New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, approved the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification, or ASC, as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP. All existing accounting standard
guidance issued by the FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force and
related literature, excluding guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, has been superseded
by the ASC. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC has become non-
authoritative. The ASC did not change GAAP, but instead introduced a new structure that combines all authoritative
standards into a comprehensive, topically organized online database. The ASC was effective for interim or annual
periods ending after September 15, 2009.
Accordingly, the Company adopted the ASC as of October 10, 2009 as provided by Accounting Standards
Update, or ASU, No. 2009-01, “Topic 105 – Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – amendments based on
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” As a result of this adoption, previous references to new
accounting standards and literature are no longer applicable. The Company has provided references to both new and
old guidance to assist in understanding the impacts of recently adopted accounting literature, particularly for
guidance adopted since the beginning of the current fiscal year but prior to the ASC.
Effective October 10, 2009, the Company adopted ASU No. 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures (ASC Topic 820): Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value.” This ASU provides amendments to ASC Topic
820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall,” for the fair value measurement of liabilities. It
provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is
not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using (a) a valuation technique that uses the quoted
price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities and/or (b) an income
approach valuation technique or a market approach valuation technique, consistent with the principles of ASC Topic
820. The adoption had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
