Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Principles of Consolidation
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MiMedx Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Reclassifications
Reclassifications
Increases in cash resulting from changes in income taxes of $0 and $9.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were separately presented in previously issued consolidated statements of cash flows. These amounts are reflected as part of changes in other assets in the consolidated statements of cash flows included in these consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported consolidated statements of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, estimates of loss for contingent liabilities, estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts, estimate of fair value of share-based payments, the extent of probable achievement of performance conditions in share-based payment awards, estimates of returns and allowances, and valuation of deferred tax assets.
Segment Reporting
Segment Reporting
The application of GAAP requires the use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) organizes segments within the Company for which separate financial information is available regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company has concluded that its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is its CODM. The Company reassesses the existence of operating segments when facts and circumstances suggest that there may have been a change in the way that the Company is managed. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company assessed that it operated as two operating and reportable segments: Wound & Surgical and Regenerative Medicine. During the fourth quarter of 2023, upon the conclusion that the Regenerative Medicine segment met all the requirements to be classified as a discontinued operation, the Company reassessed its operating segments, concluding that the CODM assesses performance and resources as one reportable segment.
Cash and Cash Equivalents / Market Concentrations and Credit Risk
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash held at various banks. The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase and money market mutual funds to be cash equivalents.
Market Concentrations and Credit Risk
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with U.S.-based financial institutions. The U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides insurance coverage for deposits up to $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $81.3 million and $65.2 million, respectively, in excess of the insured amounts in five depository institutions.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent amounts due from customers for which revenue has been recognized. Generally, the Company does not require collateral or any other security to support its receivables.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on the Company’s current expectations for credit losses, which is generally informed by historical trends. The Company’s policy to reserve for potential bad debts based on the age of the individual receivable as well as customer-specific qualitative factors, such as bankruptcy proceedings. The Company manages credit risk by routinely performing credit checks on customers prior to sales. Individual receivables are written-off after all reasonable efforts to collect the funds have been made. Actual write-offs may differ from the amounts reserved.
Inventory
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs of inventory sold are recognized using the first–in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventory is tracked through raw material, work-in-process, and finished goods stages as the product progresses through various production steps and stocking locations. Labor and overhead costs are absorbed through the various production processes up to when the work order closes. Historical yields and normal capacities are utilized in the calculation of production overhead rates. Write-downs are utilized to account for slow-moving inventory as well as inventory no longer needed due to diminished demand or regulatory action.
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, principally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives and the remaining lease term.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company records obligations associated with the legal requirement to retire long-lived assets when an estimate for the cost of retirement can reasonably be made. The Company reviews legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from contractual obligations or the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. If it is determined that a legal obligation exists, regardless of whether the obligation is conditional on a future event, the fair value of the liability for an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The fair value is calculated as the estimate of the expected cash outflow to satisfy the legal obligation discounted to present value using the Company’s then-prevailing incremental borrowing rate. At such point in time, an asset and liability are recorded for the amount of the expected liability. The asset amount is depreciated, straight-line, over the life of the underlying asset, while the liability is accreted to the amount of the expected outflow through selling, general and administrative expense using the effective interest method. Subsequent revisions to estimates for future cash flows related to the asset retirement obligations are recorded as equal increases or decreases to the retirement asset and liability.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets (property, equipment, right of use, and intangible assets with finite lives) whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related assets may be less than their carrying amounts. When a situation arises which results in a conclusion that it is more likely than not that an asset is not recoverable, the Company estimates cash flows expected to be derived from the continuing use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the sum of those cash flows, not discounted to present value, does not exceed the net book value of the asset, the Company estimates the fair value of the asset. Impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the net book value exceeds the fair value of the asset.
Impairment reviews are based on an estimated future cash flow approach that requires significant judgment with respect to future revenue and expense growth rates, selection of appropriate discount rate (as applicable), asset groupings, and other assumptions and estimates. The Company uses estimates that are consistent with its business plans and a market participant view of the assets being evaluated. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at least annually on October 1 and more frequently whenever events or substantive changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. In performing the goodwill impairment test, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine the existence of impairment. If the qualitative factors indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company proceeds to a quantitative test to measure the existence and amount, if any, of goodwill impairment. The Company may also choose to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test.
In performing the quantitative test, impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its assessed fair value.
