Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 220, Comprehensive Income. This amendment eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders' equity. In addition, items of other comprehensive income that may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future are required to be presented separately from those that would never be reclassified. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and interim periods within that year. Accordingly, this amendment was adopted in the first quarter fiscal year 2013. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
