Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and consolidate the financial statements of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements
During the third quarter of 2023, we identified errors in Note 20 “Segment Reporting” in the summary of our financial results by segment tables in the previously filed 2022 and 2021 annual consolidated financial statements and unaudited quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements for each of the quarterly periods of 2022, 2021 and for the first two quarterly periods of 2023. The prior period errors impacted income from unconsolidated investments, net, segment net operating income and segment depreciation and amortization for the healthcare and corporate and other sectors. The errors identified did not impact the consolidated or condensed consolidated balance sheets, statement of operations, statements of changes in equity and redeemable equity instruments or the statements of cash flows in any prior period. We concluded that the errors are not material to each of the annual consolidated financial statements which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and our interim report on Form 10-Q for each of the quarterly periods in 2022, 2021 and for the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023. We have revised the summary of our financial results by segment in Note 20 “Segment Reporting” for the previous periods included in this filing on Form 10-K and will correct any prior period segment disclosures for these errors as they are presented in future periodic filings.
The following changes have been made to our financial results by segment tables:

Depreciation and amortization attributable to unconsolidated entities$(19,218)$9,475 $(9,743)$(20,061)$11,498 $(8,563)
Consolidation
We consolidate entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. In determining whether we have a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity, we consider whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether we are the primary beneficiary. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have both the power to direct the most significant activities impacting the economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits significant to the VIE. See additional information on our VIEs in Note 14 “Variable Interest Entities.”
For consolidated joint ventures, the non-controlling partner’s share of the assets, liabilities and operations of each joint venture is included in non-controlling interests in consolidated joint ventures and reported as equity of the Company on our consolidated balance sheets. The non-controlling partner’s interest is generally calculated as the joint venture partner’s ownership percentage. Certain of the joint ventures formed by the Company provide the joint venture partner a profits interest based on certain internal rate of return hurdles being achieved. Any profits interest due to the joint venture partner is reported as net gain (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated joint ventures on our consolidated statements of operations.
We apply the equity method of accounting if we have significant influence over an entity, typically when we hold 20 percent or more of the voting common stock (or equivalent) of an investee but do not have a controlling financial interest. In certain circumstances, such as with investments in limited liability companies or limited partnerships, we apply the equity method of accounting when we own as little as three to five percent. See Note 4 — “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities” for further information about our investments in partially owned entities.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period reported amounts have been reclassified to be consistent with the current presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on total assets, net income or equity attributable to common stockholders.
Fair Value Measurements
Valuation of Assets and Liabilities Carried at Fair Value
Our investments in real estate-related securities, commercial loans, an affiliated fund and derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value. We generally determine the fair value of these investments, other than our investment in an affiliated fund, by utilizing third-party pricing services and broker-dealer quotations on the basis of last available bid price. We determine the fair value of our investment in the affiliated fund using NAV as a practical expedient. Cost approximates fair value for all other assets and liabilities.
In determining the fair value of a particular investment in real estate-related securities, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price. The pricing service providers’ internal models for securities such as real estate-related securities generally consider the attributes applicable to a particular class of the security (e.g., credit rating or seniority), current market data, and estimated cash flows for each class and incorporate deal collateral performance such as prepayment speeds and default rates, as available.
Our commercial loan investments are unlikely to have a readily available market quotation. Thus, we determine the initial value based on the par value of the originated investment. Following the initial measurement, we will determine fair value by utilizing or reviewing certain of the following (i) market yield data, (ii) discounted cash flow modeling, (iii) collateral asset performance, (iv) local or macro real estate performance, (v) capital market conditions, (vi) debt yield or loan-to-value ratios, and (vii) borrower financial condition and performance. See Note 5 — “Investments in Commercial Loans” for additional information.
We use derivative financial instruments including an interest rate swap and interest rate caps (options) to manage our interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined by a third-party service provider using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.
The fair values of interest rate caps are determined by a third-party pricing service provider using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rise above the strike rate of the caps. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the cap are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments that have original maturity dates of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. We may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts. We mitigate our risk of loss by maintaining cash deposits with high credit-quality institutions and actively monitoring our counterparties to minimize credit risk exposure.
Restricted Cash
As of December 31, 2023, our restricted cash consists of subscriptions received in advance, an interest reserve that we are contractually required to maintain on deposit under the terms of our preferred membership interest in a limited liability company, amounts in escrow for taxes and insurance related to mortgages at certain properties and security deposits.
Investments in Real Estate
In accordance with the guidance for business combinations, we determine whether each acquisition qualifies as a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the acquisition is not a business, we account for the transaction as an asset acquisition. As of December 31, 2023, we have accounted for all of our property acquisitions as asset acquisitions.
