Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) ("ASU 2024-04"), which intends to clarify the conditions in which induced conversion applies to convertible debt by outlining three criteria that must be met for an entity to apply the induced conversion model. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025 (and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods). Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a reporting period if an entity has also adopted ASU 2020-06 for that period. The Company early adopted ASU 2024-04 on July 1, 2025 on a prospective basis and applied the amendments in this ASU to the repurchase of the 2026 Convertible Notes. The early adoption had no impact on the Company’s accounting assessment. Refer to Note 7. Debt, to the consolidated financial statements for further details.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires that an entity disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, ASU 2023-09 requires certain disclosures of state versus federal income tax expense and taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company adopted the standard on a prospective basis with an effective date for the year ended December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 14. Income Taxes to the consolidated financial statements for related disclosures.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Pending Adoption
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires that an entity breaks down expenses into specific categories, such as employee compensation and costs related to depreciation and amortization, as well as a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. Further, ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expense and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are required to be adopted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis for financial statements issued after the adoption date, although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on its financial disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025-05”), which amends Topic 326 to provide a practical expedient and an accounting policy election related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. Specifically, in developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses, all entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (“Subtopic 350-40”): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). ASU 2025-06 modernizes the accounting for internal-use software costs by increasing the operability of the recognition guidance considering different methods of software development. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment can be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified prospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (“Topic 270”): Narrow-scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). ASU 2025-11 enhances GAAP interim reporting by specifying required disclosures, establishing a disclosure principle for material post-year-end events, and clarifying the scope, types, and presentation of interim financial statements. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, for public business entities and for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, for entities other than public business entities. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment can be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard; however, it does not expect that the standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

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.