If the Company concludes that the way in which it is being managed has changed and results in a change to its concluded reporting units, the goodwill assigned to the original reporting unit is allocated to the new reporting units based on the relative fair value of the new reporting units.
The Company determines the fair value of reporting units using the income and market approaches, as applicable. Under the income approach, the fair value of a reporting unit is the present value of its future cash flows as viewed from the lens of a hypothetical market participant in an orderly transaction. These future cash flows are derived from expectations of revenue, expenses, tax deductions and credits, working capital flows, capital expenditures, and other projected sources and uses of cash, as applicable. Value indications are developed by discounting expected cash flows to their present value using a discount rate commensurate with the risks associated with the reporting unit subject to testing. Under the market approach, the Company uses market multiples derived from various comparable companies based on measures salient to investors in those companies.
On June 20, 2023, the Company announced the disbanding of its Regenerative Medicine business unit and the suspension of its Knee Osteoarthritis clinical trial program. As a result of this event, the Company evaluated goodwill associated with the Regenerative Medicine reporting unit for potential impairment. The Company estimated fair value for the reporting unit using the income approach; specifically, a discounted cash flow method. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by an amount that exceeded its goodwill balance. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment loss for the full amount of the goodwill ascribed to the Regenerative Medicine reporting unit.
Patent Costs
Patent Costs
The Company incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent applications. The Company capitalizes such costs to be amortized over the expected life of the patent to the extent that an economic benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or an alternative future use is available to the Company.
Leases
Leases
The Company determines if a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Leases provide the Company with the right to control an underlying asset for a contractual term, subject to certain renewal and other rights, in exchange for a series of stipulated cash flows. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
Lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company calculates the present value of lease payments by discounting the lease payments using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a collateralized or secured borrowing over a term equivalent to that of the lease. Lease payments that vary according to an index or rate are measured using the index or rate at lease inception. The lease term and applicable payments include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. Options to renew or terminate a lease are included in the lease term to the extent that such provisions
are reasonably certain to be exercised. This determination is reassessed as new information arises and is accounted for prospectively. As an accounting policy election, the Company does not capitalize leases having initial terms of 12 months or fewer. The Company has made an accounting policy election not to separate lease components from non-lease components in the event that the agreement contains both.
Operating lease right of use assets and the related liabilities are included in right of use asset, other current liabilities, and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. Lease expense associated with operating leases is recognized, straight-line, over the lease term. The Company does not recognize interest expense from operating lease liabilities.
Finance lease right of use assets and the related liabilities are included in property and equipment, net, other current liabilities, and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease right of use assets are amortized, straight-line, over the lease term as depreciation expense. Interest expense is recognized using the effective interest method on finance lease liabilities as part of interest expense, net.
Treasury Stock
Treasury Stock
Shares repurchased by the Company are recorded as treasury stock at the cost to acquire such shares. Subsequent issuances of shares held in treasury are assumed to be released on a FIFO basis.
Contingencies
Contingencies
The Company is or has been subject to various patent challenges, product liability claims, government investigations, former employee matters, and other legal proceedings. See Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, for discussion of material matters. Legal fees and other expenses related to litigation are expensed as incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expenses or investigation, restatement and related expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, depending on the nature of the matter. The Company records an accrual for resolution costs and other contingencies in the consolidated financial statements when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Subsequent revisions to the Company’s accrual are made as new information emerges and are accounted for prospectively. The Company discloses all ongoing legal matters for which a loss is reasonably possible, regardless of whether an estimate can be reasonably determined.
Due to the fact that legal proceedings and other contingencies are inherently unpredictable, the Company’s estimates of the probability and amount of any such liabilities involve significant judgment regarding future events. The actual costs of resolving a claim may be substantially different from the amount of reserve the Company recorded. The Company records a receivable from its insurance carriers only when the resolution of any dispute has been reached and realization of the amounts equal to the potential claim for recovery is considered probable. Any recovery of an amount in excess of the related recorded contingent loss will be recognized only when all contingencies relating to recovery have been resolved.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
The Company sells its products primarily to individual customers and independent distributors (collectively referred to as “customers”). Customers obtain and use products either through ship and bill sales or consignment arrangements. Under ship and bill arrangements, the Company retains possession of the product until the customer submits an order. Upon approval of the sales order, the Company ships product to the customer and invoices them for the product sold. Under consignment arrangements, the customer takes possession of the product, but the Company retains title until the implantation or application of the Company’s product to the end user.
