New in FY2023

For example, we have manufacturing facilities in certain jurisdictions that are authorized to operate under preferential duty and/or tariff programs that provide for reduced tariffs and/or eased import and export regulations and are subject to compliance with the terms of such programs, which have become stricter.

New in FY2023

Failure to comply with the terms of such programs could increase our manufacturing costs and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

New in FY2023

As a result of these dynamics, we cannot predict the

ability to deliver products to our customers.

New in FY2023

We rely on our information technology systems for critical operations and face numerous and evolving cybersecurity threats and techniques used to disrupt operations and gain unauthorized access to these systems.

New in FY2023

These threats may arise from diverse threat actors such as state-sponsored organizations and opportunistic hackers and hacktivists, as well as through diverse attack vectors, including, but not limited to, malware, social engineering/phishing, credential harvesting, ransomware, malfeasance by insiders, human or technological error and other increasingly sophisticated attacks.

New in FY2023

Cyberattacks continue to expand and evolve, making it difficult to detect and prevent such threats from impacting the Company.

New in FY2023

In addition, the rise of artificial intelligence and machine learning has led to more sophisticated and deceptive attacks.

New in FY2023

Attackers can manipulate systems in new ways and more easily perform functions at scale.

New in FY2023

As a result, we may be unable to detect, investigate, remediate, or recover from future attacks or incidents, or avoid a material adverse impact to our business.

New in FY2023

There can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management program and processes, including our policies, controls or procedures, will be fully complied with or effective in protecting our information technology systems.

New in FY2023

Finally, we cannot guarantee that any costs and liabilities incurred in relation to an attack or incident will be covered by our existing insurance policies or that applicable insurance will be available to us in the future on economically reasonable terms or at all.

New in FY2023

third-party business partners.

New in FY2023

New in FY2023

However, the Company borrowed under the U.S.

New in FY2023

Commercial Paper Program throughout much of 2023, and the Company may make additional borrowings under any of its debt instruments from time to time.

New in FY2023

As of December 31, 2023, less than 1% of the Company’s outstanding borrowings were subject to floating interest rates.

New in FY2023

To the extent that interest rates related to this floating rate debt increase further and the Company borrows under any of these floating interest rate instruments in the future, interest expense and interest payments would increase.

New in FY2023

For example, the Company reached an agreement in August 2023 with the U.S. government related to an investigation of alleged violations by the Company of the civil False Claims Act.

New in FY2023

Although the Company did not admit to any liability under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay the U.S. government a settlement amount, ending the government’s investigation and releasing the Company from further liability for the issues under investigation.

New in FY2023

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework, known as Pillar Two, provides guidance for a global minimum tax.

New in FY2023

This guidance lays out a common approach for adopting the global minimum tax and enacting local legislation codifying the provisions that all 142 countries in the Inclusive Framework agreed to by consensus.

New in FY2023

The EU member states have agreed to adopt these rules in two stages with the first component effective on January 1, 2024, while the second component will be effective January 1, 2025.

New in FY2023

Non-EU

New in FY2023

countries have enacted or are expected to enact legislation on a similar timeline.

New in FY2023

Certain countries in which we operate have already enacted legislation to adopt the Pillar Two framework, while several other countries are expected to also implement similar legislation with varying effective dates in the future.

New in FY2023

When and how this framework is adopted or enacted by the various countries in which we do business will increase tax complexity and may increase uncertainty and adversely affect our provision for income taxes in the U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions.

New in FY2023

manufacture and/or sell our products.

New in FY2023

There have been various new laws around the world that have been passed and will require additional ESG-related disclosure.

New in FY2023

For example, in Europe, the EU finalized the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (“CSRD”), which introduces more prescriptive sustainability reporting requirements for EU companies as well as certain non-EU companies, and will apply to all in-scope companies by January 1, 2028.

New in FY2023

In the United States, the SEC has proposed climate-related disclosure rules that have not yet been enacted as of the date of this report, and certain states have begun to pass their own ESG-related laws.

