Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” ( “ASU 2023-09”), which requires disaggregated information on the effective rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 for public entities, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied prospectively, with the option to apply them retrospectively. The Company adopted this ASU for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 and applied the new disclosure requirements on a prospective basis. See Note 6 - Income Taxes for the additional disclosures required by ASU 2023-09.
[S] Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which requires 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 amendments are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and will be applicable for the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028 and subsequent interim periods. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied prospectively, with the option for retrospective application. The Company expects adoption of this ASU will result in additional disclosures in line with the requirements of ASU 2024-03.
Other recent authoritative guidance issued by the FASB (including technical corrections to the ASC), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) did not, or are not expected to, have a material impact on the Company’s 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.
