INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULE
CREDIT SUISSE (USA), INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2006
Significant Accounting Policies
Share-based compensation. In August 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS 123”), using the prospective method. Under the prospective method, the Company recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period for all share option and share awards granted under the Credit Suisse Group International Share Plan (the “Share Plan”) for services provided after January 1, 2003. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company early adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) using the modified prospective method and recorded an after-tax gain of $6 million in the consolidated statements of income as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle to reverse the expense previously recognized on all outstanding unvested awards that are expected to be forfeited. For additional information on share-based compensation, see “Recently Adopted Accounting Standards —Share-based Compensation” and Note 14.
