Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," which requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, this amendment requires certain disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdiction in which income taxes paid meet a quantitative threshold. The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. We adopted ASU 2023-09 for the year ended December 31, 2025 and applied the new disclosure requirements prospectively for the current annual period. Refer to Note 11, "Income Taxes," for additional information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative," which adds interim and annual disclosure requirements to the US GAAP codification at the request of the SEC. The new guidance is intended to align GAAP requirements with those of the SEC and to facilitate the application of GAAP for all entities. These disclosure requirements are currently included in either SEC Regulation S-X or SEC Regulation S-K. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. Early adoption is prohibited and the amendments should be applied prospectively. If the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K by June 30, 2027, the amendments will be removed from the US GAAP codification and will not be effective.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220-40)," which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this amendment and the impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

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.
