Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") which, among other things, provides for a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases. The IRA was effective January 1, 2023. The Company’s application of the statute did not have a material effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements, or its share repurchase program.

In November 2022, the FASB issued a new standard on the disclosure of supplier financing programs. The new standard requires qualitative and quantitative disclosure as to the nature and potential magnitude of such programs in addition to program activity and changes for the periods presented. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption and the impact of the adoption of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
