___________________________


⁽¹⁾	The identifiable intangible assets associated with the Schonstedt acquisition consist of customer relationships and technology of $0.8 and $8.3, respectively, with such amounts based on a preliminary assessment of the related fair values.


⁽²⁾	Changes during the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to the acquisition of the Schonstedt trademarks of $1.8, with such amount based on a preliminary assessment of the related fair value, and the impact of foreign currency translation.

In connection with the acquisition of Schonstedt, which had definite lived intangibles as noted above, we updated our estimated annual amortization expense related to intangible assets to $1.0 for full year 2018, and $1.1 for each of the five years thereafter.

At March 31, 2018, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of $3.6 in the HVAC reportable segment, $9.1 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment and $1.5 in the Engineered Solutions reportable segment. At March 31, 2018, trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of $89.8 in the HVAC reportable segment, $12.4 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment and $12.4 in the Engineered Solutions reportable segment.

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 indication 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 (fair value based on unobservable inputs - Level 3, as defined in Note 16). The primary basis for these projected revenues is the annual operating plan for each of the related businesses, which is prepared in the fourth quarter of each year.
