MIND TECHNOLOGY, INC New Standards Disclosure
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), to enhance the disclosures public entities provide regarding significant segment expenses so that investors can better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. ASU 2023-07 is effective for our annual periods beginning February 1, 2024 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning February 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard only impacted our disclosures. See Note 14- "Segment Reporting" for additional details.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 seeks to improve transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. The updated guidance is effective for the Company on February 1, 2025. The Company has revised its disclosures regarding income taxes (See Note 11-"Income Taxes") to comply with these new requirements and has adopted the standard prospectively.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"), to enhance the disclosures public entities provide regarding specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period so that investors can better understand an entity’s overall performance, including its cost structure, and assess potential future cash flows. ASU 2024-03 is effective for our annual periods beginning February 1, 2027 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning February 1, 2028. The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on the disclosures 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.
