Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Codification Improvements: In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2025-12 “Codification Improvements.” These amendments update the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for a broad range of Topics arising from technical corrections, unintended application of the Codification, clarifications, and other minor improvements. The amendments in the ASU, which addresses 33 issues, affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this ASU in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. The Company is assessing ASU 2025-12 and its impact on its accounting and disclosures.
Interim Reporting: In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11 “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” This ASU does not change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. The amendments in this ASU (1) clarify that the guidance in Topic 270 applies to all entities that provide interim financial statements and notes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); (2) create a comprehensive list in FASB Accounting Standards Codification® Topic 270 of interim disclosures that are required in interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP; (3) incorporate a disclosure principle, which is modeled after previous Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidance, that requires entities to disclose events and changes that occur after the end of the most recent fiscal year that have a material impact on the entity; and (4) improve guidance about information included in and the format of interim financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for pubic business entities for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and for entities other than public business entities the amendments are effective for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The amendments can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is assessing ASU 2025-11 and its impact on its accounting and disclosures.
Financial Instruments: In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05 “Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets.” The amendments provide (1) all entities with a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the assets and (2) entities other than public business entities with an accounting policy election to consider collection activity after the balance sheet date when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. This ASU is effective for fiscal years including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance.

Specifically, they will be required to:
• Disclose the amounts of (a) purchases of inventory; (b) employee compensation; (c) depreciation; (d) intangible asset amortization; and (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities (or other amounts of depletion expense) included in each relevant expense caption.
• Include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current GAAP in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements.
• Disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively.
• Disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses.
In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01 clarifying the effective date for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027.

The amendments also require that all entities disclose on an annual basis the following information about income taxes paid: (1) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and (2) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received.) This guidance is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis although retrospective application is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025 on a retrospective basis and it did not have a material impact on its accounting and disclosures.
