Summary of guidance

Effects on financial statements

ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting

Issued March 2020

Provides optional expedients and exceptions to GAAP requirements for modifications on debt instruments, leases, derivatives, and other contracts, related to the expected market transition from LIBOR, and certain other floating rate benchmark indices, or collectively, IBORs, to alternative reference rates. The guidance generally considers contract modifications related to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date nor a reassessment of a previous accounting determination.

The Company has loan, security, and debt agreements that incorporate LIBOR as a reference interest rate. It is difficult to predict what effect, if any, the phase-out of LIBOR and the use of alternative benchmarks may have on our business or on the overall financial markets.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. The amendments in this update refine the scope for certain optional expedients and exceptions for contract modifications and hedge accounting to apply to derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by the discounting transition. Guidance is optional and may be elected over time, through December 31, 2022 using a prospective application on all eligible contract modifications.

The Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions through September 30, 2022, but will continue to evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions.

ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments- Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

Issued March 2022

Eliminates the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs and requires assessment on whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures about loan modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty and vintage disclosures which show the gross write-offs recorded in the current period by origination year. The ASU is effective in reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, under a prospective approach.

The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
