Evaluation of the realizability of long-lived assets - In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC
360”), we evaluate the realizability of long-lived assets, which primarily consists of property and equipment and definite
lived intangible assets (the “ASC 360 Long-Lived Assets”), when events or business conditions warrant it, as well as
whenever an interim goodwill impairment test is required under ASC 350. ASC 350 requires that the ASC 360 impairment
test be completed, and any ASC 360 impairment be recorded, prior to performing the goodwill impairment test. Due to
the continued decline in operating results of the AVC subsidiaries, we performed an interim test for the impairment of
long-lived assets.
The evaluation of the impairment of long-lived assets, other than goodwill, is based on expectations of non-discounted
future cash flows compared to the carrying value of the long-lived asset groups. If the sum of the expected non-discounted
future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the ASC 360 Long-Lived Assets, we would recognize an impairment
loss if the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value. Our cash flow estimates are based upon future projected
cash flows and, if appropriate, include assumed proceeds upon sale of the asset group at the end of the cash flow period.
We believe that our procedures for estimating gross future cash flows, including the estimated sales proceeds, are reasonable
and consistent with current market conditions for each of the dates when impairment testing has been performed
