NOTE 3 — GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

As of September 30, 2021, in connection with its acquisitions of 42West, The Door, Viewpoint, Shore Fire, Be Social and B/HI, the Company has a balance of $20,015,800 of goodwill on its condensed consolidated balance sheet which management has assigned to the entertainment publicity and marketing segment. The Company evaluates goodwill in the fourth quarter or more frequently if management believes indicators of impairment exist. Such indicators could include but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. There were no triggering events noted during the three month period ended September 30, 2021 that would require the Company to reassess goodwill for impairment outside of its regular annual impairment test.
