Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
•In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09,
“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax
Disclosures.” The guidance enhances income tax
disclosure requirements by requiring public entities to
provide additional information in its tax rate reconciliation
and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. We
adopted this update on a prospective basis during the
current period. See Note 17, “Income Taxes,” for the
expanded disclosures.
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):
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” This
guidance will require disclosures about specific types of
expenses included in the expense captions presented on the
face of the income statement. The update is effective for
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with
early adoption permitted. Prospective application is
required and retrospective application is permitted. We are
currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on
our income statement disaggregation disclosures. We do
not believe this update will have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statement disclosures.
•In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06,
“Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software
(Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the
Accounting for Internal-Use Software.” The new guidance
removes references to various stages of a software
development project to align better with current software
development methods, such as agile programming. Under
the new standard, entities will start capitalizing eligible
costs when (1) management has authorized and committed
to funding the software project, and (2) it is probable that
the project will be completed and the software will be used
to perform the function intended. The update is effective
for interim and annual periods beginning after December
15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The guidance can
be applied on a prospective basis, a modified basis for in-
process projects, or a retrospective basis. We are
evaluating the impact this amended guidance may have 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.
