ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under the new guidance, credit losses for certain types of financial instruments will be estimated based on expected losses. The new guidance also modifies the impairment models for available-for-sale debt securities and for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which changed the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods. This update was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. There were no other significant updates not already disclosed in the Company’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 to the recently issued accounting standards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Although there were several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, the Company does not believe any of those accounting pronouncements have had or will have a material impact on its financial position or operating results.
