2. New Accounting Standards:
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to improve the disclosures related to public business entities reportable segments. This new guidance requires entities to provide information regarding significant segment expenses, especially those segment expenses that are regularly reported to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer), or CODM. The guidance also require public entities to disclose the nature, type and amounts of other segment items by reportable segment. Public business entities will also have to report all annual disclosures about segments profits or losses that are required by ASC 280 on an interim basis, including the significant segment expenses and other segment items. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The disclosure will be implemented as required for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.
In December 2023, FASB issued guidance to improve disclosures related to incomes taxes. This new guidance requires public business entities to disaggregate information on the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid to provide greater transparency. Public business entities will be required to provide additional information in specified categories related to effective tax rate reconciliation in tabular form and provide income taxes paid by jurisdictions, with further disaggregation needed if amounts exceed 5% of the total. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The disclosure will be implemented as required for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.
In October 2023, FASB issued guidance to amend either presentation or disclosure requirements related to fourteen subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, that are currently in the SEC Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. The new guidance was issued in response to the SEC’s ruling on disclosure simplification. For entities subject to existing SEC disclosure requirements, the effective date of each amendment of the topics will be the date that the SEC removes the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or
Regulation S-K. The guidance must be applied prospectively, with no early adoption permitted for entities subject to those existing SEC disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance as it pertains to the fourteen subtopics that would impact the business and will apply prospectively once in effect.
In August 2023, the FASB issued guidance for entities that meet the definition of a joint venture or a corporate joint venture, to adopt a new basis of accounting upon the formation of the joint venture. The new guidance requires the initial measurement of contributed net assets and liabilities at fair value on the formation date, recognition of goodwill for the difference between the fair value of the joint venture’s equity and net assets, and disclosures about the nature and financial impact of the transaction. The new guidance requires prospective application and is effective for all joint ventures that are formed on or after January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. Joint ventures that formed before January 1, 2025 may elect to retrospectively apply the new guidance. The Company will apply the guidance to any new joint ventures formed after the effective date.
