(4) Acquisitions

From time to time, we acquire and invest in companies throughout the world, including franchises. The total cash consideration for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $16.9 and $34.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For those acquisitions completed during the first quarter of 2013, our cash payments were fully offset by the cash acquired.
