RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2021

The Company adopted and updated its accounting policy for the following accounting standards that have been applied to the Company's interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). The FASB issued ASU 2019-12 to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain technical exceptions and by clarifying and amending certain areas. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and as such the Company adopted effective January 1, 2021. There was no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as a result of adopting ASU 2019-12.

ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform ("ASU 2020-04"), as amended by ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Scope ("ASU 2021-01"). On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, which was subsequently amended by ASU 2021-01. The FASB issued these updates to ease the burden in accounting for the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 contain optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The Company adopted ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 effective January 1, 2021, and there was no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as a result of adopting this guidance.