Whether an acquisition is considered a business combination or asset acquisition, we recognize the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity. For transactions that are business combinations, we also evaluate the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. We expense acquisition-related costs associated with business combinations as they are incurred. We capitalize acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions.
When a transaction is determined to be an asset acquisition, we assess the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, leasing commissions and other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities) and allocate the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The cost of the acquisition is then allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. We assess relative fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates that we deem appropriate, as well as other available market information. We estimate future cash flows based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends and market and economic conditions.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. We also consider an allocation of purchase price to acquired intangibles, including acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including but not limited to the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants’ credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.
We record acquired above-market and below-market leases at their fair values (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid under each in-place lease and (2) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. When estimating carrying costs, we include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. When estimating costs to execute similar leases, we consider leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.
Intangible assets and intangible liabilities are recorded gross on our consolidated balance sheets. Intangible liabilities are presented as a component of other liabilities. The amortization of acquired above-market and below-market leases is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenue on our consolidated statements of operations. The amortization of in-place leases is a component of depreciation and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations.
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of our properties and any acquisition-related costs, along with any subsequent improvements to such properties. Our investments in real estate are stated at cost and are generally depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
DescriptionDepreciable Life
Building
30 - 40 years
Building and land improvements
1 - 10 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
1 - 7 years
Lease intangibles
Over lease term(1)
Leasehold improvementsShorter of lease term or economic life of improvements
(1)Multifamily and self-storage properties use a half-life for the average length of the leases to approximate the average remaining length of leases. Student housing properties use the remaining life of the leases for the current school year.
Significant improvements to properties are capitalized. When assets are sold or retired, their costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts with the resulting gains or losses reflected in net income or loss for the period. Repairs and maintenance are expensed to operations as incurred and are included in rental property operating expense on our consolidated statements of operations.
We review our real estate properties for indicators of impairment each quarter or when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates a property’s value may be impaired. We assess recoverability based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated from the operation and eventual disposition of our properties over the period we expect to hold the properties. If the carrying amount of the real estate investment is no longer recoverable and exceeds the fair value of our investment, we recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value, or fair value less costs to sell if classified as held-for-sale. If we change our strategy or market conditions otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized and such loss could be material to our results. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized $6.2 million of impairment charges on a held and used property. Refer to Note 3 — “Investments in Real Estate, net” for additional details of the impairment. We did not record any impairment losses for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Properties Held-For-Sale
We classify the assets related to real estate investments as held-for-sale when a sale is probable to occur within one year. We consider a sale to be probable when a binding contract has been executed, the buyer has posted a non-refundable deposit and there are limited contingencies to closing. We record held-for-sale real estate investments at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, less estimated closing costs. At the time the real estate investment is classified as held-for-sale, no additional depreciation will be recorded for the held-for-sale investment. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized $1.7 million of impairment charges related to held-for-sale real estate investments. Refer to Note 3 — “Investments in Real Estate, net” for additional details of the impairment. No impairments related to held-for-sale real estate investments occurred during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we did not have any real estate investments classified as held-for-sale.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
We account for our investments in unconsolidated entities under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, we record our initial investment in an unconsolidated entity at cost and subsequently adjust the cost for our share of the unconsolidated entity's income or loss and cash contributions and distributions each period. We evaluate the carrying amount of our investment in an unconsolidated real estate entity for potential indicators of impairment if the carrying amount of our investment exceeds its fair value. We record an impairment charge when we determine an impairment is other-than-temporary. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, we consider whether we have the ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying amount is fully recovered. The evaluation of an investment in an unconsolidated entity for potential impairment can require us to exercise significant judgment. We did not record any impairment losses on our investments in unconsolidated entities for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.
Distributions received from equity method investments are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows as either operating or investing activities based on the cumulative earnings approach. Under the cumulative earnings approach, we compare distributions received to our cumulative equity method earnings since inception. Any distributions received up to the amount of cumulative equity earnings are considered a return on investment and classified in operating activities. Any excess distributions are considered a return of investment and classified in investing activities. The income or loss from equity method investments is included in income (loss) from unconsolidated entities, net in our consolidated statements of operations.
See additional information on investments in unconsolidated entities at Note 4 — “Investments in Unconsolidated Entities as well as Note 14 “Variable Interest Entities” for our investments in unconsolidated entities that are VIEs.
Investments in Commercial Loans
We have originated floating rate mezzanine loans and elected the fair value option. At our election, the investments in commercial loans are stated at fair value and were initially valued at the face amount of the loan funding. Subsequently, the commercial loans are valued at least quarterly by an independent third-party valuation firm with additional oversight being performed by the Adviser’s internal valuation department. The value is based on market factors, such as market interest rates and spreads for comparable loans, the performance of the underlying collateral (such as the loan-to-value ratio and the cash flow of the underlying collateral) and the credit quality of the borrower. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of unrealized gain (loss) on investments in commercial loans on our consolidated statements of operations.
In the event of a partial or whole sale of the commercial loan that qualifies for sale accounting under GAAP, we derecognize the corresponding asset, and fees paid as part of the partial or whole sale are recognized on our consolidated statements of operations.
Investments in Real Estate-Related Securities
We invest in debt and equity securities of real estate companies. We have elected the fair market value option for accounting for investments in debt securities. We record changes in fair value of debt securities, interest income on debt securities, and bond premium and discount amortization as income from real estate-related securities in our consolidated statements of operations.
We record equity securities with readily determinable market values at fair value. We record dividend income on equity securities when declared. We record changes in fair value of equity securities and dividend income as income from real estate-related securities in our consolidated statements of operations.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We use derivative financial instruments such as interest rate caps and swaps to manage risks from increases in interest rates. We record all derivatives at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets. At the inception of a derivative contract, we determine whether the instrument will be part of a qualifying hedge accounting relationship or whether we will account for the contract as a trading instrument. We have elected not to apply hedge accounting to all derivative contracts. Changes in the fair value of our derivatives are recorded as a component of net gain on derivative instruments, net in our consolidated statements of operations. Derivative financial instruments are recorded as a component of other assets on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. We have elected to classify the purchase and sale of interest rate derivative instruments as financing activities on our consolidated statements of cash flows in the same category as the cash flow from the instrument for which the interest rate derivative instruments provide an economic hedge. Cash receipts or payments that are attributed to contractual interest earned or incurred on derivative instruments are classified as cash flows from operating activities on our consolidated statements of cash flows.
Redeemable Equity Instruments
Certain shares of our Class N common stock are classified as Class N redeemable common stock on our consolidated balance sheets because the holder of these shares, Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”), has the contractual right to redeem the shares under certain circumstances as described in Note 11 — “Class N Redeemable Common Stock.”
Our Class E units in INREIT OP are classified as redeemable non-controlling interest in INREIT OP on our consolidated balance sheets because the holder of these units, Invesco REIT Special Limited Partner L.L.C. (the “Special Limited Partner”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Invesco, has the contractual right to redeem the units under certain circumstances as described in Note 12 — “Equity and Redeemable Non-controlling Interest.”
We report our Class N redeemable common stock and redeemable non-controlling interest in INREIT OP on our consolidated balance sheets at redemption value. The redemption value is determined as of our balance sheet date based on our net asset value (“NAV”) per share of Class N common stock or per unit of Class E units, as applicable. NAV is equivalent to GAAP stockholders’ equity adjusted for the redemption value of our redeemable common stock; certain organization and offering costs and certain operating expenses; unrealized real estate appreciation; accumulated depreciation and amortization; impairment of investments in real estate; straight-line rent receivable and other assets. For purposes of determining our NAV, the fair value of our investments in real estate is determined based on third party valuations prepared by licensed appraisers in accordance with standard industry practice. We will limit any adjustment to the carrying amount of the redeemable equity instruments so as to not reduce the carrying amount below the initial amount reported as Class N redeemable common stock or redeemable non-controlling interest in INREIT OP, as applicable.
Deferred Financing Costs
Direct costs associated with entering into our revolving credit facility are recorded as other assets on our consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of the agreement. Direct costs associated with entering into our mortgage notes and financing obligation are recorded as an offset to the related liability and are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of the mortgage notes and financing obligation.
Revenue Recognition
Rental Revenue
Rental revenue consists of fixed contractual base rent arising from tenant leases at our properties under operating leases. Revenue under operating leases that are deemed probable of collection is recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the related leases. For leases that have fixed and measurable rent escalations, the difference between such rental income earned and the cash rent due under the provisions of the lease is recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination. Our estimate of collectability includes, but is not limited to, factors such as the tenant’s payment history, financial condition, industry and geographic area. These estimates could differ materially from actual results.
We recognize rental revenue on our leases based on a number of factors, including the initial determination that the contract is or contains a lease. Generally, all of our contracts are, or contain, leases, and therefore revenue is recognized on the lease commencement date when the leased asset has been made available for use by the lessee. At the commencement of a new lease, including new leases that arise from amendments, we assess the terms and conditions of the lease to determine the proper lease classification.
A lease is classified as an operating lease if none of the following criteria are met: (i) ownership transfers to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lessee has a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised, (iii) the lease term is for a major part of the economic life of the leased property, (iv) the present value of the future lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the leased property, and (v) the leased property is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no future alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term. If one or more of these criteria are met, the lease will generally be classified as a sales-type lease, unless the lease contains a residual value guarantee from a third party other than the lessee, in which case it would be classified as a direct financing lease under certain circumstances.
