In September, the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) issued a report on findings and recommendations arising from its second targeted continuous disclosure review of business income trust issuers. The report posted some rather dim results, given that of the 45 income trusts issuers reviewed only seven had no identified deficiencies in their continuous disclosure. The CSA once again identified the presentation of non-GAAP measures as a significant issue. The report followed on the heels of the publication of a revised staff notice on Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The revised staff notice narrows the definition of what is acceptable disclosure of non-GAAP financial measures. This article will explore the impact of these revisions so that IROs can better evaluate the use of non-GAAP measures in their MD&As. |
