Note 2 Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. This standard provides guidance on releasing cumulative translation adjustments to net earnings when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or business within a foreign entity. The cumulative translation adjustments should be released only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets resides. This standard is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this newly issued guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires entities to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, entities are required to present, either on the face of the statement where net earnings are presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, but only if the amount is required under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") to be reclassified to net earnings in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net earnings, entities are required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail on these amounts. This standard is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance on February 3, 2013. See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