Our contracts may contain nonlease components (e.g., charges for management fees, common area maintenance and reimbursement of third-party maintenance expenses) in addition to lease components (i.e., monthly rental charges). Services related to nonlease components are provided over the same period of time as, and billed in the same manner as, monthly rental charges. We do not segregate the lease components from the nonlease components when accounting for operating leases. Since the lease component is the predominant component under each of these leases, combined revenues from both the lease and nonlease components are reported as rental revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Income from Commercial Loans
Income from commercial loans consist of income from interest earned and recognized based upon the principal amount outstanding and the contracted interest rate along with origination fees, which are reported as income from commercial loans on our consolidated statements of operations. We recognize interest income from the commercial loans when earned and deemed collectible, or until the loan becomes past due based on the terms of the loan agreement. Any related origination fees or costs on real estate debt for which we have elected the fair value option are recognized immediately in earnings.
The accrual of interest income on a commercial loan is discontinued when in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due (“nonaccrual commercial loan”), unless the loan is well-secured and is in the process of collection. Interest income received after a loan becomes past due or impaired is used to reduce the outstanding loan principal balance and is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received until the loan is returned to accrual status. When a delinquent loan previously placed on nonaccrual status has cured, meaning all delinquent principal and interest have been remitted by the borrower, the loan is placed back on accrual status. Alternately, loans that have been individually impaired may be placed back on accrual status if restructured and after the loan is considered re-performing. A restructured loan is considered re-performing when the loan has been current for at least 12 months. As of December 31, 2023, we did not have a commercial loan in nonaccrual status.
Income (Loss) from Investment in Affiliated Fund, Net
Our ownership interests in an affiliated fund is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. We have chosen to make a fair value election with respect to this investment. As a result, income or losses recognized from the investment are recorded in income (loss) from investment in affiliated fund, net on our consolidated statements of operations. Income (loss) from investment in affiliated fund, net is based on changes in the fair value of our investment, which is determined using the affiliated fund’s NAV as a practical expedient. See Note 13 — “Fair Value Measurements” and Note 16 — “Related Party Transactions” for further information about our investment in affiliated fund.
Income Taxes
We qualified to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Internal Revenue Code”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ending December 31, 2020. To maintain our REIT qualification, we must meet a number of organizational and operating requirements, including that we are generally required to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders annually. We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on our taxable income to the extent we annually distribute all of our net taxable income (determined without regard to our net capital gain and dividends-paid deduction) to stockholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
We may elect to treat certain of our corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). In general, a TRS may perform additional services for our tenants and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business. A TRS is subject to federal, state and local corporate income tax, as applicable. Revenues related to self-storage unrelated business taxable income (“UBTI”) and revenue from our investments in operating companies are recorded in the TRS along with any corresponding expenses. We account for applicable income taxes by utilizing the asset and liability method. As such, we record deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences resulting from the difference between the carrying value of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if we believe all or some portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized.
For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, we recorded a net tax expense of $0.3 million, $0.1 million and approximately $48,000, respectively, located within other expense on our consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2023 we have a deferred tax asset of approximately $24,000, which is offset by a full valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2022, we recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $3,000. Deferred tax assets and valuation allowances are recorded within other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2023, our tax years 2020 through 2023 remain subject to examination by the United States tax authorities.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
We calculate basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including redeemable common stock. All classes of common stock are allocated net earnings (loss) at the same rate per share and receive the same gross distribution per share. We calculate diluted EPS considering the effect of dilutive instruments, such as unvested restrictive stock awards, by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding (unless their effect is antidilutive) for the period.
As of December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the effects of dilutive instruments on basic and diluted EPS were not material to our consolidated financial statements.
Share-Based Compensation
Under the terms of our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, our independent directors are eligible to receive awards of time-vested common stock as part of their compensation for services as directors. In addition, we may compensate the officers and employees of our Adviser and its affiliates with share-based awards under the terms of the agreement between us and the Adviser (the “Advisory Agreement”); however, as of December 31, 2023, we have not compensated any officers or employees of our Adviser and its affiliates with share-based awards. See Note 12 — “Equity and Redeemable Non-controlling Interest” for additional information regarding share-based compensation.
Share-based compensation arrangements may include options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other share-based awards. We recognize compensation expense related to share-based awards to our independent directors in our consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements on an annual and interim basis. The amendments require, among other items, enhanced disclosures around significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the CODM's title and position. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments must be applied on a retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on our disclosures.
