The Company performs a goodwill impairment assessment on at least an annual basis. The Company conducts its annual goodwill impairment assessment during the fourth quarter, or more frequently, if indicators of impairment exist. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company assessed whether any such indicators of impairment existed and concluded there were none.

During the Company’s annual impairment testing as of December 1, 2019, the Company identified triggering events that could lead to impairment of goodwill for the Digital Consulting reporting unit, including lower revenues and profits than had been anticipated over the past two years. The carrying value of Digital Consulting was $39.7 million at December 1, 2019, including approximately $24.3 million of goodwill. Based on the Company’s assessment, the estimated fair value of the Digital Consulting reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 26%, but based on additional sensitivity analysis, the amount of cushion could fall to 0% or below if the performance of the business does not improve as expected. The estimate of fair value was based on generally accepted valuation techniques and information available at the date of the assessment, which incorporated management’s assumptions about expected revenues and future cash flows and available market information for comparable companies.

Other Intangible Assets

During the second quarter of 2019, the Company identified negative indicators such as lower financial performance for the rogenSi component of the TTEC Digital segment, thus an interim impairment analysis was completed. The long-lived assets reviewed for impairment consisted of the customer relationship intangible, intellectual property, and right of use assets. The Company completed an asset group recoverability evaluation based on the current estimated cash flow based on forecasted revenues and operating income using significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3 inputs). Based on this calculation, the Company recorded an impairment expense of $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019, which was included in Impairment losses in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). As part of the $2.0 million impairment $0.4 million was assigned to the customer relationship intangible asset and $0.2 million to the IP intangible asset. At December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, the Company reviewed the evaluation completed as of June 30, 2019, and noted no material changes, thus no additional impairment was required.
