In the opinion of management, all adjustments and  disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim  condensed consolidated financial statements, which are of a normal  and recurring nature, have been included. The results reported in  the condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim  periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be  reported for the entire year. The (a) condensed consolidated  balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, which was derived from  audited financial statements, and (b) the unaudited interim  condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared  pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and  Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures  normally included in annual financial statements prepared in  accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the  United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those  rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the  disclosures made are adequate to make the information not  misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial  statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated  financial statements and accompanying footnotes of the Company for  the year ended December 31, 2012.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Use of estimates&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with  generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to  make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of  assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements  and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the  reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical  experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be  reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may  differ from these estimates under different assumptions or  conditions.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Cash and cash equivalents&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  Cash and cash equivalents consist of all cash balances and highly  liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or  less. &amp;#160;Because of the short maturity of these investments, the  carrying amounts approximate their fair value. &amp;#160;Restricted  cash is excluded from cash and cash equivalents.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Accounts receivable&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  Accounts receivable are stated at cost, net of an allowance for  doubtful accounts. &amp;#160; The Company maintains allowances for  doubtful accounts for estimated losses, if any, resulting from the  failure of customers to make required payments. The Company reviews  the accounts and bills receivable on a periodic basis and makes  allowances where there is doubt as to the collectibility of  individual balances. In evaluating the collectibility of individual  receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including  the age of the balance, the customer&amp;#8217;s payment history, its  current credit-worthiness and current economic trends.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Inventories&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a  weighted average basis, or market. Costs of inventories include  purchase and related costs incurred in bringing the products to  their present location and condition. Market value is determined by  reference to selling prices after the balance sheet date or to  management&amp;#8217;s estimates based on prevailing market conditions.  Management will write down the inventories to market value if it is  below cost. Management also regularly evaluates the composition of  its inventories to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories to  determine if a valuation allowance is required.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Property, plant and equipment&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated  depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Gains or  losses on disposals are reflected as gain or loss in the year of  disposal. The cost of improvements that extend the life of  buildings, machinery and equipment are capitalized. These  capitalized costs may include structural improvements, equipment  and fixtures. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are  expensed as incurred.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;

Impairment is  considered to exist if the total estimated future cash flows on an  undiscounted basis are less than the carrying amount of the assets,  including goodwill, if any.

ASU 2013-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after  December 15, 2012. All necessary disclosures have been complied  within these financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board  (&amp;#8220;FASB&amp;#8221;) issued Accounting Standards Update No.  2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters, (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting  for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of  Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or  of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (ASU 2013-05), to resolve a  diversity in accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment  of foreign currency upon derecognition of a foreign subsidiary or  group of assets. ASU 2013-05 requires the parent to apply the  guidance in Subtopic 830-30 to release any related cumulative  translation adjustment into net income when a reporting entity  (parent) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a  subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. Accordingly,  the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net  income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or  substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which  the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. Further, ASU 2013-05  clarified that the parent should apply the guidance in subtopic  810-10 if there is a sale of an investment in a foreign entity,  including both (1) events that result in the loss of a controlling  financial interest in a foreign entity and (2) events that result  in an acquirer obtaining control of an acquiree in which it held an  equity interest immediately before the acquisition date.  Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be  released into net income upon the occurrence of those events. ASU  2013-05 is effective prospectively for the Company in our first  quarter of fiscal 2014, with early adoption permitted. The Company  does not expect ASU 2013-05 to have a significant impact on its  consolidated result of operations and financial condition.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.  2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740)(ASU 2013-11). The amendments in  this update provide guidance on the financial statement  presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating  loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward  exists. These amendments provide that an unrecognized tax benefit,  or a portion thereof, should be presented in the financial  statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net  operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit  carryforward, except to the extent that a net operating loss  carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is  not available at the reporting date to settle any additional income  taxes that would result from disallowance of a tax position, or the  tax law does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not  intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, then the  unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability. The  amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and  interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15,  2013. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect ASU  2013-11 to have a significant impact on its consolidated result of  operations and financial condition.&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  &amp;#160;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="clear:both; FONT-FAMILY:Times New Roman;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0pt 0px; FONT: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif"&gt;  Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the  FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption  until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on  the Company&amp;#8217;s consolidated financial statements upon  adoption.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;        </NonNumbericText><FootnoteIndexer /><CurrencyCode /><CurrencySymbol /><IsIndependantCurrency>false</IsIndependantCurrency><ShowCurrencySymbol>false</ShowCurrencySymbol><DisplayDateInUSFormat>false</DisplayDateInUSFormat></Cell></Cells><ElementDataType>nonnum:textBlockItemType</ElementDataType><SimpleDataType>na</SimpleDataType><ElementDefenition>The entire disclosure for all significant accounting policies of the reporting entity.</ElementDefenition><ElementReferences>Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef
