Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Segment Reporting
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" (ASU 2023-07), which requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and introduces a reconciliation between segment revenue and segment profitability metrics. As required, we've adopted the standard in the current fiscal year and incorporated all expanded disclosure requirements in Note 14.
Accounting Standards to be Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" (ASU 2023-09), which provides authoritative guidance about expanded annual disclosure requirements for the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The expanded disclosure requirements will be effective starting with our annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. Early adoption is permitted, but we did not early adopt this standard.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03 "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" (ASU 2024-03), which provides authoritative guidance around the expanded disclosure requirements for disaggregation of each relevant expense caption on the income statement within the footnotes as well as a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in these relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively in order to improve transparency and provide more detailed insight into the nature of expenses reported. The expanded disclosure requirements will be effective starting with our annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, but we do not intend to early adopt this standard.
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.
