Impact of Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
On January 1, 2025, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes
(Topic ASC 740) Income Taxes. The ASU improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1)
consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in rate reconciliation and (2) disaggregation of income
taxes paid by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax
disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The
Company adopted this standard on a prospective basis and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The following ASUs have been issued by FASB and may impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
On November 4 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The ASU requires disclosure, in the notes of the financial statements, of specific information about costs and expenses. The amendments require an entity to: (1) disclose the amounts of (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”)
recognized as part of oil-and gas-producing activities included in each relevant expense caption; (2) include certain amounts already required to be disclosed by GAAP in the same disclosure as the other disaggregated requirements; (3) disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and (4) disclose the total amount of selling expenses and an entity's definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the amendments and the impact on its future consolidated statements.
On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The ASU removes all references to a prescriptive and sequential software development method (referred to as “project stages”) throughout Subtopic 350-40. The amendments require an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and for interim reporting within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06.
On November 25, 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements. The ASU clarifies certain aspects of hedge accounting guidance and addresses incremental hedge accounting issues arising from the global reference rate reform initiative. The ASU addresses five key issues and aims to align hedge accounting more closely with the economics of an entity’s risk management activities, enabling entities to achieve and maintain hedge accounting for highly effective economic hedges of forecasted transactions. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Entities should apply the amendments on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-09.
On December 8, 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU aims to enhance the clarity and navigability of guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, and specifies the disclosures required during interim reporting periods. The amendments clarify that Topic 270 applies to all entities that provide interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP. The ASU provides a comprehensive list of interim disclosures required by GAAP, which is intended to improve efficiency in using the Codification. The list clarifies existing requirements and does not aim to expand or reduce current interim disclosure obligations. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. Early adoption is permitted and can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-11.

Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual reporting periods. Entities may elect to early adopt the amendments on a issue-by-issue basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-12.

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.