New in FY2023

For example, on October 7, 2023, the governor of California signed and enacted into law two climate-related disclosure bills (_SB-253, Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act_ and _SB-261, Greenhouse Gases: Climate-Related Financial Risk_), which will require compliance as early as 2026.

Dropped from FY2022

During much of 2022, COVID-19 outbreaks in China resulted in local or regional government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions, which impacted the ability of several of our operations and manufacturing facilities to operate in the ordinary course.

Dropped from FY2022

As of December 31, 2022, there continue to be isolated COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions of the world, particularly in China.

Dropped from FY2022

There can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material and adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in the future.

Dropped from FY2022

In addition, recent inflationary pressures have been exacerbated by decreased availability of, and increased prices for, freight and logistics, including air, sea and ground freight.

Dropped from FY2022

Accordingly, any future delays, disruptions, and supply and pricing risks could affect our ability to meet customer demand for our products or our profitability from selling those products, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Dropped from FY2022

Cybersecurity threats and techniques used to disrupt operations and gain unauthorized access to our information technology systems, including, but not limited to, malware, phishing, credential harvesting, ransomware and other increasingly sophisticated attacks, continue to expand and evolve globally, making it difficult to detect and prevent such threats from impacting the Company.

Dropped from FY2022

We generally obtain assurances from those parties that they have systems and processes in place to protect our data, and where applicable, that they will take steps to protect our data; nonetheless, those partners may also be subject to data intrusion or a cyberattack.

Dropped from FY2022

If general economic and capital market conditions deteriorate significantly, it could impact the Company’s ability to access the capital markets.

Dropped from FY2022

As of December 31, 2022, approximately $640 million, or 14%, of the Company’s outstanding borrowings were subject to floating interest rates, primarily from borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program.

Dropped from FY2022

Consequently, the Company currently expects the floating interest rates related to its U.S. Commercial Paper Program (as well as its Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan, to the extent either are drawn upon in the future) to continue to increase in the first quarter of 2023 and potentially beyond, which is expected to result in increased interest expense in 2023 as compared to 2022.

Dropped from FY2022

For example, in August 2018, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General, requesting documents from certain of the Company’s Military and Aerospace businesses pertaining to certain products that are purchased or used by the U.S. government.

Dropped from FY2022

In connection with this investigation, during the third quarter of 2022, in a meeting with representatives of the U.S. government, it was alleged that the Company likely violated various provisions of federal law, including violations under the civil False Claims Act, as discussed more fully in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Dropped from FY2022

which could result in fines, penalties or adjustment of costs and prices under the contracts.

Dropped from FY2022

outside the U.S. We cannot provide assurance that the patents that we hold or may obtain will provide meaningful protection against our competitors.

Dropped from FY2022

For example, as disclosed in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company was named as one of several defendants in four separate lawsuits filed in the State of Indiana relating to a manufacturing site in Franklin, Indiana where the Company has been conducting an environmental clean-up effort under the direction of the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

Dropped from FY2022

All the costs incurred by the Company relating to these lawsuits as well as all costs associated with the clean-up effort at the manufacturing site have been reimbursed by the former owner pursuant to an indemnification agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition of the manufacturing site as part of a larger acquisition that led to the establishment of the Company’s business in 1987.

Dropped from FY2022

punitive damages and/or modifications to our production processes as well as subject us to reputational harm, any of which could adversely impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Net sales were $12,623.0 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $10,876.3 for the year ended December 31, 2021, which represented an increase of 16% in U.S. dollars, 19% in constant currencies and 15% organically (excluding both currency and acquisition impacts) [removed: over] [added: compared to] the prior year.

Rewritten

From [removed: a] [added: an end] market standpoint, the increase in net sales was driven by robust organic growth across most end markets, including the automotive, [removed: informational technology and data communications,] [added: IT datacom,] industrial, broadband communications and commercial aerospace markets, moderate organic growth in the [removed: military,] [added: defense,] mobile networks and mobile devices markets, and contributions from the Company’s acquisition program.

Pillar Two Framework

New in FY2023

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework, known as Pillar Two, provides guidance for a global minimum tax.

