NOTE 7 – ACQUISITION, GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

On December 18, 2019, the Company entered into a merger agreement with TiVo in an all-stock merger of equals transaction. See “Note 1 – The Company and Basis of Presentation.

The Company's reporting units include the Product Licensing segment and the Semiconductor and IP Licensing segment. Of the carrying value of goodwill, approximately $378.1 million was allocated to the Product Licensing segment and approximately $7.7 million was allocated to the Semiconductor and IP Licensing segment as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

During the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly spread globally and has created unprecedented disruptions in economic activity and financial markets. Due to resulting changes in macroeconomic conditions, industry outlook, and a meaningful decline in the Company’s share price, indicators of potential goodwill impairment were identified. The Company proceeded with a quantitative interim goodwill impairment test as of March 31, 2020. Based on the quantitative assessment, the Company concluded that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded the carrying amount for both Product Licensing and Semiconductor and IP Licensing. As a result, no goodwill impairment charges were recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2020.
