New Standards Issued Not Yet Adopted
As of January 1, 2027, Ovintiv will be required to adopt ASU 2024-03 “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” for annual disclosures with interim disclosures required beginning in the first quarter of 2028. The new standard requires that an entity disclose tabular information about certain expenses including, but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense that are presented within expense line captions reported in the statement of earnings. A qualitative description of the remaining other amounts within those expense line captions will be required. The Company will also be required to determine and disclose its definition of selling expenses and the total amount of selling expenses. The amendments are to be applied prospectively, with the option for retrospective application, and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. |
