Previous report
Goodwill impairment testing involves management judgment, requiring an assessment of whether the carrying value of the reporting unit can be supported by its fair value. As a result of the significant decrease in the Company’s publicly quoted share price and market capitalization during the second quarter of 2022, the Company conducted additional testing of its goodwill, definite-lived intangibles, and other long-lived assets as of June 30, 2022. As a result of this review and additional testing, the Company did not identify an impairment to its definite-lived intangible assets or other long lived assets, but the Company did identify an impairment to goodwill resulting in recording a $16.3 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge for the three month period ended June 30, 2022.
Previous report
The Company performed its additional goodwill impairment test with support from an external consultant and estimated the fair value of its single reporting unit based on a combination of the income (estimates of future discounted cash flows) and the market approach (market multiples for similar companies). The income approach uses a discounted cash flow (DCF) method that utilizes the present value of cash flows to estimate fair value of our reporting unit. The future cash flows for the reporting unit were projected based upon our estimates of future revenue, operating income and other factors such as working capital and capital expenditures. As part of our DCF analysis, the Company projected revenue and operating profits, and assumed a long-term revenue growth rates in the terminal year. The market approach utilizes multiples of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to estimate the fair value of our reporting unit. The market multiples used for our single reporting unit were based on a group of comparable companies’ market multiples applied to the Company’s revenue and EBITDA.
Previous report
The Company performed its annual impairment assessment as of December 31, 2023, using the same external consultant as used in the previous impairment analyses. In connection with its annual budgeting and forecast process, the Company projected future cashflows based on existing business, projected new business as well considering modifications to the Company’s cost structure. The market approach utilizes multiples of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to estimate the fair value of our reporting unit. The market multiples used for our single reporting unit were based on a group of comparable companies’ market multiples applied to the Company’s revenue and EBITDA. The assessment did not result in any additional impairment of goodwill at December 31, 2023.

Our managed services solutions may require a combination of labor, third party products and services. Our managed services are generally not interdependent and our contract performance obligations are delivered consistently on a monthly basis.

In the event there are undelivered performance obligations our practice is to recognize the revenue when the performance obligation has been satisfied.

Cash provided by operating activities provides an indication of our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our recurring business activities.
