fair value of such contracts was a net loss of $1.2 million and a net gain of $1.1 million, respectively, of which $2.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively, has been recognized in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and $3.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, has been recognized in “Other accrued liabilities” in the company’s consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, changes in the fair value of these instruments was a gain of $5.7 million and a gain of $2.7 million, respectively, which has been recognized in earnings in “Other income (expense), net” in the company’s consolidated statements of income. The fair value of these forward contracts is based on quoted prices for similar but not identical financial instruments; as such, the inputs are considered Level 2 inputs. Financial assets with carrying values approximating fair value include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Financial liabilities with carrying values approximating fair value include accounts payable and other accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The fair value of long-term debt is based on market prices (Level 2 inputs). At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the company's Senior Notes due 2017 was $96.4 million and $97.8 million, respectively, and the fair value of the company's Convertible Senior Notes due 2021, was $355.4 million and $379.8 million, respectively. |

| Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Stock Options | Stock Options Under stockholder approved stock-based plans, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units may be granted to officers, directors and other key employees. At March 31, 2017, 3.0 million shares of unissued common stock of the company were available for granting under these plans. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the fair value of stock option awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions and weighted-average fair values:
There were no grants of stock option awards during the three months ended March 31, 2017. Restricted stock unit awards may contain time-based units, performance-based units or a combination of both. Each performance-based unit will vest into zero to 2.0 shares depending on the degree to which the performance goals are met. Compensation expense resulting from these awards is recognized as expense ratably for each installment from the date of grant until the date the restrictions lapse and is based on the fair market value at the date of grant and the probability of achievement of the specific performance-related goals. The company records all share-based expense in selling, general and administrative expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the company recorded $3.7 million and $3.2 million of share-based compensation expense, respectively, which is comprised of $3.4 million and $2.6 million of restricted stock unit expense and $0.3 million and $0.6 million of stock option expense, respectively. A summary of stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 follows (shares in thousands):
The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pretax value of the difference between the company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the period and the exercise price of the options, multiplied by the number of in-the-money stock options that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2017. The intrinsic value of the company’s stock options changes based on the closing price of the company’s stock. The total intrinsic value of options exercised for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was zero. As of March 31, 2017, $1.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of one year. A summary of restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 follows (shares in thousands):
The fair value of restricted stock units is determined based on the trading price of the company’s common shares on the date of grant. The aggregate weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted stock units granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $13.4 million and $11.6 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, there was $17.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted stock units granted under the company’s plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years. The aggregate weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted stock units vested during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $6.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively. Common stock issued upon exercise of stock options or upon lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units are newly issued shares. Cash received from the exercise of stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was zero. In light of its tax position, the company is currently not recognizing any tax benefits from the exercise of stock options or upon issuance of stock upon lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units. Tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation costs recognized are classified as operating cash flows. |

| Segment Information | Segment Information The company has two business segments: Services and Technology. Revenue classifications within the Services segment are as follows:
The accounting policies of each business segment are the same as those followed by the company as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are priced as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Accordingly, the Technology segment recognizes intersegment revenue and manufacturing profit on hardware and software shipments to customers under Services contracts. The Services segment, in turn, recognizes customer revenue and marketing profits on such shipments of company hardware and software to customers. The Services segment also includes the sale of hardware and software products sourced from third parties that are sold to customers through the company’s Services channels. In the company’s consolidated statements of income, the manufacturing costs of products sourced from the Technology segment and sold to Services customers are reported in cost of revenue for Services. Also included in the Technology segment’s sales and operating profit are sales of hardware and software sold to the Services segment for internal use in Services engagements. The amount of such profit included in operating income of the Technology segment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The profit on these transactions is eliminated in Corporate. The company evaluates business segment performance based on operating income exclusive of pension income or expense, restructuring charges and unusual and nonrecurring items, which are included in Corporate. All other corporate and centrally incurred costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on revenue, employees, square footage or usage. A summary of the company’s operations by business segment for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 is presented below:
Presented below is a reconciliation of total business segment operating income to consolidated loss before income taxes:
Customer revenue by classes of similar products or services, by segment, is presented below:

Commitments and Contingencies |

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies There are various lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings that have been brought or asserted against the company, which arise in the ordinary course of business, including actions with respect to commercial and government contracts, labor and employment, employee benefits, environmental matters, intellectual property, and non-income tax matters. The company records a provision for these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Any provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and are adjusted to reflect the impact and status of settlements, rulings, advice of counsel and other information and events pertinent to a particular matter. The company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against it. Based on its experience, the company also believes that the damage amounts claimed in the lawsuits disclosed below are not a meaningful indicator of the company’s potential liability. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, however, and it is possible that the company’s results of operations or cash flow could be materially affected in any particular period by the resolution of one or more of the legal matters pending against it. In April 2007, the Ministry of Justice of Belgium sued Unisys Belgium SA-NV, a Unisys subsidiary (Unisys Belgium), in the Court of First Instance of Brussels. The Belgian government had engaged the company to design and develop software for a computerized system to be used to manage the Belgian court system. The Belgian State terminated the contract and in its lawsuit has alleged that the termination was justified because Unisys Belgium failed to deliver satisfactory software in a timely manner. It claims damages of approximately €28 million. Unisys Belgium filed its defense and counterclaim in April 2008, in the amount of approximately €18.5 million. The company believes it has valid defenses to the claims and contends that the Belgian State’s termination of the contract was unjustified. The company’s Brazilian operations, along with those of many other companies doing business in Brazil, are involved in various litigation matters, including numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes, as well as disputes associated with former employees and contract labor. The tax-related matters pertain to value added taxes, customs, duties, sales and other non-income related tax exposures. The labor-related matters include claims related to compensation matters. The company believes that appropriate accruals have been established for such matters based on information currently available. At March 31, 2017, excluding those matters that have been assessed by management as being remote as to the likelihood of ultimately resulting in a loss, the amount related to unreserved tax-related matters, inclusive of any related interest, is estimated to be up to approximately $132 million. On June 26, 2014, the State of Louisiana filed a Petition for Damages against, among other defendants, the company and Molina Information Systems, LLC, in the Parish of East Baton Rouge, 19th Judicial District. The State alleged that between 1989 and 2012 the defendants, each acting successively as the State’s Medicaid fiscal intermediary, utilized an incorrect reimbursement formula for the payment of pharmaceutical claims causing the State to pay excessive amounts for prescription drugs. The State contends overpayments of approximately $68 million for the period January 2002 through July 2011 and is seeking data to identify the claims at issue for the remaining time period. The company believes that it has valid defenses to Louisiana's claims and is asserting them in the pending litigation. With respect to the specific legal proceedings and claims described above, except as otherwise noted, either (i) the amount or range of possible losses in excess of amounts accrued, if any, is not reasonably estimable or (ii) the company believes that the amount or range of possible losses in excess of amounts accrued that are estimable would not be material. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such matters could exceed the amounts accrued in an amount that could be material to the company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in any particular reporting period. Notwithstanding that the ultimate results of the lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings that have been brought or asserted against the company are not currently determinable, the company believes that at March 31, 2017, it has adequate provisions for any such matters. |

Income Taxes |

| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes Accounting rules governing income taxes require that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. These rules also require that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the company’s historical profitability, forecast of future taxable income and available tax-planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. The company uses tax-planning strategies to realize or renew net deferred tax assets to avoid the potential loss of future tax benefits. A full valuation allowance is currently maintained for all U.S. and certain foreign deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities. The company will record a tax provision or benefit for those international subsidiaries that do not have a full valuation allowance against their net deferred tax assets. Any profit or loss recorded for the company’s U.S. continuing operations will have no provision or benefit associated with it due to full valuation allowance, except with respect to refundable tax credits and withholding taxes not creditable against future taxable income. As a result, the company’s provision or benefit for taxes may vary significantly depending on the geographic distribution of income. |

