+Added: Refer to Note 7 to the Financial Statements
+Added: Audit Matter Description
+Added: Company operates as a single reportable segment, operating segment and reporting unit.
+Added: The Company’s evaluation of goodwill
+Added: for impairment involves comparing the book value of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value.
+Added: The Company’s determination
+Added: of estimated fair value of the reporting unit is based primarily on a discounted cash flow model utilizing the income approach.
+Added: The Company used the discounted cash flow model to estimate fair value which requires management to make significant estimates
+Added: and assumptions related to the valuation of the reporting unit, including assumptions regarding discount rates, forecasts of future
+Added: revenue and operating margins, and the long-term growth rate.
+Added: Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on
+Added: either the fair value of the reporting unit, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both.
+Added: During the quarter ended March
+Added: 31, 2020, management identified indicators of potential impairment of goodwill related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
+Added: on the Company’s business.
+Added: As a result, management performed an interim assessment of potential impairment.
+Added: Consequently,
+Added: the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $10.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2020, reducing the
+Added: recorded goodwill balance to approximately $7.5 million.
+Added: The Company’s annual impairment assessment date is September 30.
+Added: Accordingly, management performed an additional impairment assessment as of September 30, 2020.
+Added: The estimated fair value of the
+Added: reporting unit exceeded the carrying value as of September 30, 2020 and, therefore, no additional impairment was recognized.
+Added: identified the valuation of goodwill as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management
+Added: made to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit and the highly sensitive nature of Company’s operations to changes
+Added: This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our
+Added: fair value specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions.
+Added: the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
+Added: audit procedures related to the forecasts of future revenues and operating margins, and the selection of the long-term growth
+Added: rate and discount rate for the reporting unit included the following, among others:
+Added: both the March 31, 2020 interim assessment and the September 30, 2020 annual assessment, we evaluated the reasonableness of management’s
+Added: forecasts of revenue and operating margins by comparing the forecasts to (1) historical revenues and operating margins, (2) internal
+Added: communications to management and the Board of Directors, and (3) forecasted information included in analyst reports for the industry
+Added: and certain of its peer companies.
+Added: ● Specifically,
+Added: for the September 30, 2020 annual impairment assessment, we compared the Company’s actual performance to the forecasted
+Added: revenue and operating margin from the March 31, 2020 interim assessment and evaluated the impact of any changes in management’s
+Added: forecast from the March to September assessments.
+Added: evaluated the impact of any changes in management’s forecasted revenue and operating margin from the September 30, 2020

+Added: This exhibit shall not be deemed “filed”
+Added: for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Compared sentence by sentence after normalising whitespace, quotation marks, case and digits, so re-formatting and restated figures do not read as changed language. Wording changes appear as one removal and one addition. The current filing and the prior one are authoritative.
