RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations:  In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations,” (Topic 805) - Business Combinations (ASU 2010-29), to improve consistency in how the pro forma disclosures are calculated.  The amendment enhances the disclosure requirements and requires description of the nature and amount of any material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to a business combination.  The amendment became effective for the Company beginning on April 1, 2011 and is applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is after the effective date.  The Company will assess the impact of the amendment if and when future business combinations occur.
 
Presentation of Comprehensive Income:  In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” (Topic 220) - Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05), to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  ASU 2011-05 eliminates the currently available option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity.  The amendment does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.  The amendment will be effective for the Company beginning on April 1, 2012.  As this guidance relates to presentation only, the adoption of this guidance will not have any other effect on the Company's financial statements.
 
Testing Goodwill for Impairment:  In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” (Topic 350) - Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment.  ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value.  If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test.  Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required.  The amendment will be effective for the Company beginning on April 1, 2012 and earlier adoption is permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the amendment on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
