THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
THE TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN A LOCK-UP AGREEMENT DATED AS OF JULY________, 2010 BETWEEN THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES AND THE PERSON TO WHOM THESE SECURITIES ORIGINALLY WERE ISSUED. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES WILL FURNISH A COPY OF SUCH LOCK-UP AGREEMENT TO THE HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES WITHOUT CHARGE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.
1.5 Consents to Assignment. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any contract, lease, authorization, license or Permit, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto or of the issuing Governmental Entity, as the case may be, would constitute a breach thereof. If a Deferred Consent is not obtained, or if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof would be ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that Buyer would not receive all such rights, then, in each such case, (a) the Deferred Item shall be withheld from sale pursuant to this Agreement without any reduction in the Purchase Price, (b) from and after the Closing, Sellers and Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to obtain such Deferred Consent as soon as practicable after the Closing, and (c) until such Deferred Consent is obtained, Sellers and Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to provide to Buyer the benefits under the Deferred Item to which such Deferred Consent relates (with Buyer entitled to all the gains and responsible for all the losses, Taxes, liabilities and/or obligations thereunder). In particular, in the event that any such Deferred Consent is not obtained prior to the Closing, then Buyer and Seller shall enter into such arrangements (including subleasing or subcontracting if permitted) to provide to the Parties the economic and operational equivalent of obtaining such Deferred Consent and assigning or transferring such contract, lease, authorization, license or Permit, including enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of all claims or rights arising thereunder, and the performance by Buyer of the obligations thereunder on a prompt and punctual basis.
1.6 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, as and when requested by any Party hereto and at such Party’s expense, the other Party shall promptly execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents, instruments and certificates and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other actions as are necessary to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

In the event that Buyer proceeds to Closing without terminating the Agreement, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to recover Damages from Sellers resulting from such change.

Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case such response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Claimed Amount, by check or by wire transfer), (ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive the Agreed Amount (in which case such response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Agreed Amount, by check or by wire transfer), or (iii) contest that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount.

6.5 Limitations on Indemnification by Sellers.
(a) Sellers’ Basket. Sellers shall not be liable under Section 6.1 (a) unless and until the aggregate Damages for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6.1(a) exceed US$100,000 (the “Sellers’ Basket”), after which the Seller shall be liable only for those Damages in excess of the Sellers’ Basket. For purposes solely of determining the amount of Damages for which Sellers are jointly and severally liable under this Article VI (and not for determining whether or not any breaches of representations or warranties have occurred), all representations and warranties of Sellers in Article II (other than Section 2.5) shall be construed as if the term “material” and any reference to “Business Material Adverse Effect” (and variations thereof) were omitted from such representations and warranties.
(b) Payment of Indemnification Claims by Seller; Sellers’ Cap. In the event that Sellers are required to make any indemnification payments pursuant to this Article VI, Sellers shall make such payments by delivery of Buyer’s Common Stock. The Parties agree that such Common Stock shall be valued at an amount equal to the closing price of such Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg LP on the date that such indemnification obligation is finally determined.

If an indemnification claim is properly asserted in writing pursuant to Section 6.3 prior to the expiration of the 18 months of the survival period, Seller will not sell any shares that will reduce the number of shares held by Seller below 2,994,002 shares until such claim has been finally adjudicated or settled.
(c) No Limitation on Certain Claims. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, subject to the Sellers’ Cap, Buyer shall be entitled to dollar-for-dollar indemnification from the first dollar and shall not be subject to Sellers’ Basket, or any limit on Damages, or any limitation as to time in seeking indemnification (except that claims for breach pursuant to Section 2.16 shall be limited as to time as set forth in Section 6.4(a)), with respect to Damages under:

