5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

As a result of the Merger (Note 2), the Company recorded goodwill of $1,838,309. The Company conducts an impairment test of goodwill on an annual basis as of October 31 of each year. The Company also conduct tests if events occur or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the Company below its carrying value. No such triggering events were identified during the period from the date of the Merger to September 30, 2013 and therefore no impairment loss was recognized as of September 30, 2013.

Intangible Assets

The components of net intangible assets are as follows:

	September 30, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Gross Carrying		Accumulated		Gross Carrying		Accumulated		Amortization
	Amount		Amortization		Amount		Amortization		Period
Acquired ANDA intangible asset	$	60,000	$	-	$	60,000	$	-	3 years
Reglan ® intangible asset		100,000		(100,000)		100,000		(75,000)	2 years
Teva license intangible asset		10,900,000		(247,727)		-		-	11 years
	$	11,060,000	$	(347,727)	$	160,000	$	(75,000)

Intangible assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, net of amortization using the straight line method over the expected useful lives of the product rights, once the related products begin to sell. Amortization expense was $247,727 and $12,500 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense was $272,727 and $37,500 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Company tests for impairment of definite-lived intangible assets when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. No such triggering events were identified during the period from the date of the Merger to September 30, 2013 and therefore no impairment loss was recognized as of September 30, 2013.

Expected future amortization expense is as follows:

2013 (remainder of year)	$	247,728
2014		997,577
2015		1,010,910
2016		1,010,910
2017		1,004,243
2018 and thereafter		6,440,905
Total	$	10,712,273
