The ASU also provides for the inclusion of an income taxes paid disclosure by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. PSEG and PSE&G adopted this standard on December 31, 2025 without a material impact on their financial statements.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and Effective Date Clarification—ASU 2024-03

This ASU requires additional annual and interim disclosure about certain expenses in the notes to financial statements that provide disaggregated information (within a new tabular disclosure, the amounts of specified natural expenses included in each relevant expense caption: (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) amortization, and (e) depletion) about an entity’s expense captions that are presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations.

The ASU also requires certain expense related disclosures within the new tabular disclosure and disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. PSEG and PSE&G are currently analyzing the impact of this ASU on their future 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.
