Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired in an acquisition that are not individually identified and separately recognized. The composition of, and changes in goodwill, consist of:

 

  Date  Acquisition  Goodwill
 January 2020   Rotor Riot  $1,849,073 
 November 2020   Fat Shark   6,168,260 
 May 2021   Skypersonic   2,826,918 
 August 2021   Teal Drones   8,995,499 
 April 2023 - Impairment loss   Skypersonic   (2,826,918)
 Balance at April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2023      $17,012,832 

 

Following the establishment of the Enterprise and Consumer segments, management evaluated the long-term business strategy of each segment. This resulted in the Enterprise segment narrowing its focus on the military and other government agencies. It was determined that Skypersonic's technology would be re-focused for the near term on military applications and consolidated into the operations of Teal Drones. The Company completes a formal evaluation of the carrying value of its intangible assets, including goodwill, at the end of each fiscal year. Based on (i) the operating results for Skypersonic since its acquisition in May 2021, (ii) its consolidation into Teal, (iii) our current expectations of its future business conditions and trends, including its projected revenues, expenses, and cash flows, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $2,826,918 in April 2023.
