2.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Prior to December 31, 2022, we were classified as an EGC and elected to use the extended transition period for complying with certain new or revised financial accounting standards from the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act. However, beginning on December 31, 2022, we are no longer an EGC and are now unable to delay adoption of these new or revised accounting standards or take advantage of reduced corporate governance disclosures.

 

Adopted

 

Leases

 

Effective for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company adopted the updated guidance for leases and elected to utilize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for the year of adoption, if necessary. Accordingly, the Company’s reporting for the comparative periods prior to adoption continue to be presented in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with previous lease accounting guidance. The Company also elected to apply all practical expedients applicable to the Company in the updated guidance for transition for leases in effect at adoption, including using hindsight to determine the lease term of existing leases, the option to not reassess whether an existing contract is a lease or contains a lease, and whether the lease is an operating or finance lease. The adoption of the updated guidance resulted in the Company recognizing a right-of-use asset of $1,637 as part of other assets, a lease liability of $1,837 as part of accrued expenses and other liabilities, and an elimination of the $200 deferred rent liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings was zero. The adoption of the updated guidance did not affect the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

 

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

 

In December 2022, the Company adopted amended guidance from the FASB that applies a new credit loss model (current expected credit losses or “CECL”) for determining credit-related impairments for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and requires an entity to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure or pool of exposures. The expected credit losses, and subsequent adjustments to such losses, are recorded through an allowance account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, with the net carrying value of the financial asset presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at the amount expected to be collected. The updated guidance also amends the previous other-than-temporary impairment model for available-for-sale fixed income securities by requiring the recognition of impairments relating to credit losses through an allowance account and limits the amount of credit loss to the difference between a security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value. In addition, the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position will no longer impact the determination of whether a credit loss exists.

 

The Company adopted the updated guidance for the year ended December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance resulted in an allowance for expected credit losses of $425 for premiums and agents' balances receivable. Based on the results of the receivable analyses and management’s review of our available-for-sale fixed income securities, it was determined that no allowance was required for reinsurance recoverables or available-for-sale fixed income securities at this time.

 

Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes

In December 2022, the Company adopted amended guidance from the FASB relating to accounting for income taxes. The modifications primarily remove or amend several exceptions contained in existing guidance to simplify income tax matters. The adoption of this guidance did not materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

Not Yet Adopted

 

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance related to improving disclosures for reportable segments primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). This guidance also requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements, which is expected to result in enhanced disclosures.

 

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance related to improving income tax disclosures. This guidance requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements, which is expected to result in enhanced disclosures.