The Company recognizes revenue as performance obligations are fulfilled, which generally occurs upon the shipment of product to the customers for ship and bill orders or upon implantation for consignment sales.
Revenue is recognized based on the consideration the Company expects to receive from the sale. This consists of the gross selling price of the product, less any discounts, rebates or other amounts paid to customers, fees paid to Group Purchasing Organizations (“GPOs”), and returns (collectively, “deductions” or “sales deductions”). Gross selling price is a standard set by the Company for all customers unless a contract governing the sale provides for a specified price. Sales deductions are specified in individual contracts with customers. The Company estimates the total sales deductions which a specific customer will achieve over the relevant term and applies the reduction to sales as they are made throughout the period.
Sales deductions owed to customers and other parties are accrued and recorded in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company acts as the principal in all of its customer arrangements and records revenue on a gross basis. Shipping is considered immaterial in the context of the overall customer arrangement, and damages or loss of goods in transit are rare. Therefore, shipping is not deemed a separately recognized performance obligation and the Company has elected to treat shipping costs as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the product. The Company maintains a returns policy that allows its customers to return product that is damaged or non-conforming, ordered in error, or due to a recall. The estimate of the provision for returns is based upon historical experience with actual returns. The Company’s payment terms for customers are typically 30 to 60 days from receipt of title of the goods.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes all costs directly related to bringing the Company’s products to their final selling destination. Amounts include direct and indirect costs to manufacture products including raw materials, personnel costs and direct overhead expenses necessary to convert collected tissues into finished goods, product testing costs, quality assurance costs, facility costs associated with the Company’s manufacturing and warehouse facilities, including depreciation, freight charges, costs to operate equipment and other shipping and handling costs for products shipped to customers.
The Company obtains raw material in the form of human placenta donations from participating mothers who give birth via scheduled Caesarean section.
Research and Development Costs
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs consist of direct and indirect costs associated with the development of the Company’s technologies. Historically, these expenses largely represented costs associated with our clinical trials, but now largely represent costs associated with new product development and pilot production. These costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising expense
Advertising expense
Advertising expense consists primarily of print media promotional materials. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes
Income tax provision, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid. The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous states.
Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, which will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes these assets are more likely than not to be realized. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, management considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, results of recent operations, and changes in tax laws. In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and incorporates assumptions about the amount of future state and federal pretax operating income adjusted for items that do not have tax consequences. The assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, management considers three years of cumulative income (loss) exclusive of items that will not recur, such as discontinued operations. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the tax provision (benefit) in the period that includes the enactment date.
The calculation of income tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations both for U.S. federal income tax purposes and across numerous state jurisdictions. ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the technical
merits. The Company records unrecognized tax benefits within other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and adjusts these liabilities when management’s judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Because of the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from management’s current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to the deferred tax asset or income tax expense in the period in which new information is available.
The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position, and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the consolidated statements of operations. Accrued interest and penalties, if any, are included within the related deferred tax liability line in the consolidated balance sheets and recorded as a component of income tax expense.
Share-based Compensation
Share-based Compensation
The Company grants share-based awards to employees and members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Awards to employees and the Board are generally made annually. Grants are issued outside of the annual cadence for certain new hires, promotions, and other events.
The amount of expense to be recognized is determined by the fair value of the award using inputs available as of the grant date. The fair value of equity incentive awards that are not subject to a market condition is the value of common stock on the grant date. For equity incentive awards that are subject to a market condition, the fair value of common stock on the grant date is adjusted to reflect the value of the market condition, generally using a path-dependent pricing model, such as a Monte Carlo simulation.
For awards with service-based vesting conditions only, the Company recognizes share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis through the vesting date of the last tranche of the award. For awards which are subject to a condition other than a service condition, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense using the graded-vesting method, treating each tranche as if it were a separately-granted award and recognizing expense through the vesting date of each individual tranche. In each scenario, the Company recognizes share-based compensation expense based upon the probability that the award will ultimately vest. The Company recognizes the cumulative effect of changes in the probability outcomes in the period in which the changes occur.
For awards subject to a market condition, the resolution of the market condition is not subsequently considered in expense recognition. Consequently, the Company could recognize expense for awards that do not ultimately vest.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated as net income (loss) from continuing operations available to common stockholders divided by weighted average common shares outstanding for the applicable period. Net income (loss) from continuing operations available to common stockholders is calculated by adjusting net income (loss) for dividends on the Company’s previously outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”). This amount is divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.
