Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810). This ASU provides that a reporting entity involved in a business combination effected primarily by the exchange of equity interests must consider the factors in ASC 805-10-55-12 through 55-15 to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer regardless of whether the legal acquiree is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The amendments in ASU 2025-03 must be applied prospectively to any business combination that occurs after the initial adoption date. ASU 2025-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-04, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which clarifies the guidance in both ASC 718 and ASC 606 on the accounting for share-based payment awards that are granted by an entity as consideration payable to its customer. The ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice and improve existing guidance, primarily by revising the definition of a “performance condition” and eliminating a forfeiture policy election for service conditions associated with share-based consideration payable to a customer. In addition, the ASU clarifies that the guidance in ASC 606 on the variable consideration constraint does not apply to share-based consideration payable to a customer “regardless of whether an award’s grant date has occurred” (as determined under ASC 718). ASU 2025-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2025 and 2024

 

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), which provides a practical expedient for measuring expected credit losses on current receivables and contract assets arising under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU allows entities to assume that the macroeconomic conditions existing at the balance sheet date will remain unchanged over the remaining life of those assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU simplifies the accounting for costs incurred in the development of internal-use software by removing the concept of multiple project stages. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits funding to the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software placed into service. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). This ASU clarifies the scope of derivative accounting for certain contracts and provides guidance on share-based, non-cash consideration received from a customer under Topic 606. The amendments expand a scope exception for contracts whose underlying is based on an entity’s own operations or activities, reducing the number of arrangements that qualify as derivatives. The ASU also clarifies the accounting for share-based consideration received from a customer. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11). The purpose of this ASU is to improve the guidance of Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by providing clarity on the current interim reporting requirements. This amendment also provides additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods. The amendments in this ASU also add to Topic 270 a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the reporting entity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all public companies for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

The Company reviewed all other significant newly-issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they either are not applicable to the Company’s operations or that no material effect is expected on its consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.

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.
