In conjunction with a business review performed in the Publishing segment associated with the restructuring activities discussed above, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we identified an indefinite lived brand with forecasted cash flows that did not support its carrying value. As a result, an impairment charge of $3.6 million was recorded in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 to reduce the carrying value of the brand to its fair value of $1.2 million, which is being amortized over an estimated useful life of 5 years. This impairment charge was included in Operating and Administrative Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for fiscal year 2018.
