MESA LABORATORIES INC /CO/ New Standards Disclosure
Recently Adopted 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 No. 2023-07 is intended to provide financial statement users with more information about reportable segments, including more disaggregated expense information. We adopted ASU 2023-07 effective for our annual fiscal year 2025 reporting period, on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures and is reflected in Note 14. “Segment Data.”
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." ASU No. 2023-09, which enhances the transparency, effectiveness and comparability of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information related to income tax rate reconciliations and the jurisdictions in which income taxes are paid. The guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods years beginning after December 15, 2024 (our fiscal year 2026), with early adoption and prospective or retrospective application permitted. Other than presentation of additional disaggregated data in our income tax footnote disclosures for annual periods, we do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2023-09 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statement.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2024-03, "Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." ASU No. 2024-03 requires that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 (our fiscal year 2028 for annual periods) and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 (our fiscal year 2029 for interim periods), with early adoption and prospective or retrospective application permitted. We are currently assessing the effect the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.
We have reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and have concluded that, other than as described above, they are either not applicable to us or are not expected to have a significant impact on our 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.
