Pronouncements Implemented
In August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-05, "Business Combinations - Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement." The amendments require that newly formed joint ventures measure the net assets and liabilities contributed at fair value. Subsequent measurement is in accordance with the requirements for acquirers of a business in Sections 805-10-35, 805-20-35, and 805-30-35, and other generally accepted accounting principles. The amendments are effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025, but companies may elect to apply the amendments retrospectively to joint ventures formed prior to January 1, 2025, if it has sufficient information. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period in which financial statements have not yet been issued (or made available for issuance), either prospectively or retrospectively. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)." The amendments require that entities on an annual basis disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation, provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, and disclose specific information about income taxes paid. The amendments eliminate previously required disclosures around changes in unrecognized tax benefits and cumulative amounts of certain temporary differences. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We adopted this ASU in 2025. Refer to Note 20, "Income Taxes."
Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)." The amendments require disclosure of amounts, in the notes to financial statements, of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. Specified expenses, gains and losses that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP are also required to be included in the disaggregated income statement expense line item disclosure. The amendments also require disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and the entity's definition of selling expenses. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. ASU No. 2025-01 on the same topic issued in January 2025 further clarifies the effective date for interim periods. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We are evaluating the impact of this ASU on our disclosures.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-03, "Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810) - Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity." The amendments require an entity involved in an acquisition transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests to consider certain additional factors not required by current U.S. GAAP when the acquiree is a Variable Interest Entity that meets the definition of a business. The amendments are intended to enhance the comparability across entities engaging in acquisition transactions effected primarily by exchanging equity interest when the legal acquiree meets the definition of a business. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments require prospective application to any acquisition transaction that occurs after the initial application date. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our disclosures and we will evaluate the impact of this ASU if such transaction occurs.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)."The amendments provide a practical expedient for all entities 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. Under the update, an entity who elects the practical expedient assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate expected credit losses. The update also includes an accounting policy election which is not relevant to Flowserve as a public business entity. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim
reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)." The amendments affect criteria for capitalization of internal-use software costs, removing references to project stages and adding guidance on how an entity should evaluate whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities prior to capitalizing development costs, referred to the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”. The updates are intended to provide accounting guidance that is neutral to different software development methods used. The amendments also specify that the disclosures in Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment –Overall, are required for all capitalized internal-use software costs rather than the disclosure requirements in ASC 350-30-50-1 through 50-3, and relocated website development costs guidance to Subtopic 350-40, superseding Subtopic 350-50. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or in a modified transition approach. We are evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-07, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." The amendments refine the derivative scope in Topic 815 to exclude non-exchange-traded contracts with underlyings that are based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties from derivative accounting. The update also include a scope clarification that requires an entity to apply the guidance in Topic 606 to a revenue contract that includes share-based noncash consideration from a customer. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively or in a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We are evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-08, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans." The amendments expand the population of acquired financial assets subject to the gross-up approach in Topic 326 to include loans (excluding credit cards) acquired without credit deterioration and deemed seasoned, including those acquired in a business combination. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments require prospective application to loans that are acquired on or after the initial application date. We do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our disclosures and we will evaluate the impact of this ASU if such transaction occurs.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements." The amendments affect certain aspects of the guidance in Topic 815 to more closely align hedge accounting with risk management activities. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments require prospective application for all hedging relationships, and an entity may elect to adopt the amendments for hedging relationships that exist as of the date of adoption. We do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our disclosures and we will evaluate the impact of this ASU on hedging relationships that exist on the date of adoption or are entered into after the date of adoption.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, "Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities." The amendments establish accounting guidance for government grants received by a business entity, requiring that a government grant received should not be recognized until it is probable that a business entity will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received. The update also provides specific recognition guidance for grants related to an asset and grants related to income. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, or through a modified retrospective or modified prospective approach. We do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our disclosures and we will evaluate the impact of this ASU if any government grants are received.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, "Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements." The amendments include improvements to the navigability of Topic 270 and clarification on when
guidance is applicable. These updates are not intended change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. Additionally, the update adds a disclosure principle which requires entities issuing condensed statements to disclose events occurring since the end of the most recent fiscal year that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively to any or all prior period presented. We do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, "Codification Improvements." The amendments in this ASU represent changes to clarify, correct errors, or make minor improvements to the Codification. Therefore, the updates are not expected to result in a significant change in practice. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and an entity may elect the transition method on an issue-by-issue basis, with the exception of Issue 4 in the ASU (regarding Topic 260, Earnings Per Share) which must be applied retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the ASU, and we do not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material impact on the Company or our 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.
