Webcast: The SEC Revised Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (C&DIs)

Wednesday, September 14 from 10am-12 noon (Eastern Time)

Marc Scarcella, Principal and Economic & Complex Analytics Practice Area Leader at Roux Associates, will be speaking in a webcast on Wednesday, September 14 presented by The Knowledge Group: The SEC Revised Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (C&DIs): Time to Rethink Your Firm’s Current Non-GAAP Measures.

About the Webcast:

Financial statements prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) provide investors, analysts, and other users with a defined basis for conducting financial analysis and comparison among different entities. A Non-GAAP financial measure is anything other than those specified, defined, or determined by the GAAP, which can be useful in providing insight into a company’s financial performance, financial conditions, and/or cash flow. However, Non-GAAP financial measures are often company-specific, and can be problematic if they are not defined properly and accurately.

As a result, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has heightened its enforcement of Non-GAAP disclosure rules, even revising its Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (C&DIs) relating to these measures. In this two-hour webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders will provide the audience with an in-depth discussion of the SEC’s revised C&DIs, covering how to avoid potential legal pitfalls.

Marc will be specifically addressing the following:

• Considerations for disclosing litigation and environmental risks
• Striking a balance between providing necessary transparency without creating unnecessary balance sheet drag
• Evaluation of offsetting insurance assets to minimize net material impact on operations
• Factors to consider when disclosing
• How to handle uncertainty
• Disclosure process
