Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification Improvements to address suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") and to make other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that clarify, correct errors in or make other improvements to a variety of topics that are intended to make it easier to understand and apply. The amendments to this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow - Scope Improvements. The update provides clarifications intended to improve the consistency and usability of interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive listing of required interim disclosures and a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The amendments do not change the underlying objectives of interim reporting but are designed to enhance clarity in application. The amendments to this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The amendments in this update establish the accounting for a government grant received by a business entity, including guidance for (1) a grant related to an asset and (2) a grant related to income. A grant related to an asset is a government grant, or part of a government grant, that is conditioned on the purchase, construction, or acquisition of an asset (for example, a long-lived asset or inventory). A grant related to income is a government grant, or part of a government grant, other than a grant related to an asset (for example, a grant that reimburses a business entity for operating expenses). The amendments in this update require that a government grant received by a business entity should not be recognized until it is probable that (a) a business entity will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and (b) the grant will be received, and the business entity meets the recognition guidance for a grant related to
an asset or a grant related to income. The amendments to this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028 and interim periods within those reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statements.

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 amendment simplifies the capitalization guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that

the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. The amendments to this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption of this update is permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04 – Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which improves the relevance and consistency in application of the induced conversion guidance in Subtopic 470-20, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Specifically, the guidance is intended to clarify how to determine whether a settlement of convertible debt (particularly cash convertible instruments) at terms that differ from the original conversion terms should be accounted for under the induced conversion or extinguishment guidance. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company will adopt this guidance for its fiscal year commencing January 1, 2026 for any debt conversions, as they occur.

In addition, a qualitative description of remaining amounts in relevant expense captions that have not separately been disaggregated will be required on an interim and annual basis. On an annual basis, disclosure of an entity’s definition of selling expenses and the amount of selling expenses is required. The amendments to this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027.
