New Accounting Pronouncements – In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This ASU was effective for all entities that are subject to Topic 740 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance for the fiscal-year ended January 31, 2026. See Note 16 included in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements for more information on our income tax disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)”, which provides clarity in assessing an entity’s performance and prospects for future cash flows by disclosure of more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year-ended January 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, “Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities”, which establishes a unified accounting model for business entities when recognizing, measuring, and presenting government grants. The ASU categorizes grants as either related to an asset or related to income. A grant related to income is recognized in earnings in a systematic and rational manner over the periods in which the entity recognizes the related expenses. Presentation of the grant on the income statement can be either as a component of other income or as a deduction from the related expenses. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028. However, the ASU permits early adoption. The Company is still assessing the impact on its financial statements, including the presentation of its Section 45Z production tax credits.

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.
