Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired in businesses combinations. Under ASC 350, purchased goodwill is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment. The Company’s goodwill balance was $8,102 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. This goodwill resulted from the acquisitions of Mobilisa, Inc. and Positive Access Corporation.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company performed its annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter. Under authoritative guidance, the Company can use industry and Company specific qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that impairment exists before performing step one of the quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. Events or changes in circumstances which could trigger an impairment review include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, other entity specific events and sustained decrease in share price.

The Company performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the Company to its carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value was determined using the weighting of certain valuation techniques, including both income and market approaches which include a discounted cash flow analysis, an analysis of similar public company financial information, and an analysis of market transactions. Although the Company believes that the factors considered in the impairment analysis are reasonable, changes in any one of the assumptions used could have produced a different result which may have led to an impairment charge. Any future impairment loss could have a material adverse effect on our long-term assets and operating expenses in the period in which impairment is determined to exist.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company determined that the fair value of the Company was greater than its carrying amount and therefore the second step of the goodwill impairment test was not required.
