TAO Synergies Inc. New Standards Disclosure
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis, and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative threshold to determine its reportable segments. The new disclosure requirements are also applicable to entities that account and report as a single operating segment entity. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted the guidance for the annual reporting period ended December 31, 2024. There was no impact on the Company’s reportable segments identified and additional required disclosures have been included in Note 10, Segment Reporting in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2023, the FASB also issued ASU 2023 - 08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350 - 60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets, which requires public entities to measure in - scope cryptocurrency assets at fair value in the statement of financial position, and to recognize gains and losses from changes in the fair value of cryptocurrency in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023 - 08 will also require entities to provide certain interim and annual disclosures with respect to their cryptocurrency holdings. The standard is effective for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with a cumulative - effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which we adopt the guidance. The Company adopted ASU 2023 - 08 on January 1, 2025. Because the Company did not acquire cryptocurrency assets until June 2025, there was no cumulative - effect adjustment upon adoption; however, the guidance changed the Company’s accounting for such assets on a prospective basis.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as expanded disclosures on income taxes paid by jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 in its annual consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220), which requires disclosure in the notes to consolidated financial statements about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements will be applied
prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact related to the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its financial statement disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025 - 12, Codification Improvements to address suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification and to make other incremental improvements to U.S. GAAP. The update represents changes to the Codification that (1) clarify, (2) correct errors, or (3) make minor improvements. The amendments make the Codification easier to understand and apply. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. On January 1, 2024, the Company early adopted this standard. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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.
