Accounting Standards Adopted in 2025
Effective for the annual period ended December 31, 2025, PPG adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09 “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740)”. This ASU updated current income tax disclosure requirements to require disclosures of specific categories of information within the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. PPG elected to apply ASU 2023-09 prospectively. Adoption of this ASU resulted in additional disclosure, but did not impact PPG’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Years
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”. The ASU requires the disclosure of additional information related to certain costs and expenses, including amounts of inventory purchases, employee compensation, and depreciation and amortization included in each income statement line item. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and our definition of selling expenses. This ASU will be effective for the
annual period ending December 31, 2027. Adoption of this ASU will result in additional disclosure, but will not impact PPG’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
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 ASU is intended to modernize the recognition and disclosure framework for internal-use software costs, removing the previous “development stage” model to align the accounting rules with how software is developed today. This ASU will be effective for PPG beginning January 1, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

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.
