The accounting standard for recognizing revenue is changing – is your organization prepared for ASC 606? The revenue recognition standard defines new rules on how companies recognize revenue from contracts with customers, representing substantial changes and a major transition. ASC 606 is an updated accounting standard issued by FASB and IASB that is intended to increase financial statement comparability across companies and reduce the complexity in revenue recognition. The guidelines cover processes starting with contracts and continues through pricing, quotes, orders, and ending with revenue recognition.
Explore the top options available to prepare for the upcoming transition period by registering for our webinar with Seamus Moran from Oracle, Hari Mundhra and Gourav Rathi from Deloitte Consulting LLP, and Tom Buechler from eprentise. This panel discussion moderated by eprentise CEO Helene Abrams will provide an overview of the new standard, highlight the areas of significant changes to be ready for, and discuss the recommended approaches for your organization, all in a Q&A format.

Thank you for joining today’s presentation entitled, “Preparing for ASC 606.” This is an exclusive panel hosted by eprentise that will also feature experts from Oracle and Deloitte. We are really excited for this event, and because of the format of the panel, we are kicking off the presentation with the first of our polling questions, which you’ll currently notice on the screen. We will be offering CPE credits for today’s webinar, and as such, we will be presenting polling questions throughout the session, starting with this one. I’ll be wrapping up this poll shortly, so please get your answers in, and let me know if you are having any technical details.
For anyone who hasn’t joined us before, please note that when we make a poll available, you will simply click on your preferred answer and click Submit. If you would like to receive CPE credit for today’s webinar, you must respond to all our polling questions. The CPE certificate will be emailed to you within 1 week.
I will now close the poll, and will give back presenter controls so that I can go into a few housekeeping items on slide 3 to let you know how you can participate in today’s web event.
On this slide, we’re looking at an example of the Webex Attendee Interface. We are currently sharing this presentation with you in full-screen mode, so you should notice a Viewing toolbar displayed at the top of your screen. From that toolbar, you have access to resources like the Chat pane, which you can use to send us messages for any issues you are having or to share any comments you’d like to make with me as your moderator. There is also a Questions pane, which is where I will ask you to send questions related to the presentation content itself and that will be addressed by our speakers. To ask a question, simply click on the Q&A button in your viewing toolbar, type in your question and click send. Please make sure to send any message from the chat pane and especially any questions in the Q&A pane to all hosts and panelists so that we can ensure it is received and answered. If you send it to only one person, it may not be seen. Although we will not have time for live Q&A today, we will make sure to address your questions after the webinar.
Due to the format of today’s panel, we will post all of the questions from our moderator and answers from our panelists on the LinkedIn group, EBS Answers, within 2 weeks. A lot of you are members already, but if you haven’t joined this interactive group yet, we invite you to do so to see the Q&A, ask follow up questions or even provide your own answers, comments or discussions. The link to that group page was in your webinar invitation email and will also be included in your follow up email.
As a final reminder, today’s Webinar is being recorded, and everyone will receive an email with a link to view a recording of today’s event.
Finally, let’s get into the learning objectives.
