Previous report

The Company's share price has decreased since the end of its fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, and in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company recognized impairment of its intangible assets and goodwill. If the share price continues to decline and the decline is sustained, the Company may be required to test for goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment before the performance of its required annual testing and if so, may be at risk of recognizing additional expenses related to goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment.

Previous report

On September 29, 2023, the Company's share price was $7.62 and has since declined to a share price of $4.08 as of January 31, 2024. Under the accounting standard, ASC 350-20, Goodwill, a Company is required to test for impairment on an annual basis, but in the presence of a triggering event, may need to test during an interim period. Under ASC 350, Goodwill, a sustained decline in share price represents a triggering event which would require the Company to test for impairment. As of December 31, 2023, there was a decline in the Company’s share price, which resulted in its book value materially exceeding its market value. This triggering event indicated the Company should test the related long-lived assets for impairment in the Material and Substrate segment. As a result, expenses related to goodwill and intangible asset impairment was recognized.

Previous report

If the Company’s share price continues to decline, the Company may again be required to test goodwill and/or intangible assets for impairment. If the Company is required to perform this analysis, there may be a risk that the Company incurs additional expenses related to goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment.
