Schedule of New Accounting Pronouncements |
Accounting Standards Recently Issued but Not Yet Adopted
Standard | Guidance | Timing and Financial Statement Impact
Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures Issued December 2023 | Requires greater disaggregation of rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information, as well as other changes intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. | Effective beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted, although we did not early adopt. Adoption will require enhancements to our income tax disclosures but is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial reporting, or on our operational processes, controls and governance in support of the new guidance.
Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options: Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments Issued November 2024 | Improves the relevance and consistency in application of the induced conversion guidance for (a) convertible debt instruments with cash conversion features and (b) debt instruments that are not currently convertible. | Effective January 1, 2026. Early adoption is permitted, although we do not plan to early adopt. Adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial reporting as the new guidance aligns with our recent accounting for the repurchases of certain of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2028. Additionally, adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our operational processes, controls and governance in support of the new guidance.
Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses Issued November 2024 | Requires disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement expenses on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Income, and further disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. | Effective beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2027, and effective for interim reporting periods beginning in 2028. Early adoption is permitted, although we do not plan to early adopt. Adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial reporting, or on our operational processes, controls and governance in support of the new guidance.
Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software Issued September 2025 | Amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of internal-use software costs, including removing all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages to align better with current software development methods, e.g., agile. | Effective January 1, 2028.

Adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial reporting, or on our operational processes, controls and governance in support of the new guidance.
