Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Subsequent to August 31, 2025, in September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes guidance for internal-use software costs. The amendments in this update improve the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, though early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt the guidance in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2029. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on its financial statements and does not expect the update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires public companies to disaggregate key expense categories such as inventory purchases, employee compensation and depreciation in their financial statements. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income- Expense Disaggregation Disclosures- Clarifying the Effective Date”, which amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt the guidance in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on its financial statements and expects the update to result in additional disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which requires greater disaggregation of income tax disclosures related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid and effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis although retrospective application is permitted. The Company expects to adopt the guidance in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on its financial statements and expects the update to result in additional disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance in this update is effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025. The enhanced disclosures for fiscal year ending August 31, 2025 are included in Note 13, Segment Information, to our consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this standard did not impact the identification or measurement of the Company’s reportable segments but enhanced the disclosure of segment expense information. These categories are consistent with the manner in which the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) evaluates performance and allocates resources.
