IFRIC rejects call to review climate-related intangible assets | News

The International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) has declined to add a new standard-setting project on accounting for intangible assets arising from climate-related commitments, citing a lack of widespread practice diversity and material impact.

Instead, the committee concluded that existing International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) offer sufficient guidance for handling such expenditures.

IFRIC member Lisa Bomba said: “Similar to others, I think the staff appropriately […] did research around whether there was diversity, given similar facts and circumstances about how to account for research and development.

“What you heard was [that] there wasn’t diversity there. I do agree with the conclusions and I would just recommend the application of IAS38 to the fact pattern submitted.” 

Questions from Rethinking Capital

The discussion was prompted by a submission from Rethinking Capital questioning whether costs incurred to meet a company’s self-imposed emissions-reduction targets – specifically, expenditures on carbon credits and research-and-development initiatives – could be recognised as intangible assets under IAS 38.

The submission argued that a so-called 2030 Commitment to lower greenhouse gas emissions, backed by “affirmative actions”, might create intangible value worthy of capitalisation.

Earlier this year, IFRIC had addressed a related question from the same submitter and concluded that if a constructive obligation to fulfil climate-related commitments existed, the corresponding amounts generally should be recognised as expenses rather than assets.

Overlap with IAS 37 accounting

This latest submission, however, homed in on whether certain climate-related outlays could qualify for capitalisation.

Following outreach to national standard-setters, accounting firms, and securities regulators, staff concluded that there was no evidence of widespread or material diversity in practice.

Although some respondents acknowledged minor differences in judgments or industry-specific nuances, the committee did not see these as significant enough to warrant an interpretations project. Several committee members supported the staff’s conclusions.

Consensus among committee members

Renata Bandeira noted it was in her view “impossible” to come down in favour of capitalising costs “because we don’t have enough information […] [and we] don’t have the elements to say that it should be treated differently from what we have in IAS 38.”

André Besson also voiced support for the staff’s analysis, saying that “as much as we as preparers might want to capitalise some of these costs […] many […] would not pass the requirements in IAS 38 to be capitalised”.

He also commented that climate-related expenditures often resemble brand-building or marketing efforts, which do not meet the requirements for capitalisation as intangible assets.

Finally, Brian Donovan added that staff were right to conclude “that there isn’t yet evidence of diversity”.

IASB could revisit the accounting

The decision comes against the backdrop of the International Accounting Standards Board’s (IASB) ongoing research activities.

The IASB has been conducting so-called horizon scanning on pollutant pricing mechanisms – including carbon credits – to assess their prevalence and significance. While that work may eventually inform standard-setting, any such work could be several years off.

In addition, the IASB is conducting a comprehensive review of intangible assets accounting. Interested parties have until 3 February 2025 to comment on the committee’s decision.

If the public comments reveal no additional information or concerns about the ruling, the IFRIC will formalise its decision, leaving businesses to continue applying IAS 38.