New in FY2023

This guidance lays out a common approach for adopting the global minimum tax and enacting local legislation codifying the provisions that all 142 countries in the Inclusive Framework agreed to by consensus.

New in FY2023

The European Union (“EU”) member states have agreed to adopt these rules in two stages with the first component effective on January 1, 2024, while the second component will be effective January 1, 2025.

New in FY2023

Non-EU countries have enacted or are expected to enact legislation on a similar timeline.

New in FY2023

Certain countries in which we operate have already enacted legislation to adopt the Pillar Two framework, while several other countries are expected to also implement similar legislation with varying effective dates in the future.

New in FY2023

When and how this framework is adopted or enacted by the various countries in which we do business will increase tax complexity and may increase uncertainty and adversely affect our provision for income taxes in the U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions.

New in FY2023

The Company has done a preliminary review of currently enacted legislation and does not expect the initial implementation to materially impact future results.

New in FY2023

However, the Company will continue to evaluate the potential impact of Pillar Two on the Company and its future results, as additional countries adopt legislation and issue individual guidance on their enacted legislation.

2023 Compared to 2022

New in FY2023

The decrease in net sales in 2023 was driven by a sales decline in the Communications Solutions segment, partially offset by growth in the Harsh Environment Solutions and Interconnect and Sensor Systems segments, as described below.

New in FY2023

Net sales to the commercial aerospace market increased approximately $117.9, primarily due to increased broad-based demand across all aircraft applications, in particular larger passenger planes.

New in FY2023

Net sales to the IT datacom market decreased approximately $362.8, as we experienced moderations across a broad array of applications including networking equipment, cloud storage, transmission, consumer electronics and servers, partially offset by strong growth in artificial intelligence-related applications.

New in FY2023

Net sales to the mobile networks market decreased approximately $163.9, driven by broad-based moderations in demand from mobile network operators and wireless equipment manufacturers, partially offset by contributions from acquisitions.

New in FY2023

Net sales to the broadband communications market decreased approximately $46.4, driven by moderations in demand from broadband service operators.

New in FY2023

The decrease in foreign net sales in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven by sales declines in Asia.

New in FY2023

The increase in Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2023 was primarily driven by the effect of acquisitions, which currently have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales compared to the Company average.

New in FY2023

Operating income was $2,559.6, or 20.4% of net sales, in 2023, compared to $2,585.8, or 20.5% of net sales, in 2022.

New in FY2023

Operating income in 2023 included acquisition-related expenses of $34.6, comprised primarily of external transaction costs, as well as the amortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from three of the acquisitions that closed in 2023.

New in FY2023

Operating income in 2022 included acquisition-related expenses of $21.5,

New in FY2023

comprised primarily of the amortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from two acquisitions that closed in 2022, along with external transaction costs.

New in FY2023

While Adjusted Operating Income decreased modestly from 2022, Adjusted Operating Margin remained flat in 2023 relative to 2022, as the benefit of pricing actions and strong operational performance were offset by the operating leverage on the lower sales volumes, along with the negative impact on operating margin related to acquisitions that are currently operating below the average operating margin of the Company.

New in FY2023

The decrease in operating margin for the Communications Solutions segment for 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven by operating leverage on the lower sales volumes, partially offset by the benefit of pricing actions and strong operational performance.

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business, Operations, Financial Condition, Liquidity and Results of Operations

Dropped from FY2022

Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our offices and manufacturing facilities around the world, as well as the facilities of our suppliers, customers and our customers’ contract manufacturers.

Dropped from FY2022

These disruptions have included, and may continue to include, government regulations that inhibit our ability to operate certain of our facilities in the ordinary course, travel restrictions, supplier constraints, supply chain interruptions, logistics challenges and limitations, labor disruptions and reduced demand from certain customers.

Dropped from FY2022

During much of 2022, COVID-19 outbreaks in China resulted in local or regional government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions, which impacted the ability of several of our operations and manufacturing facilities to operate in the ordinary course.

