Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Business Combinations Business Combinations
On February 17, 2022, we acquired substantially all of the net assets of Qterics, a U.S.-based provider of multimedia connectivity solutions and services for internet-enabled consumer products. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement ("APA"), we paid a cash purchase price of approximately $0.9 million. The acquisition of these assets will allow us to expand our customer base in the OEM market.

Our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2023 includes net sales of $2.1 million and net income of $16 thousand attributable to Qterics. Our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes net sales of $2.1 million and net income of $145 thousand attributable to Qterics for the period commencing on February 17, 2022.
In accordance with the terms of the APA, the initial purchase price was subject to adjustment for differences between the initial estimated working capital balances and the final adjusted balances. This calculation was completed at March 31, 2022.

Purchase Price Allocation

Using the acquisition method of accounting, the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Management's purchase price allocation as of December 31, 2023 was the following:

     Cash paid$939 
(1)Our consolidated goodwill balance was impaired during the year ended December 31, 2023. Please see Note 7 for further information.

Management's determination of the fair value of intangible assets acquired are based primarily on significant inputs not observable in an active market and thus represent Level 3 fair value measurements as defined under U.S. GAAP.

The fair value assigned to the Qterics developed technology and trade names intangible assets were determined utilizing a relief from royalty method. Under the relief from royalty method, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated to be the present value of the royalties saved because the company owns the intangible asset. Revenue projections and estimated useful life were significant inputs into estimating the value of the Qterics developed technology and trade names.

The fair value assigned to Qterics customer relationships intangible assets were determined utilizing a multi-period excess earnings approach. Under the multi-period excess earnings approach, the fair value of the intangible asset is estimated to be the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset and utilizes revenue and cost projections, including an assumed contributory asset charge.

The developed technology, trade names and customer relationships intangible assets are expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
