In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-07 requires public business entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses on an interim and annual basis.

The Company adopted this new accounting standard on this annual report on Form 10-K using a retrospective method (See Note 14. Segment Information).

Not Yet Adopted:

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40). The amendments in ASU No. 2024-03 require that, at each interim and annual reporting period, public business entities disclose in a note to the financial statements the amount of (i) purchases of inventory, (ii) employee compensation, (iii) depreciation, (iv) intangible asset amortization, and (v) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas-producing activities (DD&A) (or other amounts of depletion expense) included in each relevant expense caption in the statements of operation and comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 requires public business entities on an annual basis to (i) disclose in the rate reconciliation both percentages and amounts for certain categories in a tabular format, with further disaggregation of certain categories when the individual reconciling items meet a quantitative threshold, (ii) disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state and foreign, with further disaggregation by individual jurisdictions that meet a qualitative threshold (iii) eliminates the requirement to disclose certain information when it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date or make a statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made and (iv) eliminates the requirement to disclose cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference in certain circumstances. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued.

About New Standards Disclosures

New accounting standards disclosures describe recently adopted pronouncements and those not yet effective, along with management's assessment of their expected impact. This section provides an early warning system for upcoming changes to how a company reports its financial results, often years before the new rules take effect.

Key signals: when management describes a not-yet-adopted standard's impact as "material" or "still being evaluated," it signals potential significant changes to reported metrics upon adoption. Watch for standards that affect a company's core operations — for example, revenue recognition changes for software companies or lease accounting changes for retailers with large store footprints. The transition method chosen (full retrospective versus modified retrospective) affects comparability with prior periods. Companies that delay adoption to the latest permitted date may be struggling with implementation complexity. Compare the disclosed impact assessments against peers in the same industry to gauge whether management's expectations are reasonable.
