In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company recorded an impairment of $55 million relating to purchased software products within the Enterprise Solutions segment. This impairment was determined through the use of the discounted cash flow model and reflected lower expectations about future cash flows to be generated from these assets. The impairment was included in “Amortization of capitalized software costs” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for fiscal year 2013. Amortization of capitalized software costs was not included in segment expenses (see Note 17, “Segment and Geographic Information,” for additional information). No impairments for purchased software products were recorded during fiscal years 2014 or 2012.
During fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded impairments of approximately $7 million, $3 million and $9 million, respectively, for internally developed software products.
The Company evaluates the useful lives and recoverability of capitalized software and other intangible assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. These evaluations require complex assumptions about key factors such as future customer demand, technology trends and the impact of those factors on the technology the Company acquires and develops for its products. Impairments or revisions to useful lives could result from the use of alternative assumptions that reflect reasonably possible outcomes related to future customer demand or technology trends for assets within the Enterprise Solutions segment.
