Moleculin Biotech, Inc. New Standards Disclosure
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU clarifies the applicability of interim reporting guidance, the form and content of interim financial statements, and the related disclosure requirements. The amendments are intended to improve the organization and consistency of interim reporting guidance and do not change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce existing disclosure requirements. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance; however, the Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024 and January 2025, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 and ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments to the standards are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, but expects additional disclosures upon adoption.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This guidance is effective for the annual periods beginning after the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 as of January 1, 2025, and it has included the necessary disclosures in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There are no other effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, which if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying 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.
