Impairment Losses

During each of the periods presented, the Company evaluated the annual recoverability of its leasehold improvement assets at certain customer engagement centers. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of its asset group are estimated to be less than the asset group’s carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. To determine fair value, the Company used Level 3 inputs in its discounted cash flows analysis. Assumptions included the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized impairment losses related to leasehold improvement assets and right of use lease assets of $1.1 million and $2.6 million, respectively, across the TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage segments. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized impairment losses related to leasehold improvement assets of zero and $1.1 million, respectively, in its TTEC Engage segment.
