Recent Accounting Pronouncements - On July 1, 2012, the Company adopted the updated guidance to Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, issued by the FASB. This update required companies to present comprehensive income in either one or two consecutive financial statements and eliminated the option that permits the presentation of other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity. The Company adopted the method of presentation using one consecutive financial statement.

 In January 2013, the FASB issued another update to the guidance in ASC Topic 220. This update does not change the requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements, but rather improves the transparency of reporting reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2013, and adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In July 2012, the FASB issued an update to ASC Topic 350, Intangibles- Goodwill and Other: Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The update simplifies the guidance for testing impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill. Examples of intangible assets subject to the guidance include indefinite-lived trademarks, licenses, and distribution rights. The amendment allows a company the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. A company electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the company determines, based on such qualitative assessment, that it is "more likely than not" that the asset is impaired. The changes to Codification Topic 350 will be effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
