Goodwill And Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Note 8 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net

Goodwill

Goodwill was $1.426 billion at March 31, 2016 compared with $1.287 billion at June 30, 2015. The increase in goodwill in the nine months ended March 31, 2016 versus June 30, 2015 was primarily associated with the following: increases of $69.7 million, $60.9 million and $18.9 million in connection with the acquisitions of Symphony Teleca Corporation (“STC”), TowerSec Ltd. (“TowerSec”) and Red Bend Ltd. (“Redbend”), respectively, and decreases of $4.3 million, $3.7 million and $0.2 million in connection with the acquisitions of I.P.S.G International Product Solution Group Pty Ltd. and VFX Systems Pty Ltd. (collectively “IPSG/VFX”), certain assets and liabilities of Verto Medical Solutions LLC d/b/a/ yurbuds and Yurbuds UK Limited (collectively, “yurbuds”) and certain automotive assets and liabilities of Bang & Olufsen A/S (“B&O”), respectively, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.3 million.

As more fully discussed in Note 18 – Business Segment Data, we revised our segment and reporting unit structure effective July 1, 2015. Under this new structure, our former Infotainment segment is now known as Connected Car, our former Lifestyle segment is now known as Lifestyle Audio, our former Professional segment is now known as Professional Solutions and our former Services segment is now known as Connected Services. Our Connected Services segment includes STC, as previously reported, and also now includes Redbend and our automotive services businesses. Redbend had previously been included within Other. Our automotive services businesses had previously been included within our Infotainment and Lifestyle segments. Other includes compensation, benefits and occupancy costs for corporate employees, net of reporting segment allocations, as well as expenses associated with new technology innovation and our corporate brand identity campaign. Our reporting units are the same as our reportable segments with the exception of Lifestyle Audio, which consists of two reporting units, automotive audio and consumer audio. In connection with this realignment, we reallocated our goodwill to our new reporting units based on each reporting unit’s relative fair value. We also performed a goodwill impairment test as of July 1, 2015 using our new reporting units. We determined that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded its carrying value and, as such, no impairments were deemed to exist as of this date.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by business segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 were as follows:

	Connected Car			Lifestyle Audio			Professional Solutions			Connected Services			Other			Total
Balance, June 30, 2015	$	24,422		$	159,088		$	387,861		$	529,367		$	186,442		$	1,287,180

⁽¹⁾	The realignment adjustments reallocate our goodwill based on our new reporting structure based on the relative fair value of each reporting unit.

⁽²⁾	Refer to Note 22—Acquisitions for more information.

⁽³⁾	The other adjustments to goodwill primarily consist of foreign currency translation adjustments.

We did not recognize any goodwill impairment charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The contingent purchase price associated with the acquisition of innovative Systems GmbH (“IS”) is calculated pursuant to the terms of an agreement between the parties. Certain terms of the agreement are currently subject to a dispute between the parties and the matter has been submitted to arbitration. On November 5, 2013, the arbitration panel issued a partial award on some of the disputed matters covering the period from February 2009 through January 2012 awarding €16.3 million to the IS sellers. We contested the enforcement of the partial award. In July 2014, the partial award was upheld. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, we paid the €16.3 million partial award. Until such time as the other disputed matters are resolved, we cannot calculate the contingent purchase price related to these other disputed matters.
