Goodwill And Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets | 9. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill, all of which relates to our acquisition of Bluesocket, Inc., was $3.5 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, of which $3.1 million and $0.4 million is allocated to our Network Solutions and Services & Support reportable segments, respectively. We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. We have elected to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step impairment test. If we determine that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test will be performed. Based on the results of our qualitative assessment in 2016, we concluded that it was not necessary to perform the two-step impairment test. There have been no impairment losses recognized since the acquisition in 2011. Intangible assets are included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and include intangibles acquired in conjunction with our acquisitions of Objectworld Communications Corporation on September 15, 2009, Bluesocket, Inc. on August 4, 2011, the NSN BBA business on May 4, 2012, and CommScope’s active fiber access business on September 13, 2016. The following table presents our intangible assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:
