The Company periodically reviews goodwill for impairment in accordance with relevant accounting standards. Goodwill is attributable to the NanoSynex Acquisition. Goodwill and intangible assets are recognized at fair value during the period in which an acquisition is completed, from updated estimates during the measurement period, or when they are considered to be impaired. These non-recurring fair value measurements, primarily for goodwill and intangible assets acquired, were based on Level 3 inputs. The Company estimates the fair value of long-lived assets on a non-recurring basis based on a market valuation approach, engaging independent valuation experts to assist in the determination of fair value. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, in conjunction with the annual impairment assessment, the Company determined that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value. In addition to continued losses in the reporting unit, the Company considered macroeconomic conditions including a deterioration in the equity markets evidenced by sustained declines in the Company’s stock price, peer companies, and major market indices since the acquisition date. The Company engaged independent valuation experts to assist in determining the fair value of the reporting unit. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded a $4,239,000 goodwill and fixed asset impairment charge associated with the reporting unit for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. There were no impairment losses during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
