The Company performed its 2013 annual impairment tests for its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1, 2013. The test, which is required to be performed annually, involved the assessment of the fair market value of the Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets based on Level 2 observable inputs, using a discounted cash flow approach, assuming a discount rate of 12.5%-14.0% and an average annual growth rate of 2.0%-3.5%. The result of the assessment of the Company’s indefinite-lived intangibles indicated that the fair values exceeded the carrying values as of October 1, 2013. In addition, as of October 1, 2013 and December 31, 2013, the Company assessed the carrying value of its goodwill and determined based on qualitative factors that no impairment existed. During 2012, the Company’s home décor products line experienced a significant decline in sales. The Company believes the most significant factor was the reduction in retail space allocated to the category which has also contributed to pricing pressure. While the Company believes this market condition is not permanent, following a strategic review of the business, it has decided to re-brand a portion of the home décor products under the Mikasa® and Pfaltzgraff® trade names. As a result of these factors, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million in its statement of operations in the third quarter of 2012 which reduced the book value of its Elements® trade name. A summary of the activities related to the Company’s intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2013 consists of the following (in thousands):