Dropped from FY2022

As of December 31, 2022, there continue to be isolated COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions of the world, particularly in China, but these outbreaks have not had a significant impact on our operations.

Dropped from FY2022

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in 2023 and beyond remains uncertain and unpredictable.

2021 Compared to 2020

Dropped from FY2022

The increase in net sales in 2021 was driven by robust growth across all three reportable business segments, as described below.

Dropped from FY2022

This strong sales growth in 2021 also reflected a recovery in certain markets from the more negative impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020.

Dropped from FY2022

This sales growth was partially offset by a decline in the commercial aerospace market, which continued to be negatively impacted by the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and aircraft production.

Dropped from FY2022

Net sales to the information technology and data communications market increased (approximately $482.7), driven primarily by continued strong sales growth to web service providers and broad-based market demand for server, storage and networking related products as customers worked to support higher demand for increased bandwidth.

Dropped from FY2022

Net sales to the mobile networks market increased (approximately $60.5), driven by a recovery in demand from mobile networks equipment manufacturers and mobile operators, which was primarily driven by increased demand for products used in 5G network build-outs and contributions from acquisitions, offset in part by reductions of sales to certain customers in China that were added to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s “Entity List”.

Dropped from FY2022

Net sales to the commercial aerospace market decreased (approximately $26.6) primarily due to the continued significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and aircraft production during that period.

Dropped from FY2022

The sales growth in 2021 was driven by strong organic growth across several end markets, including the information technology and data communications, industrial, and automotive markets, moderate organic growth in the mobile networks, mobile devices, and military markets, and contributions from the Company’s acquisition program.

The increase in foreign net sales in 2021 compared to 2020 was driven by strong growth in both Europe and Asia.

Dropped from FY2022

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2021 was driven primarily by higher sales during the year, relative to 2020 which was more negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, slightly offset by the impact of the MTS Sensors business, acquired in 2021, which has higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales compared to the average of the Company.

Operating income in 2021 included acquisition-related expenses of $70.4, comprised primarily of transaction, severance, restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the MTS acquisition in the second quarter of 2021, along with external transaction costs and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the Halo acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Dropped from FY2022

Operating income in 2020 included acquisition-related expenses of $11.5, comprised primarily of external transaction costs related to acquisitions that were announced or closed.

Dropped from FY2022

The increase in Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin in 2021 relative to 2020 was driven by all three segments, and in particular, by normal operating leverage on the higher sales volumes combined with the benefit of a lower cost impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 2020, partially offset by the impact of the more challenging commodity and supply chain environment experienced in 2021, along with the impact of the Company’s 2021 acquisitions.

Rewritten

| | ● | _Expand global presence_ - The Company is strategically expanding and shifting its global manufacturing, engineering, sales and service operations to better serve its existing customer base, penetrate developing markets and establish new customer relationships. As the Company’s global customers have grown their international operations to access developing world markets and lower manufacturing costs, the Company is continuing to expand and shift its international footprint in order to provide real-time capabilities to these customers. The majority of the Company’s international operations have broad capabilities, including new product development. [added: The Company is also able to take advantage of the lower manufacturing costs in some regions, and has established low-cost manufacturing and assembly facilities around the world.] |

Rewritten

| | ● | _Control costs_ - The Company recognizes the importance in today’s global marketplace of maintaining a competitive cost structure. Innovation, product quality and performance, and comprehensive customer service are not mutually exclusive with controlling costs. Controlling costs is part of a mindset. It is having the discipline to invest in programs that have a good return, maintaining a cost structure as flexible as possible to respond to changes in the marketplace, working with suppliers and vendors in a fair but prudent way to ensure a reasonable cost for materials and services and creating a mindset where managers manage the Company’s assets as if they were their own. This mindset was particularly important in [removed: 2021 and 2022,] [added: recent years,] as supply chain challenges [removed: and] [added: arose, followed by] inflationary pressures [removed: accelerated.] [added: and logistical challenges that persisted into 2023.] |

| | ● | _Pursue strategic acquisitions and investments_ - The Company believes that the industry in which it operates is highly fragmented and continues to provide significant opportunities for strategic acquisitions. As a result, we continue to pursue acquisitions of high-potential companies with strong management teams that complement our existing business while further expanding our product lines, technological capabilities and geographic presence. We seek to enhance the performance of acquired companies by leveraging Amphenol’s position with customers across our diverse end markets, our leading technologies and our access to low-cost manufacturing around the world. In [removed: 2022,] [added: 2023,] the Company invested approximately [removed: $288] [added: $970] million to fund [removed: two] [added: 10] acquisitions, while in [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] the Company invested approximately [removed: $1.5 billion (net of the proceeds received from the divestiture of MTS Systems Corporation’s (“MTS”) Test & Simulation business in December 2021)] [added: $288 million] to fund [removed: seven acquisitions, including the acquisitions of MTS’s Sensors business in April 2021 and Halo Technology Limited (“Halo”) in December 2021.] [added: two acquisitions.] Our acquisitions in [removed: 2022] [added: 2023] and [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] have strengthened our customer base and product offerings in many of our end markets and have brought a number of high-performing new management teams into the Company. |

Rewritten

| | ● | _Foster collaborative, entrepreneurial management_ - Amphenol’s management system is designed to provide clear income statement and balance sheet responsibility in a flat organizational structure. Each general manager is [added: enabled and] incented to grow and develop their business and to think entrepreneurially in providing innovative, timely and cost-effective solutions to [added: meet] customer needs. In addition, Amphenol’s general managers have access to the resources of the larger organization and are encouraged to work collaboratively with their peers throughout the Company to meet the needs of the expanding marketplace and to achieve common goals. As the Company has grown, we have preserved this unique culture of entrepreneurship by ensuring that our executive organization can effectively drive the performance of and collaboration among our global general managers. The alignment of the Company’s businesses into three [removed: newly formed divisions, which represent the newly formed reportable segments effective January 1, 2022, reinforces this culture and clear accountability, and enhances the scalability of] [added: divisions (representing] the Company’s [removed: entrepreneurial organization.] |

New in FY2023

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy

New in FY2023

​

New in FY2023

We have developed and implemented an information security and cybersecurity risk management program (“Program”) intended to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our data and information technology systems.

New in FY2023

Our Program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program.

New in FY2023

We use the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework (the “NIST CSF”) as a benchmark to ensure that our Program is maintained in line with industry best practices.

New in FY2023

This does not imply that we meet any particular technical standards, specifications or requirements, but it does mean that we use the NIST CSF as a guide to help us identify, assess and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business.

New in FY2023

The Company maintains a decentralized information technology infrastructure, where each of our business units utilizes a separate and distinct information technology system.

New in FY2023

This means that if any business unit’s systems are compromised, there is significantly less risk that another business unit will be impacted by that event.

New in FY2023

This decentralized structure also allows our information security professionals embedded within an individual business unit to make quick, efficient decisions when changes or actions are needed and provides an additional safeguard for our data and systems.

New in FY2023

Our Program includes:

New in FY2023

| | ● | risk assessments and penetration tests integrated within our overall risk management processes that are designed to identify cybersecurity and technology risks, as well as to formulate management actions to respond to, mitigate and remediate material issues (if any); |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | annual management reporting to the Board of Directors (the “Board”); |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | reporting of the scope, objectives and results of internal audits on the procedures performed on the control environment related to our information security systems and security controls to the Audit Committee at least two times a year; |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | annual cybersecurity awareness training to instruct employees how to better identify cybersecurity concerns and to avoid actions that might inadvertently allow outsiders to access our systems; |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | installation of end point protection software on our Company-managed systems and workstations in an effort to detect and prevent malicious code from impacting our systems; |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | a cross-functional team principally responsible for managing our cybersecurity risk assessment processes and our response to cybersecurity incidents; |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, monitor, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security controls and response to cybersecurity incidents; and |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

| | ● | a documented framework and supporting processes for handling security incidents that facilitates coordination across multiple parts of the Company. |

New in FY2023

| --- | --- | --- |

New in FY2023

We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior security breach, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, financial condition and results of operations.

