Note 7 Goodwill, Customer Relationships and Other Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired in business combinations. For the purpose of presenting and measuring for impairment of goodwill, the Company has two reporting units: one that produces and markets bedding and diaper bags and another that produces and markets bibs, toys and disposable products. The Company measures for impairment annually as of the first day of the Company’s fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2025, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred in relation to the depressed market price of the Company’s common stock and corresponding significant decline in the Company’s market capitalization. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test.

 

The fair value of goodwill in each impairment test was determined using a combination of an income approach, which estimates fair value based upon projections of future revenues, expenses, and cash flows discounted to their respective present values, and a market approach. The valuation methodology and underlying financial information included in the Company’s determination of fair value required significant judgments by management. The principal assumptions used in the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis consisted of (a) long-term projections of financial performance and (b) the weighted-average cost of capital of market participants, adjusted for the risk attributable to the Company and the industry in which it operates. Under the market approach, the principal assumption included an estimate of a control premium.

 

Based on the goodwill impairment analysis performed, the Company determined that the estimated fair values of its reporting units were lower than their carrying value, indicating that the goodwill within these reporting units had been impaired. Consequently, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $13.8 million during the year ended March 30, 2025. The following table presents the carrying amounts of goodwill (in thousands):
