Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Intangible Assets and Goodwill | In connection with the March 6, 2014 Participation Agreement (see Note 3) recognizing Ronco as a Variable Interest Entity, we recognized certain identifiable intangibles, other than goodwill, totaling $3,700,000 as well as goodwill totaling $15,963,074. Identifiable intangibles other than goodwill consists of patents of $2,000,000 with a weighted average amortization period of nine years, and trademarks of $1,700,000, which are not subject to amortization. In addition, in connection with the Merger Agreement completed April 2, 2014 (see Note 4), we recognized certain identifiable intangibles other than goodwill. Identifiable intangibles other than goodwill consists of eDiets’ customer relationships of $1,200,000, eDiets’ domain names of $1,100,000, and eDiets’ trade names of $850,000, which are being amortized over a weighted-average period of five years. In addition, we recognized the Company’s asseenontv.com website of $3,000,000 and goodwill of $3,214,097, both are not subject to amortization. The website was subsequently sold following the period covered by this report. See note 18. The fair values assigned to the intangible assets recognized in these transactions were based on estimates of our management. On September 30, 2014, the Company recognized an impairment loss on goodwill and other intangible assets of approximately $19,177,000 and $2,793,000, respectively. The Company determined that significant qualitative conditions existed on September 30, 2014 to warrant an impairment test as of that date, rather than waiting 12 months from the date goodwill was recognized to do an annual test. The following are the conditions that led to that determination:
| · | Poor overall financial performance of each reporting unit
| · | The Company was in technical default on Senior Secured Debt
| · | Insufficient working capital
| · | Decreased share price
The Company recognized an impairment loss on goodwill and other intangible assets of approximately $19,177,000 and $2,793,000, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. Goodwill was fully impaired and other intangible assets were partially impaired. See below table for the impairment loss recognized on other intangible assets. The following table summarizes our intangible assets at September 30, 2014.
