As discussed in Note 1, effective January 1, 2017 the Company follows the guidance in ASU 2017-01, which provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. The Company has determined that its transaction with Ellipse in the first quarter of 2017 is considered to be an acquisition of a single asset, therefore, the acquisition is not considered to be an acquisition of a business. The distribution rights asset had been assigned a value of $900 which was comprised of the present value of the license fee payments. Effective August 2017 the transaction was terminated and a new agreement was negotiated among the parties. See Note 1 for further details regarding these agreements. As a result of the termination of the old agreement and the signing of the new agreements the Company reversed the intangible asset and corresponding liability recorded on March 1, 2017 and recorded the distribution rights at the present value of the payments under the new agreements, amounting to $286. The reversal of the aforementioned intangible asset and corresponding liability resulted in a $40 gain, recognized in sales and marketing expense.
