Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recovery of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable. For the three month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company evaluated the long-lived assets associated with Heritage Labs and Hooper Holmes Services in connection with the anticipated sale of certain assets under the Alliance Agreement with CRL. The Company concluded these long-lived assets were not impaired. There were no impairment charges recorded for these assets in continuing operations during the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.
