MESABI TRUST New Standards Disclosure
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The ASU is intended to simplify the application of Topic 326 for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from
transactions accounted for under Topic 606 by providing all entities with a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change over the remaining life of the asset. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The Trust does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Trust’s financial statements.
The Trust has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and interpretations that are effective for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, and has determined they do not have a material effect on the Trust’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Trust has also evaluated accounting standards and interpretations that were issued during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, that will be effective for subsequent fiscal years and does not believe they will have a material effect on the Trust’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows when adopted.

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.
