L.             Recently Issued and Proposed Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued amended guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements. This amendment provides companies the option to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement of comprehensive income or as two separate but consecutive statements. It eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The provisions of this guidance are effective for interim and annual periods in 2012. We have adopted all provisions of this pronouncement by including other comprehensive income as a part of our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss and such adoption did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and related disclosures. This amendment clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 measurements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We have adopted all provisions of this pronouncement and such adoption did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
