(10) Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2010-06, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements" ("ASU 2010-06"), which requires new disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The ASU also requires additional information in the roll-forward of Level 3 assets and liabilities including the presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. Further clarification for existing disclosure requirements provides for the disaggregation of assets and liabilities presented, and the enhancement of disclosures around inputs and valuation techniques. This ASU impacts disclosures only. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of this ASU in the first quarter of 2010, with the exception of the additional required information in the roll-forward of Level 3 assets and liabilities, which was adopted in the first quarter of 2011. No transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy occurred or were required during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The Company's adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2011, the FASB issued amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification relating to the financial statement presentation of comprehensive income. The amendments eliminate the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders' equity, and require that all nonowner changes in stockholders' equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements of income and comprehensive income. Under either method, the statement would need to be presented with equal prominence as the other primary financial statements. This new guidance is to be applied retrospectively beginning with the first quarter of 2012. These amendments will not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, but will impact the presentation of its consolidated financial statements.
