During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, as part of the annual goodwill and intangible assets impairment analysis, the Company assessed the value of the indefinite-lived trade name related to previous acquisitions and determined that the value of the Hanley Companies trade name had been impaired during that year. The Company discontinued the use of that trade name, which impaired the value of the previously recorded intangible asset.
The Company recorded impairment loss for the trade name of $0.1 million, in ‘bad debts and impairments’ on the consolidated income statements, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The Hanley Companies trade name was recorded in the Commercial Hedging segment.
