BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Effective January 1, 2014, the Company recorded a liability for the contractual purchase of the remaining shares of one variable interest entity. The amount is preliminary and is based on the Company’s best estimate of this obligation, which is subject to contractual adjustments. As a result, the Company recorded a reduction to additional paid in capital for the excess of the purchase price above the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest. The Company anticipates the cash outflow for this purchase to be later in 2014 or early in 2015.
