1.Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial reporting and the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP.  We believe the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented.  Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for our full fiscal year.  The accounting policies applied during the interim periods presented are consistent with the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2011.

In May 2011, the FASB amended ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” in order to clarify existing guidance in U.S. GAAP, better align ASC 820 with International Accounting Standards and require additional fair value disclosures.  The amendments to ASC 820 were adopted by us in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, with all amendments applied prospectively with changes in measurements, if any, recognized in earnings in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The adoption of the amendments to ASC 820 in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB amended ASC 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” This amendment is intended to reduce the cost and complexity of performing an impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by simplifying how we test those assets for impairment and to improve consistency in impairment testing among long-lived asset categories. The amendment provides us with the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other — General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. We also have the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. We will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendment is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of the amendment to ASC 350 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
