Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The update primarily requires the Company to provide (i) further disaggregation for specific categories on the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as additional information about federal, state/local and foreign income taxes and (ii) annually disclose its income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated by jurisdiction. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis, and there was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this guidance. However, additional disclosures related to the Company’s income taxes have been disclosed (see note 5 - Income Taxes).
Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the "FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" which expands the segment reporting disclosures and primarily requires disclosures on (i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and are included within each reported measure of segment operating results, (ii) the total amount of any other items included in segment operating results which were not deemed to be significant expenses for separate disclosure, along with a qualitative description of the composition of these other items and (iii) CODM’s title and position and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The update also aligns interim segment reporting disclosure requirements with annual segment reporting disclosure requirements. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2024, on a retrospective basis, as required, and there was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of this guidance. However, additional disclosures related to the Company’s segment have been disclosed (see note 24 - Segment Information).
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Disaggregated Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" which provides guidance on additional disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The update is to be applied on a prospective basis, although optional retrospective application is permitted. While the update will require additional disclosures related to the Company’s expenses, it is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated operating results, financial condition or cash flows.
Internal-Use Software
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," which applies to costs incurred to develop or obtain software for internal use. The ASU amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods, such as agile programming. Under the new standard, entities will commence capitalizing eligible costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and can be applied on a prospective basis, a modified basis for in-process projects or on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on its consolidated 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.
