PACKAGING CORP OF AMERICA New Standards Disclosure
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2025, we adopted ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to the Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU provides for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The new guidance was applied retrospectively in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s related disclosure as reflected in Note 8, Income Taxes.

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.
