As discussed further in the Business Overview, COVID-19 has adversely impacted the economy as a whole. Based on the current macro economic conditions, we assessed our goodwill, franchise value and long-lived assets for indications of impairment. We elected to perform a qualitative assessment as of March 31, 2020 and determined there were no indicators that it is more likely than not that goodwill, franchise value, or long-lived asset impairments exist. As such, no impairments were recognized in the first quarter of 2020. We will continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on store performance.
