Recent Accounting and Reporting Developments

 

Accounting Changes

 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023‑09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023‑09”) which improves the transparency, effectiveness, and comparability of income tax disclosures and allows investors to better assess, in their capital allocation decisions, how an entity’s worldwide operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operation opportunities affect its income tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2023‑09 for its 2025 annual reporting and applied ASU 2023‑09 retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023‑06, “Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative” (“ASU 2023‑06”) which incorporates certain Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements into the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments will be applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulations S‑X or S‑K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. As the Company is currently subject to Regulations S‑X and S‑K, it does not expect a material impact to its consolidated financial statements or disclosures from adoption of this guidance.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024‑03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220‑40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024‑03”) which requires public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements. ASU 2024‑03 is required to be applied prospectively, and will be effective for the Company’s 2027 annual reporting and for interim periods beginning in 2028. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements, other than additional disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

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” (“ASU 2025‑05”) which provides a practical expedient permitting all entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2025‑05 will be adopted prospectively and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2026, including interim periods in 2026. The Company does not expect a material impact to its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows from adoption of this guidance.

 

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025‑11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements” (“ASU 2025‑11”) which improves the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifies when that guidance is applicable. Under ASU 2025‑11, an entity is subject to Topic 270 if it provides interim financial statements and notes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. ASU 2025‑11 also addresses the form and content of such financial statements, adds lists to Topic 270 of the interim disclosures required by all other Codification topics, and establishes a principle under which an entity must disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025‑11 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2028, including interim periods in 2028, and will be early adopted on a prospective basis by the Company on January 1, 2026. The Company does not expect a material impact to its consolidated financial statements or disclosures from adoption of this guidance.

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.