Accounting Standards |

| Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
| Accounting Standards | Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amended guidance, an entity will perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. Adoption of this new guidance had no impact on the company's consolidated results of operations and financial position. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance issued by the FASB which allows the recognition of deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. Historically, recognition of the income tax consequence was not recognized until the asset was sold to an outside party. The new guidance has been applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to accumulated deficit. At January 1, 2017, the adjustment to accumulated deficit was an increase of $4.4 million. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance which clarifies the treatment of several cash flow categories. In addition, the guidance also clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. The company previously reported premium payments on and proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies as cash flows from operating activities in the company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Under the new guidance, these amounts were reclassified to investing activities. The new guidance has been applied on a retrospective basis whereby prior-period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the application of the new guidance, as required by the FASB. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, $0.8 million was reclassified from "(Increase) decrease in other assets" in operating activities to "Other" in investing activities in the company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance that changes certain aspects of accounting for share-based payments to employees. The new guidance requires all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. It also allows an employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. Additionally, the standard requires all tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments to be reported as operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows, and any cash payments made to taxing authorities on an employee's behalf as financing activities, which the company previously reported as operating activities. The new guidance has been applied on a retrospective basis whereby prior-period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the application of the new guidance, as required by the FASB. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, $0.4 million was reclassified from "decrease in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities" in operating activities to "other" in financing activities in the company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance issued by the FASB which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance has been applied on retrospective basis whereby prior-period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the application of the new guidance, as required by the FASB. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the reclassification in the consolidated statement of cash flows resulted in a $0.5 million increase to "(Increase) decrease in other assets" in operating activities, a $1.2 million increase in "Other" in investing activities, a $0.5 million increase in "Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash," a $31.6 million increase in "Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period," and a $33.8 million increase in "Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period." In March 2017, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. The new guidance requires employers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. The other components of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, which for the company is January 1, 2018. Adoption of this new guidance will result in the reclassification of net periodic benefit cost from operating income to non-operating income. There will be no overall impact on the company's consolidated results of operations and financial position. In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected losses. This includes trade and other receivables, loans and other financial instruments. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with earlier adoption permitted. The company is currently assessing when it will choose to adopt, and is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued a new lease accounting standard entitled “Leases.” The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The new rule will require organizations that lease assets, referred to as lessees, to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The standard requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which for the company is January 1, 2019. Earlier adoption is permitted. The company is currently assessing when it will choose to adopt, and is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated results of operations and financial position. In 2014, the FASB issued a new revenue recognition standard entitled “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The objective of the standard is to establish the principles that an entity shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from a contract with a customer. The standard, and its various amendments, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, which for the company is January 1, 2018. The standard allows for either “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods presented, or “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. Generally the new standard would require the company to recognize revenue for certain transactions, including extended payment term software licenses and short-term software licenses, sooner than the current rules would allow. The company will adopt the standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial position and currently does not believe that there will be a material impact upon adoption or on a go-forward basis. However, the final impact cannot be determined until the end of 2017 and it will be impacted by transactions entered into during 2017. |

| Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt | Debt Long-term debt is comprised of the following:
On April 17, 2017, the company issued $440 million aggregate principal amount of 10.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the “notes”). The notes are initially fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Unisys Holding Corporation, Unisys AP Investment Company I and Unisys NPL, Inc. In the future, the notes will be guaranteed by each material domestic subsidiary and each restricted subsidiary that guarantees the secured revolving credit facility and other indebtedness of the company or another subsidiary guarantor. The notes and the guarantees will rank equally in right of payment with all of the existing and future senior debt of the company and the subsidiary guarantors. The notes and the guarantees will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including preferred stock, trade payables and pension liabilities) of its subsidiaries that are not subsidiary guarantors. The notes will pay interest semiannually on April 15 and October 15, commencing on October 15, 2017 at an annual rate of 10.75%, and will mature on April 15, 2022, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed. The company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the notes at any time on or after April 15, 2020 at a redemption price determined in accordance with the redemption schedule set forth in the indenture governing the notes (the “indenture”), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Prior to April 15, 2020, the company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the notes at any time, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The company may also redeem, at its option, up to 35% of the notes at any time prior to April 15, 2020, using the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 110.750% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, the company may redeem all (but not less than all) of the notes at any time that the Collateral Coverage Ratio is less than the Required Collateral Coverage Ratio (as such terms are described below and further defined in the indenture) at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The indenture contains covenants that limit the ability of the company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem its capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt; (iv) make certain prepayments in respect of pension obligations; (v) issue certain preferred stock or similar equity securities; (vi) make loans and investments (including investments by the company and subsidiary guarantors in subsidiaries that are not guarantors); (vii) sell assets; (viii) create or incur liens; (ix) enter into transactions with affiliates; (x) enter into agreements restricting its subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (xi) consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets. These covenants are subject to several important limitations and exceptions. The indenture also includes a covenant requiring that the company maintain a Collateral Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.50:1.00 (the “Required Collateral Coverage Ratio”) as of any test date. The Collateral Coverage Ratio is based on the ratio of (A) Grantor (as defined in the indenture) unrestricted cash and cash equivalents plus 4.75 multiplied by of the greater of (x) Grantor EBITDA (as defined in the indenture) for the most recently ended four fiscal quarters and (y) (i) the average quarterly Grantor EBITDA for the most recently ended seven fiscal quarters, multiplied by (ii) four, to (B) secured indebtedness of the Grantors. The Collateral Coverage Ratio is tested quarterly. If the Collateral Coverage Ratio is less than the Required Collateral Coverage Ratio as of any test date, and the company has not redeemed the notes within 90 days thereafter, this will be an event of default under the indenture. If the company experiences certain kinds of changes of control (as defined in the indenture), it must offer to purchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, if the company sells assets under certain circumstances it must apply the proceeds towards an offer to repurchase notes at a price equal to par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The indenture also provides for events of default, which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding notes to be due and payable immediately. On April 17, 2017, Unisys irrevocably deposited with the trustee for its 6.25% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “2017 notes”) sufficient funds to fund the redemption of the 2017 notes remaining outstanding. As a result, the company has been released from its obligations under the 2017 notes and the indenture governing those notes pursuant to the satisfaction and discharge provisions thereunder, except with respect to those provisions that by their terms survive the satisfaction and discharge. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, $4.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, was recorded as interest expense on the Convertible Notes due 2021, which includes the contractual interest coupon: (2017 - $2.9 million, 2016 - $0.5 million), amortization of the debt discount: (2017 - $1.5 million, 2016 - $0.2 million), and amortization of the debt issuance costs: (2017 - $0.3 million, 2016 - $0.0 million). |

Additionally, the standard requires all tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments to be reported as operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows, and any cash payments made to taxing authorities on an employee's behalf as financing activities, which the company previously reported as operating activities. The new guidance has been applied on a retrospective basis whereby prior-period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the application of the new guidance, as required by the FASB. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, $0.4 million was reclassified from "decrease in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities" in operating activities to "other" in financing activities in the company's consolidated statement of cash flows. Effective January 1, 2017, the company adopted new guidance issued by the FASB which requires companies to include amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance has been applied on retrospective basis whereby prior-period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the application of the new guidance, as required by the FASB. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the reclassification in the consolidated statement of cash flows resulted in a $0.5 million increase to "(Increase) decrease in other assets" in operating activities, a $1.2 million increase in "Other" in investing activities, a $0.5 million increase in "Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash," a $31.6 million increase in "Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period," and a $33.8 million increase in "Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period." In March 2017, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. The new guidance requires employers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Only the service cost component will be eligible for capitalization in assets. The other components of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income, if one is presented. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, which for the company is January 1, 2018. Adoption of this new guidance will result in the reclassification of net periodic benefit cost from operating income to non-operating income. There will be no overall impact on the company's consolidated results of operations and financial position. In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected losses. This includes trade and other receivables, loans and other financial instruments. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with earlier adoption permitted. The company is currently assessing when it will choose to adopt, and is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued a new lease accounting standard entitled “Leases.” The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The new rule will require organizations that lease assets, referred to as lessees, to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The standard requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which for the company is January 1, 2019. Earlier adoption is permitted. The company is currently assessing when it will choose to adopt, and is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated results of operations and financial position. In 2014, the FASB issued a new revenue recognition standard entitled “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The objective of the standard is to establish the principles that an entity shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from a contract with a customer. The standard, and its various amendments, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, which for the company is January 1, 2018. The standard allows for either “full retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods presented, or “modified retrospective” adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. Generally the new standard would require the company to recognize revenue for certain transactions, including extended payment term software licenses and short-term software licenses, sooner than the current rules would allow. The company will adopt the standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial position and currently does not believe that there will be a material impact upon adoption or on a go-forward basis. However, the final impact cannot be determined until the end of 2017 and it will be impacted by transactions entered into during 2017. |
