There has been no new accounting guidance adopted in 2024. See Note 17 to the Financial Statements for discussion of significant accounting guidance pending adoption as of June 30, 2024.

Other Matters

On March 6, 2024, the SEC adopted final rules that require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. The final rules require registrants to disclose, among other things, material climate-related risks, activities to mitigate such risks and information about oversight by the registrant’s board of directors and management’s role in managing material climate-related risks. The final rule also requires registrants to provide information related to any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the registrant’s business, results of operations, or financial condition. A majority of the reporting requirements are applicable to the fiscal year beginning in 2025, with the addition of assurance reporting for greenhouse gas emissions starting in 2029 for large accelerated filers. Litigation challenging the new rule was filed by multiple parties in multiple jurisdictions, which have been consolidated and assigned to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC announced that it is voluntarily staying the implementation of the climate disclosure regulations while the U.S. Court of Appeals considers the litigation. The Registrants are currently evaluating the impact of the final rules on their respective consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
