The Industrial Group performed an asset recoverability test for its fixed asset group totaling approximately $36,016,000 of carrying value as of September 28, 2014. The Company concluded that the undiscounted sum of estimated future cash flows exceeded the carrying value for such asset group, and accordingly, no impairment was recognized. Additionally, the Company received fair market value appraisals for the Industrial Group’s personal property from an independent third party during the third quarter of 2014, which exceeds the carrying value for the Industrial Group’s fixed asset group as of September 28, 2014.
