RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The FASB issued in November 2021 an update to accounting guidance requiring disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions with a government accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy, including (i) the types of transactions, (ii) the accounting for those transactions, and (iii) the effect of those transactions on an entity’s financial statements. The Company adopted the update in the first quarter of 2022 using the prospective approach. The adoption of the update did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements footnote disclosures as the amount of government assistance recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2022 was immaterial.

Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted as of July 31, 2022

The FASB issued in October 2021 an update to accounting guidance to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to their recognition and measurement. The update requires an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with the revenue recognition guidance. This generally will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date. Historically, such amounts were recognized by the acquirer at fair value. The update will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company will apply the update to applicable transactions occurring on or after the adoption date. The impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements will depend on the facts and circumstances of any future transactions.
The FASB issued in March 2020 an update to provide temporary optional guidance intended to ease the potential burden of accounting for reference rate reform. The amendments in the update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates if certain criteria are met. The amendments were effective upon issuance and can be applied on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. The adoption of the update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
