RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the financial statements.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Adopted

 

The FASB also issued ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting Topic 280 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This update requires expanded annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company believes the adoption of ASU 2023-07 will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation, requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. This update is required to be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.

 

In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (as clarified by ASU 2025-01). This guidance focuses on the disaggregation of income statement expenses. This update requires entities to provide more detailed disclosures about the components of significant expense categories, enhancing the transparency and decision-usefulness of financial statements. The objective is to provide users with a clearer understanding of the nature and variability of expenses reported in the income statement. The standard is effective for annual periods of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods in years beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2024-03 on our financial statement disclosures. While we anticipate that the adoption of this standard will require additional disclosures, we do not expect it to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
