Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information at June 30, 2012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which in the opinion of management, are necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial information set forth therein in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent Events

We have evaluated all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and have not identified any such events.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Adoption of Standards

Adoption of Standards

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, and the IASB issued IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement. The new guidance results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption prohibited. The new guidance changes certain fair value measurement principles and disclosure requirements. We adopted this ASU January 1, 2012. The adoption of the provisions of this guidance did not have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. The standard is intended to enhance comparability between entities that report under US GAAP and those that report under IFRS, and to provide a more consistent method of presenting non-owner transactions that affect an entity’s equity. Under the ASU, an entity can elect to present items of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. Each component of net income and each component of other comprehensive income, together with totals for comprehensive income and its two parts, net income and other comprehensive income, would need to be displayed under either alternative. The statement(s) would need to be presented with equal prominence as the other primary financial statements. This ASU does not change items that constitute net income and other comprehensive income, when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income or the earnings-per-share computation (which will continue to be based on net income). The new US GAAP requirements are effective for public entities as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2011 and interim and annual periods thereafter. We adopted this ASU January 1, 2012. The adoption of the provisions of this guidance did not have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update 2011-05. This ASU defers certain provisions of ASU 2011-05, which required entities to present reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component in the statement in which net income is presented and the statement in which comprehensive income is presented for both interim and annual periods. This requirement is indefinitely deferred by this ASU and will be further deliberated by the FASB at a future date. The new ASU is effective for public entities as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2011 and interim and annual periods thereafter, the same as that for the unaffected provisions of ASU 2011-05. We adopted this ASU January 1, 2012.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment (the revised standard) (Topic 350). The objective of this ASU is to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. The amendments in the ASU provide the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The revised standard includes examples of events and circumstances that might indicate that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. These include macro-economic conditions such as deterioration in the entity’s operating environment, entity-specific events such as declining financial performance, and other events such as an expectation that a reporting unit will be sold. An entity should also consider in its qualitative assessment the “cushion” between a reporting unit’s fair value and carrying amount if determined in a recent fair value calculation. The revised standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of the provisions of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.
