Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that enhances the transparency about the use of supplier finance programs. Under the new guidance, companies that use a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services are required to disclose information about those programs to allow users of financial statements to understand the nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. HP adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, except for the disclosure on roll forward information which was adopted for its annual period ending October 31, 2025, in line with the effective adoption dates prescribed by the FASB. See Note 7, “Supplementary Financial Information,” for additional disclosure related to HP’s supplier finance programs.
In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance that updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance on an annual and interim basis. HP adopted this guidance for its annual period ending October 31, 2025. While the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the new guidance resulted in increased disclosures on reportable segments in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements on an annual and interim basis. HP is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending October 31, 2028 and all interim periods thereafter on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. HP is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance that enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding annual disclosure requirements related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. HP is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending October 31, 2026, which will result in increased disclosures in the Notes to 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.
