Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The guidance requires disclosure of significant reportable segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. The guidance also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual identified as the chief operating decision-maker and an explanation of how the chief operating decision-maker uses the reported measures of a segment’s profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The guidance does not change how an entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates those operating segments, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The guidance became effective for the Corporation’s annual period beginning January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2025. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on its annual disclosures in its consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024 and interim disclosures thereafter. It will not, however, impact the Corporation’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance requires annual disclosure of specific categories of information within the effective tax rate reconciliation, and income taxes paid and income tax expense disaggregated by jurisdiction.
