Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard update that simplifies how entities test goodwill for impairment. This update permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Previous guidance required an entity to test goodwill for impairment, on at least an annual basis, by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the second step of the test must be performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Under the amendments in this update, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company elected to early adopt this accounting standard update as of December 31, 2011 and such early adoption did not have a material impact to the Company.

In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In the two-statement approach, the first statement should present total net income and its components followed consecutively by a second statement that should present total other comprehensive income, the components of other comprehensive income, and the total of comprehensive income. Historically, these components of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income have been presented in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity by many companies, including the Company. This requirement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and will be effective for the Company in the quarter ending March 31, 2012. The adoption of this update has resulted in the addition of a new consolidated statement of comprehensive income being added to the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

In May 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments in this update do not require additional fair value measurements, but provide additional guidance as to measuring fair value as well as certain additional disclosure requirements. The requirements in this update are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and became effective for the Company in the quarter ending March 31, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures included in its consolidated financial statements.
