New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued accounting guidance updating the presentation format of comprehensive income. The guidance provided two options for presenting net income and other comprehensive income. The total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income may be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company adopted the new guidance beginning February 1, 2013. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued accounting guidance clarifying the scope of disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its fiscal 2013 financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued accounting guidance intended to improve the reporting classifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income of various components. This guidance was effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those periods, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the new guidance beginning February 1, 2013, the beginning of the Company's 2013 fiscal year.

In July 2013, the FASB issued accounting guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, or similar tax loss, or a tax carryforward exists. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its fiscal 2014 financial statements.
