5. New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to enhance the disclosures public entities provide regarding significant segment expenses so that investors can better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. ASU 2023-07 will become effective February 1, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, to address timing on recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. This update requires all organizations to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 became effective February 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
