The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This update is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022. We are evaluating the impact of this new standard but do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.</span></div>
