Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Pronouncements Adopted in 2025
In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures to improve transparency of income tax disclosures, primarily by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted the guidance for the year ended December 31, 2025, and our disclosures regarding income taxes were expanded. See Note 8 - Income Taxes. The guidance has been applied prospectively, therefore, certain comparative information for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 has not been reported where new disclosures not previously required are presented.
Pronouncements Not Yet Effective
In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses, by providing more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. As amended by ASU 2025-01 issued in January 2025, the amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Upon adoption, our disclosures regarding expenses will be expanded.
In July 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-05 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which allows public business entities to apply a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The amendment is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment will be applied prospectively. Upon adoption, our disclosures regarding estimating expected credit losses will be expanded.
In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-11—Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements to clarify the applicability of Topic 270, including types of interim reporting and the form and content of interim financial statements. It also provides a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures and requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendment is effective for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the update to have an effect on our interim reporting.

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.
