Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10890, Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Selected Financial Data, and Supplementary Financial Information, to modernize and simplify Management’s Discussion and Analysis and certain financial disclosure requirements. These updates are part of the SEC’s broader disclosure effectiveness initiative and reflect a principles-based, registrant-specific approach to disclosures, intended to improve the content and simplify compliance for registrants. During 2021, we early adopted certain updates to section 301, Selected Financial Data, and 302, Supplementary Financial Information. As required, we will complete the adoption of the remaining amendments during 2022 and do not anticipate that the adoption of these amendments will have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes certain exceptions for investments, intraperiod allocations and interim calculations, and adds guidance to reduce complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 was effective for us on May 1, 2021. The accounting guidance for franchise taxes and foreign investments was adopted on a modified retrospective basis and all other applicable provisions were adopted on a prospective basis, as required by ASU 2019-12. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
