Asset Impairment Charges |
5. | ASSET IMPAIRMENT CHARGES
In connection with our annual test of potential impairment of indefinite lived intangible assets, in 2015 we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $1.2 million. No such charges were recorded in 2017 or 2016. A trade name intangible asset was acquired in connection with our Composite Fibers business unit’s 2013 Dresden acquisition. The charge was due to changes in the estimated fair value of the trade name, primarily driven by lower forecasted revenues associated with the business, an increase in discount rates related to Dresden’s business in Russia and Ukraine and this region’s political and economic instability. The fair value of the asset was estimated using a discounted cash flow model under a relief from royalty method. The significant assumptions used included projected financial performance and discount rates, which resulted in a Level 3 fair value classification. The charge is recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of income under the caption “Selling, general and administrative expenses.” For additional information on Goodwill and Intangible Assets, see Note 13.
