McEwen Inc. New Standards Disclosure
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). Amended guidance requires more detailed disclosures about the nature of significant expenses included in the Statements of Operations. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early and retrospective adoption are permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commissions Rules:
Improvement to income tax disclosure: In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including disaggregated information within the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information regarding income taxes paid that meet certain quantitative thresholds. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on a prospective basis for the year ended December 31, 2025 and has included the required disclosures in Note 19. As the standard impacts presentation and disclosure only, its adoption did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial position.
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.
