4. Acquisitions

        No acquisitions were completed in the first nine months of 2013. We completed one acquisition in the first quarter and two in the second quarter of 2012. These acquisitions were not material, individually or in the aggregate, and were "tucked-in" with existing operations. The results of operations of acquisitions are included in our consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates. Additional contingent purchase price ("earn-out") has been or will be paid if certain acquisitions achieve predetermined profitability targets.
