PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORP New Standards Disclosure
New Accounting Standards
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requires the disclosure of significant segment expenses that are included in segment profit or loss and how the segment measures are used for decision-making. The ASU is effective for Phibro’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, including retrospective disclosure for all prior periods presented, and interim periods subsequent to June 30, 2025. See “Note 16 — Business Segments.”
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, enhances income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The ASU outlines specific categories to be provided in the rate reconciliation and requires additional information for those reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The ASU requires disaggregated disclosure of federal, state and foreign income taxes paid, including disaggregation by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). The ASU also requires disaggregated disclosure of federal, state and foreign income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes. The enhanced disclosures will be applied on a prospective basis and are required for Phibro’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. We are evaluating the impact of the additional income tax-related disclosures.
ASU 2024-03, (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and ASU 2025-01, Clarifying the Effective Date, requires disclosure, in the notes to the financial statements, of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption, as well as a qualitative description of amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. ASU 2024-03 also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The ASU will be effective for Phibro’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2028 and for interim periods thereafter, and it can be applied on a prospective basis or on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this standard on our footnote disclosures.
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.
