Comprehensive loss consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive loss. Other comprehensive loss refers to revenue, expenses, gains, and losses that under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are recorded as an element of equity but are excluded from net loss. The Company’s other comprehensive loss is composed of unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap agreements accounted for as cash flow hedges and the Company’s foreign currency translation of its operations in Latin America, Central America and the Caribbean. The impact of the unrealized loss increased accumulated other comprehensive loss on a consolidated basis by approximately $5.1 million and $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
