Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
−Removed: In accordance with ASC 350-30-65, “Intangibles
−Removed: - Goodwill and Others”, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances

−Removed: Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
−Removed: Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business;
−Removed: Significant negative industry or economic trends.
−Removed: When the Company determines that the carrying
−Removed: value of intangibles may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying
−Removed: value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge.
−Removed: The Company measures
−Removed: any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with
−Removed: the risk inherent in the current business model.
−Removed: Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment
−Removed: exists and in projecting cash flows.
+Added: The Company accounts for long-lived assets in
+Added: accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets.
+Added: accounting standard requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
+Added: the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
+Added: Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount
+Added: of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.
+Added: If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its
+Added: estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair
+Added: value of the asset.
+Added: Indefinite-lived intangible assets established
+Added: in connection with business combinations consist of the tradename.
+Added: The impairment test for identifiable indefinite-lived intangible assets
+Added: consists of a comparison of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value.

+Added: fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
+Added: The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible
+Added: assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other .
+Added: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase
+Added: price of an entity over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
+Added: ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other
+Added: intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the
+Added: fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value.
+Added: This guidance simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing
+Added: Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation.
+Added: The quantitative impairment test calculates
+Added: any goodwill impairment as the difference between the carrying amount of a reporting unit and its fair value, but not to exceed the carrying
+Added: amount of goodwill.
+Added: It is our practice, at a minimum, to perform a qualitative or quantitative goodwill impairment test in the fourth
+Added: quarter every year.
+Added: The Company has one reporting unit it evaluates during its impairment test.
+Added: As a result of the Optilan Liquidation as
+Added: described in Note 1, management determined that certain events and circumstances occurred that indicated that the carrying amount of

+Added: The qualitative assessment was primarily due to the customer contracts
+Added: held by Optilan (UK) Limited at March 31, 2023 and the associated revenue projections by the UK subsidiary that is subject to the potential
+Added: As such, the Company compared the fair value of the reporting unit to the carrying amounts and recorded an impairment loss
+Added: of $ 6,809,166 pertaining to impairment and goodwill in the consolidated statements of operations.
+Added: The Company recorded impairment of the
+Added: indefinite-lived intangible asset of $ 356,260 , and impairment of goodwill of $ 6,452,906 .
