At September 28, 2013, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives were $437.4 in the Flow Technology reportable segment, $48.5 in the Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment and $7.1 in Industrial Products and Services and Other. At September 28, 2013, trademarks with indefinite lives were $289.3 in the Flow Technology reportable segment, $126.2 in the Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment and $18.7 in Industrial Products and Services and Other.

We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indication of impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indications may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate; unanticipated competition; and a more likely than not expectation of selling or disposing all, or a portion, of a reporting unit.

In connection with our goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2012, we estimated that the fair value of our Clyde Union reporting unit was approximately 2% higher than the carrying value of its net assets. Clyde Union’s ability to recover its goodwill is highly dependent on the level of future orders and a continuous improvement in profitability. Order rates for the first nine months of 2013 generally have been consistent with the related assumptions included in the business’s 2012 annual goodwill impairment analysis and order rates for the foreseeable future are expected to remain at current levels or improve as the oil and gas end-markets served by Clyde Union remain strong. Clyde Union’s profitability for each of the first three quarters of 2013 has improved sequentially, with further improvement expected in the fourth quarter of 2013 and into 2014 and the years thereafter, primarily as a result of improvements in project selection and execution as well as cost reductions associated with the restructuring actions undertaken in 2012 and 2013. As such, we believe that the financial forecasts included in Clyde Union’s 2012 annual goodwill impairment analysis remain achievable and, thus, conclude that there have been no events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of Clyde Union below the carrying value of its net assets. Clyde Union’s goodwill totaled approximately $387.0 at September 28, 2013.

In the first quarter of 2013, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.0 related to the trademarks of Clyde Union. Other changes in the gross carrying values of identifiable intangible assets relate primarily to foreign currency translation.

Also discloses (a) for amortizable intangibles assets in total and by major class, the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization, the total amortization expense for the period, and the estimated aggregate amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years, (b) for intangible assets not subject to amortization the carrying amount in total and by major class, and (c) for goodwill, in total and for each reportable segment, the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill during the period (including the aggregate amount of goodwill acquired, the aggregate amount of impairment losses recognized, and the amount of goodwill included in the gain (loss) on disposal of a reporting unit). If any part of goodwill has not been allocated to a reportable segment, discloses the unallocated amount and the reasons for not allocating. For each impairment loss recognized related to an intangible asset (excluding goodwill), discloses: (a) a description of the impaired intangible asset and the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method for determining fair value, (c) the caption in the income statement or the statement of activities in which the impairment loss is aggregated, and (d) the segment in which the impaired intangible asset is reported. For each goodwill impairment loss recognized, discloses: (a) a description of the facts and circumstances leading to the impairment, (b) the amount of the impairment loss and the method of determining the fair value of the associated reporting unit, and (c) if a recognized impairment loss is an estimate not finalized and the reasons why the estimate is not final.
