Highlight of Business Operations:
In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance regarding the testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The new guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible is impaired as a basis to determining whether it is necessary to perform the required annual impairment test. This accounting guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012; however, early adoption is permitted. The impact of adoption will not have a material effect on the companys consolidated financial statements.In January 2012, the company adopted new accounting guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income.
