2.New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB expanded the disclosure requirements with respect to changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Under this new guidance, companies will be required to disclose the amount of income (or loss) reclassified out of AOCI to each respective line item on the statements of earnings where net income is presented. The guidance allows companies to elect whether to disclose the reclassification either in the notes to the financial statements or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements. This update is effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. Since the accounting guidance only impacts disclosure requirements, its adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
