Purchase Commitments
The Company has long-term commitments for bandwidth usage and co-location services with various network and Internet service providers. For the remainder of 2012 and for the years ending December 31, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, the minimum commitments pursuant to these contracts in effect as of September 30, 2012 were approximately $38.6 million, $57.3 million, $4.4 million, $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2012, the Company had entered into purchase orders with various vendors for aggregate purchase commitments of $62.5 million, most of which are expected to be paid over the next twelve months.
Litigation
The Company is party to various litigation matters that management considers routine and incidental to its business. Management does not expect the results of any of these routine actions to have a material impact on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Guarantees
The Company has identified guarantees in accordance with the authoritative guidance for guarantor’s accounting and disclosure requirements for guarantees, including indirect guarantees of indebtedness of others, which is an interpretation of previous accounting statements and a rescission of previous guidance. This guidance elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit. The guidance also clarifies that at the time an entity issues a guarantee, that entity must recognize an initial liability for the fair value, or market value, of the obligation it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements. The Company evaluates losses for guarantees under the statement for accounting for contingencies, as interpreted by the guidance for guarantor’s accounting and disclosure requirements for guarantees, including direct guarantees of indebtedness of others. The Company considers such factors as the degree of probability that the Company would be required to satisfy the liability associated with the guarantee and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss. To date, the Company has not incurred material costs as a result of such obligations and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in its financial statements. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding guarantees as of September 30, 2012 was determined to be immaterial.
