Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Pronouncements:
1. Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Pronouncements:

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the notes thereto presented in this Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial statements, and do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of interim periods. The financial statements include all the accounts of MEDNAX, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “MDX”) together with the accounts of MDX’s affiliated professional associations, corporations and partnerships (the “affiliated professional contractors”). MDX has contractual management arrangements with its affiliated professional contractors, which are separate legal entities that provide physician services in certain states and Puerto Rico. The terms “MEDNAX” and the “Company” refer collectively to MEDNAX, Inc., its subsidiaries and the affiliated professional contractors.

The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be experienced for the entire fiscal year. In addition, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”).

Reclassifications have been made to certain prior period financial statements to conform with the current year presentation. Specifically, the Company reclassified $40.7 million of its deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2013 from current deferred income taxes to long-term deferred income taxes. This revision represents the correction of an error in the classification of certain deferred tax assets in our prior period financial statements that the Company has determined to be immaterial.

All share and per share data set forth herein give effect to the two-for-one split of the Company’s common stock that became effective on December 19, 2013.