For purposes solely of determining the amount of Damages for which Buyer is liable under this Article VI (and not for determining whether or not any breaches of representations or warranties have occurred), all representations and warranties of Buyer in Article III shall be construed as if the term “material” and any reference to “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” (and variations thereof) were omitted from such representations and warranties.
(b) Buyer’s Cap. Buyer shall not be liable under Section 6.2(a) for Damages in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Closing Value.
(c) No Limitation on Certain Claims. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, subject to the Sellers’ Cap, Sellers shall be entitled to dollar-for-dollar indemnification from the first dollar and shall not be subject to Buyer’s Basket, or any limit on Damages, or any limitation as to time in seeking indemnification, with respect to Damages under:
(i) Section 6.2(a) relating to a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2; or
(ii) Sections 6.2(b) and (c).
6.7 Exclusive Remedy. Except with respect to claims based on fraud and claims for equitable relief, including specific performance, made with respect to breaches of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, the rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties with respect to claims resulting from or relating to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty or other provision contained in this Agreement.
6.8 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.
6.9 Mitigation. Prior to application of Sellers’ Basket or Buyer’s Basket or payment of any claims under this Article VI, the amount of any Damages shall be reduced by (i) any reimbursements or other amounts to which any of the Indemnified Parties is entitled from third parties in connection with such Damages, and (ii) any insurance proceeds to which any of the Indemnified Parties is entitled in connection with such Damages. The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue all such reimbursements or proceeds that may reduce or eliminate any claims. If any of the Indemnified Parties receives any such reimbursements or proceeds after a payment is made which relates thereto, the Party that received such reimbursement or proceeds shall promptly deliver to the other Party such amount of the indemnification payment as would not have been paid had the reimbursements or proceeds reduced the original payment.
25
6.10 Claims Involving Pre-Closing and Post-Closing Liability. Subject to the procedures set forth in Section 6.3(b), in the event that any third party brings a claim relating to the Business for a matter that involves both pre-closing and post-closing activity and the third party successfully recovers damages resulting from that claim, then Buyer shall be responsible and pay for any damages relating to that portion of the activity that relates to post-closing activity and Sellers shall be responsible for that portion of the activity that relates to pre-closing activity.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
ASI Holdings Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ASI Holdings Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009. ASI Holdings Limited and subsidiaries’ management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ASI Holdings Limited and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses and insufficient capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ASI Holdings Limited and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
General
ASI Holdings Limited (the Company or we/us/our) was incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong as a limited liability company in May 2007. The Company’s principle registered offices is located at Wanchai, Hong Kong. The Company is engaged in the development, commercialization, and sales of audio products, sound systems, and audio components.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s financial statements for all periods presented have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation. The functional currency is the Hong kong Dollar (HKD); however the accompanying financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars (USD).
GOING CONCERN:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company's assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. Through December 31, 2009, the Company had incurred cumulative losses of $2,930,658 including net losses from continuing operations of $668.945 for the year ended December 31, 2009.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management has taken the following steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, (i) The company plans to raise additional capital by selling more shares to current shareholders and potential investors with a discount price (ii) The company also plans to borrow money from current shareholders and potential investors with an attractive interest rate. (iii) The company plans to reduce overhead and expenses by reducing unnecessary marketing and advertisement expenses, improving efficiency on distribution channel, freezing salary increase and laying off administrative staffs.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2009 include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries The Digital Experience Limited (a Hong Kong corporation) and ASI Audio Technologies L.L.C. The Digital Experience Limited was disposed on November 11, 2009, accordingly, the subsidiary’s operating results for the period ending December 31, 2009 only reflect the indicated period and the balance sheet at December 31, 2009 does not include The Digital Experience Limited. All material inter-company accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the combined financial statements and disclosures made in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company is the local currency, the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”). The financial statements of the Company are translated into United States dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounts Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52 (ASC830), “Foreign Currency Translation”, using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses and historical rates for the equity. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the cumulative translation adjustment of $1,063 and $448, respectively, was classified as an item of other comprehensive income in the stockholders’ deficit section of the consolidated balance sheet. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was $615 and $448, respectively.
7
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable to estimate the risk of extending credit to customers and distributors. The allowance is estimated based on the customer or distributor's compliance with our credit terms, the financial condition of the customer or distributor and collection history where applicable. Additional allowances could be required if the financial condition of our customers or distributors were to be impaired beyond our estimates. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $554,763 and $554,763 respectively.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Appropriate consideration is given to deterioration, obsolescence and other factors in evaluating net realizable value.
Property and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
Office equipment
|
5 years
|
Furniture and fixtures
|
5 years
|
Improvements to leased property are depreciated over the lesser of the life of the lease or the life of the improvements. Depreciation expense on assets acquired under capital leases is included with depreciation expense on owned assets. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had net property, plant and equipment in the amount of $23,649 and $35,033 respectively consisting of the following:

Maintenance and minor replacements are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on disposals are included in the results of operations.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (ASC 360), “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes the pronouncement “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144 (ASC 360), SFAS 144 (ASC 360), requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from our normal business activities. We place our cash in what we believe to be credit-worthy financial institutions. We have a diversified customer base. We control credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.
8
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin SAB 104 (ASC 605). Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured.
Advertising Expense
Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred and were immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109 (ASC 740), "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASI Holdings Ltd has significant income tax net operating losses carried forward from prior years. Due to the uncertainty of the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, a reserve equal to the amount of deferred income taxes has been established at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107 (ASC 825), “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for assets and liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Segment Reporting
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (ASC 280), “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. SFAS 131 (ASC 280) has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as the Company consists of one reportable business segment as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history and the volatility of public markets.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Our management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.
9
Stock-based compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation expense pursuant to SFAS 123R (ASC 718), "Share Based Payment.” SFAS 123R (ASC 718) requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee's requisite service period. Under SFAS 123R (ASC 718), the Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of Company’s stock or the expected volatility of similar entities. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on awards expected to vest, and there were no estimated forfeitures as the Company has a short history of issuing options. SFAS 123R (ASC 718) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods, if necessary, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Warranty and Customer Support
The Company typically warrants its products against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of shipment. A provision for estimated future warranty and customer support is recorded when products are shipped. The provision of,warranty and customer support as of December 2009 and 2008 was $276,362 and 0 respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events), which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. There was no material impact upon the adoption of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 860 (previously SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”) , which requires additional information regarding transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810 (previously SFAS No. 167) for determining whether to consolidate a variable interest entity. These amended standards eliminate a mandatory quantitative approach to determine whether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity in favor of a qualitatively focused analysis, and require an ongoing reassessment of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary. This Statement shall be effective for reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance which is now part of ASC 105-10, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (ASC 105-10) (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168), establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. ASC 105-10 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 105-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-05, which amends ASC Topic 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. These amended standards clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, we are required to use the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets. If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use another valuation technique, such as an income approach or a market approach. These amended standards are effective from October 1, 2009, and do not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic 820 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. The FASB’s objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. This pronouncement is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
10
In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition that will become effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2010, with earlier adoption permitted. Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Reclassifications:
For comparative purposes, the prior year’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with report classifications of the current year.
