We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process, with such testing based primarily on events and circumstances existing as of the end of the third quarter. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indication of impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indications may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate; unanticipated competition; and a more likely than not expectation of selling or disposing all, or a portion, of a reporting unit.

We perform our annual trademarks impairment testing during the fourth quarter or on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. The fair values of our trademarks are determined by applying estimated royalty rates to projected revenues, with the resulting cash flows discounted at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions.

No impairment charges were recorded in the first nine months of 2014. In the first quarter of 2013, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.0 related to the trademarks of Clyde Union. Other changes in the gross carrying value of trademarks and other identifiable intangible assets relate primarily to foreign currency translation.
