Other Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends ASC 220, Comprehensive Income. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as a part of the statement of shareholders’ equity and requires other comprehensive income to be presented as part of a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in a statement of other comprehensive income immediately following the statement of income. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income. This guidance will be effective beginning in fiscal year 2012 and must be retrospectively applied to all reporting periods presented. The FASB has permitted early adoption. ASU 2011-05 will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Goodwill
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which gives companies testing goodwill for impairment the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in step one of the goodwill impairment test. If companies determine, based on qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. Otherwise, further testing would not be needed. This guidance will be effective beginning in fiscal year 2012, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.
