Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity" (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification and makes targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings-per-share (EPS) guidance. Entities can elect to adopt the new guidance through either a modified retrospective method of
transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures" (Topic 323): Accounting for Investment Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method."

The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements." The new guidance clarifies or improves disclosure and presentation requirements on a variety of topics in the codification. The amendments will align the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standard Codification with the SEC’s regulations.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, which is not expected to be material.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard led to enhanced segment reporting disclosures but did not impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. See Note 13, Segment Information in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for further detail.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes" (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in the ASU address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2023-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Final Rule No. 33-11275, "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors."

Based on our current accelerated filer status, certain elements of the rule would be effective for our fiscal year ending January 31, 2027, with the remaining disclosure requirements effective for our fiscal years ending January 31, 2028 and 2029. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying implementation of such rule, pending the resolution of certain challenges. The outcome of ongoing litigation is currently unknown. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of such rule on its consolidated financial statements and 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.
