New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
Accounting Standards Pending Adoption
ASU No. 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative" ("ASU 2023-06") incorporates into the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification) several U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") disclosure requirements under Regulations S-K and S-X. The amendments in the ASU are intended to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Codification Topics, allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. These requirements are similar to, but require additional information than, generally accepted accounting principles. These new updates modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2023-06 prospectively. For entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements and for entities that have to file or provide financial statements with or to the SEC for the purpose of selling or issuing securities that do not have contractual limits on transfer, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. As a result, the effective date will be different for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s deletion of the related disclosure. Early adoption is prohibited. For all other entities, the effective date will be two years later. Early adoption is permitted for these entities, but not before the provisions of the ASU become effective for entities subject to SEC’s regulation. The effective dates of the amendments are predicated on the SEC removing its related disclosure requirements from its regulations. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective for any entity. We are currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40); Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" ("ASU 2024-03") which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. ASU 2024-03 adds to ASC 220-40, requiring public business entities to disaggregate within the financial statement footnotes, in a tabular presentation, each relevant expense caption on the face of the income statement that includes any of the following natural expenses: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities or other types of depletion expenses. The tabular disclosure would also include certain other expenses, when applicable. ASU 2024-03 does not change or remove existing
expense disclosure requirements; however, it may affect where that information appears in the footnotes to the financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this Update or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The company will expand its disclosures in the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods after to include disaggregated information related to the expenses required by the standard.
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") amends guidance related to the accounting for internal-use software development costs. The amendments are intended to modernize the recognition and capitalization framework to reflect current software development practices, including iterative and agile methodologies, by removing references to "development stages". It also clarifies the criteria for capitalization, which begins when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods, which for the Company would be the fiscal first quarter ending March 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. ASU 2025-06 allows companies to elect one of the following adoption methods to apply its amendments: a prospective transition approach, a retrospective transition approach, or a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard will have on its policy for capitalization of development costs for software intended for internal use.
ASU No. 2025-07, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Derivatives Scope Refinements (Issue 1)" ("ASU 2025-07"). In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 to refine the scope of derivative accounting under ASC 815 and clarify the treatment of share-based noncash consideration from customers under ASC 606. The update provides a new scope exception for certain contracts based on a party’s own operations, removing them from derivative accounting. It also clarifies that share-based consideration from customers should be measured at fair value at contract inception and included in the transaction price only if the right to receive it is unconditional. Subsequent fair value changes before the right becomes unconditional are not recognized in revenue. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted, and transition options include prospective or modified retrospective application. Entities will need to reassess existing contracts and update processes for valuation and revenue recognition related to customer share-based payments. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2025-09, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)— Hedge Accounting Improvements" ("ASU 2025-09"). In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09 to provide significant improvements to hedge accounting under FASB ASC 815, primarily by giving companies more flexibility to align hedge accounting with their actual risk management, especially for variable-rate debt ("choose-your-rate"), nonfinancial asset hedges, and aggregated forecasts. Key changes include allowing flexible switching between interest rate indexes for variable debt hedges, simplifying grouping of forecasted transactions (similar risk instead of shared risk), and resolving mismatches in complex dual-purpose hedges involving foreign currency debt. The goal is to reduce complexity, cost, and align financial reporting with economic reality. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2025-12, "Codifications Improvements" ("ASU 2025-12"). In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12 to make dozens of technical corrections, clarifications, and minor enhancements across various topics including simplifying diluted EPS calculations with losses, clarifying lease receivable disclosures, refining beneficial interest calculations, and streamlining treasury stock accounting. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2025
ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). The ASU required additional income tax disclosures around effective tax rates and cash income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 was effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The new disclosure requirements were adopted retrospectively by the Company in 2025, and the requirements around
effective tax rates and cash income taxes paid only apply to year-end. Refer to "Note 12 – Income Taxes" for further details.
ASU No. 2024-02, "Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements" ("ASU 2024-02") amended the Accounting Standard Codification ("Codification") by removing references to various concepts statements. These amendments simplified the Codification and further drew a distinction between authoritative and non-authoritative literature. The amendments were effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Refer to "Note 12 – Income Taxes" in this report for the applied accounting 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.
