For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, contingent consideration included remeasurement of contingent liabilities related to business combinations accounted for in accordance with the provisions of the Business Combinations Topic of the ASC (see Note 3). Also, for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, contingent consideration included additional purchase price, based on achieving specific conditions and earnings targets, relating to FCStone, LLC’s previous acquisition of Globecot, Inc. (“Globecot”). The Globecot acquisition was recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”). As a result of the Company’s merger with FCStone Group, Inc. (“FCStone”) on September 30, 2009, this contingent purchase price amount was considered a pre-acquisition contingency, which was not reasonably estimable during the merger allocation period following the FCStone transaction. In accordance with SFAS 141, adjustments to pre-acquisition contingencies, made after the end of the allocation period, are included in earnings in the current period. There is no further contingent consideration outstanding related to the Globecot acquisition.
