2020 Analysis

In accordance with ASC 350 - Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company is required to evaluate goodwill for possible impairment testing if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the fair value of the reporting entity may be below its carrying amount. The spread of COVID-19 and the precautionary measures instituted by governments and businesses to mitigate the risk of its spread have contributed to the general slowdown in the global economy and significant volatility in financial markets, which resulted in a significant decrease in the Company's stock price and market capitalization in the first quarter. As COVID-19 continued to impact the organization throughout 2020 and the Company’s stock price remained at a similar level, management assessed each reporting unit for triggering events for potential impairment on a quarterly basis.

2020 Analysis - continued

As part of management's evaluation of triggering events in the third quarter of 2020, the assessment of the Company's operating results identified a decline in earnings compared to forecasts used in prior periods for its Aerosystems reporting unit. The Company considered this decline, as well as the updated forecasts for the reporting unit, which indicated the forecasted cash flows for this reporting unit were lower than amounts previously forecasted. As a result, management identified a triggering event for possible goodwill impairment in its Aerosystems reporting unit. Management performed a quantitative analysis on the Aerosystems reporting unit using an income methodology based on management's estimates of forecasted cash flows, with those cash flows discounted to present value using rates commensurate with the risks associated with those cash flows. In addition, management used a market-based valuation method involving analysis of market multiples of revenues and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for (i) a group of comparable companies and (ii) recent transactions, if any, involving comparable companies. In estimating the fair value of the reporting unit, a weighting of 80% to the income approach and 20% to the market-based valuation method was selected, consistent with quantitative analyses performed in prior periods. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit was adjusted based on an assumption of excess working capital, which represents management's identification of specific contract-related assets that will generate cash flows in the future. The quantitative analysis resulted in a conclusion that the fair value of the Aerosystems reporting unit was $56.1 million below its carrying value; therefore, goodwill was impaired. In the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $50.3 million for the Aerosystems reporting unit, which represented the entire goodwill balance for the reporting unit. This impairment charge was included in goodwill and other intangibles impairment on the Company's Statement of Operations.

Upon completion of the annual 2020 qualitative assessment of events and circumstances affecting recorded goodwill as described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company concluded that a quantitative assessment should be performed on the Bal Seal reporting unit. The Company also elected to perform a quantitative assessment on its Specialty Bearings and Engineered Products reporting unit. A qualitative assessment was performed on the KPP-Orlando reporting unit.

The qualitative assessment performed for KPP-Orlando took into consideration the following factors: general economic conditions, industry specific performance, changes in carrying values of the reporting unit, the assessments of assumptions used in the previous fair value calculation and changes in transaction multiples. The results of this analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired and this reporting unit did not need to proceed to a quantitative assessment.

A quantitative assessment was performed for the Specialty Bearings and Engineered Products and Bal Seal reporting units. The results of these analyses indicated that the fair values of the reporting units exceeded the respective carrying values. The Company performed a sensitivity analysis relative to the discount rates and growth rates selected and determined a decrease of one percentage point in the terminal growth rate or an increase of one percentage point in the discount rate would not result in a fair value calculation less than the carrying value for each reporting unit.

2019 Analysis

In accordance with ASC 350, the Company evaluates goodwill for possible impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company elected to perform a Step 1 analysis on the Aerosystems, Specialty Bearings and Engineered Products and KPP - Orlando reporting units. The results of the Step 1 analyses indicated that the Company did not need to proceed to Step 2, as the fair values of the reporting units exceeded the respective carrying values. The Company performed a sensitivity analysis relative to the discount rates and growth rates selected and determined a decrease of one percentage point in the terminal growth rates or an increase of one percentage point in the discount rates would not result in a fair value calculation less than the carrying value for each reporting unit.

The increase in the other intangible assets, net balance at December 31, 2020, as compared to December 31, 2019, was attributable to the acquisition of Bal Seal, partially offset by amortization. Intangible asset amortization expense was $15.7 million, $4.5 million and $7.0 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Refer to Note 3, Business Combinations, for further information on this acquisition.

In accordance with ASC 360 - Property, Plant, and Equipment ("ASC 360"), the Company is required to evaluate long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. In 2018, management identified a triggering event for possible impairment at a certain asset group in its U.K. business based on a review of its historical performance, the current forecast for the remainder of the year and the loss of future orders from one of its significant customers, requiring the Company to evaluate the intangible assets for impairment. The Company performed a recoverability test as defined under ASC 360 by comparing the undiscounted cash flows of the asset group to its carrying value. The estimated undiscounted cash flows of the business did not exceed the carrying value of the assets. Based on these results, the Company calculated the fair value of the asset group, using an income approach based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to present value using a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the asset group's weighted average cost of capital. This calculation resulted in a write-off of $10.0 million for a certain asset group at the UK business, which was included in goodwill and other intangible assets impairment on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Other intangible assets, gross, and accumulated amortization decreased by $21.0 million and $11.0 million, respectively, as a result of the $10.0 million impairment of customer lists/relationships at the asset group within the Company's UK business incurred in the year ended December 31, 2018. At December 31, 2020, the remaining assets of the UK Composites business were considered impaired as the estimated fair value of the business based on the anticipated sale was lower than the estimated carrying value of the UK Composites business. Refer to Note 2, Discontinued Operations and Liabilities Held for Sale, for further information on the anticipated sale and the impairment charge recorded in the year ended December 31, 2020. No such triggering events were identified in the year ended December 31, 2019.

Estimated amortization expense for the next five years associated with intangible assets existing as of December 31, 2020 is as follows:

2021$10,341 
2022$9,870

In order to determine the useful life of acquired intangible assets, the Company considers numerous factors, most importantly the industry considerations associated with the acquired entities. The Company determines the amortization period for acquired intangible assets, such as customer relationships, based primarily on an analysis of their historical customer sales attrition information and the period over which the assets are expected to deliver meaningful cash flow generation in support of the fair value of the asset.
