RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

NOTE 2 – RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In 2012, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-05 which requires the presentation of the components of net income and other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements, with the exception of the presentation of reclassifications on the face of the financial statements, which has been deferred by ASC Update No. 2011-12.  This update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders equity.  We also adopted ASU 2011-12 which defers the requirement to disclose the effect of items that are reclassified out of accumulated comprehensive income separately in the statement of income.

In 2012, we adopted ASU 2011-08 which amended the guidance for goodwill impairment to provide an option for companies to first use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment if certain conditions are met.  The implementation of the amended guidance was effective for our annual goodwill impairment test performed in the second quarter of 2012 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operation, financial position, or cash flows.
