Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements

(14) EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in ASU 2010-20 which temporarily delayed the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructuring in ASU 2010-20. This delay was intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The provisions of ASU 2011-02 provide additional guidance related to determining whether a creditor has granted a concession, including factors and examples for creditors to consider in evaluating when a credit restructuring results in a delay in payment that is insignificant, prohibits creditors from using the borrowers interest cost as a factor in determining whether the lender has granted a concession to the borrower, and added factors for creditors to use in determining whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. A provision in ASU 2011-02 ends the FASB’s deferral of additional disclosures about troubled debt restructuring as required by ASU 2010-20. The provisions of ASU 2011-02 were effective for the Company’s reporting period ending September 30, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements of income, condition and cash flow.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and international Financial Reporting Standards (Topic 820) – Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2011-04), to provide consistent definition of the fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 was effective for reporting periods ending after March 30, 2012, and was applied prospectively. The implementation of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements of income, condition and cash flow.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income, new disclosure guidance related to the presentation of the Statement of Comprehensive Income. This guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity and requires presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of the income statement. The effective date of this pronouncement is December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements of income, condition, and cash flow.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-8, Intangibles – Goodwill and other, regarding testing goodwill for impairment. The new guidance provides an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting until is less than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that this is the case, it is required to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of goodwill reporting unit is more than its carrying amount, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The new guidance was effective on January 1, 2012. The implementation of ASU 2011-8 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements of income, condition and cash flow.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards update No. 2011-05. This update to Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) defers the requirement to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income separately with their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. The deferral supersedes only the paragraphs pertaining to how and where reclassification adjustments are presented. The amendments in this update were effective for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
