Business Combinations The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations. The guidance requires consideration given, including contingent consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be valued at their fair market values at the acquisition date. The guidance further provides that: (1) acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred and (2) changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense.

Noncontrolling Interest A noncontrolling interest is the equity interest of consolidated entities that is not owned by the Company. Noncontrolling interest is adjusted for the noncontrolling partners' share of earnings (losses) in accordance with the applicable agreement. Earnings allocated to such noncontrolling partners are recorded as income applicable to noncontrolling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Share-based Compensation The Company has elected to account for restricted stock awards with market conditions using a graded vesting method. This recognizes the compensation cost in the statement of operations over the requisite service period for each separately-vesting tranche of awards. Adoption of Highly Inflationary Accounting in Argentina GAAP guidance requires the use of highly inflationary accounting for countries whose cumulative three-year inflation exceeds 100 percent. Under highly inflationary accounting, PM Group’s Argentina subsidiary’s functional currency became the Euro (its parent company’s reporting currency), and its income statement and balance sheet have been measured in Euros using both current and historical rates of exchange.
