Note 11 – Impact of Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update that gives an entity the option to perform a qualitative assessment in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. Based on this qualitative assessment, if the fair value of a reporting unit is not less than its carrying amount, the entity is not required to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The Company adopted the provisions of this update January 1, 2012. The adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The amended standard requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of this guidance is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

 

The Company has determined that all other recently issued accounting standards will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, or do not apply to its operations.
