The guidance also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This guidance became effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2011 and is applied prospectively to business combinations that have an acquisition date on or after January 2, 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. In May 2011, an accounting pronouncement was issued to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements under GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This pronouncement provides for a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between GAAP and IFRS. The pronouncement changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands fair value measurement disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 measurements. This pronouncement will become effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In June 2011, an accounting pronouncement was issued relating to the presentation of comprehensive income. This pronouncement requires the presentation of comprehensive income in either (i) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (ii) two separate, but consecutive statements. This pronouncement will become effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In September 2011, an accounting pronouncement was issued to update the testing of goodwill for impairment. This pronouncement provides companies with the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in step one of its goodwill impairment test. If a company determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not to be less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required to be performed. Otherwise, further impairment testing would not be needed. This pronouncement will become effective for the Company in 2012. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In September 2011, an accounting pronouncement was issued to increase the quantitative and qualitative disclosures a contributing employer is required to provide about its participation in significant multi-employer plans that offer pension or other postretirement benefits. The objective is to enhance the transparency of this disclosure by reporting: (i) the significant multi-employer plans in which an employer participates, (ii) the level of the employer’s participation in these plans, (iii) the financial health of the plans, and (iv) the nature of the employer’s commitments to the plans. This pronouncement will become effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
