13. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The Company has recorded reserves for certain legal proceedings. The amounts recorded are estimated and as additional information becomes available, the Company will reassess the potential liability related to its pending litigation and revise its estimate in the period that information becomes known. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

 

The Company notified the Office of Fair Trading about its recent acquisition of Allstar Business Solutions Limited, in which it provided an analysis that the acquisition does not result in a substantial lessening of competition on any affected market and it subsequently responded to questions posed by the Office of Fair Trading in the course of its review. We anticipate that the Office of Fair Trading will determine whether or not to make a referral to the Competition Commission for further consideration by March 28, 2012. If the Competition Commission were to conclude that the acquisition results in a substantial lessening of competition, it could require remedial action, which could negatively affect the Company's financial results.
