CytomX Therapeutics, Inc. New Standards Disclosure
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), which enhances transparency in income statement disclosures. ASU 2024-03 requires entities to disclose detailed information about specific components of income statement expenses, such as employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, as well as other significant expense categories. The objective is to provide financial statement users with greater insight into the nature and variability of expenses, improving their ability to analyze financial performance and make informed decisions. This update applies to all entities, with public entities required to provide both quantitative and qualitative disclosures, while private entities may follow simplified disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which enhances transparency in income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The Company will adopt the ASU for its 2025 Form 10-K on a prospective basis. The Company is evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

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.
