Impairment of long-lived assets
−Removed: We evaluate long-lived assets on a quarterly basis to identify events or changes in circumstances (“triggering events”) that indicate the carrying value of certain assets may not be recoverable.
−Removed: Upon the occurrence
−Removed: of a triggering event, right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets, property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment and an impairment loss is recorded in the period in which it is determined that the carrying amount of
−Removed: the assets is not recoverable.
−Removed: The determination of recoverability is made based upon the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows of assets grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows independent of the cash flows
−Removed: of other groups of assets with such cash flows to be realized over the estimated remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group.
−Removed: The Company determined the lowest level of identifiable cash flows that are independent of other
−Removed: asset groups to be primarily at the individual store level.
−Removed: If the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows for a given store are less than the carrying amount of the related store assets, an impairment loss is determined by comparing the

−Removed: The impairment loss is then allocated across the asset group’s major classifications which in this case are operating lease assets and property and equipment.
−Removed: Triggering events
−Removed: at the store level could include material declines in operational and financial performance or planned changes in the use of assets, such as store relocation or store closure.

+Added: Other intangibles
All our intangible assets are definite-lived intangibles and are subject to amortization.
The weighted average amortization period is 15 years for trademarks and
−Removed: Amortization expense related to other intangible assets of less than $0.01 million in each of 2020, and 2019 was recorded in operating expenses, and non-compete intangible assets were fully amortized during 2019 upon the expiration of

+Added: Amortization expense related to other intangible assets was less than $ 0.01 million in each of 2021 and 2020 and was

Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, we estimate amortization expense to be less than $ 0.01 million annually over the next five years.
−Removed: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination.
−Removed: Goodwill is allocated across one reporting unit:
−Removed: Tandy Leather Factory.
−Removed: Goodwill is not

−Removed: At the reporting unit level, the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31 of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances,
−Removed: referred to as triggering events, indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable and that a potential impairment exists.
−Removed: Application of the goodwill impairment test requires exercise of judgement, including the estimation of future
−Removed: cash flows, determination of appropriate
−Removed: discount rates and other Level 3 assumptions (significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity).
−Removed: Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination
−Removed: of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for the reporting unit.
−Removed: On October 1, 2019, we elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) — Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment and applied the simplified accounting method as part of the Company’s annual goodwill impairment assessment as of December 31, 2019.
−Removed: We completed our annual goodwill impairment
−Removed: assessment as of December 31, 2019 using a quantitative Step 1 approach with the income approach methodologies discussed below.
−Removed: The discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model utilizes present values of cash flows to estimate fair value.
−Removed: Future cash flows were projected based on estimates of projected sales growth, store count, pricing, gross margin
−Removed: rates, operating expense rates, working capital fluctuations, income tax expense and capital expenditures.
−Removed: Forecasted cash flows took into account known market conditions as of December 31, 2019, and management’s anticipated business outlook.
−Removed: future cash flows were discounted using a market-participant risk-adjusted weighted average cost of capital for the reporting unit.
−Removed: A terminal year value was calculated under two approaches:
−Removed: (i) using an EBITDA exit multiple supported by guideline
−Removed: public company data using selected public companies operating within the retail industry and (ii) applying a perpetual growth rate methodology to the terminal year.
−Removed: These assumptions were derived from both observable and unobservable inputs and
−Removed: were combined to reflect management’s judgements and assumptions.
−Removed: The estimated fair values determined under both approaches above were consistent.
−Removed: The concluded fair value for the reporting unit was based on a 50/50 weighting of the two valuation approaches above.
−Removed: The results of
−Removed: the Step 1 impairment testing for goodwill resulted in the Company recognizing an impairment expense of $1.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2019, representing the entire balance of goodwill for the reporting unit.
Fair value of financial instruments
−Removed: We measure fair value as an exit price, which is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.
