GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
As discussed in Note
1
-
13,
ASC
350
requires that goodwill
not
be amortized but instead be tested at least annually for impairment, or more frequently when events or change in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired, by comparing the carrying value to the fair value of the reporting unit to which they are assigned. The Company considers its ASC
280
operating segment — High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and Urology Devices and Services (UDS) — to be its reporting units for purposes of testing for impairment. Goodwill amounts to
€1,767
thousand for the UDS division and to
€645
thousand for the HIFU division, at
December 31, 2019
and
2018.
 
The Company completed the required annual impairment test in the
fourth
quarter of
2019.
To determine the fair value of the Company’s reporting units, the Company used the discounted cash flow approach for each of the
two
reportable units. In both cases, the fair value of the reporting unit was in excess of the reporting unit's book value, which resulted in
no
goodwill impairment.
