Adopted

​

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”).  This provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.  We adopted this ASU as required for the year ended December 31, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption requires us to provide additional disclosures related to our income taxes, but otherwise it does not materially impact our financial statements.