Weighted average common shares outstanding is calculated as shares of the Company outstanding adjusted for the portion of the period for which they are outstanding. Unvested non-option share awards are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding until they have vested. Unexercised stock options are excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding until they are exercised. Shares issuable pursuant to the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) are included for the minimum number of shares issuable beginning at the point in time that all contingencies for share issuance are resolved.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share adjusts basic net income (loss) per common share for convertible securities, options, equity incentive awards, and other share-based payment awards which have yet to vest and vest only upon the satisfaction of a service condition. Equity incentive awards and options that are subject to a performance or market condition are included only if the performance or market condition would be satisfied if the end of the applicable period were the end of the performance period. In any case, these adjustments are reflected in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per common share to the extent that they reduce basic net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share.
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share from discontinued operations are evaluated using the same denominator as basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share from continued operations.
The Company uses the if-converted method to calculate the dilutive effect of the Series B Preferred Stock and other convertible securities to the extent they are outstanding. The if-converted method assumes that convertible securities are converted at the later of the issuance date and the beginning of the period. If the hypothetical conversion of convertible securities, and the consequential avoidance of any accumulated preferred dividends, would decrease basic net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share, these effects are incorporated in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share, adjusted for the portion of the period the securities were outstanding.
The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive effect of options, non-option share awards, and certain other share-based payments. The treasury stock method assumes that the proceeds from exercise are used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price during the period, increasing the denominator for the net effect of shares issued upon exercise less hypothetical shares repurchased.
Shares issuable pursuant to the ESPP are included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share to the extent that such shares would be issued based on the share price at the conclusion of the period, excluding the shares already reflected in the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
The respective carrying value of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature and type of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, and certain other financial assets and liabilities.
The Company measures certain non-financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These non-recurring valuations include evaluating assets such as long-lived assets, and non-amortizing intangible assets for impairment, allocating value to assets in an acquired asset group, and accounting for business combinations. The Company uses the fair value measurement framework to value these assets and reports these fair values in the periods in which they are recorded or written down.
Fair value financial instruments are recorded in accordance with the fair value measurement framework. The fair value measurement framework includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair values in their broad levels. These levels from highest to lowest priority are as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs or valuation techniques that are used when little or no market data is available.
The determination of fair value and the assessment of a measurement’s placement within the hierarchy require judgment. Level 3 valuations often involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Level 3 valuations may require the use of various valuation methodologies which incorporate unobservable inputs, management estimates, and assumptions. Management’s assumptions could vary depending on the asset or liability valued and the valuation method used. Such assumptions could include: estimates of prices, earnings, costs, actions of market participants, market factors, or the weighting of various valuation methods. The Company may also engage external advisors to assist it in determining fair value, as appropriate.
Although the Company believes that the recorded fair value of its financial instruments is appropriate, these fair values may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.
Government Assistance
Government Assistance
The Company receives benefits from various government entities for various purposes from time to time. With respect to any benefits that are not dependent on income (which are subject to the policy described under Income Taxes, above), the Company recognizes such benefits at the point in time in which all barriers to receive the assistance have been overcome in an amount equal to the expected benefit. Benefits are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the line item to which the associated benefit relates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” ASU 2020-04 provides temporary expedients to accounting guidance for certain contract modifications and hedging arrangements to ease financial reporting burdens as a result of market transitions from certain reference rates, including the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).
In June 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (the “Amendment No. 2”) to the loan agreement, dated as of June 30, 2020, by and among the Company, Hayfin Services, LLP (“Hayfin”), an affiliate of Hayfin Capital Management LLP, and certain other parties, (as amended, the “Hayfin Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which the reference rate used to determine the interest rate was changed from the LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Because the only terms of Amendment No. 2 that affected the Company’s contractual cash flows were related to the changes in the reference rate, the Company adopted the optional guidance prescribed by Topic 848 to this transaction. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 and its application to the Second Amendment did not materially impact the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280)”. The standard seeks to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and address requests from investors for additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740)”, which requires additional disclosures for income tax rate reconciliations, income taxes paid, and certain other tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Adoption is required for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
All other ASUs issued and not yet effective as of December 31, 2023, and through the date of this report, were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s current and future financial position or results of operations.
