Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new standard updates disclosure requirements for Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 primarily by requiring additional information in the income tax rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. Recursion adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of 2025. Recursion has adopted the standard using the prospective approach and included the required disclosures in our notes to the financial statements for income taxes (See Note 12, “Income Tax”). The adoption of the amendments in ASU 2023-09 impacted the Company's disclosures in the
notes to the consolidated financial statements and did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
