Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” This ASU requires disclosure of additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes in the rate reconciliation table and requires entities to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. The ASU also requires entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance makes several other changes to the disclosure requirements.

ASU 2023-09 was effective for the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2025, which primarily resulted in expanded disclosures in the rate reconciliation table and regarding certain reconciling items. In accordance with the transition provisions of ASU 2023-09, we applied the guidance prospectively; as a result, prior-period comparative disclosures have not been restated and continue to reflect the presentation requirements in effect at that time. See Note 10 for additional information. As the requirements of this ASU relate to disclosure only, the adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” This ASU requires public business entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses, including but not limited to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, in a tabular format within the notes to their financial statements, as well as provide additional disclosures related to certain other specified expenses. The ASU may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

There were no other accounting pronouncements recently issued by the FASB that are considered significant or relevant to the Company.

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.
