RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” The objective of this update is to improve the comparability, consistency, and transparency of financial reporting to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This update requires that all nonowner changes in stockholders' equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. In December of 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05." Titan adopted the required comprehensive income presentation updates in the first quarter of 2012. The Company has elected to present items of income and other comprehensive income in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. This change in presentation did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Intangibles Impairment Testing
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment." The objective of this update is to reduce the cost and complexity of performing an impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets. The amendments in the update permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
