(1) Contingent consideration includes 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 4) and additional purchase price, based on achieving specific conditions and earnings targets, relating to FCStone, LLC’s previous acquisitions of Downes O’Neill, LLC (“Downes O’Neill”) and Globecot, Inc. (“Globecot”). When the Downes O’Neill and Globecot acquisitions occurred, they were recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”). As a result of the FCStone transaction on September 30, 2009, these contingent purchase price amounts were considered pre-acquisition contingencies, which were 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. The final pre-acquisition contingency expense was recorded during fiscal year 2013 and there are no further contingent payments relating to the Downes O’Neill or Globecot acquisitions.
