The excess purchase price over the value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. During the measurement period, which can be no more than one year from the date of acquisition, the Company obtained information to determine the final fair value of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date.

The Company recorded goodwill related to the acquisition of $185,000 in fiscal 2019. Intangible assets associated with the acquisition is primarily attributable to the future technology, market presence and knowledgeable and experienced workforce. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired was determined using the income approach taking into account the Company’s consideration of a number of inputs, including an independent third-party analysis that was based upon estimates and assumptions provided by the Company. These estimates and assumptions were determined through established and generally accepted valuation techniques. The estimated fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired was allocated at SensiML’s acquisition date. Goodwill is not amortized for financial accounting purposes and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties between the Company and SensiML, who agreed to indemnify each other for certain breaches of representations, warranties, covenants and other specified matters. Approximately $200,000 in value of the Company’s common stock of the purchase price was placed in escrow as security for post-closing working capital adjustments, which expired on January 2, 2020.