New in FY2023

We face certain ongoing risks from cybersecurity threats that, if realized, are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.

New in FY2023

For a discussion of certain risks related to cybersecurity, refer to the risk factor titled “_Cybersecurity incidents affecting our information technology systems could disrupt business operations or cause the release of highly sensitive confidential or personal information, resulting in adverse impacts to our reputation and operating results and potentially leading to litigation and/or governmental investigations, fines and other penalties_” in Part I, Item 1A.

Cybersecurity Governance

New in FY2023

Our Board maintains oversight responsibility relating to our Program, with assistance from the Audit Committee.

New in FY2023

At least annually, our management team (including the leaders of our Information Technology and Internal Audit teams) provides an update regarding our Program to the Board.

New in FY2023

This update provides an overall assessment of the effectiveness of our Program and a review of areas of focus for the upcoming year.

New in FY2023

The Board also receives periodic reports from our Vice President, Internal Audit, on the audit focus areas and control testing related to our information security systems

New in FY2023

and security controls, and our management team updates the Board, as necessary, regarding any material cybersecurity incidents.

New in FY2023

Our management team, including our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, Vice President, Information Technology, and Vice President, Internal Audit, is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats.

New in FY2023

The team has primary responsibility for our Program and our Vice President, Information Technology, supervises both our internal information security personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants.

New in FY2023

Our management team supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal information technology personnel and external consultants engaged by us, as well as alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in our information technology environment.

entities to provide more detailed disclosures regarding supplier finance programs used in connection with the purchase of goods and services.

New in FY2023

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, _Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures_ (“ASU 2023-07”), which amends ASC 280.

New in FY2023

The intent of ASU 2023-07 is to improve the disclosures around a public entity’s reportable segments and address requests from investors for additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses, by requiring entities to disclose on an annual and interim basis: (i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss and (ii) an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition, which represents the difference between segment revenue less segment expenses disclosed under the significant expense principle and each reported measure of segment profit or loss.

New in FY2023

Furthermore, entities will be required to: (i) provide all annual disclosures about a segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required under ASC 280 on an interim basis as well, (ii) clarify that an entity is not precluded from reporting additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss that are used by the CODM in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, and (iii) disclose 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.

New in FY2023

ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

New in FY2023

The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

New in FY2023

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, _Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures_ (“ASU 2023-09”).

New in FY2023

The intent of ASU 2023-09 is to improve the disclosures around a company’s rate reconciliation information and certain types of income taxes companies are required to pay.

New in FY2023

Specifically, these new disclosure requirements will provide more transparency regarding income taxes companies pay in the United States and other countries, along with more disclosure around a company’s rate reconciliation, among other new disclosure requirements, such that users of financial statements can get better information about how the operations, related tax risks, tax planning and operational opportunities of companies affect their effective tax rates and future cash flow prospects.

New in FY2023

ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance.

New in FY2023

The amendments under ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, although retrospective application is permitted.

New in FY2023

The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), previously announced its intent to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021.

Dropped from FY2022

In December 2020, the ICE Benchmark Administration published a consultation on its intention to extend the publication of certain U.S. dollar LIBOR (“USD LIBOR”) rates until June 30, 2023.

Dropped from FY2022

Subsequently in March 2021, the FCA announced some USD LIBOR tenors (overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month) will continue to be published until June 30, 2023.

Dropped from FY2022

The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (the “SOFR”) as its preferred benchmark alternative to USD LIBOR.

Dropped from FY2022

The SOFR represents a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is calculated based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions.

Dropped from FY2022

In response, the FASB has since issued various guidance to help facilitate the transition away from LIBOR, including, among other things, optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued by reference rate reform.

Dropped from FY2022

Effective November 30, 2021, the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 4 herein) no longer references LIBOR for interest rate determinations.

Dropped from FY2022

Since the Company does not currently have nor does it expect to have any more reliance on borrowings or any other financial instruments tied to LIBOR, the LIBOR transition will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
