|  | Energy & Security Sonar Solutions segment |  |  | Smart Grid Distribution Automation segment |  |  | Total |
Balance at December 31, 2013 |  | $ | 581 |  |  | $ | 2,446 |  |  | $ | 3,027 |

As required, the Company performs an annual impairment test of recorded goodwill (during the fourth quarter of each year), or more frequently if impairment indicators or triggering events are present. In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance that simplified how entities test for goodwill impairment. This guidance permits entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a two-step goodwill impairment test. In the fourth quarter of 2014, as a result of the annual impairment test of the goodwill with respect to the Company’s Smart Grid Distribution Automation (GridSense) reporting unit, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $1,773. The impairment test was based upon expected discounted cash flows from the Company’s GridSense reporting unit. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company determined that the goodwill associated with its Smart Grid Distribution Automation segment (GridSense) was fully impaired as a result of below-projected revenues and recorded an impairment charge of $513. (b) Intangibles The changes in the carrying amounts of intangible assets and associated accumulated amortization from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2015 were as follows:
|  | Energy & Security Sonar Solutions segment |  |  | Smart Grid Distribution Automation segment |  |  |  |
|  | Cost |  |  | A.A.* |  |  | Cost |  |  | A.A.* |  |  | Total |
Balance as of December 31, 2013 |  | $ | 572 |  |  | $ | (482 | ) |  | $ | 2,271 |  |  | $ | (811 | ) |  | $ | 1,550 |

* Accumulated amortization The composition of intangibles in each of the Company's segments were as follows:
| Segment |  | Type of Intangible
| Energy & Security Sonar Solutions |  | Naval technologies
| GridSense |  | Software and customer relationships
In the second quarter of 2015, the Company’s Smart Grid Distribution Automation segment recorded an impairment charge of $337 representing an impairment of certain technologies and the value of customer relationships and trade name associated with GridSense’s historic operations in Australia. The impairment charge followed declining second quarter 2015 revenue and expected future revenues in Australia through GridSense’s distributor relationship in Australia. In the third quarter of 2015, the Company’s Smart Grid Distribution Automation segment recorded an additional impairment charge of $712 representing an impairment of the value associated with the remaining technologies of GridSense associated with its historic operations in Australia and that of the technologies in the U.S., as well as the value of customer relationships and trade name associated with GridSense’s operations in the U.S. The impairment charge followed a continuing decline in third quarter 2015 revenue. Amortization in respect of intangible assets amounted to $282 and $123 for 2014 and 2015.

If any part of goodwill has not been allocated to a reportable segment, discloses the unallocated amount and the reasons for not allocating. For each impairment loss recognized related to an intangible asset (excluding goodwill), discloses: (a) a description of the impaired intangible asset and the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method for determining fair value, (c) the caption in the income statement or the statement of activities in which the impairment loss is aggregated, and (d) the segment in which the impaired intangible asset is reported. For each goodwill impairment loss recognized, discloses: (a) a description of the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method of determining the fair value of the associated reporting unit, and (c) if a recognized impairment loss is an estimate not finalized and the reasons why the estimate is not final. May also disclose the nature and amount of any significant adjustments made to a previous estimate of an impairment loss. + References Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 30 -Section 50 -Paragraph 3 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=26713463&loc=d3e16373-109275 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 30 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=26713463&loc=d3e16265-109275 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 30 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=26713463&loc=d3e16323-109275 Reference 4: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 20 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=35741047&loc=d3e13816-109267 Reference 5: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 350 -SubTopic 20 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=35741047&loc=d3e13854-109267 + Details
