−Removed: Management exercises judgment in interpretation and application of complex tax law when determining the Company’s provision for income taxes.
−Removed: Evaluating management’s application of current tax regulations in various tax jurisdictions and the impact of those regulations on the Company’s foreign and United States federal income tax provisions required complex auditor judgment and the use of tax subject matter professionals with specialized skills.

−Removed: We have also evaluated the Company’s income tax disclosures included in Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements in relation to these matters.
+Added: We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls related to the Company’s process for evaluating inventory valuation inclusive of controls related to the development of and management’s review of the underlying data, including historical usage and the estimation of projected end-user demand.
+Added: We evaluated certain inventories for excess or obsolescence by testing key inputs, including historical usage and projected end-user demand, and by testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data supporting management’s inventory valuation assessment.
+Added: Specifically, we compared the Company’s projected end-user demand to historical sales and inventory usage.
+Added: We assessed historical trends of management’s estimates and performed analyses to evaluate management’s excess and obsolete inventory estimates and underlying assumptions.
+Added: We also performed a retrospective review of the prior year valuation assumptions, including inventory write-off history.
