The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. This ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in the update and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this standard with our fiscal 2025 annual filing. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and the impact of adoption. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in this ASU are intended to enhance the transparency of income tax information by updating income tax disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company will adopt this standard with our fiscal 2026 annual filing. The Company is currently evaluating these new disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact.
