Note 6 – Goodwill, Customer Relationships and Other Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill:
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired by the Company in business combinations. The Company considers CCIP and Hamco to each be a reporting unit of the Company for the purpose of presenting and testing for the impairment of goodwill. The goodwill of the reporting units of the Company at April 3, 2016 and March 29, 2015 amounted to $24.0 million and is reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets net of accumulated impairment charges of $22.9 million, for a net reported balance of $1.1 million.
 
The Company tests the fair value of the goodwill, if any, within its reporting units annually as of the first day of the Company’s fiscal year. An additional interim impairment test must be performed during the year whenever an event or change in circumstances occurs that suggest that the fair value of the goodwill of either of the reporting units of the Company has more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of greater than 50%) fallen below its carrying value. The annual or interim impairment test is performed by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If such qualitative factors so indicate, then the impairment test is continued in a two-step approach. The first step is the estimation of the fair value of each reporting unit. If step one indicates that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, then a potential impairment exists, and the second step is then performed to measure the amount of an impairment charge, if any. In the second step, these estimated fair values are used as the hypothetical purchase price for the reporting units, and an allocation of such hypothetical purchase price is made to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets and assigned liabilities of the reporting units. The impairment charge is calculated as the amount, if any, by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds the implied amount of goodwill that results from this hypothetical purchase price allocation. The annual impairment test of the fair value of the goodwill of the reporting units of the Company was performed as of March 30, 2015 and the Company concluded that the fair value of the goodwill of the Company’s reporting units substantially exceeded their carrying values as of that date.
